Mutterings of Discomfort

All through the summer months
there have been mutterings of discon-
tent in some of the Chinese provinces
due to the rice famine, dynastic differ
ences and dissatisfaction over acts of
the Peking government as to foreign
investments in China.
Good harvests mitigated to some ex-
tent the gravity of the situation. but
there is still general feeling of un-
rest, according to personal letters re-
ceived here from men on duty in that
quarter.
The army and navy are prepared for
any emergency, but their readiness is
solely a precautionary measure, it is
said, and should not be taken as an
indication of immediate danger.

DIR. WILSON'S LETTER
is DECLARED WEAK.
[From a STAFF Correspondent. ]

TRENTON, Dec. 23.-Governor-olect
Wilson's statement respecting the. SEN
atorship was circulated here private
ly this morning and caused a great
deal of unfavorable comment. The gen.
eral impression here among those who
read the statement before its release
to the newspapers was that 1t was a
very weak defense of DIR. Wilson's pres
ent position and a calm analysis of it
would lose the governor-elect the sup
port of many of his strongest adher-
ents. This latest statement from the
standpoint of those who read it this
morning is not only considered weak,
but at the same time a tactical blum
der on DR.. Wilson's part in the pres
ent contest. DR.. Wilson is trying to
scare the members of the State Legis-
lature Who are opposed to the candi-
dacy of James E. MARITIME.
The section of the statement that
caused the most u~nfavorable comment
here was the governor-elect's unmerit-
ed attack on David Baird. of Camden,
and former United States Attorney
General John w. Griggs. Simply be-
cause Mr.. Baird does not believe that
the people should be ~sandbagged into
having a man represent them in the
United States Senate whom they never
took seriously for that position, and
has been man enough to tell the read
ers of his newspaper what he honestly
believes about DR.. Wilson's activity in
the matter, he is placed in the category
of those controlled by special interests.
John w. Griggs is also placed in the
bad-boy class because he has had the
temerity to oppose the joke primary
verdict that DR.. Wilson Is standing for
in this contest. Mr.. Griggs has a good
many friends here, not only among the
members of his own party, but among
influential Democrats. The latter have
been supporters of DR.. Wilson, but his
unmerited attack on Mr.. Griggs has
lost him their support.
But the worst blunder of all that the
Governor-elect has made In his latest
statement, from opinions expressed
here, Is the way he has tied himself
up with the political fortunes of James
E. MARITIME. Up to this time many per-
sons here thought hat DIR. Wilson was
fighting for a principle. Now they
have begun to suspect that he is fight
ing for an individual. Once this opinion
becomes general, DR.. Wilson will find
out that the voters lave very strong
opinions on the duties of the executive
and legislative branches of the State
government and the lines separating
each.

Attorney Declares Authority on
Paintings Is Awaiting
Trial in Paris.

TOURS, France, Dec. 23.-The de-
Tense played another card at the open
ing of today's session of the trial Of
Count and Countess" d'Aulby de
G~atigny, charged with swindling, by
revealing the fact that NJ. Bellcuse. the
art expert called by the prosecution to
pass upon the authenticity of the de-
PENDANTS pictures. is now avniting
trial on a charge of conducting a gam
bling house in Paris.
The appointment of this expert vas
suggested by the complainant. the
Duchess de Choiseul Praslin. formerly
Mrs. Charles H. Paine. of Boston.
Belleuse characterized d'Aulby's paint
ings as mostly worthless copies, and
their owner as an audacious trafflcker
playing upon the credulity of art COL
lectors.
NJ. Bernard asked for the immediate
designation of another expert. The In
cldent caused a tumult in the court
room. Bernard followed up this dis
closure by calling NJ. Desmoulin. q
painter. who testified that of such OF
d'Aulby's pictures as he had seen. one
certainly was an original MASTERPIECES
and the Others were excellent copies.

man aviator, rather than a professional
flyer. He has broken no worlds rec
ords, but has made some notable
flights. He was born in Chile about
thirty years ago, the son of the late
John Grace, of the banking house OF
w. r. Grace & Co, New York. Former
Mayor Grace, of the American Me-
tropolis, was his uncle. He was grad

when his parents came to this country
to live he studied at Oxford. Since
the death of his father he has made
his home with his mother here. He has

member of the Royal Aero Club.
Like most a%viators, he has had a
few tumbles, but none proved serious.
He first attracted wide attention when
his aeroplane suddenly appeared out
of the haze and manoeuvred over the
British warships anchored off Sheer
ness.
Grace holds a place in public interest
much like that enjoyed by the late
Captain Charles Stewart Rolls, who
fell to his death from a height of 100
feet while giving an exhibition at
Bournemouth England, on July II.
Rolls was the first E~nglishman to fly
the Strait of Dover, a feat that made
him a popular idol.

OLD-FASHIONED GAS
COCK MAY PROVE FATAL

An ld-fashioned gascock that turned
all the way around will probably be
responsible for the death of S0-year-
old Ezra Rush, az milkman, who is be-
lieved to be dying of gas poisoning at
the City Hospital.
Rush, who lodged in the house at 15C
Summer street, returned home from a
hard days work late last evening and
went at once to bed.
In his hurry to get to rest it is be-
lieved that he turned the gascock conf
pletely around instead of halfway, SC
that the fluid flowed into the roc
all night.
When the landlady broke into his
room this morning Rush lay uncon-
scious, nearly gone.
DIR. Foster gave first aid n then he
was hurried to the City Hospital.

that he is not the proper calibre of man
to go to the United States Senate. DR..
Wilson'S invariable reply is that lie is
not advocating MARITIME. but a principle.
Several of those who have talked with
him on that point have bluntly told
him hat there is no principle involved.
He has been informed time and again
that four-fifths of the Democratic
party who refused to give an express
sion for either James E. MARITIME or
Frank M. McDermit at the September
primaries are just as much entitled TO
consideration as the one-ffth who did
express themselves. apart altogether
from the fact that the preference de.
clared by the one-fifth was a purely
negative one.
Danger to Party.
Governor-elect Wilson has been told,
1t is declared, that his course is not
only a danger to the party, but a bad
precedent, and one which may be re-
sorted to at some future time to the
detriment of representative institu-
tons.
