al regulation of insurance.

Western Railroads Establish Bureau

Western Railroads Establish Bureau
for Handling Business.
Chicago, Jan 15.-General passenger
agents of Western lines, after three
days OF almost continuous discussion,
have agreed upon plan for the organi-
cation OF general colonization bureau
to handle the details OF the issuance OF
certificates and tickets for land and i'm
migration business.
Reports from those who attended the
Western Passenger Association meetings
during the debates on this proposition
indicate that there were some repre-
sentatives of railroads in the conference
who were in favor of abolishing the
privileges the colonization departments
have found so valuable in building up
communities along the railroads.
I'VE were fearful said a passenger
agent of one Western road, "that the
Issuance OF certificates would be abro-
gated and that every Western states
development would be materially affect
ed by the shutting off of the homeseek
ers' colonization certificate provisions. p
According to one OF the passenger
agents, the bureau will handle the COL
onization business for all the roads in
the Western Passenger association, and
there will be no elimination in the
volume of business.

BOXER COIN FOR COLLEGES.


Senator Piles, of Washington VIII In
| troduce Such Bill.
| Seattle, Wash, Jan. 15.--United
States Senator 8. III. Piles viii intro
duce In congress bill appropriatina
the $50, 900, 900 paid this country by
China AZ damages In the Boxer upris-
ing to dsfray the expenses Of Chinese
students to be educated In American
colleges. A part of this sum. 1t Is pro-
posed, shall be expended in schools
conducted by Americans In China.
A bill prepared under the direction
OF the faculty Of the University OF
Washington has been forwarded to Sem
ator Piles, and the cooperation OF coast
educational institutions has been asked
in the campaign. Out OF this move
ment, 1t is believed, will grow some
thing satisfactory to China, and result
ing in abandoning the boycott against
American goods.
The measure was agrees gopn at a
meeting OF the faculty of the UNIVERSE
ty OF Washington, with A. w. Bash,
promoter OF the Canton Hankow and
other Chinese railroads, and an init
mate friend of many high Chinese Off
Gals, and DR.. w. A. p. Martin, an ed
ucator long employed In Chinese
schools, who came West to welcome
the high commission Just landed at San
Francisco. Mr.. Bash has been official
ly designated by President Roosevelt
and Secretary of State Root. Mr.. Bash
started the movement on the coast be-
cause he has been resident here, and
because he believes the Pacific Coast
states originating the movement would
strengthen the fight. For that reason
the cooperation OF Oregon and Cali
fornia educators was asked.
Under the plan adopted here, the in
demnity money would be spent First,
10 invite Chinese students to the Unit
ed States and provide for their educa-
ton in this country; second, to aid
worthy American colleges already es-
tablished in China; third. to provide
for helping Chinese students at the
American consulates in China.
