Peking, China, Dec. 26.-Premier
Yuan Shi Kai has submitted to the
more prominent Manchus here the
proposal emanating from Shanghai
for the meeting Of special national
assembly to decide on the future form
of government which shall be adopted
for China. This step By the premier
practically means that he asks the
court to decide its own fate, because
the members of such national as
sembly would decide in favor of re-
public.
If the Manchus agree to adopt the
suggestion their decision to do so
will be promulgated as an edict,
which in all probability will be made
public in the course of today.
No Reply Received.
Shanghai, Dec. 26.-As no reply has
yes been received by Tang Shao vi to
his dispatch to Premier Yuan Shi Kai
pointing out that the acceptance of
the idea of republic is the only
means of securing peace, the revolu-
tionaries are demanding vigorously
the immediate election of president
of the republic and asking that the
government shall be proceeded with
without any further notice being TAX
en- of Peking.
The conference held yesterday be-
tween DR.. Sun Lat Sen. the proposed
president, and WI Ting Fang, the
chief of the revolutionary delegates
at the peace conference, resulted in
complete agreement between the
two leaders and the revolutionaries
are now showing a more united front
than ever. Nanking is regarded as
suitable place for the capital OF the
new republic.
Premier Yuan Shi .Kai's decision TO
submit the proposal for the meeting
of a special national assembly to de-
eide on the future form of govern
ment in China to the consideration OF
the Manchus on becoming known
here caused considerable satisfaction.
According to the revolutionary lead
ers now in Shanghai Premier yuan
Shi Kais consent is tantamount to
the admission that he himself favors
a republic.
It is understood that Tang Shao
vi. who is representing Premier
Yuan Shi Kai here, had already in
formed the revolutionary leaders at
the peace conference that Yuan Shi
Kai personally was in favor OF re-
public. Tang Shao VI now admits
that Yuan Shi Kai is in full agree
ment with the revolutionary plan and
is only seeking to secure assurances
regarding the future treatment OF the
imnerial Gle and the Manchu people
and also to avoid an outbreak in Pc
king when the final announcement IS
made.
When Tang Shao vi had fully real
lied the true situation in the soutn
he telgraphed to Premier Yuan Shi
Kai suggesting that an edict should
be issued, leaving the decision as to
the form Of government to the people
of China through national conven-
ton. The leaders of both parties here
say the convention will be purely
formal affair. There can, in their
opinion, be no question regarding the
result of such convention. which
they assert can be called together
within 80 days. The present situa-
tion, it is said by revolutionary lead
ers, was fully anticipated. Every de
tail of the plans is already complete
for the organization of a provisional
government and the eventual estaD-
lishment of a stable government.

Mexico City, Dec. 26.-The end OF
the week will see General Bernardo
Reyes. who surrendered last night to
the Mexican authorities, occupying a
cell in the penitentiary of the Federal
District in the portion set apart for
political prisoners. An order that he
be brought to the national capital was
transmitted today by the minister of
the interior to General Geronimo Tre-
vino at Monterey. The commander OF
the third military zone probably viii
assign an escort of rurales to Gen.
eral Reyes and also give him safe
conduct to Mexico City.
The surrender Of General Reyes at
Lanares, Neuvo Leon, yesterday, 1t Is
believed here, marks the end OF the
most perplexing problem yet brought
before the Madero government. Seem
ingly. all over the country recently,
have sprung small revolts and most
of them were in the name of the NOR
mer military leader of the country.
His following in Mexico was consid-
cred very strong for years and to THIS
was attributed much of the apprehen-
sion Of the government when he start
ed his revolution.
He formerly was governor of the
state of Neuvo Leon and later COM
mander in chief of the Mexican army
This last position he held for some
time under President Diaz, holding
the rank at the time of the latter 5
resignatio.
A few months prior to the outbreak
of the Madero revolution, there were
rumors of a threatened outbreak
against Diaz in favor Of Reyes. Diaz
then sent Reyes to Europe, ostenslply
to study military organizations there.
President Diaz recalled him when the
Madero revolution became serious
but before Reyes reached Mexico CITY,
Diaz had been forced to resign. Reyes
then aligned himself with Madero'
and agreed to accept the portfoilo oi
NOR in tbe latter's cabinet when II
should be formed. Later he decldeu
to run for the presidency himself, and
Madero released him from his accept
ance of the cabinet place. The cleo
tion. held on October Is. resulted u

