Rrltlsher,s Plan.

Atlanta, Oct. 31.-Only one middle
man between the Southern cotton
farmer and the English spinner is the
proposition which is being presented
to cotton merchants and representa-
tives of farming interests throughout
the South by A. L. Hart Of Manches-
ter, England. who is in Atlanta
Mr.. Hart's plan, which he claims
would save millions Of dollars annual
ly to the cotton farmers, includes the
establishment in Manchester of agen-
cies for Southern cotton merchants,
thus enabling them to deal directly
with the spinners. Mr. Hart says
cotton is sold six times unnecessar-
lily before it reaches the mills, whece-
as, under his plan, the American cot
ton merchant would be the only mid
ddleman, and many millions of dol
lars would be saved for the entire
South.

CHINA is IN A TREMENDOUS up
ROAR FROM ONE END
TO THE OTHER.
Denunciation of Manehus Brings
/ Greater Danger to Imperialists, and
i Massacre is Feared-Fleeing to
Missions,

Pekin, Oct. 31.-Terror which has
gripped the entire imperial court was
further revealed today by long list
OF edicts, supplementing yesterdays
remarkable proclamation, and Offering
further concessions Of the most radi-
cal character.
Today's edicts state that even
though the dynasty survives. Manchu
rule is at an end Even the transfer
OF the cabinet offices to native Chi
nese is ordered. and the throne swears
that hereafter Manchus and Chinese
win all be regarded equally. and that
Mancau pensions, which are now paid
to practically every member OF the
race, win be discontinued.
The edict makes complete capt.
ulation to the demands Of the Ma
tional Assembly and even so so far as
to offer exuavagant praise to the
rebels Tor bringing about the great
reforms which are promised The
throne abjectly acknowledges its in
capacity, pleads ignorance of affairs,
asks that its lapses be pardoned and
requests the assistance and advice of
all citizens. Finally, it makes a hys-
terical effort to rally the Chinese and
Manchus alike to the royal standard
by hitting at grave foreign dangers,
which it thinks should be faced by a
united China
Emperor Condemns Relatives.
In his struggle for existence, the in
fant emperor whose name is signed to
the edicts, even condemns many OF
his own closest relatives. The pres
ent officialdom, he declares, has not
sought the interests of the people, but
only its own pockets.
The reyolutionists declare that the
dynasty's partial surrender has come
too late. Moreover, they do not trust
the throne, regarding their present
position as too strong for yielding
to promises, which they feel are in
sincere.
Foreign Missions 5esieged.
Throughout the day the foreign le-
cations, the missions and even private
houses occupied by foreigners were
besieged by both Manchus and Chi
nese. who sought protection from each
other
Prince Ching, the premier, is using
his influence to restrain that element
of the Manchus who may be disposed
toward violence. For their part thf

fullest precautions are being taken.
Unarmed pickets form line about the

are several missions, and which is al

SENATOR NEWLANDS
GIVES OUT HIS PLANS

ization Of national holding com
panies, in which all the states can
participate.
In contrast with the work of the
interstate commerce commission,
Senator Newlands finds that the en-
forcement of the antitrust act has
been lame and hating, changing
with the shifting incumbents of the
attorney generals office and accord
ing to the requirements of political
exigencies. In consequence there
exist over 500 trusts of enormous
capitalization, practically without
regulation or control. The remedy
suggested is the organization of an
interstate TRADE commission with
powers similar to those of the inter
state commerce commission. Legis-
lation should be had to restrict the
activities of the trusts, providing for
license system and requiring uni
form prices to all purchasers.
Interstate exchange or banking,
says Senator Newlands, is as much
part of interstate commerce as
interstate transportation is. The
big New York banks, he thinks
have forgotten their true function
that of exchange, and have been
turned over to the aid of promo
ton and speculation, The interests
of depostors have not been ade.
quately safeguarded The senator
says:
"The repeated bank panics will
their attendant breaks in the eX
change of commodities between sec
/, tions, communities and individuals
