Shanghai, May 15.-The Chinese
government is greatly alarmed over
the Chinese revolt, which is steadily
growing more serious.
The rebels have cut of communi.
cation to Mengtse. II is estimated
that the revolters number 10000
and that they are under instructors
trained in Japan. The fact that the
rebels selected Yunnan as the scene
of their first attack convinces Pekin
that they e'are familiar with condi-
tions as this province is poorly pro-
tected. The government rs not hope
full of saving Mengtse, which is nt
the head OF the French railway, from
being taken.

WILLAMETTE PRUNE

The Wright-Clarkson Merchantile
company of Duluth, Mimi, has fled
suit for damage against the Will
lamette Valley Prune association OF
Salem. The complaint alleges that
the Duluth company was damaged 10
the extent of s997.50 by the failure
OF the defendant to fulfill contract
entered into at the close OF the prune
harvest last year TO deliver three
carloads OF prunes.
The Salem company shipped one
carload. which was promptly paid
for, bnt refused TO ship the other
three. The Duluth jobbers were
compelled to go into the open mar
ket. The sum paid for the two ad-
d!tional carloads amounted 10
s997.50 more than the price at
which the Willamette Valley Prune
association agreed 10 furnish them
and the plaintiffs ask that this
amount be paid.

In this list the boxes whose doors
are locked. or which have been used
as store rooms since the ordinance
went into effect, have not been mem
toned. The one saloon complying
with the ordinance Is Neusbaum's
saloon on Commercial street.
In some OF the places, even where
the letter Oh the ordinance has been
carried out In regard 10 the ten feet
OF glass front, IT is impossible, on
account OF the dark background OF
the barroom, to see what is going
on within. An example of this is
clearly shown by an incident that
occurred during the inspection tour
yesterday. Upon coming out of one
of the saloons on Commercial streer,
which had strictly complied with the
glass front regulation of the ordl-
nance, the Chief OF Policies party
was confronted by woman peering
through the glass door, and strain
ing her eyes as If to find someone.
On seeing Chief Gibson, she told
him that she thought her husband
was inside. Gibson promptly held
the door open AMI the woman poipt-
ed out the man, who ives promptly
led out of the saloon by the head
OF Salem's police force.
After the tour the mayor, the
marshal, and each member of the
license committe strongly expressed
the opinion that the present condi-
tion of affairs must come to sudden
stop. 1t is their intention TO have
all obstrueting partitions removed
at once, and 10 COMPEL the saloon
men to live up 10 all the other re-
quirements of the ordinance.
A meeting of the mayor and the
lie nse committee will be held in
the very near future, and the Chief
of police will be given instructions
as to what course he shall take to
remedy the situation. Mayor Rod
gers held a consultation with City
Attorney Keyes this afternoon, and
that Official will probably be pres
ent at the next meeting of the IL
cense committee.
