RIVERS WINS IN HIS
 FIGHT WITH HARDWOOD
Los Angeles Boy Had Best of Oppo- nent in Every Round of
 the Bout.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 2S-Joe Riv- CTS of Los Angeles, the feather weight whose championship aspira- tions received a temporary setback recently at the hands of Johnny Kill bane. came back" in a decisive fashion at Vernon this afternoon, beating George Kirkwood of St. Louis in the eighth round of a scheduled twenty-round bout. Referee Charles Elton stopped the fight to save Kirk wood further injury, after Rivers had beaten him into semi ness. It was apparent that KirkwOod had no chance to win, and Rivers will be given credit for a knock out. Although Kirkwood displayed re- markable gameness. he was out classed, and the fight was little more than an exercise gallop for Rivers, who had a decided advantage every round.

CALIFORNIA WILL BE

That Is the Opinion of Joaquin Mil. Ter Expressed in Letter
 to Fremont Older.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 2S.-Fre- mont Older, editor of the Bulleton, who. after leading a fight of years to send Abraham Reuf to the peni- tentiary, and who is now attempting to secure his release. has received a letter from Joaquin Miller, in which the poet commends Older for his ef- forts and urges him to continue them.
 What's Christianity for, if it does not lead you to forgive your foe when you have him beaten and hu- miliated?" asks the poet. "Reuf may have done wrong, but now he is ready to atone. That is shown by his plan for prison reform, which was laid before the prison directors. and which I carefully read and studied. It is the most remarkable document along these lines ! have ever seen. It is practical and need full. In the prison he is helpless to carry out his plan. Out of prison he has pledged himself to devote his life to it. Why not give him a chance? If he does not make good, he can be returned Try him, and my word for it and my hand on it. California will yet have occasion to be proud of him and the work he will dO."

Manchus and Chinese Are Both Terror Stricken in Anticipation of Massacre Which is Daily Expect ed.
LOYALISTS HAVE
 WON A VICTORY
It is Reported They Have Retaken City of Hankow But Some of the Revolu- tionaries Do Not Credit the Rumor.

PEKIN, Oct 2S.-A report of an imperialist victory in the vicinity of Hankow. which has been received from the minister of war, General Yin Tchang. has revived the dropping spirits of the administration. Addi- tional comfort was found in the con clusion of a loan agreement which the Chinese officials say has been arranged with a Belgian syndicate having French and British connec- tions. The loan is for S1S,OOO, 900, the price being 96. with 6 per cent interest. The syndicate receives 4 per cent commission.
 Financial groups, representing the four nations interested in the railway loan-the United States, Great Brit ain, France and Germany-took under advisement the proposition of the Foo loan of sS,OOO.OOO. but the United States financiers decided that the present is an inopportune moment. This afternoon the diplomatic body held a meeting and considered a re- quest by the viceroy of the province of Chi Iii for permission to police
  trary to the international protocol of 1902 The ministers, however, decided to permit the viceroy to do so, owing to serious conditions prevailing there. The ministers decided also to author iZe consuls at Hankow to deal tenn porarily with all questions cropping up, but the seizure of foreign ships, carrying anything which may be called contraband of war. as threat ened by the rebel leader. General Ii Yang Heng, will not be permitted.
 Regarding the appeal of Shanghai business men through the cOnsuls that thirty-mile zone around Shang- hai be declared neutral, the ministers decline to assent, on the ground that it is a matter for decision by the powers.
 Panic prevails in Penkin. Both the Manchu and Chinese families are talk ing precautionary measures against immediate disturbances. The Chi nese are alarmed owing to a report that tfe Manchu garrison intends to begin a massacre if the army meets with reverses at the hands of the reb- els in the south. The Manchus are said also to fear a massacre on the part of the Chinese. Both continue to desert the capital. All trains are crowded. Foreign banks are receiv ing deposits in Jumps of silver and gold.
 fortnight ago. when the govern ment began to take drastic measures, the Chinese spirit seemed quelled Now. since the defeat of the impe- rialists on Octo' CT 20 and other evil dences of Manchu weakness, revOlu- tion is talked of openly. The report ed recapture of Hankow by the war minister may dampen the ardor of those who seem ready to go over to the revolutionists. Ore of the lega- tions has a report from Hankow that the rebels retired before the impe- rialists without serious resistance. This causes the belief that the vic tory may have been prearranged.
