HONG KONG, June Is.
The revolutionary movement in the
provinces OF Kiangsi and KwangtunG
has assumed serious dimensions.
The rebels have destroyed various Eu-
ropean missions in the vicinity Of Lien
chau, but the German and British mis-
sionaries are safe at Swatow.
According to an official report from
Swatow, the rebels have secured a guam
tity Of arms and ammunition. All towns
and villages in the disaffected provinces
are being visited by revolutionaries who
urge the people to rise and overthrow
the present government.
Although the revolutionarics have is-
sued a proclamation disclaiming the In
tentlon Of harmlng Europeans, It is fear
ed that the movement may assume later
a distinctly anti-foreign character.
The viceroy Shun has sent 1900 native
soldiers to swatow to reinforce the loca
garrison and the police. Two Chinese
gunboats are also being dispatched. nne
the authorities at Swatow have been or.
dered to disarm all suspicious persons.
Representative Of the European powers
have warned the Chinese officials Of The
necessity Of protecting foreigners.
The rebels declare that they will kill al
government officials and destroy all Off.

A pathetic account OF the tragic death
Of Greek priest comes from Cardiff
where early on Friday morning his body
was recovered from the Glamorgan
Canal. The victim. Marcus Cokolaras.
came from Smyrna, and for some weeks
he had been filling minor offices at the
Greek church at Cardin.
His host says that when he first camo
to England his hair reached to the middle
Of his back. Street urch!ns annoyed him
considerably by laughing at him. and
once. when he was in a coffee tavern in
London some youngsters surreptitiously
tied his hair to the back Of his chair.
When he came to Cardiff local youths
also poked fun at him. and one day he
mentioned the matter to his landlord, who
suggested that he should have his hair
cut. He did so and ever since he had
worried over 1t. because he could not re-
turn to his own country and hope to be-

his hair cropped His host thought this
had preyed on his mind, but neither he
nor his wife suspected that he contem-
plated suicide.

turned verdict of found drowned, there
being no evidence to show how the mar

man wore lounge suit. muddy boots and

LONDON, June Is.
Under tho tito, IN Gigantic Scandal"
the National Review this month contains
an amazing explanation Of the evident
friendship between General Botha and
the members Of the home government.
The National Review declares that a.
bargain was made between General Botha;
and the government. by which he agreed
to repatriate the Chinese coolies now in
South Africa In return for promise that
the government would guarantee q Trans
vaal loan Of GS.0O0 900. Tho following are
extracts from the article: Ss5
con his arrival IN England. General
Botha was approached by the Colonial
Office and asked whether he would not. In
return for Swaziland and past faVors,
pledge himself to the repatriation Of the
Chinese coolies as their lndentures ex-
pired. He replied he could not mako any
undertaking OF the kind.
when this answer filtered out and be-
came known to the Liberal rank and file,
a large number of members Of Parlia-
ment, supporters Of the ministry, signed
a memorial stating that they would vote
/ against the government II the licenses of
the Chinese coolies were renewed. The
ministers, finding themselves in a tight
| place, not being willing to face their own
deluded and angry supporters. and beng
unable to coecce General Botha. had q
happy thought.
1.-THE Transvaal was talking Of raising
loan Of five millions; they would pledge
the credit Of Great Britain, guarantee the
loan, offer General Botha to save him I
per cent, equal to $4,000 a year, on con-
dition that the 5000 Chinese whose II
censes expire this summer should be sent
back to China. This Is the shad y bargain
which unde. nressure Of q party revolt
has just been concluded, and in which
the good name of Gleat Britain is disas'
trously involved. Il,

LONDON. June Is.

TO the Alarchese yincenzo Pcruzzi. the
head OF an ancient family OF Florentines

English lady Is far more important than
the prosecution of a claim against the

The marquis Is Just now in London

and while he does not deny that his ans
cestors lent money to the first three kings

beautiful English woman his wife. and
