"Mere HONOR

1t is in the nature of the human
mind that constant dwelling upon ma
terial grandeurs induces a belief in the
primacy of wealth. and in the right
eousness of means by which wealth is
gained, 1t was very recently that a
statesman exclaimed, in hot elo-
quence. and in response to one who
urged fair play to Cuba: "You are on
dangerous ground, sir; in your talk.
about mere honor, you are likely to for
get our business reputation" Henry
LOOMS Nelson, in Century.

AN APPEAL BY CHINA
Good Offices of the United
States Invoked.
China Asks That the Allied Powrrs Withdraw
Their Troops From lien Tsin Accord
ing 10 Agret ment.
(By the Associated Press.)

Washington, July 5.-The Chinese Gov
ernment has appealed to the Government
of the United States to use it's good
offices to cause the allied powers who
still retain their soldiers in Tien Tsin,
to avacuate that place in conformity
with the spirit of the agreement Of
Pekin. which settled the Boxer troubles.
The appeal was made today by Minister
WI directly to Secretary Hay in the
shape of a cablegram from Viceroy Yuan
Shih-Kai of Chi Ii, which the minister
supplemented with a long verbal ex-
PLANTATION.
I'm the final protocol signed by the
different powers there is no stipulation
that a supplementary convention will
be made in regard to the restoration of
Tien Tsin. But the foreign military Off
GERS at Tien Tsin have arbitrarily given
rise to fresh complications and drawn
up many articles limiting to 800 the
number of Chinese guards to. be station
ed at Tien Tsin within the limit of 80
kilometers. Since the brigands in the
vicinity of Tien Tsin, on account of loot
ing of the arsenals in 1900 are generally
well armed, it would be impossible for
such a small force to suppress and punish
brigandage; much less can it police the
city and vicinity and preserve order gen
orally The military officers appear to
be willing to restore the city, but in
reality they wish to delay; there is rea-
son to fear that their action is not by
any means for the public good The. for
eign ministers at Peking do not approve
their action and they have repeatedly
demonstrated with them hut tho mill
tary officers have not been willing to
come to an agreement. The ministers
and officers each hold to their own opir
ions, which greatly impede the progress
of our affairs. 1 request you to ask the
Government of the United States to con-
suit with the. other governments so that
instructions may be sent to the different
military officers direct, ordering them to
accede to the suggestions of the foreign
ministers 10 the end that the restora-
tion may not be further DELAYED"
The author OF this message. Yuan Kat
has taken inc place OF The late ii HING
Chang to a large extent in dominating
Chinese foreign policies. and the United
states Government is the more disposed
TO heed his appeal because OF his ex-
cellent conduct during the Boxer up
rising.

Especial to the News and Obseryer)
Durham. n. c., July 5.-The game this
afternoon between Raleigh and Durham
was forfeited to the locals nine to moth
ing The trouble occurred in the first
inning. Raleighm, first at bat, retired

out when Crane, of the locals, came UP.
He struck at one ball and the next over
the umpire called strike one" A kick

ordered TO his bench. but refused to go.
Finally the umpire gave them the time
limit and called the game.
AS to facts Kahn was right in his con-
tentions, but the spectators were dis
gusted with the baby act played by the
visitors The umpire would not change
his decision and the game should have
been played out

A Hot Discussion.

Especial to the News and Observer
Wilmington, n. c., July 5.-A special
to the Star says there was a hot dis
cussion in the Cumberland County Dem
ocratic Convention today between Hole
and anti-Hale elements over the ques-
tion of minority representation in the
Congressional convention, the former
contending that each county could adopt
its own rules, while the latter insisted
that the State plan of organization
should govern the appointment OF uele
gates to the Confr, ,sionaI convention.
On test vote the convention decided in
favor of the Hale proposition by so to
80. n. A. Sinclair offered resolution
instructing for Hale. l.. a. Williamson
moved as substitute that the oonyen-
tion ballot for candidates for Congress
and placed in nomination john ID. Bel
lamy. This was lost by 10 to 80 and the
resolution to instruct for Hale adopted
by the same vote. The minority filed
protests and gave notice of a cent st
before the Congressional convention.

(Hy The Associated Press.)

Wilkesbarre, Pa, July 5.-The move
raent OF empty coal cars along the rail-

cral OF the collieries in the REGION indi-
cate to the strikers that an effort II to
he made in few days to start Scrs at
some of the collieries. The operators
assert that :hey have sufficient men
under enga &c mcnt, both returned strikers
and imported men, to man several of the
collieries.
While they will not admit that work
may be resumed next week there is a
general belief that the eifort will be
made. In the Hazelton region the Par
dees are expected to mass men at the
Harwood colliery which, being on the
outskirts of the region. is in less danger
of attack than a mine in the heart OF
the district. and the coal can be ship
ped from it without being sent past 4

uated at the edge CT the Wyoming taBii
and It's output goes oyer tho Pcansyl

1t is also stated that from the Wyo-

indicates that some move is about 10 be
made
The Delaware and Hudson and the Le-
high Valley Companies are also busy
with preparations which make It appear
as if at a time understood by the opera
tors each company viii try to break the
strike.
The officials of the Union. cognizant of
what is being done, are busy. Pickets
are watching the mines, a1d all moves
are reported to headquarters, and If any
effort is made to gather men the strikers
will endeavor by large picket committees
ito see them before they go to work and
dissuade thom. In the Ilazelton region
they turned many back this TnOIning, an
especially strong picket line being estab-
lished about the Drfton colliery of the
Coke Bros. & Co., where tho building of
strong barhed wire stoekade backed
with barriers yesterday, tends clear to
the belief that an effort is to be made
there to resume work.

BRIGHT CROP PROSPECTS AND
LARGE FALL TRADE EXPECTED.
Warehousemen Sending Out Circulars Advis

ings, Because of High Prices.

Especial to the News and Observer
Winston, n. c.. July 5.-The recent
good seasons have improved the crop
prospects in this section wonderfully aid
if no disaster occurs they will be as
good as they have been in many years
The warehousemen here are, sending
out circulars advising the farmers 10
cure their priming-as tobacco is selling
so high it will pay them to cure and
thus save what has long been thrown
away. One warehouselnaI told me that
such primings cured would more than
pay fertilizer bills. The bright pros
poets for crops is causing the wholesale
people here to book larger and more or
ders than for years. I found Marks &
Dalton busy filing 5000 order from the
State of Wilkes AMI 81 200 order from
