Special Cdbre Despatch 10 THE Sun.
PEKIN. Oct. 24.-Prince Ching has recog-
nized his mistake In agreeing 10 the Ger
man stipulations In regard to the with
drawal Of German troops from Shan ghai
and has devised a modified plan. The
original German agreement was 80 worded
that It made highlands rights In the Yam gtse
Valley subject TO her military evacuation
Of Shanghai. Prince Ching's modified
plan provides that the Yangtse Valley and
all Chinese territory shall be declared not
subject TO the alienation Of preferential
rights. 1t Is understood that the English
do not object to this scheme. The Germans
are jubilant. while the Chinese are COM
pletely muddled. and a solution OF the
question Is doubtful.
The Chinese have made no progress In the
matter Of Furnishing the officials who were
responsible for the murders Of the English
missionaries Bruce and Lewis. in Honan
province. Several ignorant Chinese who
had nothing to do with these crimes were
beheaded and the real culprits were not
molested. Sir Ernest Satow, the British
Minister, had a stormy conference wit IN

LONDON, Oct, Accommodating on the
decision Of the Tubes Committee Of the
House Of Commons against the Morgan
syndicate in the matter Of the bill OF the
Piccadilly. City and Northeastern Railway,
the Pail Mall Gazette to-day aniInadverts
strongly on the methods Of C. r. Yerkes
The paper says:
IT remains TO be seen whether Parliament
will allow itself to be fooled In such a bare
faced manner. There is. fortunately, not
the slightest reason why the House OF
Commons should not reconsider its decision
and treat the scheme az whole in the light
OF new developments, The Morgan group
IL quite prepared TO take over that portion
OF the line dropped out. and there are very
strong reasons why Mr.. Morgan should
be allowed to do so.
IF. on the other hand, the methods OF
Mr. Yerkes and his friends are to be con-
doned and encouraged by permitting their
singular manpuvres to be successful. the
decisions of Parliament will be reduced to
a sham and no scheme will BE- safe from
the financial tricks Of rival who is resolved
TO defeat II at any cost.
1T is sincerely to he hoped, therefore.
that the House will not allow mere red
tape obstacles to stand in tho way Of re-
committing the Piccadilly and Northeastern

the Legislature so that he could pass a

A woman, a s'enographer in a Philadel-

tho arrest Of Frank e. Byrnes last night
on charge OF descrting from the United
States receiving ship Franklin at Norfolk
Va, a year ago.
Byrnes came TO this city a year ago and
has lived since that time In a furnished
room house at s5s West Twenty-seventh
street. The people there say he worked
In Hoboken brickyard and often said that
his home was in Chicago and that he sent
money there every week. He said this
money was for his wife. Byrnee is a good
looking chap and some Of the young women
at the house grew well acquainted with
him.
About three weeks ago Byrnes was In a
Twent y-third street restaurant when an
attractive young woman came in and sat
down directly opposite him. She dropped
her gloves on the floor and very properly
thanked Byrnes for picking them up.
Somehow they left the restaurant at the
same time and another acquaintance
began.
She said she was employed In an office
downtown and casually mentioned that
she came from Chicago. Byrnes said he,
too, came from Chicago. and in that way
the acquainta nce became friendship
Byrnes went home and told everybody
about the young woman. much to the
disgust Of the other young women, After
that he didn't send 80 much money to
Chicago. The money went for theatre
tickets and other amusements.
