olutionaries have placed police patrols
throughout the city. General Chang, the
imperial commander escaped across the
river TO Pu-Kow the night before the
revolutionary forces entered the city, 1t
is believed, with the consent and con-
nivance of the rebel commanders. From
Pu.Kow General Chang accompanied by
one thousand picked troops from the
garrison of that town, proceeded north

Trains have begun to run into Nanklng.
Reports from the Sze-Chuen province
are not reassuring. a large number ot
foreigners are held because the authori-
ties find that having foreigners within
the various towns guarantees the towns
against attack. 1t Is suggested that the
foreign governments request the Pre-
mier to ask General III, the revolution
ary commander to furnish isolated for
eigners with an escort to a place of
safety.

bic fact is that the increase for 1910 and

increase for the period OF ten years be-

M. PERU SAYS FAREWELL
Last Surviving Pupil of Chopin Gives
Valedictory Concert.

Paris. Nov. 4-Chopin's last surviving
pupil. VI. Peru, gave his farewell concert
at the Sale Pleyel recently, in the house
where Chopins pianos. the placard of his
first recital, and other relics are carefully
preserved.
Although over eighty years ot age, NJ.
Peru plays with all the wonderful delicacy
which tradition associates with the art Of
the great Polish pianist, Of whom he has
the liveliest rccolectiors. AS "A master"
he says, Chopin was both admirable and
detestable. just as his pupils knew how to
arouse his interest and to understand him
he was bizarre, changeable. often contra
dieting himself; sentimental and paryersely
sad. lie was only gay by iits and starts. a
note OF anger often mlngling with his .mer-

HESITATE TO RATIFY PACT
Frenchmen Doubt Binding Force
of Treaty with Germany.
tBy Cable TO The Tribune J

Paris. Dec 2-The French parliament
, is reluctantly preparing to approve next
week the Franco German treaty. the
results obtained in Morocco are not felt
to he in Just proportion to the territorial
cessions on the Congo. but the trend OF
feeling in the Chamber Of Deputies is
that there is no other course left but to
indorse the treaty, in the hope of putting
an end TO the tension between France
and Germany.
Meanwhile the public feeling in France
Is that neither Sir Edward Grey's speech
nor the Franco German treaty removes
all danger of the war that continues to
threaten Europe. People here cannot
understand why the Franco-G German
agreement regarding Morocco. which
was concluded in February. 1909. and
which recognized special French rights
and interests in Morocco. did not pre-
vent the Agadir crisis last spring.
In consequence -Frenchmen are losing
confidence in the value OF any treaty
whatsoever that can be made with Ger
many.
Indications are that there will be many
abstentions in the Chamber next week
in the vote on the ratification Of the
treaty. especially as the unpopularity of
the present Cabinet seems to be increas-
ing.
Efforts directed from Berlin continue
TO be made to influence French public
opinion against the Anglo-French en-
te1te cordiale. Statements have ap-
peared accusing Mr. Chamberlain of at
tempting to exclude France from Mo-
/ rocco and dividing Morocco between
Spain and Germany.
These charges against Mr.. Chamber
lain. whose illness is now reported TO
have taken a serious turn, have been re-
/ futed by Senator 'Estournelles de Con-
| stant. who has just made an important
statement in the Senate and in letter
TO NJ. de Selves, the Minister Of Foreign
Affairs. showing that Mr.. Chamberlain
was the first man in England who pro-
nounced the words entente cordiale" in
connection with France and took the
initiative I'm bringing it about.

The latest interpretation of the election is that Arizona will not have another state election before 1914, every officer chosen at the election of last Tuesday, is elect ed for three years instead of one, as has been generally supposed. The report comes from Phoenix.
 The Democrat says: 1.-The joke of it all is that Governor Sloan is responsible. He set the primaries and general election so near the end of 1911, that Arizona cannot become state till 1912. And the constitution expressly provides that the sec ond state election-thef first after Arizona's formal entrance into the shall be held in the first even-numbered year after the presidents proclamation is issued"
