ROYAL Arcanum Affairs.

Boston, Sept. 27.--The plans of the
committee representing professors in
Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylya-
MIA, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Connec-
ticut, Michigan, Ohio. Indiana, and
Illinois, against the new and increased
rates of the Royal Arcanrm, are nearly
at head. Legal action will be begun
in Massachusetts within few days.
The executive committee of the Supreme
Council, recognizing that litigation is
inevitable, have engaged counsel. On
the other hand John Z. Leahy, one of
the most prominent lawyers of Boston,
and the Hon. Huge Hirsch, of Brook
Ign, N. Y, both members of the order,
and strong opponents of the new rates,
have been appointed by the committee
to have full power to represent protes-
tors in all legal matters. Both men are
hard at work in preparing for the COM
ing battle, which will probably have an
effect on fraternal insurance organize
tions, and fraternal legislation through
out the country. As a sort of preimi-
nary to the coming battle, there will be
held in fremont Temple next Thursday
evening, a mass meeting of Royal Ar
cauumites from all over Massachusetts,
at which the leaders of the protest will
set forth their ideas.

Virginia VS.. West Virginia.

1t is believed that Virginia will short
ly take steps in the Supreme Court of
the United States to force West Virginia
to make provision for the payment of
her alleged part OF the much-discussed
State debt. Belief that litigation will be
instituted is based on the fact that Major
Holmes Conrad, counsel for Brown Bros.
and the Virginia bondhOlders, has re-
Gently returned from London, where he
held a conference with the Messrs. Brown.
A conference between the members of the
Virginia DeOt Commission and repre-
sentatives OF the repositories of the bonds
has been held in Richmond.

Richmond and the President.

Especial Dispatch to the Alexandria Gazette.l
Richmond, Va, Sept. T.-Much dis
satisfaction is felt here on account Of the
meagre arrangements being made for the
reception of President Roosevelt. The
affair is in the hands of council COM
mittee and prominent people are having
little TO do with it. Another feature
which is provoking criticism, is the fact
that while Richmond caterers bid to
serve the $40 plate luncheon. the con-
tract went to Washington man. The
President directs that he be under heavy
guard during his entire visit here.

For New Chinese Exclusion Pact.

There will be a resumption of
the negotiations between China and
the United States of a treaty relating
to the EXCLUSION of Chinese from the
United States. When the Chinese
boycott against American goods began
negotiations we're 10 progress, but pub
lie feeling in China became so intense
that it was decided to break of negotia-
tons temporarily.
The old exclusion treaty expired some
time ago, and China refused to extend
its provisions, as provided in the treaty,
but decided to negotiate new conven-
iton, hoping to get some concessions
from the United States.

AngIo.Japanese Treaty.

London, Sept. 27.-The opinion of
Europe in regard to the new Anglo-Jsp-
anese treaty, the term Of which were an
nouDced yesterday, seems to be that
it is directed almost entirely against
Russia, as no other power is likely to
come within its scope because it is limit
ed 10 the far East and India. The COM
mon view is that England will gain more
through the treaty than will Japan.
