HAD GOVERNMENT SANCTION
Proof Of Completely of Chinese Empress
with the Boxers.

New YORK, January 10-Docu-
ments now in possession of Co.
lumbia University it is believed
prove that the Chinese imperial
government was in alliance with
the boxer uprisings. The docu-
ments consist of an original block
cut and a copy of proclamation.
The papers are the gift of the
Rev. D. F.. D Gamewell, who
constructed the defenses of the
allies at the siege o. Pekin.
Some few days after the relief
of the beleagured garrison by the
foreign troops. DR.. Gamewell Sc
sured new quarters for the meth
odist episcopal schools, their own
building having been destroyed.
Two private houses were taken,
and it was IN a table in one of
these that a number of circulars
were found, together with the
plate from which they had been
printed. The circulars bear the
seal of the government used on
imperial documents. The word
ing of the circular is:
by Imperial Command: Let
the Boxers of there follow the
names of eight towns near Pekin)
rise up to united victory"
This, it is supposed, meant the
destruction of the foreigners. as
shown in the Boxer motto: "Pro.
tect the Manchus: destroy the
foreigners" The circulars are
printed on yellow paper, with
black type excepting the ver-
million of the seal, or g imperial
pencil" as it IS known. Red
characters, signlfying the seal OF
the Boxers, are stamped on the
lower left hand corner.

TIRED OF UNCLE TOM
Kentucky Women Ask For Suppression
of Slave Drama.

LEXINGTON, KY, Jan. IL
Lexington chapter United
Daughters of the Confederacy
have sent a written petition to
Chas- B. Scott, manager of the
Lexington opera house, asking
that the play "Uncle Toms Cab
in" never be played again at the
opera house here. They give
reasons that the best citizens and
old families living IN and about
Lexington were once slave own
ers, as heritage not of their
own choosing; that the incidents
of "Uncle Toms Cabin" are not
typical of slave life in the south,
but the issolated cases; that the
production of play and its being
advertised with bloodhounds
and pictures of an old negro IN
chains and a slave owner with
whip in hand, give a false idea
Of the history of the times to the
children of the city and is dlsres-
pectful to the southern gentle
men and good citizens and their
families in this part of the coun-
try.
The petition is signed by four
of the most prominent women of
the chapter and Endorsed unanl-
mously by the members. 1t has
created a sensation here.

MANILA'S MONEY TANGLE
Financial Situation IN Philippines
Troublesome.

MANILA, Jan. 9-Numerous
meetings of merchants and 9TH
ers have been held recently at
which resolutions were passed
urgently requesting congresslon-
al action to meet the financial
situation here. Since the ratio
was officially changed, Jan. 1,for
the first quarter of 1901, to be
50. 10 Mexican silver to one
American gold dollar, business
transactions of any sort have be-
come difficult. The majority of
the business houses have raised
their prices to 10 per cent. and
some houses refuse to accept any
but American coins, which are
difficult to obtain owing to the
vast speculative shipments of
coin during the past few months.
Some banks refuse to recognize
the government ratio and are
fixing their own rate at one
American gold dollar to TWO
Mexican silver dollars. Even
the governments American EN-.
ployes, whose saiariesare payable
in Mexican dollars, object to the
change, owing to the large in
crease in prices.
The leading banks refuse to
handle government checks, not
because they have any doubt of
obtaining the money, but be-
cause of the frequent long delays
over trifiing irregularities.
The postal authorities refuse
to accept Mexican dollarsf or
American dollars at any ratio.

HYpNOTIsM
How an Enterprising Chicago
Dentist PulIe d a wife.
Dramatic Storu of Wlfe'S Detention
and q Husbands SedrCh-She was
Compelled TO Sue for Divorce But
Declares She Loves Her Spouse.

CHICAGO, Jan. 10-Instead of
ransom, such as the swashbuckl-
er bandttti of Bulgaria demand
for the release Of Miss Stone e, the
missionary, and her native wom-
an companion, resident of Chi
cago, Julius C. Kroeschell. a
grocer, resorted to the use of a
writ of habeas corpus to regain
the sunshine of his wifes society
and incidently told a story that
would furnish plots for half a
dozen thrilling dramas.
In the vicinity of the Kroe-
schell home yesterday neighbors
talked of little else. The wife
smiled and her aged spouse Che
counts his years fifty was sell
ing thirteen eggs for a dozen.
The story came out in Judge
Holdon's court. The husband
told how his wife had been taken
from him by a dentist. Albert
Seeglltz, at the latter's Office by
the influence of hypnotism; how
she had been locked up by the
professional; how the husband,
who had gone thither with her,
had been knocked down and
thrown into the street. All this
it was said was done against the
will of the woman.
The court directed a deputy
sheriff to find Mrs. Kroeschell.
She was apprehended at 1919 Ev-
anston avenue in charge of two
women who had been told by the
dentist, it is said, not to let her
escape. Willingly the woman &C
companied the officer to court
and there she correlated her
husbands story. 1t was assert
ed that as half-sister of the den-
lists first wife Mrs. Kroeschell
had lived several years at the
Seeglitz home and that the den
fist knew she had a comfortable
fortune, part of which consisted
of 50, 900 in money.
1t was to obtain this and deeds
of property, it was alleged, that
the dentist induced the couple to
visit his Office Jan. 3. There, it
is asserted, the dentist told the
wife to enter another room and
then the door was shut. Since
that time until yesterday Kroe.
schell had not seen her.
"Take your wife home" said
Judge HOldOm 10 the grocer.
Mrs. Kroeschell said she would
go gladly. Now comes another
chapter, and still another chapt-
er will be ready Saturday when
the dentist will be arraigned in
Justice court for assault and bat
terry. The second chapter, how
ever, is due in Judge Chytraus'
court, where lies bill for di-
vorce filed by Mrs. Kroeschell,
at the instance, it is alleged, of
the dentist. A motion will be
made by Kroeschell's attorney
for the dismissal of the com
plant. The wife says she has
no desire for a divorce, that she
loves her husband and that she
has been a prisoner for a week.
The dentist will be brought into
Judge Holdom's court, too, on a
bench warrant for not appearing

