JEWS FAST MIGRATING.
Within Last Three Months Four Thouss
 nnd Have Left Koumnnia.

London, Sept. 18.-In dispatch from Bucharest, Roumania, dated Sunday, September IA, a correspondent of the Daily Express says the emigration fev- CT among the Jews of Roumania still continues, and that within the last three months four thousand Jews have left the country.
 Tonight, the correspondent goes on, a party of three hundred and fifty left for Canada and the United States, and small parties of Jews leave the larger towns of the country almost daily. AL though the reason given by the emi- grants for leaving is their inability to obtain work, the Jews steadily refuse to take up farm labor, Proof of this is found in the fact that within the last three years Roumania has paid for out side Bulgarian labor something like $3,- 900, 900, which might have gone to the Jews if they would only turn their hands to the light labor of harvesting.
 Bulgarian la aborers, the correspondent concludes, are well houses and excel lently fed while working on Roumanian farms.

GOING TO REPLACE FRIARS
TWO AMERICAN PRIESTS OR-
 DERED TO THE PHILIPPINES.
Important Step Announced at Villa Nova College by Rev. Thomas Rodri- guez, of ROme-Rev. Daniel J. O. O'Mahoney and Rev. J. E. McErlaine Named to Go to the Islands.

Named to Go to the Islands.
 Philadelphia, Sept. 18.-An important step toward the solution of the troubles in the Philippine Islands caused by the presence of the Spanish friars there was taken to-day at Villa Nova college, when Rev. Thomas Rodriguez, of Rome, prior general of the Augustinian order throughout the world, announced that Rev. Daniel J. o. O'Mahoney. of Ando- yer, Mass, and Rev. J. E. McErlaine, of Villa Nova, had been ordered to the Philippines as pioneers in the movement of American priests to those islands to succeed the Spaniards. The two priests will leave for Manila within the next two weeks and will be followed in a short time, it is believed, by several other American Augustinians,
 The announcement was made during the celebration of the Feast of St. Thomas, patron of Villa Nova, which was observed with impressive exer- cises.
 At o'clock this morning high mass was celebrated by Prior General Rodri- quez, and at II o'clock a reception was rendered to the distinguished Augustin- ian. The American provincial, Rev. Martin J. Geragty, delivered an address of welcome on behalf of the American province
 The prior general in replying to the welcome, among other things, said: Throughout all time the governments of the world have appealed to the sov- ereign pontiff as a peace-maker. The American government has appealed to him, and rightly so, to settle the trou- bles in the Philippines.
 We have no fear of the outcome. Prejudice and cant must be put aside and the facts only considered. God fearing men will do right and justice. unfortunately, nearly all the state ments furnished from abroad to the American press on the friar question are filled with calumny and mendacity ] with regard to the friars in the islands. We do not blame the Philippine com mission for any opinion that body holds, for we know the information furnished to it was mainly obtained from our enc mies-men who have stopped at noth- ing to villify and malign our brothers.
 q speak not as one who does not know the conditions in the Philippines. speak with a personal knowledge of the priests and the people, A banquet was held in the afternoon, and tonight the students rendered the prior general a reception.

TO SUCCEED HENDERSON.
Convention 10 be Held September 25 10
 Nominate a Man.

Dubuque, Iowa. Sept. 1S.-The repub- lican congressional committee of the Third district met here to-day and de- cided to call convention at New Hampton, Iowa, September 25, to con- sist of the delegates to the convention which nominated Colonel Henderson, to nominate candidate to succeed him.
 This action was taken after consid- eration of the Iowa election law. Be- fore acting the members of the com- mittee called upon Colonel Henderson and requested him to consider his with drawal He declined to do so, stating his decision was final.
 Before adjourning the following res- olution was adopted: Tt is with deep regret that we find ourselves compelled to reconvene the delegates of this dis trict for the purpohe of naming can~ didate for election to represent this dis trict in the nationtl house of represent atives. This is especially true when We realize that the necessity of such action is caused by the refusal of our present member to accept the nomination here tofore rendered him unanimously by a convention called. In his declination we fee! that we lose an able, capable leader of great worth and national prominence, such as can be attained only by one of sturdy character, un- usual natural ability and ripened expe- rience in the field of statesmanship. We part with him as leader with re- luctance. While thus compelled to re- lease Speaker Henderson, we do so with no feeling that the selection of his suc- cessor will be without merit, or that there will result any danger as to the result to the republicans of this district in the coming election

Washington, Sept. 1S.--China is on the verge of another Boxer uprising, ac- cording to mail advices received at the state department from Minister Conger, due principally to extortionate taxa tion, combined with resentment. against the presence of missionaries, thus jus tifying the judgment of the department of state, which pointed out to the pow CTS that the demand for excessive in demnities would result in serious inter nal troubles in China.
 MT. Conger's first advice bears date of August 6, from Pekin, and he re- ports serious anti-foreign riots near Chentu, in the province of Sce-Ch' Jan, in which a number of native Christians had been massacred and chapels de- stroyed. MT. Conger appears to have acted upon telegraphic complaints from pr. Canright, an American medical missionary at Chentu, not only ad- dressing the Chinese foreign office by letter, but calling there in person to i'm press upon the officials the importance of immediate action, and finally suc- ceeding in causing the removal of the local Chinese officials who had failed to repress the riots and preserve life and property.
 Mir Conger inclosed the communica- tion between himself. Dr. Canright and the foreign office. pr. Canright tele- graphed: "Svechuan repeating nine teen hundred. Chapel burned, ten Christians killed. Boxers multiplying four months; officials taxed"
 MT. Conger addressed note to Prince Ching at the foreign office, stating that immediate provisions be taken to stamp out these troubles at their incep- ton.
 Prince Ching enclosed, in answer. a copy of the following imperial edict:

 Achieve Nothing to Alleviate the
 DOwn.Frodden People ofIIis Country.
 London, Sept. 19.-The Vienna corre- spondent of The Standard says the note of the United States with regard to the treatemnt of Jews in Roumania has been communicated to the powers which are parties to the treaty of Berlin and European governments like Austria Hungary, which has looked on and done nothing, have been placed thereby in a somewhat humiliating position.
 "I am afraid, however," cables the correspondent, that the result of Amer ica's action will be nil. What King Charles of Roumania, just and hu- mane sovereign could not achieve; what number of ministries, conserva- tive, liberal and unionist, have attempt ed in vain; what even the Jewish bank CTS of Frankfort-on-the-Mai Berlin, and Vienna, who several years ago re- fused to deal in Roumanian securities when Roumania urgently needed a for eign loan, have not been able to bring about, namely. justice to the Jews in the country the note of the United States is extremely unlikely to effect, however well meant.
 The grievance of the Roumanian Jews is not restricted to the new arti- sans act, which comes into force to- morrow, because official interpretation of the act, which was issued simultane- ously in the form of an administrative decree, removed the principal objection from the point of view of the Rouma- nian Jews namely, that those whose grandfathers were born in the country and who themselves lost their former nationality without being allowed to &C., quire that of Roumania, should have to prove reciprocity in their former countries or else be obstructed in their trades and occupations.
 What still remained in the new act," the correspondent goes on, Ito which objection might be taken applies to for eigners in general; namely, that pref erence is to be given in the case of all public and municipal works to the value of $6, 900 to Roumanian citizens, if their tenders are not higher than those
