ARE THEY TERRoRlzEo?
Dare Not the Known Chinese Reform
ers Advocate Reforms?

Pekin, July 29.-The Chinese who are
advocating government reforms have
been terrorized by the readoption of
the old policy of repression, as in
stanced by the recent arrest at Shang-
hal of Chinese editors on charges of Sc
dition. The names of 40 residents of
Pekin, who are accused of liberal ten
denotes, were presented to the Dowa ger
Empress, today, by the reactionary Of
ficials, who recommend that they be
severely punished. Those accused are
considered guilty of only what in en-
lightened countries would be considered
legitimate criticism of the government.
All foreigners and progressive Chi
nese are deeply interested in the de-
cision which the ministers will make
on the question Of turning over the
native editors arrested at Shanghai to
Chinese jurisdiction and they hope tina 4
the ministers will refuse, on the ground
of humanity, to deliver prisoners to
the Chinese for probable torture and
execution, as happened in the case of
the Chinese spies who We're turned over
to the Chinese officials at Shanghai
during the japanese war.
Chang Chi Tung, viceroy of Nankin,
is credited with the leadership Of the
reactionary policy, advising such a
course to the Empress Dowager, who
willingly acquiesced. Prince Ching is
reported to favor leniency. The Dow
ager Empress is said to blame the re-
formers and the increasing freedom of
speech for the disorders in the south,
hence the repressive measures.

two distinct conclusions and the air in
the direction of the Cartridge Cos.
works was filled with a white smoke
like that from burning powder. and
debris was seen flying in all directions.
The speed of the train prevented any
thing but momentary glimpse but it
was apparent to those on the train
that an explosion of magnitude had &C.
Cured. There We're many inquiries for
news when those on the train reached
the city.

THE TWO SHAMROCKS
Have a Lively Tilt in a Rafting 12-
Knot Breeze.

Atlantic Highlands, N. j., July 20
The two Shamrocks left Sandy Hook at
10 A. M. today, and took a run out
through the ship channel in a rafting
12-knot south wind that put their lee
rails under. Shamrock 1 set the new
boat a stiff pace, as she always does
in a good wind, and when they came
about after running off about six miles
there was little change in their rela-
tive positions. Both ran back to the
Hook and lay there for a short time
while some changes were made in the
challenger. Shortly after noon the
yachts again left their anchorage, but
went out only as far as the point Of
the Hook and after sailing about for
half an hour, returned to their an
chorage for the night.

WITHOUT MUCH CEREMONY.
Spanish Consul at La Guaira, Ven., De
prived of Exequator.

Port of Spain, Island of Trinidad. July
29.-Passengers who have just arrived
from La Guaira, Venezuela, report that,
last Monday, the Spanish consul at La
Guaira was deprived of mis- eXequatur as
a result of friction with the local au-
thorities over the Spanish claims in his
district against Venezuela.
According to their information it seems
that the local authorities established q
commission to revise the claims presented
by Spaniards and other foreigners to the
mixed tribunals under the terms of the
Bowen protocols
This commission, according to the state
mentS of these passengers. was composed
of military officers who We're said to have
been appointed for the purpose of intimi-
dating witnesses.
The Spanish consul requested the au-
thorities at La Guaira to give him an
authorization to attend the meeting Of the
committee.
1t is alleged that the project of the
commission, former actor, replied in a
letter in which he spoke of the consul at
the representative of pillagers.' and
subsequently distributed printed copies of
the letter in the streets of La Guaira.
The federal authorities are then said to
have withdrawn the consuls eXequateur
without notifying the Spanish minister.