Chase, and others of the American colony" whose names we did not get. The baile lasted all night, all day Sunday, and was still going on at last accounts.
 It has been asserted that there are no beggars in Mexicol This
 might have been the case fifty
 years ago, but it is certain that
 nowadays one meets them every
 where. One of them in Altar is said to be one hundred years old and is one of the most picturesque characters we ever saw, the exact counterpart of Rip Van Wrinkle. His legs are wrapped around with different-colored strips of cloth, presenting the spectacle of d couple of animated barber poles. His head is surrounded by flowing snow-white locks. and he wears wide, fiat, girls hat which was probably contributed by some American lady who once passed through the pueblo. In one hand he carries long staff to support his feeble, bent form, and with the other he carries stick slung over his shoulder across which hangs two sacks in which he puts the bread, meat beans or other con- tributions which he soliclts from house to house. X faded red blanket, in tatters, completes his costume. lis old beggar is very partial to foreigners, and whenever he catches sight of one he makes for him. plants himself squarely in his path, and beating on the pave- ment with his staff to force att tention, asks for give monee, senor, give moneeY, If he is re- warded with silver piece, he is profuse in his thanks and calls on the Holy Virgin to bless the donor, but if the victim does not 'pungle,' the old man turns away with curses.
 The people here are quick to take advantage of the renewed that the District is which for so many years has had a very bad reputa- tion among mining men, and prospectors are going out in every and mines that have laid idle for years for want of foreign capital to work them are being and developed. We pre- dict that within a very few years this District will be one of the heaviest producers in the precious metals in the State of Sonora, and that the eyes of mine buyers will once more be turned in this direc- ton in great numbers, and it will permanently take a front rank in the industry of mining, the chief industry of this wonderfully fertile

the town, to set the monuments II
 accordance with the new circular
 recently issued by the Department
 of mines. This mine Is an antigua
 worked some hundred wears age
 by the .Jesuits, and it has hundreds
 of feet of ancient workings, cham
 bers and galleries. Ore has been
 taken out of this mine (lead and
 silver) assaying 2000 ounces of
 silver to the ton, but 1t occurs in
 pockets and seems near the surface,
 the deepest workings being only
 about a one hundred feet, at which depth water was encountered in such volume as to stop work. A one-horse whim was unable to clear the mine of water, and work
 was stopped some years ago by
 the company then operating it for
 lack of funds to put in steam
 pumps. At water-level in the main
 shaft ledge of rich ore was en- countered which gave every pro- mise of being permanent. The present owners have a tive-stamp mill on the property, and it Is their intention to resume opera tions in the near future.
 There is great activity in mining all over the Altar District at pre- sent. La Cuchilla" is big prop erty lying but four miles west of the county seat. This company has 15 or 20 carloads of machinery await ing transportation at the railroad station of Santa Ana, and scores of men are already employed at the mines. They are piping water from ranch six miles away in four inch mains, powerful steam boiler and pump forcing the water to reservoir on d hill and from there the water Is conveyed to the mines by gravitation. At La Ca lera" and "La Veta Grande" they are working large forces of men, and work has also been resumed at ~Sombreritillo," which has been lying idle for many years, the old workings having been flooded with water. The latter was the greatest and richest mine in the district in it's day, and has produced thou sands of dollars in the precious metals, but bad management and thieving employees (the old story) broke up several companies, who threw up the property in disgust. This mine is but few miles from the Arizona line.
 One of the indications of the revival of good times in the Altar District is the activity in the ma trimonial market. A few days before our arrival there was a we'd ding of rather mis-mated couple, the groom being an old man over sixty years of age and the bride girl of fifteen. The day of our arrival at Tnbutama young man from Yuma welded young girl of the town, and the next day another young couple were married in the same place The day of our second arrival in Altar Saturday, the 1Sth,) there was celebrated in the double wedding in Thigh life," the grooms being brothers, sons of Don Leonardo Zepeda, and the brides being sisters of Don Carlos Pompa. The wedding was solemnized in the evening in the presence of the entire population, and was follow ed by big supper and grand baile at the Zepeda residence which was attended by the elite. including MT. and Mrs. Rogers, Mr. and Mrs !. n, I Nt NT
