THE CHINESE QUESTION
President Will Speak of 1t On His
Southern Tour.
Taft, Receatiy From tho Orient,
Warns Administration Tint CHI
ness Must lie Appeared.

Washington, Oct 7.--As an evidence
OF the importance which the president
attaches to the Chinese exclusion ques-
ton and the Chinese boycott on Amer
lean goods, II Is learned that he has
decided to make II the principal feat
ure OF one OF the first speeches he VIII
deliver on his tour to the south TINS
month. He will devote much OF his
speech at Raleigh, N G., to the sub
feet, and will set forth the situation
and his views fully.
Secretary Taft has warned the adj
ministration that adequate steps must
be taken to placatc the Chinese, else
more serious results will follow. The
administration has done all It could to
soften the enforcement OF the law, but
the opinion is said to be held by Secre-
tary Taft that amendment of the law
will be necessary.
The Pacific coast states will, II Is
likely, oppose any relaxation of the ex-
ClusiOn laws, and Will summon labor
organizations of the east 10 their sup
port The southern manufacturing
states will be anxious to please the
Chinese, and may be expected to yield
assent to plans for letting down tho
bars Tho prospect of i big market for
cotton goods in Manchuria. following
the resumption of peaceful industries
in that harassed section, Is expected to
tempt the cotton manufacturing states
Secretary Metcalf is Il Californian
and has the Views of a California man
on the subject OF Chinese labor and

speculation to state that his views on
the subject, which are pronounced

MANY FRATERNAL ORDERS.
Growth of Such Organizations in Re
cent Years Has Been Aston
ishing.

In the ten years from 1894 to 1904
| the population Of the United States in
creased about 20 per cent. The latest
census figures do not seem to Justify
the claim of so high a rate of gain,
but the immigration since the latest
general enumeration has been enor-
nous. The estimate given may be
slightly 100 liberal, but not much, says
the Cleveland Leader.
In 1894 the total membership OF the
principal fraternal organizations of the
United States and Canada, including
many which had less than 10000 mem
bers, was about 4G00,O 900. Last year
Il was S,27S,73S.
The increase of about 3,67S,00 was
equivalent to gain of nearly 50 per
cent.
The rate of growth In the member
ship of fraternal organizations was GER
taInly more chan three times as great
as the rate Of inCrC ..5e in the popula-
ton Of the United States. II was gain
well distributed. The increase in the
numerical strength of some OF the
great fraternal societies was approx
lmately as follows.
