rigidly adhered to America will be
forced to forego any exclusion at all.
Such expressions have been immedi-
ately denied by Mr.. Rockhill at Pekin.
Although directed primarily against
Americans the feeling of ill-will that
seems to be growing in various parts
Of the empire is interpreted by orien-
talists to have far deeper meaning.
In a word, it is declared to be anti
foreign and there are indications that
all foreigners, with the possible ex-
ception of Japanese, will soon be as
keenly affected as are Americans,
Informal representatives regarding
the Chinese situation already have
been exchanged between some of the
European powers. but thus far this
country has not called foreign nations
into consultation, because there is 6
very general feeling among the Euro
pean powers that the Chinese are un'

who has been prosecuting the case at
the present session of congress, at the
close of the proceedings today.
The defense has not announced the
number of witnesses it expects to call
nor when 1t will be ready to proceed.
The hearing today dealt with alleged
Mormon interference in business af-
fairs and with the endowment cere-
mony. Three witnesses testified that
they had taken the obligation admin
istered and as they recalled 1t there
was a variance in the form as it relat-
ed to an agreement to avenge the
blood of the prophets. Henry w.
Lawrence, of Salt Lake, said he had
| been called upon to promise to
avenge Joseph Smith, Hiram Smith,
David Patten and Farley p. Pratt, all
| church leaders who met death at the
! hands of mobs This witness declared
! that no Mormon could go through the
endowment house without taking the
oath.
Chairman Burrows said today that
he would insist on concluding the in-
vestigation and making a report to the
senate this session.

New York, Feb. S.-The special
committee appointed BY the trustees
of the New York Life Insurance conf
pany to investigate the affairs of the
company, today made a partial re-
port of its labors to the directors.
This report deals only with the rela-
tions of Andrew Hamilton, the legls-
lative agent with the company, and Is
severe arraignment of his methods.
John A. Mccall, late president OF
the New York Life, also comes in for
share of the committees criticism
He is blamed for his methods in con-
nection with the bureau of taxation
and legislation" during the last ten
years. and for allowing Hamilton to
pay out vast sums without proper
accounting. Special attention is called
to remittances of 100000 to Mr.. Me-
| Cali in London, and $1S4,50O to Ham
! ilton in Paris in 1900. The purposes
of these remittances the committee
says, it has been unable to ascertain
and recommends that proceedings be
instituted against Hamilton and Nc
Call for an accounting or repayment
The committee adds on this POM
that application has been made TO MT
Mccall for information regarding the
transactions. but that it Is informed
by Mr.. McCalFs family that his ply
sical and nervous condition is sucr
that the subject cannot be taken up a
present. AS to Mr.. Hamilton's health
which has been reported as being bad
the committee says it has been in
formed that he was physically able t'
travel. and has exerted every enort t'
induce him 10 return TO make ful
disclosure of his payments, disburse
ments and transactions, but withou
success. The committee also hold
both Mccall and Hamilton responsible
for $4,000 advanced to Hamilton Il
nav the state tax and which the com
mittee declares was used by Hamlltol
for his own purpose.
The committee is advised That boti

agents in China regarding the rapid
Increase of feeling against Americans
and things American, as expressed In
edicts issued by local authorities in
various parts of the empire. For six
