Chinese Trouble.

Sinister. reports come from China of
american missionaries in peril in the
province Of Sze-Chuen. where the natives
are in revolt against the government be-
cause of some railway concessions granted
and suspended. Nothing is clearly known
that d strong anti-foreigner sentiment has
developed, somewhat similar TO that
which prevailed eleven years ago at the
time OF the Boxer uprising. The British
Government has taken some steps To safe
guard the lives of the missionaries, but
the distances are so great and the com
mInications 50 difficult that shocking
tragedy may he, enacted before help can
reach the menaced stations. The United
States VIII do. of course. what il can,

The Police and the Black Hand.

Stirred by numerous complaints from
important citizens that the police of New
York have been derelict in their pursuit
of the black hand assassins and the
hlackmailers the New York authorities
have evidently determined to attack this
problem with more vigor than has been
manifested in the past. The situation in
New York for months past has been in
tolerable. Every few days bomb has
been exploded on the premises of man
who has been approached by the black
maiIers. Children have been kidnapped
