WI TING FANG's FAREWELL.
Retiring Chinese Minister Leaves I
@ Message to Americans.

San " Francisco, Nov. 25.-Former
Chinese Minister WI Ting Fang has
made public the following farewell to
the American people.
People: It is nearly six years ago
since came here and during my resi-
dence In America have found it very
pleasant. On the whole have been re-
ceived in q very kind and courteous
way by the American people, the high
est officials and all
Before leaving this hospitable
shore want to express my grateful
appreciation of the uniform kindness
and courtesy shown to me by all class
es of people have come in contact
with. shall carry with me very
pleasant remembrances of my stay.
am glad to notice that the, friendly re-
have been always cordial and within
the last few days closer than before,
and i hope this state Of things will
long continue. s~
Gas to the future of China, politi-
cally and commercially, will say
have been away from my own country
nearly six years and although people
think that it is not progressing, but is
standing still, when I go back will
see many things that are new to me.
China Is progressing, it being such a
large country, with such a large popu-
lation and with people educated to and
brought up in such conservative
way, you cannot, although the idea Of
reform is taking root, expect it to
make a sudden and radical change as
you might think possible in a, smaller
country; but, nevertheless, China has
made reasonable reforms in many
ways within the last few years. Her
commerce will be developed and will
be increased with that of this coun-
try. The Pacific coast, in particular,
would reap large harvest by having
larger trade with China"

strikers R|01NG|N HAVANA
Number of Strikers and Officers are
Killed in Disturbance in
City Of Havana. ..a
Police Will Not Make Arrests Owing
to Sympathy of the Officials
with the Strikers.
No Bread or Meat on Sale and Con
tinuance of the Trouble Will
Cause Suffering. 49,.

Havana, Nov. 25.-Police Captain
Maso and two officers were wounded
and two strikers were killed during a
demonstration in front of the palace.
In addition two policemen and several
strikers were wounded.
The strike here became general dur
ing the day. The conductors and mo.
tormen continued running their cars
until 10 o'clock when Superintendent
Greenwood ordered a suspension of
traffic. He had asked the civil governor
for protection but the authorities were
unable to protect the cars. Several of
them were wrecked and some motor
men and conductors were injured.
The men were willing to remain at
work, but the officers of the com.
pany, in order to protect the property,
deemed it wise to suspend the service.
The situation is grave. The police
will not make arrests owing to the
pronounced sympathy of the mayor
and city officials with the strikers. A
mob of strikers drove the employees OF
the Western railway from trains dur
ing the morning. No bread or meat is
on sale and continuance of the
strike will cause much suffering to the
| poor. ...
When the strikers became disorder
| ly the mayor read the riot act and
later the police charged a number oil
men at the slaughterhouse and in
| jured several of them.
The mayor gave full power to the
chief of police, who now has the situa
tfon under control. The electric cars
are again running and the mobs are
| being dispersed.

CHICAGO PROFESSORS OPINION.
Workman Can Support Family and
Save Money on $500 Year.

Chicago, Nov. 25.-"That no man has
a right to bring into the world more
children than he can support" and
that no parents, however wealthy,
have a right to bring children into the
world and so train them that by any
possibility they may become dependent
on others" were two propositions en-
phasized by Professor j. Scott Clark
of Northwestern university in an ad-
dress at the First Congregational
church, Evanston.
The chief burden of Professor
Clark's address was the possibility of
all men and women becoming indie
pendent. Professor Clark declared
that on salary Of $500 a year an un-
skilled American workman could keep
a family in comfort and save money.
He added that this was not only pos
sibility, but the duty of every work
man. r.. s-s e.

Confer With the President
on Party Policy.
Meeting st the Desire Of Mr.. Roose-

Message is Practically Ready to be

Washington, Nov. 25.-President
Roosevelt will put the finishing
touches to his annual message to con
gressl in the next twenty-four hours.
The document Is practically completed
now, but it is the presidents desire
finally to consult several of the lead
ers in both branches of congress as to
one or two features of the message be-
fore he commits it to the hands of the
printer.
This was day of conferences at the
executive offices. The president ar
rived in his Office early and soon was
beseiged by callers With several SEN
ators and representatives he had en-
gagements and he declined to see all
others. During the hour before lunch
con the president had brief confer
ences with Senators Allison Qa.),
Lodge (Mass.), Foster (Wash.), Quay
(Pa.), Fairbanks (Ind.), Stewart
(Nev.), McComas (Md), Elkins (W.
Va.) and Gibson (Mont. and with
Speaker Henderson and Representa-
tives Cannon (Ill.) Babcock wis J,
Boutelle (Ill.) and Lands (Ind).
Nearly every one Of the callers was
with the president so short a time that
no opportunity was afforded to discuss
the important questions the consider
alton of which is involved in the mes
sage. s,. f.tl
Many of them announced as they
left the executive Offices that they had
called

tdent any matters Of policy.
With the views of all the president is
reasonably familiar With Senator
Quay and with Speaker Henderson the
president was in conference for half
an hour or more. The former did not
hesitate to express to the president
his opposition to any tariff revision Ell
ther at the approaching short session
of congress or in the next congress.
He expects to press in the senate this
winter the territorial statehood bills
and is very optimistic as to the re-
suit. BY agreement the statehood
bills will be made the unfinished busi-
ness of the senate soon after the ses-
sion begins. The president conferred
with Speaker Henderson sas to the
status of business during the short ses-
sion in congress, but the speaker de-
clined to enter into any of the details
of the conference.
Mr.. Cannon had only a brief inter-
view with the president during which
they talked Of no public questions.
1t is the policy of the president to
talk at some length with the congress
sional leaders as to his attitude and
their position on trusts and tariff.
The discussion of the latter subject, it
is understood, will be with special ref.
erence to the reciprocity question.
Speaker Henderson, and Representa-
tive Cannon later in the day had q con-
ference with the president.
