BOXERS ACTIVE AGAIN.
China Said to Be On the Verge OF
Another Uprising.

Washington, Sept. 19.-China is on
the verge of another boxer uprising
which may equal that of 1900, accord
ing to mail advice received at the de-
partment of state from Minister Conger,
dated last month. The troubles appear
to arise principally from extortionate
taxation. combined with resentment
against the presence of missionaries,
thus iustifying the judgment of the state
department which pointed out to the
powers that the demand for excessive
indemnities would result in serious in
ternal troubles in China.
Mr.. Conger appears to have acted
with energy upon Geographic complaint
from DR.. Cartwright, an American med
ical missionary at Chentufu, not only
addressing the foreign office by letter,
but calling there in person to impress
upon the officials the necessity for i'm
mediate action, and finally succeeded
in causing the removal of the local Chi
nese officials who had failed to repress
the riots and preserve life and property.

FOUR SCORE DEAD
.r.MpEDE IN NEGRO CHURCH
AT BIRMINGHAM
uu;,ding Was Packed to the Doors
Nv CoIored Men and Women To
Hear Booker L. Washington.
Fight Started and Audience
Thought 1t Was Fire"

birmingham, Ala, Sept. 20.-In an
ouful crush of humanity, caused by
'tomnede in the Shiloh negro Baptist
obnrch at Avenue G and Eighteenth
street. seventy-eight persons were killed
and as many more injured. The catas-
tronhe occurred at 9 o'clock, just as
Rocker T. Washington had concluded
his address to the national convention
Of Baptists, and for three hours the
scones around the church were indes-
cribable. Dead bodies were strewn in
every direction, and the ambulances of
the city were utterly unable to remove
them until after l o'clock. Dozens of
dead bodies were arranged in rows on
the ground outside the house of wor-
shin awaiting removal to the various I'M
dertaking establishments, while more
than score were laid out on the
benches inside.
The church is the largest one for ne
groes in Birmingham, and the pastor
saws there were at least 1000 persons
in the edifice when the stampede be-
Gan. Instructions had been issued to
allow no more to enter, but the negroes
forced their way inside the building
and were standing in every aisle. Even
the entrance to the church was literally
packed. Just as Mr.. Washington con-
Guided has address Judge Billou, ne
gro leader from Baltimore, engaged in
an alteration with the choir leader con-
corning an unoccupied seat, and it is
said blow was struck. Some one IN
the choir cried "They're fighting"
Mistaking the word fighting for "tire"
the congregation rose en- masse and
strated for the door. One of the minis
ters quickly mounted the rostrum and
admonished the people to keep quiet.
He repeated the word "quiet" several
times, and motioned to his hearers to
be seated. Again the excited congrega-
ton mistook the word "quiet" for
fire" and renewed the struggle to
reach the door. Men and women crawl
ed over benches and fought their way
into the aisles, and those who had fall
len were trampled upon like cattle.
The ministers tried again to stop the
stampede, but no power on earth could
stay the struggling, fighting mass of
humanity. The screams of women and
children added to the horror of the
scene, and through mere fright many
persons tainted, and as they fell to the
floor were crushed to death.

FIRE ON POACHERS
Russia To Take FOrcible Measures
To Stop Seal POaching.

London. Sept. 1S.-In dispatch
from Odessa, the correspondent of The
Standard says the Russian minister of
agriculture and state domain, M. Yer
miloff, has announced that he has TAX
en- effective measures for the suppress
sion of the systematic poaching oper-
atoms of Americans and japanese
among the seal and other animals of
the sea on the northeastern coast of ST.
IBERIA. Although anxious to comply
with the reiterated representations of
Russia, the Washington and Tokyo gov
ernments have failed to put an end to
this illicit fishing in Russian waters.
M. Yermiloff, continues the cores
pondent, now gives formal notice that
American and japanese poachers cap
tured within the limits of Russia's mar
thine jurisdiction on the Siberian coast
will be liable to three months impris-
onment, and their ships and cargoes to
confscation.
This order will be enforced by three
fast gunboats. No discrimination will
be made. The commanders and crews
of poaching vessels will be subjected to
the same punishment.
In case of a refustal to surrender or
attempt TO escape, the commanders OF
the Russian gunboats are empowered to
fire upon and sink the sea PIRATES.

SUBMITTED TO QUAY.
Draft of Bill Which Would Set
tie Coal Strike.

