LONDON, March 5.-The- Reuter- Tele-
gram Company has received the follow
ing from Pekin. dated March 9Th:
Inquiry concerning the reports OF
Emperor Kwang Su's return says assur-
ances from Chinese officials that he had
not the remotest intention TO leave sian
Flu while the present situation continued,
that, if the Powers persisted in fortify-
ing the legation quarters it was extremely
probable that he would not return to
Pekin.
The Chinese appeal regarding the latter
question points out that if forts arc con-
structed. five of the six chief boards,
namely, war. rites, civil appointments,
works and revenue, will be swept away,
as we'll as one of the most sacred tenn
pies in the empire, containing the ances-
trail tablets of the present dynasty.
Tho ministers of the Powers are still
discussing this appeal and the question
of defences, but have arrived at no de-
cision, owing to the divergence OF views.

EVIDENCE FIRST
Antitrust People Prepare to See
Knox.


Knox.
Special to The Journal.
Washington, Aug. 16.-The antitrust
party are resting on their oars for a few
days. 1t is their intention, as previously
stated in these dispatches, to make an
appeal to the attorney general of the
United States in behalf of the steel strik-
ers. They think that the Sherman anti
trust law is being grossly violated by the
steel trust; first, in its articles Of associ-
alton; and next, in the attitude which the
trust is maintaining towards its former
employees 1t had been their plan to take
the matter to the department of justice
early this week. but after consultation
by wire with former attorney general,
Frank S. Monnett of Ohio, who is to be
their spokesman, they have decided to Sc
cure all OF their evidence first An agent
Of the antitrust league has gone to
New Jersey, where he will get certified
copies Of the trusts articles of incorpora-
tion, charter etc, and another agent
is collecting evidence on the scene Of the
strike. This evidence will be ready
shortly, and then, their case being made
up, H. B. Martin and his associates say
they will visit the department of justice.
If Mr.. Knox declines to meet his visitors,
they will bring pressure to bear; and as
a last resort Mr. Martin says that con-
gress will be appealed to with a request
for impeachment.

CAN'T AFFORD TO DO 1T
President Hill Gives Reasons for
His Refusal.
Special to The journal.

Special to The Journal.
New York, Aug. 16.-James j. Hill.
president Of the Great Northern railway,
is back In his New York office to-day and
consented to discuss the request made
by the Pacific Coast Lumber Manufacture
ers' association for a 35c rate on COM
mon lumber to the Mississippi river and q
4Oc rate to Chicago. Although Victor H.
Beckman, secretary of the Pacific Coast
Lumber Manufacturers association somo
time ago addressed a letter to Mr.. Hill,
going very fully into the matter, and al
though strong committee Of represen-
tative Pacific coast lumbermen has been
appointed to press the request for the de-
sired rate Mr.. Hill said to-day that he
had not taken the matter up for consid-
GRAFTON and that he did not remember
having seen Mr.. Beckman's letter until
he saw it in print. According to Mr..
Hills idea the lumbermen of the Pacific
coast are now getting as low a rate as
they are entitled to. Mr.. Hill said:
1T is all very nice for the lumbermen
to speak OF what have done for the lum-
ber interests of the coast. When l went
out there they were paying 80 cents to the
twin cities and Lake Superior They told
me that they would be perfectly happy if
they could get rate of 60 cents.
looked into the matter and concluded that
they did not ask quite enough. l gave

after now. They are seeking a broader
market for their common lumber. There
Is no trouble about the fancy higher

market they are looking for 1 am in the
railroad business, however-not the lum1
ber business.
Now here. this letter says that the
lower rate would double their business.
We will assume that it would, but where
would there be any advantage in that
from a railroad standpoint? l haul the
lumber east now. How am I to get those
cars back west again? To give low rate
one way, it is necessary to haul a load
each way. There is no getting around it.,
if empty cars must be hauled one way the
freight the other way must pay for that
dead haul. There is not the business west,
to justify the putting in force OF very
low rate on lumber east The rate Is as
low now as it can be, and when the busi-

not be for from seven to ten years at
least.
HIPS Far-Sighted Policy.
In railroad circles the announcement
that President Hill will not grant the
demands of the west coast manufacturers
will cause little surprise. He builds for
the future. He knows that the east
must go to the coast some day for it's
lumber, and that the Great Northern will
get its share of the business when that
time comes. West coast lumber is to be
one of the future big revenue producers
for the Great Northern. But he is con-
ten to wait, for that means that the busi-
ness is sure at the full rate. Another
feature of the question is that cars used
in carrying white pine lumber can 5e
utilized for other products on the return
trip. Empty cars one way are a serious
drawback in the west coast lumber
traffic
One element in the situation is the fact
that most of the white pine manufacture
ers are large holders Of west coast tim
Der. There is a community of interest
among Mississippi valley manufacturers
which tends to protect them against west
coast competition. Their immense hold
ings on the coast make them prominent
factors in any problem that involves west
coast lumber. The Weyerhaueser syndi-
cate, which comprises many Of the manu-
facturers of Minnesota and Wisconsin out
side of the Minneapolis lumbermen, owns
100000 acres of the best timber in the
coast states. In addition to this the hold
ings Of the Minneapolis men and other
Mississippi valley men will aggregate an
other 100000 acres. 1t is not likely that
these people viii begin extensive opera
tions in west coast lumber until the white
pine production is greatly curtailed Un-
til then they will not be interested in a
lower rate into this market from the
coast. One of these men said to-day that
ten years from now the coast might expect
lower rate.
Over Production in the West.
With the coast manufacturers at the
present time it is simply a case Of over
production. The principal item that they
dimension, a trade which the white pine
men are glad to hand over to them. The
big timber is sawed from the center
square of the log. From all four sides
come big slabs which in themselves con-
tain as much common lumber as the Min
nesota log. 1t is the opportunity to use
the lumber in these slabs proftab1y that
the west coast man wants. Formerly he
burned the slabs, but latterly he has been
manufacturing them into lumber, with the
result that his stocks are immense and
seek market. He has worked hard for
trade in Montana and North Dakota, and
by making very low price has overcome
the situation to some extent But he has
made no money. In fact what he loses on
common lumber takes the edge off the
profit of many Of his big timber sales,
Therefore he seeks the assistance Of the
Morgan-Hill system of railroads in cam
paigning for a lower rate to the Missis-
sippi river and Chicago.

PROFIT-SHARING
Plan to Admit Employees to the Steel
Corporation.

New York, Aug. 16.-The Press says that
J. P. Morgan has planned the greatest
labor union of the age, a union of labor
and labor's ally-capital. According to
his plans, stock of the United States Steel
corporation, valued at several millions of
dollars at par, has been set aside for the
purchase at inside figures by the 165, 900
men employed by the companies that make
up the great steel trust. 1t is contem-
plated to form this o-partnership be-
tween the share holders and the employees
of the United States Steel corporation
The plan was conceived before the
strike was thought of and then it was
expected that 1t might be put in opera
tion in two years.
The Press also says that the plan
contemplated by the United States Steel
corporation is nothing more than a high
development Of the scheme that has pre-
vailed in the Carnegie plants since 1892.
