Earle in a published interview says
that he is acting on his convictions. He
admits that his wife is a French woman

QUESTION TO Be
SETTLED SOON
Much Feeling Stirred Up in
Poor Old China Over Success
Sor of DOWager Empress.

Peking, Sept. S.-The question of the
ManchU succession, native officials as
sert. has today become the paramount
topic of elaboration at the summer pal
ace. One of the ablest foreign
authorities says that more urgent
than a constitution for China, or
the amaigamation of the oppos-
ing Chinese and Manchus, is the ques-
ager empress. the greatest of all Man
chus, closely Identifies with the continu-
ance and security of the dynasty The
question has not been raised since the
time subsequent to the dowager's depos-
ing of Prince Chun'S son Pu Chun, In &C
cordance with the protocol of 1901 when 4
majority of the imperial clan reaffirmed
loyalty to Pu Chun. This action caused
a dangerous scandal and was regarded as
an sffrOnt to the powers threatening a
removal of complications. price was
placed on Chun's head, the clan was de-
nOunced and its activity suppressed.
Serious Difficulty.
The urgency OF the question Of the sue
cessiOn' and the difficulty of it's settle
ment is serious, owing to the natural in
firmities of the dowager empress. due to
old age, which are complicated by threats
of apoplexy and also by the condition Of
the emperor, who constantly is reported
to be ILL., He is said to be the victim of
decline, which adds to the possibility of
an accident to the throne, other than
that feared from anarchists and revolu-
tiOnists.
In view of her own precedent of arbi-
trarily making Kwang Hsu emperor, it is
believed that the lowager empress will
declare the heir apparent independently
of the wishes of the imperial clan.
