CHINESE TWIST TAIL
OF BRITISH LION
Formidable Party Has Arisen to Drive
Foreigners Out of Business and
Render Their investments
VaIueless
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 11.-Mail ad-
vices received here from China are dis
quieting to Ameficans having financial
interests in the orient.
There is no abatement of the anti
foreign feeling, and the animosity is no
longer confined to Americans, but in
cludes all foreigners except Japanese.
A formidable party has arisen and is
conducting an active propaganda. 1t
is known as ''restorer of rights" and
its purpose is to drive the foreigners
out of business in China, and to that
end begin by rendering valueless the
foreign investments.
In some quarters the Chinese govern
ment is alleged to Sympathize with the
movement, and at any rate capitalists
interested in important concessions are
complaining that, the Chinese officials
ings and violating their agreements at
every turn.
More than any other nationality the
English are said to be injuriously af-
fected by this attitude of the Chinese
government.
Use Foreign Talent
The movement to destroy or regain
control of concessions held by for
famous Hankow-Canton railway con-
cession was regained by the Chinese
government by purchase from the
American concessionaires, and since
then every new enterprise in the way of
utilities in China has Leen officered and
manned by the Chinese themselves, for
eign experience and direction being
utilized only to the point where the
Chinese were able to acquire the
knowledge necessary to operate them.
The English are complaining that in
violation of an agreement the Chinese
government is constructing a railroad
from Shanghai southwark with the
deliberate purpose of destroying the
value of an English concession and
greatly injuring Hongkong, and there
are allegations that mining concessions
granted to British subjects have been
held up and the concessionaires en-
barra ssed.
Some of the great British business in
terests are uniting in strong appeals to
their government to adopt a stronger
attitude and to protect them in their
Chinese enterprises.

WASHINGTON. Sept. lin view
of the indifference shown by the Amer
lean people toward contributing money
for the assistance of the sufferers from
the Valparaiso earthquake and fire 1t
is probable that the president will in a
short time issue another proclamation

this country to the distressing state of
affairs in Valparaiso and asking for
contributions.
The Red Cross headquarters in this
city today announced that they had up
to date received between $4,000 and
$4,000, but as yet the majority of the
branch societies have not been heard
from.

Although the convention was sched-
uled to convene at IL o'clock this morn
ing, it was not until 11:35 o'clock that
Timothy Spellacy, chairman of the
Democratic state central committee,
called the assemblage to order.
Many Of the most prominent men of
the convention were in the hotel lob
bies, headquarters and rooms, holding
conferences, and Chairman Spellacy
announced that a large contingent had
not had time to return from Santa Cruz
where they attended the Native Sons
celebration, hence recess was declared.
1t was 2:15 o'clock before the con-
vention was called to order. Mayor
Beard was introduced and he gave a
cordial address of welcome. There was
n noticeable absence of an invocation
or prayer Of any kind with which con-
ventions are usually opened.
You are assembled here to perform
grave and important duties,'' said
Mayor Beard, land 1 do not intend to
infringe on your time with long ad-
dress of welcome. On behalf OF Sacra-
mento 1 invite you to partake of the
hospitality of the city l trust that
that your labors will be of lasting bene-
fit to the state.''
speIlacy's Vigorous Speech
A vigorous speech was made by State
Central Committeeman Spellacy in his
opening address.
"The time has arrived" said Mr..
Spellacy, when the Democratic party
of this state must name a strong man
for governor.
There is no doubt as to the results,
as Democratic governor will un-
doubtedly be the next chief executive
of the state.
1T is necessary to the welfare of our
government that Democratic principles
should prevail. For a party to succeed
it must be united, and all Democrats
must be friends.
II feel that we must enact laws
which will hold the corporations with
in bounds. We must insist that the
corporations deal fairly with the people.
"I believe that the Democratic party
should take an advance stand on all
questions.
"One of these is the warfare of mod
ern times. While I respect the soldier
1 condemn the system which compels
the soldier to go to war. l hope that
the Democratic party will stand for
arbitration among the great powers"
Cheer Bryan's Name
Spellacy then made a reference to-
William jennings Bryan, which was
greeted with prolonged cheers.
At this juncture the Sacramento
delegation announced that it had Sc
lected for the purpose of expediting
the organization the following conven-
tion officers: Secretary, Edward Leake
of Woodland; assistant secretaries, j.

