WING K0W SAFE FROM
THE JAPANESE GUNS.

st. Petersburg, April S.-A CORE
spondent at Wing Kow says the opin-
ion prevails there that the Japanese
will not lombard that place because
80 per cent. of the population is made
at war with Japan and be-
cause a shell from the Japanese
ships would be sure to strike the resi-
dence of the United States consul, who
is safeguarding Japanese interests.
The same correspondent humorously
describes the speculation among the
British correspondents there as to
whether the victorious Japanese, after

in China or go on to Irkutsk.

CHILD LABOR LAWS BROKEN.
Tennessee Is Complaining of Their
Disregard.

Knoxville, Tenn, April S.-A move
ment was started here to-day to Sc
cure a stricter compliance with the
child labor laws in Tennessee. Re-
ports made to Typographical Union
No. Ill showed that the law was be-
ing openly violated In many cities of
the state and that the great drawback
to the enforcement of the statute is
the false representations made by
parents of children in regard to the
ages of their offspring.
The Legislature will be asked to pass
a law requiring physicians to register
each birth in public records, so that no
opportunity for classifying will be left
open. The committee will draw up a
petition for distribution throughout
the state, addressed to Gov. Frazier,
state officials and the Legislature, urg-
ing strict compliance with the law.
The claim is made that children
from to 10 years old find employment
in many of the mills.
