MOVEMENT PLANNED.


Peklng, Feb. 1s.-A few days ago
Count Won Waldersee wrote to the
generals under his supervision noti-
Tying them to have oil their available
troops ready in. two weeks for an ex-
petition lasting 80 days. Sunday Gen.
chahee and Gen. Voyron, the French
commander, received letters asking
1or their cooperation and expressing
desire to know what forces they
can spare.
Ere long an announcement is ex-
pected that the destination of the pro-
posed expedition is Sian Flu. The for
e'gn ENJOYS believe it's object to be
TO compel the Chinese to accept the
terms OF the powers. 1t is thought
that when it becomes known that the
expedition has started the imperial
court. will hasten to comply with all
the demands of the joint note. The
military are much elated over the
prospect of active service.
Washington, Feb. 19.-It is said un-
equlvocally by competent authority
that the American military forces
under no circumstances will partici-
pate with the Germans in the pro-
posed expedition to the interior of
China, and although it cannot be
learned that Gen. Chaffee has yet re-
ceived instructions to that effect, he
undoubtedly will have them very
shortly.
London, Feb. 19.-The Berlin CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail claims to
have official authority to deny that
it is seriously intended to send any
expedition into the interior of China.
He claims that Count Won Waldersee
is trying to expedite the negotiations
by ''bluffing."
London, Feb. 21.-Dr. Morrison,
wiring to the Times from Picking
Wednesday, says: "The court has
yielded and consented to the infic-
ton of the punishment demanded, pc
titioning, however, that the sentences
on Chao Shu Chiao and Ying Men
may be strangulation instead of de-
capitation. To this the foreign en-
voys have agreed. The question,
therefore, is virtually settled, and a
raison d'etre for the Tai-Yuen-Fu ex-
petition ceases to exist"

DEALING WITH CRIMES IN
CANADA.

From the Chtcago-Times Herald on jan
uary 18th, 1901.
1.-THE citizens of the Dominion of
canada have just cause to be proud
OF their record as law-abiding people.
Inc annual report of the criminal
statistics of the Dominion, which has
population of over 5000, 900, shows
That there were only twenty-five in
alctments for murder in 1899, of
which only two were left without,
final action. Eleven of those indicted
were hanged, nine acquitted and
three confined as insane.
Canada is country of vast proper.
tions. Its people are scattered over
a wide stretch of territory, making
police surveillance particularly diff
cult and in many districts impossi-
bic. Yet city like New York or
Chicago alone furnishes far greater
criminal list every year than the
whole vast stretch of territory from
Quebec to Vancouver.
1.-The Canadians ascribe their i'm
| m,nity from crime to the prompt
ness with which punishment is
meted out to offenders. When man
is caught red-handed in the act of
| robbing another he is not released on
straw bail by some justice of the
peace from the slums, to go out and
repeat the offense. Sharp and sure
| justice is meted out to criminals of
all kinds, the result being that when
the guardians of the public peace
succeed in bringing thug to the bar
they are seldom called upon to hunt
him second time.
Furthermore there are few court
| delays in Canada when criminal is
brought to book. They have no
Dreyer cases over there. There are
no methods whereby Canadian GRIM
inals can have the proceedings stayed
from month to month and from year
to year or after being convicted, ap-
peal from one court to another until
witnesses die of old age or opportun-
tiles for corruption can be found.
''Nor does this swift method of
treating with wrong-doers in Canada
leave the innocent unable to proper
~ defend themselves. They have all
the opportunities and privileges that
our own laws extend to them. The
extent to shield the guilty is lacking
that is all.''
The above taken from the editorial
column of the Times-Herald gives
some idea of the immunity from
crime that exists in Canada, and this
is one of the many inducements held
out for Americans to settle in the
district known as Western Canada.
The season of 1901 will see few Sec
tions of the country opened up for
settlement. They are attractive in
every respect. 1t is understood that
| one of the best Indian Reserves in
the famous Valley of the Saskat-
chewan will be opened up this year,
and an invitation is extended to those
desiring homes to make inquiries.
The price of the land is said to be
nominal. Besides these lands, the
several railway companies have lands
| to sell; also the Government. For
| particulars write to the Agent of the
Government, whose advertisement
appears elsewhere.
