PEKIN, Nov. 24.-There has been
lighting in the streets of Marking and
a portion of the foreign residents have
taken refuge on board a British gun
boat, others of the foreigners elected
t remain on shore.
This information was conveyed to
Pekin today in official kilograms to the
legations here. There Is also a Ger
mar gunboat OF the city.
The American residents asked for
4 gunboat for their protection, but in
view Of the assurances given here yes
terday by Yuan Shi XII, one of the
councillors, that the situation was quiet
and the incident Of the mutiny closed,
this request was not forwarded. This
Is contradicted by the foreign board
and the legations have requested the
board to supply them with further
ews The war board announced to-
day that it had 1000 troops at Nan
king pending the conclusion of the
maneuvers. The new government is
firmly established and does not enter
tain fears Of an i~nsurrection.
The troops, however, are being
closely watched, for it is said that they
may follow the example of the ar
sillery and the squadron of cavalry
that hung out the banner Of revolt last
Thursday.
The native press intimates that the
trouble in Marking can be traced to
he revolutionaries, but the charge is
without substantiation.

HONOLULU, Nov. 23-Yia San
Francisco, Nov. 24.-The Hawaii Shin
po, the leading Japanese daily news
paper published in Hawaii, has re-
ceived from its Toxic correspondent
what purports to be the text Of a
treaty concluded between Japan and
America regarding coolie immigration.
It is stated that the signing Of the
treaty Is not to be announced until
next February.
The text of the treaty is given as
follows: 7
'tThe government Of the United
States and the government of his i'm
perial majesty, the Emperor of Japan,
in order to augment the existing
friendly relations between the two
governments and in the hope that
possible misunderstanding may be
avoided, enter into this agreement.
"The high contracting parties agree
in their desire for the independence of
the Chinese empire and believe in the
preservation of the territorial integ-
rity Of that empire and believe that
equal opportunities for commerce
should be enjoyed, and that equality
Of treatment should be accorded all
nations and agree with each other to
protect the people of the China indie
pendence and by peaceful means to
guarantee the existing situation in the
Chinese empire. X
The contracting parties agree that
neither government shall allow the
emigration Of laborers among their
populations to the country of the
other until further understanding in
the matter is reached, believing and
agreeing that the employment in one
country of the laborers of the other
countries tends to impair the exist
ing friendly relations between the two
governments. ~.
"This agreement between the high
contracting parties is entered into
and signed at Washington on behalf
Of the respective governments repre-
sented by Kogo Takahira and Elihu
Root" "M& ''.." ."0. A. H. n. M.A&.# +

sion Of the tariff and that there is
no present need of fretting about the
tariff, speaker of the house in the 61st

his home in Illinois late today for the
approaching session of congress. To
the newspaper men who greeted him
he added that he believed the people
would get the sort Of tariff revision
they had voted for. &
Later he issued a statement in
which he said he was not attempting
to dictate to the house. Citing an
example Of hasty action leading to a
misinterpretation Of public sentiment
in regard to the tariff, he expressed an
opinion that there would be no mis-
take made next summer in the revi-
sion of the tariff. aa4M" .."@

many of the leading members and
merchants of Germany, which is at

today gave a remarkable demonstra.

the indication of his desire to carry

the fatherland.
The chairman of the commercial
committee, Privy Councillor Wirth, in
addressing the delegates said the re-
cent misunderstanding between the
emperor and the people had been dis.
PEELED by his majesty's self-repression
and his spontaneous acts had proved
that he vas animated by the highest
ideals for the good of his people.
The meeting came to an end with
repeated cheers for the emperor.
