THE CHINESE PROBLEM.
When the Empress oowaaer Ceases
to Rule the FloWry Kingdom
Chaos May Reign.

Toxic, Aug 19.-Private dispatches
from Pekin forecast a gloomy future
owing to the unsettled state OF poll
tics there, caused by the absence of a
ruling mind powerful enough to cope
with the situation. The empress
dowager, who heretofore has been sole
mistress Of affairs, is now in critical
state of health. Her policy SO far has
been to play one minister against an
other in order to prevent the concen
tration of power in any single hand
Inasmuch as the empress is incapaci
tated by an incurable disease, and al
the historical animosity of the Man
chus and Mandarins increasing the
prevailing state of affairs in the Pekin
government constitutes a baffline
problem.
Whatever compromise may be EFF
fected between the progressive Yuan
Shi Kai and the conservative Chang
tn Tung, there appears little hope Of
realizing the complete stability Of
Picking authority SO imperatively nee
essary to the integrity Of the empire
and the peace of the Far East In gen
eral.
While a fresh guarantee Of peace
has appeared in the form of the Rus
sian-Japanese entente, peace Will DC

JAps PLAN SEAL RAID.
The Sealing schooners Intend to
Make a Concerted Attack on the
Rookeries in North Pacific.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. 16.-The seal;
ing schooner Vera from the North Pa
cific reports that an arrangement has
been reached by number of Japan
ese sealing schooners, each of which
carries one or more machine guns to
unite in making a concerted raid on
the Pribly.on Islands with the inten,
ton of looting the seal rookeries OF
St. Paul and st. George Islands and
also the salt houses for the purpose
of Selling the pelts stored therein.
The Vera reports also having spoken
the Japanese sealer Kinsei and
learned that she would take part in
the raids. The sealers on board said
that SO schooners were to come to
the Behring sea this winter, and would
make a dash on the islands, club the
seals on the rookeries, and loot the
salt houses. The United States cruis
er Buffalo will be dispatched to pre-
vent these raids.

THE FINANCIAL REVIEW
Decline in Prices Reached Lowest
Point in Years.
Sufficient Water Has Been Squeezed
Out to Bring Dividends Up
to Seven Per Cent.

New York, Aug. 19.-The decline in
prices which has been in progress for
some time past continued during the
past week, with many securities reach
ing their lowest quotations in years.
Successive waves of liquidation dur
ing the last few months has swept
away the profits Of years and have
made the stock market extremely SEN
sitiye and vulnerable to America. The
contributing causes to the situation
have been and are the fears of further
restrictive campaign against corpora
tions by the next congress and the
legislatures of various states, higher
rates for money, with reduced supply
of available, funds, apparent indiffer'
ence to the decline in stock prices on
the part of interests with large cap
ital investments at stake, visible signs
of weak spots in the trade situation
and monetary conditions that pre-
clude~ any hope of immediate aid from
Europe for American business enter
prises of stock market operations.
The shrinkage in stock has been
sufficient to allow income yields to
keep pace with prevailing interest
rates. Many substantial properties
sold during the past week for $1b,'
100000 to s25,OOO.OOO less in market
value than on the first of August, and
prime railroad stocks at present divi-
dend rates have begun to return In
vestors from six to seven per cent
whereas they offered yield OF but
four to five per cent not SO many
months ago.
