MORS INFI AMED BY DRINK
ATTEMPT TO BURN CITY

dents OF the city say that they received
no orders TO remain indoors.
The present trouble began at Lodz
last Tuesday after the funeral OF the
victims of .the conflict between troops
and terrorists the previous Sunday. The
Christians were permitted to bury their
dead but the Jews were prohibited
from doing so, and the police secretly
inferred the bodies Of the Jews at
night. which excited Indignation. and
terrorist riots were initiated on Thurs
day. The most serious phase OF the
rioting developed when the crowd de-
liberately pillaged liquor shops, and
numbers OF persons. inhamed by drink,
led a mob of at least $4,000 to further
and more serious attacks. Police and
military were attacked wherever they
appeared in small force and many In
dividual members were killed
After pillaging the liquor stores the
crowd set fire TO them and prevented
the fremen exiting nguishing the blazes.
This was repeated deliberately at
many places
On Friday the fury OF the mob found
full vent and even children, caught by
the contagion, were seen kissing dags
and heard swearing that they were
ready to die for liberty.
A Jewish girl mounted box in the
market square and addressed an i'm
mense crowd. Suddenly the police ap-
peared, fired volley and the girl fell
dead.
Market gardeners coming in were
stopped and their carts used In build
ing barricades. Wires were stretched
in front of these barricades and the
cavalry was unable TO charge. Mean
while the mob had secured arms and
revolvers were freely used.
Finally the military secured the
upper hand. but not without consider
abIe losses to themselves and fearful
slaughter to the rioters. The soldiers
exhibited the utmost carelessness as to
whether they killed peaceful persons or
rioters. and as consequence many
women and children were among the
dead. The streets ON Friday resembied
battlefield. The houses were barrf-
catled with boards and mattresses and
for hours volleys and Individual shots

Boycott in Orient Is
Regarded as False
Alarm.
Trade Expert Says 1t Would
Injure the Yellow Race
More Than America
Special Dispatch to Tn. Call

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING,
WASHINGTON, June 24-The President
Will on Monday issue a statement con-
corning the modifying of the Chinese ex-
clusion act. The statement will explain
the position of the United States and
show that it is not the desire of the
people here TO do injustice to the Chi
nese- The truth of the matter is that
the complaint of the Chinese Is a good
oeal of d false alarm" America could
do far greater injury TO TIE Chinese by
protesting their goods than China could
by bOycotting United States manufact-
-4lRes. The principal shipments to China
from this country are mineral oil and
cotton and both are absolutely necessary
to the Chinese dealers and manufacturers.
One of the students of foreign trade
who is considered by the Government as
one Of the best posted men on that sub
jcct in the country. is Harold Bolce,
librarian of the Treasury Department.
Bolee says:
we nave some trade with the Orient,
but it is ridiculously small Thirty-eight
per cent of this trade consists of mineral
oil. Oar sales of manufactures is so small
that it is not worth while talking about
them. The figures as given in consular
reports are probably correct, but mis-
leading.
our trade with China has been greatly
exaggerated. China buys great eargoes
from other countries and the total trade
with China nets the American per capita
only cents per year revenue
The record here shows that nearly all
OF the business of the Pacific Coast with
the Orient is transshipped. There is some
-four and canned goods business, but
most Of the so-called trade is with kero-
sene ships from New York
The war between Japan and Russia is
accountable for the increase of shipments
TO The Orient from the United States and
this increase is not. as generally sup
posed. the result of a national demand

URGES ACTION BY PRESIDENT.
Portland Chamber of Commerce Is Dis
turbed by China's Threat.

WASHINGTON, June 24-That the
threats of the commercial guilds of China
TO boycott American goods has raised a
serious question in the minds of this
countrys business men and merchants is
Indicated by a telegram received by Pres
ident Roosevelt from the Portland. Or.
Chamber of Commerce. The President
authorized the publication of the tele-
gram. which follows:

to this country's relations with China,

legations. Secondly. our commercial in
terests are seriously threatened by the
manner In which our present laws regard
ing the admission of Chinese into this
country are executed which seem in their
practical working to contravene treaty
Obligations. We earnestly recommend
that a more liberal Interpretation of the
laws be enjoined upon the immigration
authorities, and meantime the announce
ment of the appointment by your excel
lency of commission TO inquire into the
present exclusion laws and the methods
of their enforcement with instructions to
recommend TO Congress such legislation
as snail promote increased harmony be-
tween the two nations would provide a
beneficial effect. We are advised to-day
by cable from Bongkong that immediate
action is necessary by our Government or

BERLIN, June PA fact which has
attracted attention is that many of
Emperor Williams kilograms lately
have been countersigned by Chancellor
Won Bulow. This apparently occurs in
all cases where the Emperor's tele-
grams have political or public inter-

Bulow. since his elevation to princeIy
rank, has impressed the Emperor with
the difficult position he (Von Bulow)
was placed ia before the Reichstag by
the imperial kilograms for which he, as
Chancellor. must be responsible. but
which he has never seen until pub
