C. T. u women, and on the other by
Mrs. John SchilIing. wife of the man
ager of the saloon wrecked yesterday,
who was backed by a dozen women who
championed the saloons. was enacted
here. today.
As a result Mrs. Nation swore out
warrants against Mrs SchiIling and her
husband and Mrs. William Buttner,
charging them with assault, and Mayor
Hoffman swore out a warrant against
Mrs. Nation charging her with disturb
ing the peace. All were arrested and
taken before Judge z. b. Holt. They
were released on bond.
The fracas was started by Mrs. Schil-
ling. AT 10 o'clock this morning Mrs.
Nation, in company with Mrs C. B.
Hoffman and some other w. G. T. u.
leaders. entered a store two doors away
from William Shocks saloon, which IS
still unmolested. Mrs. Nation, appar-
emily to give him warning that she
would attack his place, sent for Shook.
He complied. but before many werds
were exchanged between the two she
was assaulted by a crowd of women,
partisans of the saloons who had or
ganized since last nights raid and had
been awaiting today's threatened de-
struction Of saloon property. A general
fight between the women ensued, during
which a woman heavily veiled rained
blow after blow upon Mrs. Nation with
a horsewhip. Men drawn to the scene
became interested spectators, but offered
no aid to either side. Quiet was re-
stored only when the police interfered.
Mrs. Nation was badly bruised
The men are taking no part in the
controversy aside from encouraging the
women on their respective sides and to
furnish bail when arrests are made.

tary of the Chinese reform association
of Canada and the United States. to the
powers most directly interested in the
Chinese troubles. The feature of the
document is the agreement that if the

various nations.
Pelin, Jan. 24.-The note which ac-
conpanfed the agreement delivered by

diate return Of the public buildings and
the total cessation of military expcdi-
tions, the desire for a definition of the
limits of the legations. also a desire for
the removal of the troops as early as
possible.
The German and French officials
