by the sisters to be a preventive against

An Associated Press dispatch from
Chicago tells Of an advance ordered
in certain classes of insurance rates to
go into effect next Monday, says the
Denver Times. The rise in rates has
not struck Denver yet, and those in a
position to know say it is uncertain
whether the rates will go up. The dis
ratch is as follows:
THE governing comr.;ttee of the
Western Insurance union has ordered
a % per cent advance Il rates on Ger,
tain classes of assurances in the west,
to take effect on March II.
The advance is on mercantile
stocks in all holdings, except such as
are occupied as dwellings above the
grade floor. and on frame buildings
and on all manufacturing risks and
other special hazards, including cold
storage and warehouses, mill lumber
yards and grain elevators. which have
not been rated under union schedule
within one year.
These rates are to apply only until
the risks affected can be rated under
union schedules. Sprinkled risks, where
the equipment is standard. are except
ed.
The advance applies to the territory
covered by the union, which includes
eighteen western states. from Ohio
to the Rockies
connected with the Rocky Mountain
Fire Underwriters association, which
regulates the rates here. This %associa-
ton has an office in the mining ex-
change building. where it was stated
this morning that nothing had been
heard of the order for a raise in rates
from the Western Insurance union.
The Rocky Mountain underwriters are
partially under the Western Insurance
union and partially under the Pacific
coast union, the two unions having
equal authority over the Rocky noun
tain underwriters. It was stated that
a raise is unlikely, for ne matter how
much the Western union might desire
it, the Pacific coast union would be
against the proposition, and having
equal authority, the change could not
be made.
The Rocky Mountain Underwriters
association controls Colorado. Wyo-
ming and New Mexico and any change
affecting this territory must come from
the Denver headquarters. If any
change Is intended for this territory,
the headquarters here would know OF It
by this time. as the matter is claimed
to go into effect next Monday.

RAILWAY
TO BE SURVEYED FROM LARAMIE
TO NORTH PARK BY THE
UNION PACIFIC.
Principal Assistant Engineer huntiey
Arrives fromomaha With Force OF
Men and Instruments and Gives
Out That He Will Take Field at
Once-RaiIroad Notes.

r S. Huntley, principal assistant en-
gineer of the Union Pacific, arrived
from Omaha this afternoon. accom-
panied by G. S. Foster and wife, c. N.
Sawyer and T. P. Sexton, and a whole
outfit of instruments and implements,
and will, it is understood, begin a sur
e for a railroad from Laramie
through North park to Salt Lake. Mr..
Huntley was seen and declined to en-
ter into a discussion of the case. fur
Their than to say that he had been sent
here to run the lines, and would employ
men and teams, secure supplies and be-
gin the work as soon as possible.
To a gentleman familiar with the
matter it was said that Mr.. Huntley
would resurvey the line of the old Lar
annie, North Park and Pacific, includ-
ing the Soda Lake line. and also anoth-
er line thought to be more feasible and
shorter to reach Mountain Home.
The soda Lake line extends from
here t North park by way Of the soda
lakes, Woods landing, Jelm, Jack
creek, west of Boswell's ranch. up Jack
creek to Mountain Home, north from
Mountain Home to the head of Camp
creek, down that stream to Pinkham-
ton and across Illinois and Michigan
creeks to the North Platte. thence up
the Platte to the junction Of the Little
and Big Grizzly creeks. to spicer,
thence owe the Muddy pass. east of
Rabbit Ears to Egoria park. to Roaring
Fork, to Steamboat Springs. skirting
through Larimer and Routt counties to
Salt Lake.
The other line and considered the
easiest and shortest Is to follow the
divide north Of Big Basin and south Of
the Flattop mountain around the
northeast point of Sheep mountain to
Owen lake and thence southwest along
the divide to Mountain home.
The old Soda Lake route was 1928
miles shorter han the Union Pacific's
present line to Salt Lake. It was sur
veyed In 1881 and thirteen miles Of
track to Soda Lakes built, which was
taken up a year OF two ago. The COM
pany still OWLS all the rights then ac-
quired on this line.

