Many persons have been cured OF

CONDITION OF TRANSVAAL
Eject of Chinese Miners Forms sub
ject of Debate In south
Africa.

JOHANNESBURG, Dec. 16.-(Special ca
blegram to The Bee. AS a result of Lord
Miners statement regarding the general
importation of Chinese, and Mr.. Mackar
ness reply to this statement, no end of
figures are being elucidated to show that
the population md the trade of the Trans
vaal have increased, The trouble appears
to be that accurate statistics of population
are not obtainable. but the figures of voters
on the rolls. compared with tho census
returns for April. 1904, together with the
statistics of building operations in johann
nesburg made public in tho speech Of the
Consolidated Investment company's chair
man, argue a striking increase. Then. too,
the increase in trade since the arrival of
the Chinese is shown by the returns of the
customs department and of the railways.
Another illustration of the increased pros
perity OF the general community is afforded
by the statistics of native labor issued by
the department OF native affairs. During
the seventeen months in which the Chinese
have been in the Transvaal, apart from
mine laborers employed in the chief bus-
ness centers of the colony the number of
natives has increased from 55973 to 79,4l1.
These natives earn an average of $l5 per
month and represent an increase of $3S5, 90
monthly paid in wages by the white COM
munity Another noticeable feature is that
while the native labor in the mines has
! shown considerable fuctuation during this
period, the natives employed outside the
mines have steadily Increased in number.

BOILING WATER IN A TUNNEL
Heat at Center of SimpIon is 113 De-
grees and May Cause
Trouble.

GENEVA, Dec. 16-(Special CablegranI 10
The Bee. THE official report on the condi-
ton OF the Sinplon tunnel, which has just
been made public, states that the tempera =
ture in the center is still 113 degrees and
that boiling water continues TO flow at the
rate of about seventy-eight gallons per sec
ond.
The engineers agreed that masonry vas
necessary in the central roof OF the tunnel,
as they doubted whether the natural vault
would bear the heat and enormous pres
sure of 2,145 yards of the mountain. Tho
question has been raised whether tho
masonry will prove sufficient support or
whether it will melt and by it's added
weight bring about a catastrophe.
Still another danger has been noted. As
the mountains have become covered with
snow the volume OF water in the tunnel
shows a tendency to increase. Piles Of rails
sleepers. telephone and telegraph wires are
lying at both entrances Of the tunnel and
in spite of all of the optimistic reports the
first train is not likely to steam through the
, tunnel before the last OF next summer.

Rock Island Announces that Business
is Improbable and Takes on
Provision Trains.

CHICAGO, Dec. 16.-' Rock Island rail-
road has gone out Of the dressed meats and
provision traffic and has withdrawn all
trains which were engaged in hauling these
products The announcement was made
this afternoon and the traffic officials of the
company gave notice that hereafter they
would not solicit nor accept any business
of this description from the packers. The
explanation of the abandonment OF this
traffic is that IL does not pay under exist
ing rates. It being stated that in the opinion
of the Rock Island officials no railroad can
haul packing house products between the
Missouri river points and Chicago at pres
ent rates and make money.

LONDON, Dec. ls-(special Cablegram TO

he was being lowered with the boy on his
arm shall never forESS-
