GENERAL YUNC LII NERVOUS
Suspicious That Foreigners Are Plan.
ming to Punish Him and
Dowager Empress.

Pekin, Jan. 2.-Several recent oc-
%currences tend to discourage hope
that the dowager empress had learn
ed the lesson of reform from events of
the past year. Foreigners are dispos-
ed to take a pessimistic view of the
outlook.
The fact that Yung Lu has determ-
ined to organize two anti-foreign army
corps, to Offset the commands of pro
foreign Chinese leaders is particular
ly disquieting and is evidence of the
continued domination of his influence
which is bitterly anti-foreign. r
Other incidents which are consider
ed significant are the suppression of
the only independent newspaper in
this city by order of the governor of
Pekin, and the closing of the indus
trial school here, recently organized
by philanthropic Chinese, also by the
governors order. This school a
intended for the training of destitute
youths.
Other liberal Chinese will hesitate
now to give practical vent to their
theories, fearing the displeasure of
oficialdom.
The third edict regarding the recent
murder of a Belgian priest (near
Ningh Shan Foo in Kan 500 province)
has appeared. 1t appoints a special
official to punish those who are guilty
of the crime and reafirms the dow
ager empress good will toward
Christians. This unusual action on
the part of the court, in furnishing
those guilty Of anti.Christian outrages
Is taken as evidence of the dowager
empress desire to %concilitate the pow
ers upon the eve of the return of the
court to Pekin.
Proofs accumulate that Prince
Ching's arguments pursuaded the
dowager empress to trust herself with
In the range of the legation forts. Of
tcials arriving here describe the dow
ager empress and General Yung Lu,
as being extremely nervous and sus-
picious lest the foreigners are plan
ming to entrap them after their ar
rival and punish them for encouraging
boxerism.
Foreigners will probably view the
courts re-entry into Pekin from the
wall near the legations.

Y. M. c. A. JUBILEE FUND.
Subscriptions Were $78e,75o On New
Years Day.

New York, Jan. Although the Of
flee of the international commission of
the Y. M. c. A. in this city was kept
open all day, no contributions to the
million dollar jubilee endowment fund
were received. The total amount re-
manned at $7s9,75O. The Rev. Richard
c.. Morse of the international commit
tee said tonight that he had hopes that
tomorrows' mail might bring sub
scriptions that would complete the
fund. Of the amount subscribed, full
ly $500, 600 is conditional on a million
being raised by January l.. Subscrip-
lions sent in letters that had been
mailed before January 1 could be in
cluded in the fund and that leaves a
bare chance that the million may be
raised.

CHARGE OF AFFAIRS.
COMPANY IS SOLVENT
Owns Numerous Electric Roads and
Telephone Lines Which Are Cap
itaIized at $4,000, 900.

Cleveland, o., Jan. 2.-The financial
affairs Of the Everett-Moo syndicate,
owning or controlling a number of
urban and interurban electric rail
ways and an extensive system Of local
and long distance telephone lines in
Ohio AZ Michigan. a i int tho
control Of a commute. composed of
" prominent banke.. IS of this city
today. This action was taken, it is
stated, as the result of a temporary
financial embarrassment on the part of
the syndicate, which has for some
time past been affected by the strin-
gency in the money market.
The committee chosen has been at
work Investigating the affairs of the
syndicate and express a firm belief
that the concern is entirely solvent
and that it's embarrassment will be
only temporary. The Everett-Moore
syndicate is accredited with control
and interurban electric lines in Ohio
and Michigan, with many new extern
sions still in course of construction.
Among the telephone properties
owned outright or controlled by the
syndicate are the Cuyahoga Telephone
company of this city, with upwards of
10000 subscribers; United States Tel
ephone company, (long distance);
Federal Telephone company; Stark
County, Ohio, Telephone company;
Columbia County, Ohio, Telephone
company; Peoples Telephone COM
pany, of Detroit; Wood County, Ohio,
Telephone company, and a number of
others in which the Federal Telephone
company is the controlling factor.
Among the more important electric
street railroad properties in which
the syndicate is largely interested are
the Cleveland Electric Railway com
pany; Detroit United Railway COM
pany; Toledo Railway & Light com
pany; Northern Ohio Traction com
pany; Cleveland, Paynesville & East
ern Railway company; Detroit & To-
ledo Short Line Railroad company,
and Lake Shore Electric Railroad
company. All of these lines are de-
clared by the committee to be with
scarcely an exception, in good paying
condition, perfectly solvent and no
wise embarrassed.
The aggregate capitalization of all
the various properties owned or con-
trolled by the syndicate is said to be
about $3.50, 900, 600.

New York, Dec. 31.-Jules Cambon,

Ambassador Cambon said on his ar

Perfect friendship exists between
us in all matter. Why not have a
treaty that will permit of a fair inter

people of the United States to answer
yes

that the rights Of one of our citizens

DAUGHTERS OF FRANCE.

IL is an interesting fact that some
half dozen women have the right TO
wear the French military medal Fore
most among them comes Mile. Dodu.
who also is a member of the Legion of
Honor. Mile. Dodu served her country
by tapping the telegraph wire worked
by the Prussians and so obtained val
liable information for the use of the
French generals.
Another lady decorated with the mil
itary medal is Mime. Renon. who in the
war OF 1901 threw up her work as an
artist and devoted herself to nursing
her wounded countrymen. Twice she
was under fire and in one engagement
she was wounded.
Others OF the brave women who wear
the military medal were decorated for
similar acts of devotion. but Mime. Lau-
rim. who has no less than five medals
actually fought as a soldier in the
rank of the Third regiment of zouaves
Twice she was taken prisoner and
twice she escaped. Then. as now, her
appearance was probably somewhat
masculine. a fact which stood her in
good stead when patriotism led her TO
conceal her sex that she might fight for
her beloved country.
