British Minister Takes Drastic Meas
ures to Bring China to Terms.
Drastic measures were taken by the
british minister to bring about the pun
lshnent of the Funan officials who re-
fused to provide protection for the two
British missionaries, Bruce and Lewis,
who were murdered. The Chinese govern
ment refused to punish these officials
as requested by the British minister.
and the governor of Funan, in an official
communication regarding the murders,
used the term 'barbarians" to designate
the dead missionaries. This incensed the
Erltish minister and he again called on
China TO punish the officials. The inn
perial government persisted in its refusal
and at the request of the minister Brit
ish war vessels made a naval demonstra-
ton in which the first-class cruiser Am
phltrite and the sloops Algerine and Es-

ment to time and an edict was issued

also defeated for Speaker in the Fifty
first Congress. So was Mckinley. Thom-
as b. Reed was elected. Mckinley be-
came chairman of the committee on
ways and means, and Cannon became
chairman of the committee on appropri-
tons. In every Republican Congress
since then Cannon has been chairman of
his old committee, and as such he has
had more power and responsibility re-
garding appropriations for government
expenses and public work than any other
member of either house.
Mr.. Cannon vas not a jingo before
the war with Spain began. He was one
of the conservatives. lie knew that war
meant big appropriations and increased
debt, rather than economy. and the CON
tinuance of paying off bonded indebted
ness. But when the battleship Maine
was blown up in Havana harbor, Uncle
joe said littlS on either side. He began
making few figures, and one morning he
quietly dropped little bill in the box,
which, when found, created a sensation,
not only in Washington, but in every
city in the civilized world
That bill was unique. 1t had no pre-
cedent. 1t appropriated $50,000,000 for
public defense. and placed that sum at
the disposal of the President. 1t meant
that the nation would get ready for war,
and it directed the President to take
steps to that end. 1t was passed without
a dissenting vote by the House. There
were speeches, but they were all for the
bill In the Senate there were no
speeches, but it passed by unanimous
vote there also.
Cannon's bill was the first sign that
the United States intended to light.
There were certain nations in Europe
that were encouraging Spain. 1t seemed
possible that some Of them might feel
encouraged to take a hand in the scrap.
Uncle Joe" gave Europe sample ef
American readiness for fight by having
Congress hand over S50,000,000 TO the
President. 1t startled the world as Mr..
Cannon meant that it should. 1t was a
bluff, not meant for Spain, but for the
other European powers. 1t answered ITS
purpose.
Mr.. Cannon was born in n Quaker set
Element in North Carolina. When he
was years old his father, DIR. Horace
f. Cannon. emigrated to the banks Of
the w aDasn ut DlOOmiuSudit. d-rAS
County. Ind He was IA years old when
his father died, and at that age he start
ed out for himself, his first work being
as a clerk in a country store. He was
SO employed until he had atfsdprd us
majority, when he began tho study on
law. and was admitted to the BAR ct
Terre Haute in 1858.
The next year Mr.. Cannon moved to
Tuscola, H., and in 1861 he was elee1ed
district attorney. He held that office
for seven years. or until 1868, aud in
1872 he was elected TO Congress from
that district. 1t was at that time that
Joe Cannon began to ngure in national
affairs
In the next House 104 votes will be
necessary to elect the Speaker ia the
Republican caucus. and, according &c a
Washington correspondent. Mr.. Cannon
now has eighty-eight pledged and thirty
two more practically eorralled The
votes shat are pledged are:
