GROSS CRIMINAL NEGLECT.
Awful Charges Preferred Against Attendants at Cunning In
 sane Asylum.

Chicago, Nov. 9.-Strong evidence to show that Mrs. Kate Green and Miss May Shay, attendants at Cunning, had neglected and underfed seven insane women committed to their care at diff ferent times during the last two years was presented to the county civil service commission at hearing of the charges against the two women yesterday.
 Testimony was given to show that two of the patients died last Septem- Der, immediately after long course of underfeeding and neglect. Other testimony detailed the cases of five women who, during 1900, had been removed by the physician from the same ward, at that time presided over by Mrs. Green, in order that they might be placed where they would be properly nourished. One of these patients, it was claimed, had died of scurvy, which she contracted in the institution on account of neglect. The trial will be continued to-day.

UNCLE SAM IS WILLIN'.
Especially as the Action of France Will Establish a Very Handy
 Precedent.

Washington, Nov. 9.-The answer of the United States to the French re- specting Frances movement in Turk ish waters is understood to have been conveyed already by Secretary Hay to M. Margerie, the French charge here, and to have consisted of a statement that the United States gov ernment is not concerned immediately in the republics doings, in view of the French statement that it was not proposed to affect our trade interests unfavorably.
 It is surmised, also, that our gov ernment is not dissatisfied at the es- tablishment by France of a precedent for the collection of indemnities from Turkey.

France Has Scored a Complete Tri- umph by Her Prompt Ac-

TURKEY YIELDS TO ENTIRE DEMANDS.
Ax Soon as the Sultan Issues an Trade Ratifying the eDecisiOn the French Squadron Will be Withdrawn From Turkish Waters at Mity- Iene.

Paris, Nov. 9.-France has scored a complete triumph in the Turkish dis pute. The foreign office, Friday morning, received advices announcing that the sultan has yielded to the en- tire demands formulated by the French government, and only the question of form regarding the en- agreements remains to be settled. This may be done within the next "A hours, or, it is expected, at the latest, in two or three days. Then Admiral Caillard will relinquish his occupation of the island of Hitylene.
 An official note was issued at 1 p. m., Friday, to the effect that the porte had decided to yield to all the demands of France, and that as soon as the sultan has issued an trade rati- flying the decision, the French squad- ron will leave Mitylene.
 President Loubet presided at the cabinet council. The foreign minis ter, M Delcasse. arnot need that the porte had just advised him that it had decided to give satisfaction in the case of the various French demands, to which M. Delcasse replied that so soon as the sultan's order regarding the porte's decision was communi- cated to him, Admiral Caillard's squadron would leave the island of Mitylene.
 The Tempts prints a dispatch from Constantinople which says that the sultan, in accepting the French de- mands, firstly authorizes the working of the French schools, hitherto unrec- ognized; second, he recognizes, off cially, the existence Of the religious and hospita ble institutions already founded, and accords them customs immunity and exemption from cer- tain taxes, and thirdly, he authorizes the reconstruction of the schools and hospitable institutions destroyed at the time of the Armenian troubles of " hch detailed list is attached to the French note.

Don't Pay for Another,s Dinner

''Order what you want; pay for what won order," is the unique way in which the Lackawanna Railroad is advertising it's new dining-car service. The aptness of the phrase is apparent when it is understood that the traveller may order from the most complete menu, and yet pay for nothing he does not want. In addition, low priced club meals are are served individually from 35 cents to $l00, so that table d'hote and Ia carte features are virtually combined. Ali through trains to Buffalo, Chicago and St
 Louis are equipped with dining cars, and the service is admitted to be second to none in the world -S

OLE EARL LIS SUCCESSOR.
Yuan Shi Kai Succeeds Ii Hung Chang as Viceroy of the Province of
 China.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Yuan Shi Kai, who succeeds Ii Hung Chang as vice. roy of Chi Ii, is the best appoint ment that could have been made from all China, according to MT. Rockhill, the special commissioner of the Unit ed States to Pekin. He is about 45 years of age, and came originally from the province of Human, where he began his public career as a mili- tary officer. He has made minister to Corea, and for many years ably defended Chinese interests in that troubled country. As governor of Shan Tung he showed surprising abil- ity in tranquilizing that dangerous province, while his gift for diplomacy was exercised fully in preventing fric- tion between the turbulent population of the peninsula and the Germans, when the latter were steadily en- croaching from their original hold ings at Kiao Chow on the north coast. AS a military man, Yuan showed his ability by the organiza- tion of what is undoubtedly the best military force in China, and they were his troops that occupied Pekin last September when the foreign forces were withdrawn. They are thorough 1y disciplined and we'll officered. and considering Chinese conservatism, they form a magnificent display of Yuan's ability.
 Wang Wen Shao, who is made dep uty viceroy of Chi Li, is also a man of marked ability. Fortunately, he always has been friendly to foreign ideas, and is not reactionist. He was one of the grand secretaries of state, and is at present one of the two ministers appointed to form the new Chinese foreign office, which will replace the tsung Ii yameu

Dr. Louis L. Seaman Talks About the Great Chinese States
 man Just Deceased.
WAS 4 VERITABLt GIANT IN STATURE.
His Neither limbs, However, Fro" Want of Use in Ordinary Exercise, Were UndeVeIOped and Thtn-Ah Incident that Won old LIS Friendship.

New York, Nov. 9.-One of the most intimate friends of Lii Hung Chang in this country is Dr. Louis h. Seaman, of this city. Dr. Seaman who was formally surgeon in the United States army, serving in Porto Rico and the Philippines, spent con- siderable time in China during the war of 1899. So close lid the army surgeon approach the distinguished Chinaman. owing to friendship be- tween the doctors father and Earl Ii that at one time he was invited to accept of the hospitality of the vice. roys palace "for a year,
 Speaking of the earfs last illness, Dr. Seaman said:
 "When I said good bye to Earl Ll, last March, I did not expect that he was so soon to leave his people. He was a very old man and had been sufferer from stomach trouble-dys- pesia and indigestion-an his life. This was principally because he took little or no exercise. In China it Is against the dignity of man to be seen walking, and about all the walk ing Lii did was to and from his sedan chair. I tried to argue him into the idea that, for the sake of his health, he must take walks or other eXer- else, but in this respect he could not be reformed.
 'T do not believe that Lii would have died had Dr. Mark been in at- tendance as usual. Dr. Mark is an exceedingly able physician. But at the time of Lis death he was away with Prince Chuan, who went to Ger many to apologize to the Germans. Iii, when left alone, rarely took any care of himself, and it was only by constant vigilance on the part of Dr. Mark that he was kept alive to the ripe old age that he was permitted to attain.
 ''In stature Ii Hung Chang was a veritable giant. His physique was splendid, all except his legs, which were undeveloped and thin for want of exercise
 "The incident which brought us to- gether closer than ever before when we were discussing the rights of the United States to the Philippines, Iii arguing that, by right, the islands be- lonsed to China Finally ne said that he wanted to know what right the United States had more than any other robber to enter the islands. answered him briefly, calling his at tention the efforts of Russia, England, Germany, France and Italy to split China, and said:
 CT should think, your excellency, you had enough bad eggs in your own basket without wishing for another country that is steeped in war The answer he liked, and from that mo- ment he became even more than ever a charming host"