Philadelphia, Sept. 22.-Daniel H.
Mccarthy, lawyer of Hazleton, visit
ed Senator Quay at Republican state
headquarters and submitted to the sem
ator the draft of bill making provision
for the appointment of receiver to as
sumo control of anthracite coal mines
under certain conditions. Mr.. McCar-
thy recently submitted the same bill to
Mr.. Mitchell, of the United Mine Work
ers. The measure authorizes the legis-
lature to appoint receiver for the COM
panies on the ground that they have vio-
lated the state constitution, which pro-
vides, in article IS, section 8, that the
charters and franchises of Incorporate
cd companies may be revoked if the
business of the corporations is so con-
Quoted as to infringe the rights of indi-
viduals or the public welfare.
1t could not be learned what occurred
during the conference, but Mr.. McCar-
thy intimated that Senator Quay had
agreed to give the subject consideration.

BELONGS TO U. S.
Father AnatoIy Admits he Has
Papers of Value in Alas
ka Boundry Case

Minneapolis, Sept. 22.-Father An
atoly of the Greek Catholic church of
this city has admitted that he is in his
possession of ecclesiastical documents
tending to confirm the American claims
to the rich gold bearing territory in the
far Northwest, which has been in dis
pute between the United States and
Great Britain for several years. These
reports consist chiefly of reprints and
surveys authorized by Russia when
Alaska was the cars.
Father Anatoly was sent to Alaska
by the Greek church in 1897, and he
remained there four years. He made a
special study of the country, it's re-
sources and it's history, and it was on
account of his position in the church
that he was enabled to secure the docu-
ments that promise materially to aid
the American government in proving
its Alaska claims.
Among the papers in the possession
of Father Anatoly is a copy of the Alas
kan treaty in the English and Russian
languages. Accompanying this treaty
is an Alaskan priests narrative show
ing that in 1915, the Russian Trading
company had a dispute with the Hud-
son Bay company of Canada and des-
troyed some of the latter's property
The Russian concern then conceded a
strip of territory about ten miles wide,
located in "a degrees 40 minutes Ion
gitude, near the mouth of the Stickeen
river, for a term of years.
The Hudson Bay company was to col
lect rents for this period in this terri
tory, and have exclusive domain. But
the tract was never given back, and
Father Anatoly says it is now usurped
by British authorities.

SHOT SEA SERPENTS
Japanese Papers Report Killing of
Two Sea Monsters.

Victoria. B. c., Sept. 1S.-Japanese
papers received by the Empress of In
dia report the capture of two sea SER
penis off the coast of Japan by fisher
men. One was male and measured
forty-eight feet, and the other, fe-
male, thirtv-nine feet. They had horns
two feet six inches long, and ears of
about two feet. The male became en-
tangled in the nets of the fishermen.
and as they were hauling it to the
shore the monster cme to the surface
and beloved. Finally finding that
they could not take the serpent shore
wards in the nets, they got firearms
from the schooners and shot the beast.
AS the male turned over in its death
agony, the female came to the surface
and dashed the water in her fury. She
also was killed and the remains of both
taken ashore and thence to Osaka,
where they were exhibited. 1t is the
opinion of scientists that the serpents,
being disturbed by seismic disturb
ances, abandoned the deep water for
shallower.

FORESTS NOT HURT.
Damage BY Fire Did Not Extend to
Wooded Lands.

Seattle, Sept. l9.-Railroad officials
and lumbermen say that the recent
forest fires have not seriously affected
The standing timber of this state. 1t is
estimated by these authorities that the
loss to Washington through the destruc-
Ton of timber will be less than l per
cent.
In the aggregate this is a small sum,
put 1t does not take into consideration
the loss to individual settlers who had
made extensive improvements and were
good customers of the railroads through
the shipments they made over the reg
uiar lines. The logged off lands, it is
pointed ont, are more easily affected by
Forest fires and better opportunity for
,helr spread exists in districts which
nave been gene over by lumbermen
'han in the forests of the state.

BACK FROM THE NORTH.
Peary Failed to Find the Pole, But
Says He Gained Knowledge.

North Sidney, N. s., Sept. 19.-The
Windward arrived here from the north
at a. m. with Lieutenant Peary and
DR.. Diedrichs on board. Although he
failed to reach the pole, Lieutenant
Peary says that he has made scientific
discoveries in the Arctic regions of
greater importance than the discovery
of the pole would be.
The Peary exploring party, while it
did not reach as far north as some of
its predecessors. obtained an accurate
knowledge of the geographical condi-
tions in the region visited, which is the
field over which most of the recent ex-
ploring parties have attempted to travel.
Much information was gained regarding
the passes to the northward. Peary
claims that while his progress was less
than he had expected, he has acquired
fresh knowledge of the country which
will almost insure success at the next
effort.
Soaking of the general result, Peary
said to the waiting newspaper men:
"My last dash for the pole was very
successful. | reached latitude much
further north than 80 degrees and q
minutes, which was my former record.
All of my party are in excellent health
except Mrs Peary. who has been i'll for
a fortnight. She is now recovering.

