THE CHANGING CHINESE SITUATION

A caoiesram from Picking dated the Sd
instant announced the opening of the
imperial senate by the
Second regent Prince Chun. The
Co.. frs. stage OF popular
S"6S representation began q
year ago with the provincial assemblies
The second stage is this imperial senate
The third will be the elimination OF
Chinese ambition. the establishment OF a
general parliament. which Is promised for
1915.
The imperial senate now I'm session will
demonstrate the fitness or unftness Of
the Chinese for representative govern
ment. Prince Chun has manifested a
disposition to make haste slowly. and
for this reason he has refused to con-
slider the impatient demand of certain
delegates OF the provincial assembly for
the immediate convocation OF the national
parliament.
1t is worthy of mention that among the
proposed reforms is one suggested i'm Il
memorial to the throne by Mr.. WI Ting
fang former Chinese minister at WASH

and interdicted by imperial decree.
Mr. Thomas F. Willard has written in
the Forum an article entitled America
In China" in which he says:
With the rejection Of the Knox plan
which would have included the Chinchou-
Aigun railway. the diplomacy which is
actually trying to keep American inter
ests out Of China was concentrated on
it and developments came rapidly. The
issue raised in these negotiations contains
the possible genesis of great war. which
may involve the United States. The va
rious representations made in the course
OF putting the screws upon China and
the handouts on American diplomacy in
the orient are extremely Illuminating and
significant"

Apropos to the reference to the Euro
pean-trained young men. Gen. de Negrier
expresses the opinion that
InSurpent China must take into
NJ, count their revolutionary
SAo"a' tendencies. And he invites
attention to the fact that il was this
class of military students who in April
last provoked the trouble at Hankow.
Gen. de Negrier declares that. although
the crown prescribes the study of popular
representation. these studies will last a
long time and end in naught II they
should succeed, the Manchu dynasty will
be overturned and the power pass 10
the Chinese. Even If China should be-
come a modern military power. adds Gen
de Negrier-and there is nothing to prove
that she will-china cannot escape from
the grasp of Russia. the colossus which.
by a network of railways. has forged
bands of iron around the celestial empire.
Gen. de Negrier'S point OF view is mani
festly based upon the assumed stability
to the detriment of China. But there IS
another point of view which may he
based with other things, upon the in
stability Of that treaty. If the Russo
Japanese treaty does not precipitate
conflict with China. it will permit tha-
country to establish constitutional
government create an efficient modern
army. exploit the vast riches OF the coun-
try and prepare the reSurrected nation
for the great destiny that awaits it.

nine CARS DROP
IN SUGAR CREEK
PORTION OF BURLINGTON FAST
FREIGHT LEAVES TRACK At
TOP OF FILL.

The swerving Of the tracks on
Agency hill caused nine cars OF imple'
ments to slide from the grade to Sugar
Creek beneath the flll and a distance
of more than hundred feet, where
they are submerged In the bottom OF
the creek. Both tracks are blocked to
traffic and four passenger trains are
held up for the time being, awaiting
the clearing OF the tracks.
The accident occurred at 1880 a. m.
today as time freight No. n was com
Ing down the hill into Ottumwa In
charge OF Conductor G. A. Lodge and
Engineer @. Smith. The track force
had been working on the track at that
place and had raised 1t shortly before
the train came laundering down the
hill. Striking the green track, the
train went over 1t to the extent OF
about fifteen cars, when unable to
Withstand the heavy strain Of the Ia
den cars, the track gave way under
the weight and nine cars OF 1mple-
ments went down the bank to the
creek below. The balance of the train
was disarranged to some extent and
badly blocked both tracks, stopping all

dent and the wrecking Grey was put

the hope Of clearing the track as soon
as possible to permit the movement OF

Des Moines. June Estate Fish

is making splendid progress in his
work of Matching the Chinese ring
necked pheasant for the. pleasure OF
the hunters Of Iowa, to the present
time about $500 eggs having been
sent to various parties desiring to try
their luck at Matching. These eggs
have been distributed throughout
sixty.eight of the ninety-nine counties
and a few reports have been received
with regard to the success that Is
being met with.
In beginning new work the first
year or two is always more or less OF
an experiment and Mr.. Lincoln Is not
only letting the farmers try their
luck but as. well has number OF sue
cessful bird raisers interested IN the
cause and will know after this year
whether 1t will be better to leave the
Matching entirely to experienced per-
sons or that it is as we'll to let num-
Der OF the people over the state take
a hand in the work.
Those who have the experience and
made bird raising q success VINO are
now assisting Mr.. Lincoln are w. M.
Benton Of Cedar Falls, A. ]. Smith OF
Cedar Rapids and William H. Ware OF
Council Bluffs. These men have all
small farms and in connection with
their. other work devote a portion OF
their time for the state, using the
same caution and Judgment In raising
pheasants for the hunters Of Iowa as
they have devoted to their own work.
