Rioiing in Chang Sha
Deliberately Planned.
China Embarrassed Regarding
Proposed Railway Loan.
U. S. Gunboat Is Expected and the
Situation Grows Serious.

Hankow, May 4.-ReportS were re-
ceived here today of an agitation by
natives in the province of Kiangsi. 1t
is stated that 2O0O Hunanese have
crossed the border from Human prov
ince and made their way into Hupeh
province, reaching Taych. The situa-
ton is declared to be serious.
Chang Sha. China May 4.-The re
cent rioting in this province has placed
the Chinese government in, an embar-
RAISING position regarding the pro-
posed HankoW-Canton railway loan.
Evidence accumulates that the dis
turhance was deliberately planned by
influential personages as a warning to
the Central authorities not to meddle
in the affairs of HUI Nan province and
to make plain the determined oppoSi-
ton Of the NANTES to foreign par
ticination in the railway construction
Millions of Chinese are lmbued with
the idea that the government is yield
ing weakly to foreign influence, which
is seeking political control in China.
Picking realizes the situation, and
while desiring to proceed with the
runway dSIcSiItIl, uhuNA'NN"HS sh'1"
hasty action by the government might
be followed with the most serious con
sequences. A protracted delay appears
inevitable. Meantime the Central au-
thorities are trying to placate the HUI
Nantes and have ordered the new
governor to deal lcniently with the
rice rioters and also with he revolu-
tionists WHO recently attempted the
bomb outrage against the regent. The
wouldhe assassins have not been put
10 death, but have been sentenced to
life Imprisonment.
The instigators of the. Rating EN-
ployed a large band of revolutionists,
who used the scarcity of rice as pre-
text to stir up a popular and hostile
demonstration. The destruction OF
property and the looting had been
carefully planned. For month before
the outbreak the revolutionaries lived
outside the south gate of the city,
where the rioting. commenced. Mem
bers of the organized party wore dis
tnctive badges and directed the move
ments of the mob.
Outwardly the situation in Chang
Sha and the adjacent country appears
to be improving. The United States
gunboat Villalobos is expected here
soon.

now remains but two solutions Of the
mystery which surrounds the blood
stains found on the bed and in the
houses of Dir. S. l.. Burns here Satur-
day morning, when friends beloved
him murdered.
Either the entire affair is a clever
hoax, the opinion Of the officers, or a
murder was committed in the house

the thing fake, but even at that
they are waiting for the analysis Of the

The box in which the blood was
sent to Dr. Edwin DeBarr, state chem

from the floor in places which afforded
little opportunity for the collection Of
dust and other foreign matter.

THREE WEEKS

Those people who refrained from
seeing the production Of Three
Weeks at the Jefferson theater last
night missed what was really rare
treat in the line Of dramatic per-
formance Answering the objections
of the vast majority Of people, there
was not a single line or moment in
the entire play that exception could
possibly be taken to.
As for the company it is far and
away the best dramatic company
that has played at the Jefferson thea
ter in long time, and there is hardly
any member Of the cast that an adj
verse criticism can be made against.
The only possible place that might
be criticized is in the lead playing
opposite Marcella Hamilton, who, in
the English character Of Paul Van
dawne, the lover Of the queen, seemed
at times somewhat cold ID his part.
I However. The work Of Marcella Ham
I ilton, the star Of the production, is 50
/ fine that any faults that might be
found in the balance Of the company
are easily offset, and the whole pro
duction can be classed no other was
than as superb.
