PRINCE CHING IS MADE
PRESIDENT PRIvY COUNCIL
More Concessions Made By
Throne In Hope Of Appeas-
Ing the RsVoIutlonIsts
(By Associated Press }

Pekin, Nov. l.--Ynan Shit Kai has
been appointed premier OF China and
will organize new cabinet as soon
as he assumes his post Prince Ching
is made president of the privy coun-
Gil This much of program hastily
constructed by the throne in hope OF
appeasing the revolutionists was
made effective by the imperial edict
today.
Reform Edicts FavorabIy Received.
The native press has received the
reform edicts favorably. The Chin
ese, remembering how frequently
promises contained in former edicts
were forgotten may not be satisfied
with these however The reformers
in Pekin are divided into two parties
the extremists, mainly southerners,
who insist OH the expulsion of the
Manchus, and the mOderates, who are
numerous throug hout the empire
The latter are Indifferent as to wheth
er the dynasty is Manchu or Chinese
but they want great administrative
changes and believe that drastic mea-
sures are necessary to give the re-
forms a fair start,
The vital question is whether the
two wings will be able to unite. The
inherent tendency of the Chinese Is
toward compromise, but unexpected
circumstances frequently carry the
day in China. At Canton the viceroy
and leading gentry are classed as
moderates. while the masses are ex
tremists
Masses Are Extremists.
The same condition prevails in the
Provinces of Hu Nan, Hu Peh Ho
Nan, Shan 81, Kiang4Si and SEE Gnu
an. Naturally Manchuria and Chi LII
remain loyalists. Shan Lung. Kiang
Su Anhwei, Chekiang, Fukien, Kwei-
chow and Yunman are apparently half
hearted. Elsewhere incipient rebel
lion is spreading.
An important question for the north
is whether General Chang, leader of
the Ian Chau soldiers, is acting in
dependently or in colusion with 9th
er rebels. If the edicts satisfy the
northern soldiers the control of north
China will not be seriously imperiled
hut concerted action on the part of
General Chang and the southerners
will probably result in the fight of
the court to JehOl.

OFTEN A RANK POISON
SIMILAR TO PRUSSIC ACID
Effects Deadly as Cholera and
No Remedy, Says Local
Veterinarian

fUnless owners of stock are very
careful about the feeding in cane and
kafir corn fields there will be thous-
ands of losses Poisoning by such
feed Is often mistaken for cholera
1t comes from entirely different caus-
es. but is as deadly as cholera. No
treatment will help such cases
These remarks were made by DR..
j. f. Kellogg, veterinarian, this morn
ing, in alluding to the loss of eight
head of cattle by p. Weiss, farmer
anu stock raiser near the city.
Slow growing feed crops of the cane
and corn varieties often develop a
deadly poison tantamount to prussic
acid. according to DR.. Kellogg. It
strikes down stock in apparent good
health and kills in a short while. 1t
strikes larges areas or the Intestinal
tract and there seems to be no anti
dote
Salt, however is very valuable
preventative. Dr. Kellogg says cat
tie or hogs turned in on cane or corn
should have salt in front of them
regularly. Liberal sailing prevents
the formation of the deadly gas.
Situation Is Serious.
III the view of DR.. Kellogg and
others there will be thousands of
head of cattle and hogs lost in Logan
county this fall unless active precau-
tions are taken. AS long as crab and
Bermuda grass lasted there was no
particular danger, but now the diet
Is apt to be almost altogether Of the
cane. The dry season has seriously
impaired all pastures.
The situation is regarded by live
stock men as very serious Farmers
are decidedly up against hard prob
lem in feeding stock on account of the
dry year and the danger from disease
may in many cases bankrupt them 1t
is said that one stock raiser rost eigh-
ty head Of cattle last year from this
cause, which was then known as a
mysterious disease 1t is believed
that the Kansas reports Of deaths
Of hogs by the wholesale is due to
bad feed rather than cholera. There
are deadly possibilities in can patch
considering the high price of feed and
the high prices of hogs and COWS
Absence Of salt and grass renders the
stock liable to attack any minute.
with death certain.
Mr.. Weiss lost eight head in less
than twentyfour hours. He went to
lIe pasture Saturday to get two cows
for the market and found one of them
dead, Between that time and Sunday
night seven others died, all OF poison
Ing OF the prussic acid type.
