OPIUM AND TOBACCO
NEW TAXES PROPOSED ON
THESE BY CHINESE.
FOR RAISING INDEMNITY
Commission of Government Officials
Appointed to Investigate All Losses
Suffered by Observation-Disclosures
Incident Becoming Serious Matter
to Germans.

Pekin, May 22.-The governor OF the
province of Shansi, who is in favor OF
reform, has appointed commission OF
six government officials, one of whom
was educated in England, to lnvestl-
gate all the losses suffered by mis-
sionaries and to settle the claims OF
the people and afford relief to native
converts.
The former civil governor of Pekln
has been appointed treasurer OF the
province of Honan. He is noted
friend of Yung Lu, who exercises the
chief authority at the court at Singau
Flu.
Ii Hung Chang and Prince Ching
have recommended that the money to
pay the indemnities demanded by the
ministers be raised on the scheme pro-
posed of Viceroy Chang Chin Tung OF
Chang and Viceroy Liu Khan Yah OF
Nankin-that is, by imposing new
taxes on opium and tobacco. The
foreign ministers will certainly refuse
to permit metropolitan examinations
at Pekin, as this would affect the
scholars in the whole empire.
Mr.. Rockhill, the American special
commissioner, says this means more
to the Chinese than the payment OF
hundreds of thousands Of taels, as it
reaches the source of the majority OF
the anti-foreign disturbances. Ii
Hung Chang is trying to avoid the eft
feet of this on the Chinese. He will
memorabilia the government to prohl-
bit all examinations in the Chinese
classics for five years, and then to al
low examinations in western branches
of study. If this scheme is adopted
it may mean the initiation of most
desirable reform, but this action may
be weakened by some trick that will
offset its good effects.
London, Way 19.-The Ewo incident,
at Tientsin on May 4, when German

Washington, D. c., May 19. The

tered in the temple of agriculture at
the south gate of the forbidden city.
The force, which comprises Company
B, of the SIN infantry, will be under
Major Edgar B. Roberts, and the camp
quarters will be stocked with supplies
to last until December 81. Ammuni-
ton furnished to it includes 100000
rounds of rifle cartridges and 100
rounds of revolver shot for each au-
thorized weapon.

JAPAN TRADE SUFFERS.
Scarcity of Money and Unproductive
Works Cause Trouble.

Scarcity of Money and Unproductive
Works Cause Trouble.
London, May 22-The consular re
port of the foreign trade of Japan for
1900 emphasizes the baleful effect up
on trade of the scarcity of money and
the abnormal expenditure upon unpro-
ductive works, leading to an excess of
imports over exports amounting to
G8,500,000 and constant drain on
specie, which foreign loans could only
temporarily relieve.
The United States says the report
continues to encroach on spheres of
trade formerly considered under the
exclusive control of the united king
dom and other nations. Importation
of all raw cotton doubled in 1899, Civ
ing America the lead, while imports
from British India diminished one
half The report refers to the in
crease of imports of American kero-
sene and the great development of the
Echigo fields with American machin-
cry, largely under the auspices of the
Standard Oil company.
The consul attributes the success of
Americans to their willingness to ex-
tend their paints and rush orders to
meet Japanese demands.

washington, May 21.-ApproX1mate-
~ 20 900 machinists throughout the
country struck yesterday for a nine
hour day. a scale of wages equal to
the present ten-hour per day scale and
other demands. This is the rough
estimate of President O'Connell of the
National Association of Machinists,
based on Geographic adv1ces from
machinists headquarters in the yarl-
Gus cities. The strike thus far has
not extended to the allied trades, save
in one or two instances, as at Scfan-
ton. where the men in part OF the al
lied trades are out. No machlnlsts
engaged in government work are AZ
fected This is because the eight
hour day scale already prevails. RAN
road machinists as rule are not IN
voIved in the strike though men on
several roads are out. The situation
in the forenoon was summarized by
President O'Connell as follows:
eve are demanding a nine-hour
day universally throughout the trade,
with an increase of wages sufficient
to cover the loss of the hour in time;
regulation of the apprenticeship sys-
tenn and the number that shall be en-
ployed in accordance with the num-
her of journeymen employed; agree
ments as to arbitration of all disputes
that NAV arise in the future; the
right of machinists to be represented
bv committee and agreements that
there be absolutely no discrimination
adopted against machinists because
of their membership in the union.
From present indications and state
ments issued from headquarters at
various points the orders are being
generally obeyed, in larger numbers
than was anticipated. The number OF
firms signing indicates that in locall-
ties where agreements are being made
the strike may not last over few
DAYS. In other localities, where larger
number of men are being involved, |
look forward to an adjustment being
reached within the present week.
Telegraphic reports to President
O'ConneI show the following as the
number of firms which signed the
a&IG0mGuISs AClIOoAC1S A'AAAH 49,
kee, five; Wilmington, Del, two; To
ledo, one; Auburn, all; Anaconda, all;
z Denver ALL; st. Louis, all; New
Dreams, all; Danbury, all; Pittsburg,
80 per cent; Franklin, all; Youngs-
town, all; Cleveland, fifteen; Roches-
ter, 80 per cent; Buffalo, SO per
cent; Niagara Falls, all; Tonawanda,
all; Trenton, rs per cent; Baltimore,
eleven; Philadelphia twenty-five; New
Haven, eight. These establishments
having conceded the demands, their
men are at work as usual.
Frisco Workmen Quit.
San Francisco, May 21-Five hun
dren union machinists and other iron
trade workmen affiliated with them
quite work in this city yesterday. Il
is expected that 1000 men will joir
the strike as soon as they are ordered
to do so by their respective nationa
directors. Among the latter are the
iron molders and core makers. o.
1000 men employed at the Union
Iron works, $500 went out. At the
Risdon Iron works of $50 men only 81
remain. At the Fulton Iron works
there were about 500 workmen in al
but 100 quit.
