WI TING FANG IN NEW ROLE.
Foreign Affairs Minister I'm Rebel
Cabinet at Shanghai.

shanghai, Nov. 6.-The most inter-
esting development in Shanghai today
was the completion of the organiza-
ton Of local cabinet by the reyolu-
uonaries. WI Ting Fang. who for
merly held the post of minister At
Washington, has been appointed head
OF the ministry Of foreign affairs:
Wang Yih Tirg, trade and commerce;
Shen Wan Yung, finances: Ii Ping
Hsu. civil administration; Lee Hsi,
military administrator.
The appointments, however, are
not taken seriously, the appointees
denying knowledge Of the action Of
the revolutionaries, except in the case
Of the civil administrator, who has
been acting in that capacity through
out.
WI Ting Fang, while declining to
acknowledge any position in the rebel
administration Of Shanghai, openly
sympathizes with it. although criti-
cising some Of the methods. He is
bitterly opposed to the Manchu clique
in Peking.
DR.. WI says that II the revolution
hopes to win, it must scrupulously re-
gard the rights Of foreign nations and
investments. This, as time progress
es. will be found different because Of
the conflicting views held in different
provinces.
The Government at Peking has in
structed the viceroy Of Nanking not
to oppose the reformers. Nanking,
therefore, is expected to turn over to
the revolutionaries in a few days.
Perect order prevails at Shanghai.

Peking Fallen, Washington Hears.
Washington, Nov. S.--Reports that
Peking. the Chinese Capital, had been
captured by the rebels and that the
dynasty and other high officials had
fed, gave great concern to State de-
partment officials today. The depart
partment has not heard from Mr.. Will
iiams. the charge Of the American le-
CATION at Peking, since Saturday
night and this is believed to in
dicate that wire communication
between Peking and Tien Tsin
and Shanghai, the cable ter
minal, has been interrupted through
the activity Of the revoluti onists.
1t is feared that a state Of anarchy,
such as existed in Annoy, will follow
in Peking. The condition is being
watched closely, in case it should be-
come necessary to call an information
al conference, like that which ad-
justed the claims growing out of the
Boxer uprising, with a view to agree
Ing on common line Of action in
China to insure the protection of for
eign lives and property. and incident
ally to prevent any individual ma
ton from taking any undue advantage
Of the situation.
The American Red Cross Society
today cabled $1,000 to American Con.
sui General Green. in Hankow. This
action was taken upon the receipt Of
an appeal from American Charge Will
liams, at Peking. which told Of the
urgent need Of funds to relieve the
suffering.

HITCHCOCK PLANS
A LARGE SAVING
To Readjust Methods Of Computing Pay
to Railroads Carrying the
Mail.

WASHINGTON. Aug. l5.-zRadical re-
adjustment Of the methods Of computing
the pay Of railways for Transporting the
malls, which will effect an annual saw
Ing OF approximately s9.0oo.0oo. was rec
commended 10 congress today by Post
master General Hitchcock.
Mr.. Hitchcock proposes to effect such
saving by paying the railroads on the
basis OF cost with per cent profit
The plan provides that all railways
shall report annually TO the postmaster
general the expenses incurred in carry
Ing the malls. in order that the depart
ment may determine the cost TO the rail-
ways and fair rate OF profit.
The method OF fixing railway mail pay
in accordance with weight has proven ex-
pensive and unsatisfactory. says Mr.,
Hitchcock. He suggests the substitution
OF the method Of fixing compensation In
accordance with the amount Of space re-
Quired In cars.
Mr. Hitchcock sent to congress draft
Of a bill which could carry the new plan
into effect.

WHEAT CROP GOOD IN
WESTERN CANADA

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-The for.
cign crop report for July shows that in
western Canada spring wheat prospects
have maintained their promise. The
condition at the end of July for all
Canada was given at ninety bushels,
against seventy-seven bushels last year,
The total yield Of winter wheat is esti.
mated at l7,706,000 bushels, compared
with 16,610,000 in 1910.
The cereal harvest in Europe on Au
gust had reached the latitude Of the
British isles. In the west it was from
one to three weeks earlier and in the
east from two to three weeks late, The
total crop is not likely to equal that
Of last year.
In Argentina and Chile, where au-
tumn sown crops are now passing
through the mild winters of those coun-
tries, weather conditions have been re-
ported favorable and indications point
to a good yield Of wheat, oats and fax
seed.
In Indiana weather conditions have
been untoward, but lately some i'm

NO ARRESTS MADE
IN LYNCHING CASE
Police Are Blamed for Not Protecting
Prisoner After Ample Warning
Had Been Given

COATESVILLE, Pa, Aug 15.-De-
spite rumors of outbreaks and possible
attacks by negroes, peace reigns IN
Costesville and surrounding country,
following the burning on Sunday night
of the negro who killed Edgar Rice,
special policeman. State police are

Coatesville that during the night
band of negroes bent on vengeance
would march on the Rice home, and
burn the body of the dead policeman
The authorities placed special policemen
on guard at the Rice home. Within the
house were the widow, her five chill
dren and several relatives.
No arrests in connection with the
burning Of Walker have been made. 1t
is said that only about twenty-five
men took an active part in the work.
At least one Of the borough policemen
is said to be implicated in the lynch
ing.
Chief Of Police Umstead had been
warned, it is said, in ample time Of the
gathering of the mob to lynch Walker,
but he did not raise hand to pre-
vent it.

FAY0RS ABANDONMENT
OF TWO OLD FORTS

WASHINGTON. Aug 15.-While many
OF the units OF troops in the department
OF the Missouri, display n high state OF
efficiency, there are several others un-
prepared TO take the field under war
conditions. according to the annual re-
port of Colonel Charles \, Hatfield, COM
manding the department.
Colonel Hatfield declares that the evil
dent tack of thorough instruction which
leads up finally To preparedness for fold
service under war conditions is due In
great part to the relatively small number
OF officers on duty with the troops In
the department.
The report recommends the abandon
ment OF Fort Mackenzie. Wyo., and Fort
Meade s D., as being unnecessary.