1T is GOOD LAW.
STATE statute Regulating Hours of
work For Women Sustained


Seattle, Sept. 22.-Without dis
sentlng vote the supreme court of the
state has held the ten hour female en-
pioyment law of 1901 a constitutional
and valid exercise of the police nower
of the state.
The opinion, a copy of which has
been received by Prosecuting ATTORNEY
Fulton from Olympia, shows that the
decision is based npon the broad ground
that changing social conditions have
MADE necessary state control of many
trades and occupations heretofore left
wholly to the individual.
Justice Dunbar, who writes the opin
ION, says unreservedly that for the
health and welfare of generations vet
unborn the working hours of the moth
ers and daughters of the present gener-
alton must he curtailed in the manner
contemplated by the ten-hour law.
The decision is rendered in test
case. At the hearing in the superior
court last March Judge Griffin held the
law unconstitutional. Prosecuting At
torney Fulton appealed the case and
has now won goodly victory.

HENDERSON QUITS
SPEAKER OF HOUSE DECLINES
DENOMINATION
Reason Given is That He is at Vari-
ance With His Constituents on
the Tariff and Trust Questions.
Letter to Convention Chairman
Defines His Position.

Dubuque, La. Set. 1S.-Speaker Hen
derson, finding that his views in re-
spect to the treatment of trusts by re-
ducing the tariff in whole or in part
are not in accord with the views of
many of his party in Iowa, has this
day declined to accept the nomination
for congress, which was rendered him
some time ago, and has withdrawn from
the race. Speaker Henderson has adj
dressed The following letter to c. E. AL
brook, of Eldora, chairman of the no.
LITIGATION committee:
"My Dear Sir: 1 have never an
swered the kind notice communicated
by you and your associates advising me
of my nomination for the eleventh time
by reclamation as Republican candi-
date for congress for the Third congress
sional district of Iowa. Reported con-
ditions in the public mind in my dis
trict upon public policies induced me
to take this delay. Since my return to
the district have made a careful study
of the sentiment in the district and
state, and believe that there is no lit
tie sentiment and a growing one among
the Republicans that do not represent
their views on the tariff question. Be-
lievnig this condition to exist and know
ing that | do not agree with many Of
my people that the trusts, to which l
am and have been opposed, can be
curbed, or the people benefited by
free trade in whole or in part. l must
decline to accept the nomination so
graciouslv and enthusiastically made.
have devoted twenty of the best
years of my life to the service of my
people and my country, and have fought
for what believed to be the best for
the farmer, the laborer and the bust
ness interests of this district and state.
l am grateful for the devotion that has
ever been accorded me, and to the hour
of my death will hold in grateful
heart the memory of that devotion. l
will later on give in some detail my
views and convictions on our condi-
tions, and on public questions and
state my reasons why the Republican
party and it's policies should continue
in the confidence of the voters of the
United States, and why the doctrines of
the Democracy should find no lOdg-
ment in the faith and teachings of the
Republican party. Very truly yours,
sd. B. HENDERSON"
When asked for his reason for his
withdrawal Speaker Henderson said:
"My letter to Chairman Albrook is
the whole thing in nutshell. You
cannot kill the trusts by applying free
trade without killing our own indus
tries. The foreign trusts are fighting
the American trusts, and l do not be-
Iieve that for the purpose of controlling
American trusts, we should make a
market for foreign trusts, thereby
crushing out the industries of this coun-
rty. After my conference last Saturday
at Waterloo hearing the views of the
chairman of my district, l concluded
that my views on the tariff question
were at variance with those of my par
ty, and l did not desire to appear in a
false position"

FIFTEEN DOLLARS A TON.
Citizens of the National Capital
Helping Pay For the Strike.

Washington, Sept. 22.-Anthracite
coal sold during the dGy at $13 to $15
a ton and not more than ton was de-
livered to any enc purchaser by the
dealers, for there is not enough of a
supply on hand. In many instances
only half a ton was delivered at the
same ratio. Wood, which might take
the place of coal, had an upward jump
of more than 81 in the morning. The
price asked for prepared pine wood
was So a cord. Oak sold at 50. Hick-
DRY brought $40 cord. There was
stiff demand. A proportionate add
vance was also noted in long wood.
Soft coal is in great demand as sub
stitute for anthracite coal, and the
price has gone up from $3.50 a ton
to $3.50.

this is because by far the majority of

the belief that in proposing to regulate
