Il Street Journal says:

The Wall Street Journal says:
 There is to be a reorganization of the official staff of the Republic Iron and Steel company. A committee of three has the matter in charge. The committee will make its recommendations very shortly after which action will be taken by the board of directors.
 It is the intention to inject some new blood into the executive offices.
 The election of Frank Backus as presi- dent to succeed A. w. Thompson, Is a part of the programme, the way matters stand at present. MT. Thompson will probably be elected chairman of the board.
 In connection with moving the head of fees from Chicago to Youngstown, O., considerable weeding out the so-called deadwood will be done. It Is figured that this alone will result in savings amount ing to many thousands of dollars in the course of a year.
 It is believed that when the new regime takes hold more aggressive policy will be adopted and that an increase in bus- ness and earnings will be the outcome.

men been convicted of the numerous charges preferred against them, which proves conclusively that the indignities heaped upon them were maliciously trumped up.
 Every possible effort has been put forth to aid our striking miners, and to relieve as much as possible the self-sacrifices which the strike has brought about, and the amount expended up to the 3Oth of April was s365,2s4.53 for provisions.
 At Brookwood a peculiar incident hap pened where about twenty-seven men quit the employment of the Alabama Con- solidated company at that place in pref erence to paying the assessments, and secured employment elsewhere. several of them going to Pratt mines to work.
 "rhey then had papers issued against several of the officers and members of our organization. charging them with be- ing implicated In getting them "the twenty-seven men, discharged. One case has been tried, when, after hearing the testimony from both sides, the judge of Tuscaloosa court charged the jury to find in favor of the defendants, the plaintiffs having failed to make clear case. The jury found accordingly with out leaving the box
 nIniunctions have been issued against all members of the organization by the operators whose miners are on strike. We have been warned to appear before the federal judge to show cause why those ininnctlons which. when issued were temporarily intended. should not be made permanent Up to the present no hearing has been had, owing to the con- tested condition of the federal courts and attorneys. No negligence can be assigned 10 the fact that the cases have not yet been heard, however.

Norway's Secession.

In regard to the recent secession of Norway from Sweden, Mir Schartum- Schwensen talked most interestingly.
 Norway. at the opening of the nine teenth century, was an independent king dom, threatened with the domination of Denmark When the Napoleonic wars came on Napoleon sent Bernadatt into Sweden in 1894 and made him king of that country Berncdatti made terms with Norway by which the union was effected, though Norway kept it's identity as na- tion intact in many ways.
 Sweden however, began to dominate the nation, ignoring the rights of Norway under the union compact. The two peo- ples had different legislatures and diff ferent administration officers. In the foreign service, however, Norway was ignored. We had no diplomatic or con sular representatives. Besides this, also, Norway was for free trade and Sweden was for protection, and the swedish au- thorities built line of customs houses and levied tolls on all Norwegian pro- duets carried across the border into Sweden,

Official of Foreign Office
at Peking Gives Assurance
of Neutrality of Empire
COMPLAINTS OF RUSSIA
Says Cars Note to Powers

PreteXt for Compensation

PEKING, Jan. 2O.-A high official Of
the Foreign Office said to-day that the
neutrality of China was just as much
assured now as 1t had been at any time
during the war. The Chinese Govern
ment. he said, had taken every possible
precaution to fulfill the obligations of
a neutral, and he could only suppose
that the complaints of the Russian
Government in it's note to the powers
were intended to constitute pretexts in
the future for compensation for the
loss of Port Arthur.
The official emphatically denied that
there was any connection between the
question of neutrality and that of the
anti-foreign agitation In China, and as
an instance he pointed to the prompt
suppression of attempted riots at
Shanghai in relation to the punishment

England Is Sending Forty-Two OIL
GERS tn the Orient

Among yesterdays arrivals at the
Palace Hotel was Captain Donald S.
Vance of the British army, who is on
his way to the Orient, where he will
join the Japanese forces as a military
observer. The captain is one of forty
two officers who are being sent to
Japan on the same mission and are
going by different routes, some by the
Canadian Pacific, others by the South
ern Pacific and others by way of the
Santa Fe, in order not to excite spe-
cia1 attention.
The motive of the British Govern
ment in sending them to the Far East
at this particular stage OF the jap
aneSe- Russian war is said to be the
anticipation of a possibility of Great
Britain's becoming involved in the
present war. In that event the latter
country would be possessed of vaIu-
able knowledge of the scene of war
fact that would greatly aid her in
operating her troops in the Orient.
The instructions of the officers now
being sent to the front are 70 gather
every possible bit of information re-
garding the Typographical condition
of the Oriental country and to study
carefully the Russian methods and
means In warfare, with view to ac-
quainting the home government.
Captain Vance is a young officer and
recently married Philadelphia
heiress. His bride is accompanyina
him to the Orient and will remain in
one of the large Japanese cities while
her husband is fulfilling his instruc-
tions at the front.
