AMERICANS QUIT BUSINESS.
Boycott Conditions Menaced Trade
Situation Serious.

SAN FRANCISCO, December 2S-Ac-
cording TO latest reports received here from
the orient the boycott in China has be-
come 50 serious that number of Ameri-
can houses have closed their doors until the
conditions change. There arrived here yes
terday from the orient, on the steamer Cop
tic, R. Vansant, who represented local
firm at Shanghai
Mr. Vansant. in speaking of the boycott,
said:
THE situation in China is very serious
and there Is absolutely nothing In the
stories that the feeling against American
goods has lessened. 1t has now extended
to seventeen provinces, and in Canton and
Hankow the situation Is Just as bad as in
Shanghai The Americans are not doing
20 per cent of the business they formerly
did, and at Hongkong the Chinese were
purchasing Australian -four at a much
higher price than that quoted by the Amer
leans.
"The Chinese state that they will not
trade with the Americans until there Is a
modification of the exclusion laws. but this,
I told them was hardly probable. In the
event of the United States failing to pass a
law less stringent than the present one the
Chinese will adopt more drastic measures.
The boycott has developed into an anti-for-
eign feeling, and the British and German
business concerns in the orient are suffering
the loss of considerable trade"

RABBITS NOTABLE ADDRESS.
DR.. Hirsch Talked to Hull House Club
in Chicago.

CHICAGO, December 2s.-That much lit
erature of the day Is not worthy of atten-
ton, that modern philosophy Is the creed
alism'' Is undermining the moral founda-
lions of society, were some OF the conclu-
sions of DR.. Emil Hirsch In an address
before the Hull House Womans Club yes
terday.
Man Is much the same as he was a
thousand years ago." said DR.. Hirsch. ''Tha
same elemental passions, ambitions and ap-
petites obtain. They are the same as those
OF the animals Science has brought us to
realize this and our peep into the workshop
of nature has had tendency to brutalize
humanity.
Our knowledge that man is only one of
the company of brutes has led all men to
teach that man in all things Is merely a
brute. In their desire to unity the world
they have jumped at the conclusion that
man is no different from the other crea-
lures that tenant the earth. In their pas
sion to show him a beast philosophers
and authors have revelied in vice and de-
pravity, calling 1t real.
Society is drifting without compass.
It Is period of transition: the old canons
are gone and the new ones have not yet
been found. The latest announcement Of
modern philosophy is that you may do what
you want, but don't get caught at 1t. If
you do, commit suicide. In this philosophy
of brutality you have an explanation for
the fact that literature always paints life
as struggle between the forces of desire
and duty.
Never before In the history of the world
was there so great need OF masters-men
who will interpret life in terms of sanity
and sanctity, of duty and righteousness"