Partishans of Reyes attempted te
have congress nullify the election ane

CHAPTER XIV.
Lorrain Scatters Tacks.

I.orrain was moody that evening, and
his patience refused to stand the strain
when Emil and Ivan took opposing sldes
on the question whether the legal eXecu-
ton of rebels by tyrants or the illegal
execution Of tyrants by rebels, had done
the more to advance the cause of free
dom. AS they warmed to their work and
the history of the human race was being
sifted in search of facts to support one
side or the other, Lorrain pushed back his
chair impatiently and strolled aimlessly
into the library just as Bennington and
Higgins turned into the hallway which
led to the Office.
stood looking out with his hands thrust
into his pockets and his brows drawn to-
gether. In his trips to New York Lor-
rain had not visited the socialists. In
stead he had hunted up some influential
acuuaintances whom he had met abroad,
and they had procured him the privileges
of several clubs. Lorrain proved himself
an exception to the typical foreigner of
title by cultivating the society of men
instead of women; and it must be con-
fessed that he had the faculty of making
men like him without appearing to put
forth any efforts in that direction. His
friends invariably introduced him as
Count 1orrain: he invariably protested
that he haO gwen up MS lltle ana pre-
ferred to dispense entirely with its use.
His protests were made with frank sin
certify.
He spent his money freely but wisely,
was able to discuss any subject and had
plenty of European gossip to offer in ex-
change for the home product. But his
supply Of money had been very limited
and already he was In debt to several Of
his new friends. The amounts were small
and for that very reason he wanted to
be in a position to pay on the faintest
hint He had expected no difficulty in Sc
curing an ample loan from Dick, but that
individual seemed to have pressing af-
fairs of his own, and Lorrain was vexed
at the awkwardness Of his situation.
He heard slight noise at the library
door. and turning saw a young man with
a cornet case in his hand. The two eyed
each other critically without speaking.
There was marked resemblance between
them. although the newcomer was young
er and smooth shaver. His face denoted
evident displeasure at the meeting. while
Eorrain's face indicated certain low
satisfaction.
Il thought that you had moved to New
York. said the man with the cornet' case.

Measure of Economy.

''My observations Mr.. Meyer said,
have strengthened my conviction that we
can do all the necessary work for the
navy in a less number Of yards, and that
by the change we will gain not only
greater economy, but greater efficiency.
My observations also are that all the
European navies have the proper number
of admirals Of suitable rank, whereas in
our own navy we have no officers OF
higher rank than rear admirals ! am
of the opinion that we should at least
have vice admirals, if for no other reason
than to give to the United States prop
err recognition when our fleets meet the
fleets OF other nations. Furthermore
l was impressed by the younger officers
of high rank in the British navy. l am
hoping that Congress will soon pass a
bill that will give us younger admirals
and captains"

Had il Happened In 1911.

AS the sculptor left the studio and
locked the door after him, says Puck,
the newly finished Venus de Milo gave
a critical glance at her reflection in
a mirror on the opposite wall. She
seemed greatly disturbed. At last she
spoke.
What frightful hips! And they are
too, too solid to reduce! Oh, that
wretch of a sculptor! What shall ]
do?"
Frantically, and in wild despair, she
massaged her hips until her weary
arms fell off. There was no improve
men. Once more there came a cold,
stony look, as of marble, upon her
lovely face. and she spake no more.
