AGGRESSION
OF FRENCH
Hongkong Banker Says It Outfaces
Russia's Maneuyers.
SOUTHERN CHINA MENACED
While the Eyes of the world Are on
Aanchuria, AIr. Cunningham As
serts, France Is GobbIing Down
Country Of Greater value.

Victoria, B. G., May 21.-Alfred Gun
ningham. manager Of the Hongkong
Daily Press, who has arrived on the
Kaga Maru, said in an interview here
that while attention is held in north
China by Russian aggression, a matter
Of far more Importance TO America,
Britain and Japan has been overlooked
in the south.
This is the aggression Of France In
the southern provinces. Mr.. Cunning
ham said he believed that France and
Russia were acting in concert, the
former in the north and the latter in
the south. He asserts that France has
bribed the officials OF Kwangsi. and is
waiting the opportunity TO pour troops
into that province.
"The south" said Mr.. Cunningham,
sis now on the verge Of a far greater
international crisis than that now evil
dent in the north, although at present
the rebellion in Kwangsi is practically
brigandage on a large scale
Proforeign Rising,
The reformers, he says, have organ
lied the brigands, and a revolution far
greater than the TAPPING rebellion ever
was will break out before long in south
China. Large quantities Of arms are
being shipped to the rebels, chiefly
from the United States, and, headed by
the reformers, a movement will break
out, pro-foreign in its nature, to over
throw the empress dowager and rein
state Emperor Kwangsu.
Mr.. Cunningham said he had the best
| information that a movement organ
lied on an immense scale and including
many provinces, is liable to break out
at any moment
Oriental advices by the kaga Maru
say that japanese journals declare
that Russia will never relinquish Man
churia. The Mainachi says large forces
of Russian troops are crossing the va
lu river and 10000 Russians are now
massed there.
The Picking correspondent of the
same paper quotes the empress dow
ager as stating that it was impossible
to cede Manchuria, whence came ths
ancestors Of the dynasty, to Russia
but it might be advisable,to lease out
| err Mongolia, which is contiguous t
Siberia, provided the Russians woult
open the district to trade.
The correspondent says Russian
bribed all the officials except Prime
Ching prior TO the secret treaty III re
gard to Manchuria, paying out oye
100000 taels.

For AZ years nearly as long as in Yer
month people Of New Hampshire have
waited before liquor could be legally sold,
until on Wednesday nigh. the first licensed
place in the state was opened in the city
Of Manchester. There was nothing par
ticularly new about it for the people Of
Manchester. Certainly not, for they had
been living in an atmosphere Of saloons
albeit the saloons were legally prohibited.
The only unusual thing about 1t was the
big crowd that congested the only place
that opened its doors. The thirst that had
been whetted in the few days since the
illegal saloons had been shut down could
not be satisfied with one drinking place,
and the proprietor had to shut up shop.
There is an interesting question about the
opening Of this place The proprietor
knew that he had been granted license
but he bad not received that license from
the commissioners. Now the question
arises whether he had legal right to oper
his saloon simply on the notification, with
out having received license. We're th,
question ever called to court it would I'm
doubtedly be found that the man did hay
legal right to open.

Russia, he pointed out, has spent
large sums and sent large forces tt
develop Manchuria, while Britain ana
Japan have not spent a cent there nor
sent a soldier, and they cannot have
any right to interfere with the dis.
trict.
In conclusion the minister said that
in Russia the opinion was gaining
ground that the time was ripe to de
clare Manchuria a Russian province.

The St. Adams Messenger has some
thing to say on the matter Of keeping the
streets Of the city clean, and the text
and advice is applicable in a degree to the
city of Barre. The Messenger says in
part "As for the appeal Of the board for
the help Of the public In keeping the
streets clean. It must commend itself at
once to the common sense Of all who real.
ize that without such popular eo-opera-
ton In little city like this with limited
police and street cleaning forces little can
be done. 1t is, indeed, high time we be-
gan to slough OF some Of the old habits
Of generations time we began TO get
away from some of the notions that are
characteristic Of an overgrown country
village, ana begin to realize that there are
certain obligations to the code Of civic
neatness that are essential to making the
city beautiful"

On the basis Of the increase In the NUM-
Der Of polls as brought out by the city as
SCISSORS who are just completing their work,
the population Of the city Of Barre at the
present time is II the neighborhood Of lo,.
TAO. The exact population, 1t Is, Of course,
impossible to determine, but the figures
given are believed to represent fairly ac-
curately the population Of the city, It
may be somewhat more or somewhat less
than that number. The increase is indeed
omethng remarkable, but it is nothing
more than could be expected from a grow
ing, progressive community In the cen
sus Of 1900 the city Of Barre il credited
with a population Of s,alS people. In the
three years since that census the popula-
ton figures have been increased by over
1000, according to the estimate just made.
In the same proportion Of increase, at the
end Of another ten years, the city 81 Barre

tion. Coincdent with this increase in the
city there Is proportionate gain in the
town Of Barre mainly ii the granite re-
gion The combined populations of the
city and town is $1,000 at the present time.
Barre Is certainly thriving community.

Secret Convention That May Mean
Much to Crowned Heads.
NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-The Evening
Telegram today prints story to the
effect that anarchists from all over the
world are about to meet in a secret
convention at Paris to devise plans
that may radically affect the crowned
heads Of Europe. All preparations for
the convention were carefully guard
ed, but the plans became known,
through the boastful talk of a youth
full delegate to the convention from
this city. This man, an Italian, known
as angelo" and Rudolph" gave up
his place on Saturday, declaring that
he had been selected as one of five
delegates from the United States to
the convention,
The Evening Telegram says: 'Far-
reaching anarchistic plans are to be
discussed and perfected in this worlds
convention. 1t is said, and it is even
whispered that, ere adjournment Is
taken, a meeting Of anarchy's inmost
cabal will be held and lots drawn as
signing men to deeds the full accom-
plishment of which may shape the
destinies of the reigning houses of Eu-

FILIBUSTER
Threaten to Block the Wheels
of Legislation Till the Last
Day of the Session if the
Wagoner-Butler Contested
Election Case Is Brought
Up.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 25.-The
Democrats of the house have called a
caucus for tomorrow evening to act
on the f1libustering programme the
Democratic leaders have decided on
for the remainder of the session. Yes
terday, when the majority of the cleo
tions committee No. 2 presented their
report in favor of unseating Mr.. But
Ter, of Missouri whose seat is being
contested by Mr.. Wagner, the Demo-
cratic leaders at the request of the
Democrats of the Missouri delegation
served notice on the Republican lead
ers that if an attempt was made to
call up the case for action they would
60 everything in their power to block
che wheels of legislation until March
!. No reply was given, but a truce
was patched up during the afternoon
on the understanding that response
would be given this afternoon.
Shortly before adjournment today
Speaker Henderson notified Mr.. Rich
ardson, the minority leader, that the
case would be called up tomorrow.
Thereupon the call for the Democratic
caucus was issued. The Democrats
are organizing for a fight to a finish.
While their action probably will not
jeopardize any of the appropriation
bills, if they stick to their programme
of demanding a roll call on every prop
osition and insisting on the presence
of a quorum they can greatly embar-
= rass the majority and defeat many mi
nor measures which otherwise would
