LARGE FIRE LINES
 SECURE LOWER RATE
Insurance Bulletin Says That the Discrimination Should
 Be Remedied

Montgomery, October 1S.-(SpeciaD.- Some large fire lines are getting pro- lection in Alabama at a lower rate of premium than smaller fire lines, accord ing to the state department of insurance, the September bulletin of which is just off the press. The bulletin admits iha' the charge is one that is hard to be proved but thinks that there ought to be some way of remedying the discrimination. Apropos this the bulletin says:
 Agents in some case have for years ci- vided commissions with owners or prop erty agents, thus discriminating in favor of the wealthy, or large holder, and Giv- ing the little fellows the hot end'' of the trade. In this way corporation or individual owning s50000 worth of insur- able property pays far less for the pro- tection in proportion than the man who has but $500 to S1000 worth. Already this condition, which prevails in many states, is causing a demand for a change. Con- missioner Preus of Minnesota, is tdvo- eating state rating bureaus, believing that in this way it will be possible to prevent such practices. Other commis- sioners are studying the question and va rious means are being brought forward. It is suggested that where the practice is thought to prevail the commissioner of the state have the fire agencies examined and if it is found that violations nave been indulged in enforce the anti-reoate law"

Montgomery, October 1S.-( (Special.) The United States circuit court of appeals on Wednesday heard prelmin- ary arguments in the case of the Amer lean Automatic Railway Switch com pany of Birmingham against the Shep- herd Automatic Switch company of Montgomery.
 This is the proceedings in which the Birmingham company is attempting to stop the Mon tgomery corporation from manufacturing and selling a certain de- vice on the ground that it infringes on the formers patent rights. The device is an automatic switch which Is thrown by pushing down a pedal floor of Q car. The pedal In turn releases Q lever which falls into slot in the mid ile of the track, throwing the switch and allowing the car to pass over the switch without stopping.
 The proceedings were brought orig inally before Federal Judge Thom G. Jones al Montgomery. Judge Jones held several weeks ago in favor of the Mont gomery company.

SECRETARY WILSON BRAVES WRATH OF PRO HIBITIONISTS
 AND SPEAKS TO BREWERS

Chicago, October 1S.--Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson on his arrival here today to address the International Brewers congress said of critics who have objected to his participating In the affair: They are honest, conscien- tious, well meaning people, probably with the best of motives, but the great American government cannot be run upon theories they hold.
 'I am simply going ahead and do- ing what I think is right"
 Secretary of Agriculture James Will son braved accumulated wrath of some thousands of prohibition workers throughout the country and tailed at the International Brewers congress here. In spite of hundreds of protests that had been sent to President Taft and to the secretary himself calling on him 10 refuse to appear at the congress, Mir Wilson welcomed tho members of the organization and made his speech.
 It was a short address. To the non expert auditor it consisted merely in assuring the international visitors the same courtesy the United States has received from European countries whence some of them came.
 "I called our American brewers to- gether a few months ago." said Secre- tary Wilson, ito learn from them what

element might enter into the naanu- facture of their products, so that it's purity might be considered, and told them that government officials were about to enter upon the consideration of their product and that we were disposed to deal fairly with all in- dustries recognized by law that enter state and international commerce.

 You come among lis to discuss our business interests and the same well come is extended to you that tho peo- pie of your country have rendered in- variably to Americans who sojourn in your lands for business, educational or scientific purposes"
 President Percy Andrew of the brew CTS, whose speech followed that of Sec ietary Wilson, was severe in his crit icism of most of the temperance re- formers.
 Tn this country the so called tenn perance movement has fallen into tho hands of the most .intemperate people n the nation" he said men suffering from what l can only describe as chronic moral inebriation, men utterly devoid of reasoning power. justly lack ing in the most elementary knowledge and education, and worst of all in only too many cases, prompted solely by the commercial benefits they derive from the cause they make a profession of championine."