tailed Instructions from him as to what

Administration Busy
The prime object of the administra-
tion at present is to get at the details,
which is no easy task. Particularly
is 1t desired to know the precise
strengh of the revolutionary sentiment
in Cuba and the relative powers of the
government and the insurgents here.
fastening From Europe
Mr.. Morgan, the American minister
to Cuba, is reported to be Fastening
from Europe, where he has been on a
vacation, to Cuba, and meanwhile Mr..
Sleeper, the secretary of the American
legation at Havana, Is supplying the
state department with daily bulletin
stating such facts as he is able to
gather there.
1t is realized, however, that Mr..
Sleeper is bound to accept the official
rendition of the rally collisions between
President Palma's troops and the in
surgents in the field. He has no means
of securing the rebels statement of
these same occurrences, and in the
view of the officials, there is good rea-
son to believe that the whole truth Is
not disclosed by either side.
1t is the purpose of the administra-
tion to proceed with great de1iberation
in dealing with the Cuba question and
it is said on the higest authority that
there would be no intervention by the
United States unless the rebellion as
sumed the proportions of a general
conflagration.
1t was further stated that there had
been no application from any Of the
foreign governments for the United
States government to step in and pre-
serve the DeaCe.

GOLOFIELD MINES
CLOSE ON ISSUE
ULTIMATUM DELIVERED to-
INDUSTRIAL WORKERS
Unless Miners Union Regulates the
Newly Organized Body Enforced
Idlness viii Prevail lndef-
inltely at the Diggngs
Rv A ssnclafed Presa.

BY ASSOClateu tIeSSs
GOLDFIELD New, Sept. t1.-Every
producing mine in the Goldfeld dis
trict was closed down today and every
producing lease is also shut down,
under agreement with the owners of
the ground that their leases would be
extended the time of their enforced
idleness.
This action was taken as the result
of a special meeting of miners yester-
day held to consider the question as to
whether the Miners union would still
continue to support the Industrial
Workers of the World, an organization
of non-skilled labor that has been very
active.
Many of the mines closed down for
the afternoon shift to allow the miners
to attend, believing that full at
tendance would result in the repudia-
ton of the Industrial Workers of the
World by the miners organization.
The meeting was held in the open
arena lately erected for the Gans-Nel-
son fight and was attended by 1900
miners.
The meeting lasted all afternoon and
late into the evening, with the result
that the miners voted to continue to
recognize the Industrial Workers.
Under Federation Auspices
This latter organization is under the
auspices of the Western Federation Of
Miners. 1t was organized to bring
all unskilled laborers into a union to
be controlled by the Miners union.
The Industrial Workers of the World
exists only in communities where the
Miners union is strong and was form
ed, presumably, to back UP any fight
in which the Miners union might be
engaged.
There have been no differences be-
tween the mine owners and miners in
this district. But the Industrial Work
ers of the World commenced boycott
upon local daily newspaper which
is owned by the same person who owns
the Tonopah daily paper.
This latter paper had serious trouble
with the Industrial Workers of the
World in Tonopah. A boycott was
started against the Tonopah paper and
taken up against the Goldfeld paper
by the Goldfeld branch Of the Indus
trial Workers.
Harass Publisher
The management of the papers was
harassed to the extent of its man.
ayers and it's employees being threaten
ed with deportation.
Citizens soon became irritated over
the situation and fist fights and heated
discussions were common occurrences.
Finally some OF the unions, notably
the carpenters and paper hangers, got
out into the street and protected the
men trying to sell the paper in ques-
ton and backed them up with guns.
This occurred only one night and
the paper again failed to appear upon
the streets as during the past entire
month.
The town and camp were all stirred
up, and 1t was then that some of the
mine owners notified the officers of the
Miners union that the union would
have to withdraw it's support from the
Industrial Workers of the World or
the mines would be shut down.
This called for the meeting held yes
terday and which resulted in a vote
to stand back of the l. w. W
