GUARD FORBIDDEN CITY.
Dynamite Found Near Gates Of Palace
Guard Doubled.

Pekin, Feb. 27.-The guards around
the Forbidden City have been doubled
since Saturday afternoon and all the
palaces and residences of high Of
ficials are especially guarded. The
police, who have hitherto carried ba-
tons, are now armed with rifles. All
the officials that are accessible either
refuse any information or profess ig-
norance of the reasons for the precau-
tions that have been taken, and as a
result many rumors are afioat. The
chief of police and other officials were
telephoned Saturday to report to the
palace and the display of force i'm
mediately followed their conference.
Possibly the only cause is the alarm
Of the empress dowager over the prev
alence of revolutionary rumors recent
ly. Two packages of dynamite have
been found in the streets outside the
gate leading to the palace. Apparent
ly they were dropped by some one
afraid to carry them. One report find
ing credence is that there is a quarrel
afoot within the palace between the
partisans of the empress dowager and
the emperor over the selection of an
heir to the throne, but it is not con
firmed.

Washington, Feb. 24.-PreCeded by
debate which indicated no hesitancy
but rather relish in taking action
against alleged railroad combinations,
the house agreed yesterday to the
Gillispie resolution directing
the interstate commerce commission
to make an immediate inquiry and re
port regarding alleged restraints OF
trade on the part of certain railways
regarding the handling of coal and
merchandise. The resolution is not
in the form it passed the senate and
will go back to the senate for second
action. The debate occupied an hour
and consisted of a succession of
speeches in denunciation of alleged re-
straining practices. Mr.. Grosvenor OF
Ohio supported it as a ''rebuke to the
recent puerile report which had been
made by certain railway official"
The house devoted the remainder Of
the day to minor matters and passed
several bills, among which was the
famous Mussel Shoals dam bill