CHINESE LEADER
PROTEGE OF SAKAMNAHLAN

That a Savannah lady should have
been instrumental in securing an edu-
cation for a Chinaman, to-day one of
the best educated and most powerful,
politically. in his country, seems de-
cidedly strange and yet it is a fact
DR.. Young Wing, who is strong to die
tate who shall represent his country as
the accredited ambassador at Wash
ington, is the Chinaman, and Mrs.
Habersham is the native of this city to
whom he is indebted for his education
and, as a consequence, his present po-
sition.
These facts were discovered yester-
day in talk with Mr.. T. H. Gigniniat:
Il see DR.. Young Wing has been in
strumental in having the new Chinese
minister to Washington appoint

very we'll in Hartford, Conn, and he
greatly interested me one day by tell
ing me that he was enabled to go
through Yale by the help of a Savan-
nah lady. a Mrs. Habersham. / spec

my Sunday-school teacher at Christ
Church, and that Edward Habersham
was confirmed in the same class with
myself at that church. This was at the
time when Mr.. Mortimer was the pas
tor.
Il took a great fancy to DR.. Young
Wing and used to ask him down to the
shop to watch my experiments with
the aeroplanes. He would sit down

experiences of his remarkable career.
He told me that before he came over to
America he was in the silk business in
China. After he was graduated at
Yale he went back to China
and was Instrumental in get
ting fifty of the prominent
Chinese youths sent over to be edu-
Gated in America. He said he told the
Chinese officials that the Americans
were ahead of the Chinese on account
of their machinery and that the only
way for them to catch up was to send
boys over here and learn how to run
machinery like the Americans did, and
that was the way he got the officials to
send the boys over.
Besides talking of the past, we
would often make magnificent plans
for the future. China was without
banking system and Young Wing was
trying to get Levi p. Morton. the ex-
vice president, and some others. to
work up a Chinese bank with him.
There were some vastly rich gold mines
that he knew of which he was sure he
could get concessions to work. The
money that had to be put up was
about 81, 500 to pay the expense of his
trip to China. But nobody would adj
vance the money and he remained in
Hartford until great events turned the
tide in his favor. spoke to one or two

men who had a little money about his
scheme and they all replied to me that
the progressive party was out of DOW
er in China at that time, and that DR..
Young Wing would not be able to do
anything.
After year or two came the great
ChineSe-Japan war and Ii Hung
Chang noticed that wherever there was
any systematic work done in that war

The Savannah morning news., 1902-10-31

Savannahians will recall Col. Curtis
Guild, Jr. He was a brilliant Boston,
ian, who came to Savannah with the
Seventh Army Corps during the Span
ish war, and his stay here resulted in
his making many friends and admir-
ers.
Possibly on no occasion during his
stay in Savannah did Col Guild so
greatly impress his hearers with an
idea of his ability as a speaker as
upon that of the banquet that was
given to the late President Mckinley,
who was here to inspect the troops.
Col. Guild spoke extemporaneously, but
with an eloquence and a wit that
caused town-talk for no brief time
thereafter.
In Scribner's for November is an ex-
tremely interesting article by Col.
Guild, entitled 1.-The Spellbinder." Any
one would read it with enjoyment, and
particularly one who may have had
the pleasure of knowing the author.
1t is from a wealth of experience that
Col Guild writes of the spellbinder.
The following is an extract from the
article:
The green chairman always pre-
pares an elaborate preliminary speech.
If possible he touches a little on every
topic that can be brought up, thereby
taking the freshness from anything
that may be said. Sometimes he reads
ponderous remarks from notes. He sell
dom prepares what really is important
his introductions. Instead, the green
chairman takes no pains to ascertain
even one catching point in the career
of his victims, and sometimes neglects
even to ask their names.
The spellbinder who travels into
strange states soon discovers that the
national reputation" he thought he
had has not followed him, and even
sometimes that the men who have
most urged upon him his duty as
a patriot to help them out, have not
even taken the trouble to inform the
local committees of his name, much
less of his history
Hon. John Proctor Clarke of New
York, Gov. Roosevelt's associate
on so many tours, was in
troduced once as "a Mr. Clark
of New York" and once as Or
Proctor who put down the Tweed
Ring" Judge Clark was just ID years
of age at the time of Tweed's fall, but
the local chairman had heard in a
generaAway that Judge Clark had been
active against Tammany, and the
above Introduction was the result.
