ANT|-FORE|GN
SENTIMENT FAST
GROWING IN CHINA

Washington. Sept u.-Mail advices re-
ceived here from China are disquieting
to Americans having financial interests
ir the orient. There is no abatement of
the anti-foreign feeling and the animosl-
ty is no longer confined to Americans
but includes all foreigners except Japan
ese
A formidable party has arisen and is
conducting an active propaganda, II Is
known as "Restorer OF Rights" and its
purpose is to drive the foreigners out OF
business In China and 90 that end to begin
by rendering valueless the foreign invest
ments.
In some quarters the Chinese govern
ment IL alleged " sympathize with the
movement and at any rate capitalists In
terested IN important concessions are
complaining that the Chinese officials are
deliberately destroying their holdings and
violating their agreements at every turn.
More than any other nationality, the
English. are said to be injuriously affected
by this attitude OF the Chinese govern
ment
The movement 10 destroy or to regain
control OF concessions held by foreigners
is said to have begun when the famous
Hankow- Canton railroad concession was
regained by the Chinese government by
purchase from the American concession
aires and since then every new enterprise
in the way OF public UTILITIES In China
has been officered and manned by Chi
nese themselves, foreign experience and
direction being utilized only TO the point
where the Chinese were able 10 acquire
the knowledge necessary 70 operate them.
It-4s-khewn that some-of the English
business interests are uniting in strong
appeals TO their government to adopt
stronger attitude and to protect them in
their Chinese enterprises.

WHY DIDN'T Mr.. PIERCE
SIT At THE HEARING q?
Continued from Page one.)

Chairman Luther was present and Chief
Matthews was also there in full uniform;
but this time Commissioner Lewis j.
Pierce was not present. and no word
came from him to explain his absence.
At his residence early in the morning IL
was stated that he was out OF town on
business, and It was not known when he
would return.
After waiting until after 2:30 without
receiving any sign from the missing com
missioner without whom there was no
quorum OF the police board, Chairman
Luther reluctantly continued the hearing
until next Friday afternoon.
II is hoped that Commissioner Harold
]. Gross will be in the city by thta time
and ready for business and that he and
Chairman Luther can and will take the
responsibility of disposing OF the cases.
as IL is not believed that either is dis
posed TO dodge his plain duty in the
premises.
Chief Matthews had ample notice OF the
fact that the first hearing was to be held
last Tuesday, but failed 10 file the speci-
fications with the board. according TO the
announcement made at that time. This,
of course. necessitated delay.
Commissioner Pierce helped Ak the date
for the continued hearing and then let
business" take him out OF town, as if
the ctys business, for which he is paid
at the rate OF nearly so per day, and tho
convenience OF those who are summoned
10 such hearings were nothing at all. He
did not even sign the police payrolls yes
terday.
II the chief OF police and Commissioner
Pierce. the man who sat at the hearing,
were at all unfriendly, the fact that II
has been due 10 them that the two hear
ings have been put off might be consid-
cred at least n coincidence: but they have
been close friends for some time.
Persons who do not see In the charges
which are somewhat sensational. any rea-
son for the delays nor for apprehension
on the part Of one. or both. OF the men
accused profess TO believe that the
charges will not amount 10 much.
Il Is certain. however. that they Will
be disposed of promptly after Commis-
sioner Gross returns.
The contortions OF the Colt-Perry ma
cline organ I'm failing TO account Tor the
postponemcnts are amusing To those who
know the real cause and the reasons why
the organ seeks TO shield those response
bic for the delay. when the first hear
ing was postponed. solely because Chief
Matthews had failed to file the specihca-
tions with the board. the organ dismissed
A nv saving; owing TO the fact that
the charges were not specihed the near
ing was adjourned
When Yesterdays hearing had To go
over because Commissioner Pierce did not
appear the organ made this simple state
ment shielding its friend. Mr.. Pierce.
Yesterday afternoon the police COM
mission was to have held meeting NJ
police Headquarters. but IL was postponed
until Friday afternoon at O'Clock.