Chang Piao's camp, near the Belgian concession, through an attack in the rear.
 After an eventful career of interna- tional relations under I4i Hung Chang covering Is years. Yuan Shi Kai on January 2, 1909. was dismissed, ordered to vacate all his offices and return home. He sent his family to the for eign quarter in Tien Bin and fled to the same place immediately after.
 The prince regent, deprecating the effect on the world of the event and appreciating Yuan Shi Kai's alarm, sent special message to Tien Bin to re- assure him. He returned to his family home at Wei Hui F'uin. Honan, and until now has lived there country gentleman's life.
 Yuan Shi kai was dismissed follow ing the death of his sovereign pro- tector, the late Empress Dowagef, be- cause he was an obstacle to the reap potntment of imperial patronage and power for the benefit of the numerous impecunious members of the prince re- gents family and that of the new Elm press Dowager
 It is not generally known that his paramount idea upon the death of the former Empress Dowager and Emperor was reform of court practices, aboll- ton of eunuch and female influences jn the palace, rescue Of the boy emperor and his educa ton on western lines.
 His dismissal was called the unad- vised whim of hysterical widow, kuangshus empress, and of an irresc- lute regent, Prince Chun The latter flung the edict of dismissal on the council table for approyement with out chance of debate The sweeping aside of the grand council showed Yuan his danger.
 A ma mi nf tla ,;e,fa nf Picking regarded his dismissal as inviting revolution and Sir John Jordan, British minister, together with W. w. Rockhill, the then American minister, on January 15. 1909, jointly made formal representa- tions to China, necessitating a declara- tion of policy by the regency.
 Yuan Shi I<ai was given asylum by the British and American authorities who feared for his life and who since Ina, time have not failed to let China know that they hoped for his recall. Because of this, China, on the occasion of his acceptance of the appointment to Wu Chang, sent a special messenger to Sec retary Knox to announce the event.
 Yuan Shi Kai's consent to return to the office comes after refusal of at least two government overtures. The most important effort to coax him back oc- cured in 1910 when the government ap- pointed Tang Shao Vi president of a board in Picking as councilitory meas ure and sent him to ask Yuan to join in arranging railway and currency loans and qualification of the opponents of the gov ernnent's policy of industrial develop ment by use of foreign loans.
 He agreed to come back if the regent would guarantee freedom from interfer- ence by the Imperial family, court and in triguing politicians. The regent could rot then give such guarantee and Yuan re- mained at home. Tang Shao Vi there upon resigned.

 Tokio Anxious
 Tolio, October 1S.-Desplte assurances given both by the Chinese government and the revolutionary leader in the cen tral Chinese provinces that rights of for eigners will be respected, officials here regard the situation as likely to develop alarming phases.
 Maintenance of scrupulous impartiality will be difficult at times and it Is cer- tain that any suspicion of interferance on the part of foreigners would arouse tremendous indignation among the Chi ncse.
 Some feeling against Japan has already been noted at Picking where Chinese ner- chants and financiers have freely assert ed that Japan melted the revolution in order to create crisis which would pre- vent the American European loan.
 In revolution circles on the other aand reports are circulating that Japan IS aid ing the imperial government and this im- presson has already created antagonism against Japan in the south and is said to have resulted in the beginning of an anti Japanese boycott
 Still another Chinese rumor. which Is likely to cause trouble for Americans, is to the effect that the United States en- couraged the revolution by it's insistence upon the hated railway loans.
 Every indication, official, or otherwise, points to the determination of Japan to remain absolutely neutral. It is declared in official circles that the Picking gov ernment made advances to Tokio with a view to securing assistance against the revolutionists. But Japan replied cxpli- city that she would not interfere as long as her interests were not attacked. The revolutionists have been notified however, that the iron works at Han Yang. which are under Japanese ownership are to be regarded as distinctly a Japanese interest.
 Dispatches from Manchurs seemed to indicate that the province has thus far shown no signs of uprisings.
