SERIOUS STATE OF

FOREIGN OUTBREAK IMMINENT

ported Capture Of Admiral.


today TO leave the Chinese interior
for the treaty ports. The outlook
for an anti-foreign outbreak is con-
sidsred very threatening.
It was regarded as practically GER
tain that if the present disorders IN
China were long continued they
would ultimately develop a phase
Of hostility to alien residents. The
leaders both Of the imperialists and
rebels realize the danger to the CHI
nese themselves Of an attack on for
eieners and have undoubtedly done
all In their power to prevent 1T. The
masses of the people. however, ara
bitterly antl-foreign and reports from
every direction make it plain that
they are rapidly getting out Of hand.
The rebels at Nankin outnumbered
the imperialists but the city's defend
ers are better disciplined and: strong
ly entrenched. Every indication
points to desperate engagement.
Confirmation is lacking Of the re-
port that Admiral Sab has been cap
tured by the rebels. but since his
aeet has fallen into rebel hands the
story OF his capture seems likely. The
xunboats manned by rebel crews are
maintaining their embargo on Chi
Eese shipping on the Yang Tse.
Reports cabled here from London
that the rebels plan to secure the
services OF Gen. Homer Lea, an Am
erican, to maintain o military gov
ernment for about three gears while
the administration reforms are be-
ing effected, have aroused the Keen
est interest among foreign residents
In China.
Shanghai. Nov. 1s.-The battle Is
on between the rebels and imperiai-
lists at Nankin according to up-river
reports. Communication with the
scene of the engagement Is interrupt
ed. The meager advices received here
say only that after series OF sharp
skirmishes the rebels attacked the I'M
perialist position furiously and that
the fght is still raging.
An attack Of the rebel forces on
the imperial troops at Hankow yes
terday was repnfssd with heavy loss
to the rebels, according to statement

PUTS IT UP TO JAPs.
Presidents New Treaty Does Not Bar
Immigrants.

Washington. Feb 22.-The text Of
new treaty with japan. designed to re-
place that of 1894 and drawn with the
special design of eliminating the re-
strictions upon immi grafton contained
III TIA: treaty was laid before the
senate by President Taft.
The essential difference between the
proposed treaty and the existing con-
vention is said to be in the fact that
1t oTnits all reference to such restric-
tons ard leaves to the national honor
OF Japan the enforcement at her own
ports of the limitations upon emigra-
ton from japan now expressly placed
upon immigration into the United
States.
The document is said to provide that
either country may renounce the treaty
at the end OF six months If it fails to
operate as expected.
Because 1t embodies this radical de-
parture from the existing treaty and
touches the question OF the deepest
Importance and interest to the Pacific
slope, the injection OF this convention
into the closing hours Of the Sixty
first congress created a sensation.
That the new treaty will encounter
opposition seems. certain. Western SEN
ators are expected to insist upon OPP
portunity for debate, which Will develop
the full extent Of their opposition ia

SCARLET FEVER SCARE
Training School Of State Teachers COL
Iese Closed as Precautionary Meas

ports Of Epidemic Exaggerated.

Cedar Rapids Feb. 22.-The trainin &
school OF the State Teachers College
was closed at noon and will remain
closed for some days during the scarlet
fever scare in Cedar Falls. A very
careful Investigation shows that there
are sixteen cases Of the disease, four
being in the country. Thirteen Of those
afflicted are students In the training
school Of the teachers college. There
are three older students IN the college
who have the diseass. None Of the
cases are reported to be very serious.
Superintendent Bender. with the city
board Of health, deemed Il . wise but
unnecessary measure TO ciovs the train
Ing department up to and including the
eighth grade for few days. Many OF
the parents OF children thus afflicted
50 per cent of the $50 children enrolled
in the training department OF the col
lege were absent, and 1t was thus af-
fecting the school, very materially.
Erroneous reports have been current
regarding the spread Of thStdisease on
College Hill and 1t was stated1hat there
were 100 cases. bat an Investigation
shows that. including the three adult
students enrolled in the college proper.
the four cases in the country and the
nine training school pupils who are az
Nicted. there are Just sixteen cases.
The cases on the Hill and a few down
town make less than twenty cases of
the disease in Cedar Falls and all of
them are Of the very mildest form.

Negro 6oete Australian in Six Rounds,
On Q Foul.
London. Feb. 22.-Bnil Lang. who
once held the championship Of Aus
tralia, was no match for Sam Langford,
the American negro pugilist. in a
scheduled twenty-round bout at the
Olympia last night. Langford won in
the sixth round. when Lang was dis
qualified Lang was almost out when
he committed the foul.
After six fierce rounds. when Lang
ford was down. the Australian in a
dazed sort Of way rushed at the Amer
lean and struck him, and Immediately
the referee proclaimed Langford the
winner.
The Australian. with all his natural
advantages. including an extra nifty
two pounds in weight. was hopelessly
outclassed by the negro fighter, who
walked into him and hit him from all
angles when ana where he willed. Lang
was all nerves: he seemed scared to
death, and his disqualification was the
best thing that could have happened.
He was 50 groggy that he was bound to
have .peen put out x &c ::::S rot trans-
crossed.
The only redeeeming feature Of
LanRs showing, was his gameness in
taking punishment. AS early as the
first round, LAasford punched him all
over the ring. In the second the negro
forced the Australian into neutral
corner and dropped him for q count OF
nine with q terrific left and right to
the Jaw.
