CHINA A WORRY, NOT JAPAN
When Dowager Empress Dies, Fear Is
Expressed, Partition of Empire
May Be Attempted.

Washington, Aug Tt is China
and not even remotely Japan that has
aroused the concern Of Washington
authorities in connection with choos-
ing the Pacific as the next practice
ground for the big battleship squad
ron, according to deductions of some
students of affairs in the far east.
China as an entity is in a condition as
precarious as the health of the dow
ager empress, and when the failing
health of the latter leads to it's inevi-
table end, the empire win face crisis
that will make it wise for the United
States to have a presentable naval
force within easy sailing.
Little regarding the situation sug
gested by the above statements has
been said in official and diplomatic cir
Giles, but commercial interests profess
to have been keen observers of what
is going on. From sources connected
with the latter comes the report that
some time ago the administration here
was quietly appraised that the health
Of the dowager empress was failing
fast, and that when she dies China
will become the prey of plotters seek
ing to overthrow the Manchu dynasty.
At the same time the powers are
deemed likely to take advantage of the
situation by going in for a partition
of the empire, with the possible clos
ing of the open door that means so
much to America. and toward secur-
ing which American statesmen have
accomplished so much. 1t has been
pointed out that when trouble comes
the nation that has the strongest navy
in Pacific waters will be likely to have
most influence with China. The
knowledge that a crisis might be
reached at any time is believed tc
have had a great deal to do in de
termining the plans for sending the
battleship squadron to the Pacific as
soon as possible.

from there at target, at which his
friend was supposed to be aiming
when the signal was given. the friend
firing wide so as not to show any
surplus of bullet marks. On one oc

and his shot rang out after the rest OF
the squad had ceased. This. OF course

ties and on investigation Spree was
discovered, taken to the guardhoust
and his name struck froII the rolls o.
the competition. He now awaits tria

GOOD REVENUE FROM FORESTS

Receipts for Fiscal Year Double Those
of Preceding Year.
The total receipts from business in
the national forests for the fiscal year
ending June so were $1,529, 917.93,
more than double the receipts for the
preceding year, and the sum which
goes to the states and territories by
law, to swell the county school and
road funds where national forests are
located-10 per cent of the totals
also more than doubled, reaching the
considerable sum of S153, 991.79. Rem
tails of grazing and other privileges
are the chief sources of income.
There is food for thought in the
fact that, except for Arizona, Califor-
mia and Utah, the states which de-
rive the greatest benefit from the re-
turns of forest management are Col
