YUAN IS iNAuouRATEp.

Foreign Legations Not Represented
lmpsslalists Gazing.
Pekin Ynans SIT Kd vas formally
inaugurated provisional president Of
the Republic Of China in the presence
Of : great gathering Of delegates, pro-
vincial ENJOYS, military and naval off,
GERS and other prominent personages,
in the new foreign Office. Many for
eigners attended the ceremony, but
the Legations we're not represented.
Yuan Shi Kai, who was in military
uniform, read declaration promising
faithfully to develop the republic,
observe the constitutional laws, and
retire when the national assembly ap-
pointed permanent president. The
affair was solemn almost pathetic
and typical Of China's transition.
Most of those attending were at
tired either in uniforms or European
dress. The only touch Of Orientalism
was the presentation Of the scarfs to
Yuan by two yellow-robed llamas.
A report has reached Pekin that
Tung Kwang, the famous pass on the
borders Of Shensi and Honan pro-
vinces, has been captured by General
Sheng Yuan. governor Of the province
of Shensi, before whom, if the report
is correct, the provinces Of Honan and
Chilli are now open country
The report says that 1000 republic
can cavalry and infantry have desert
ed to the imperialists under Sheng
Yuan and that q large part of the
republican army in the North is show
ing strong symptoms of reaction and
may be affected seriously.
If the report is true, it is probable
that the difference between the North
and the South will be brought no
nearer a settlement because Of the in
auguration of President Yuan Shi Kai.

MEXICAN CAPITAL FOR PEACE
Public Demonstration Of Loyalty t.
Administration Made.

Mexico City-A big demonstration
in favor of peace and in support Of the
constituted government was held here.
Perfect order prevailed.
President Madero for nearly three
hours reviewed the demonstrations
from the palace and from time to time
replied to impassioned speeches by the
paraders. The speeches, while not
laudatory of Madero, pledged him sup
port in abolishing anarchy and ex-
pressed confidence in the government.
The crowd, which filled the xoccolo in
front Of the palce, is estimated to
have numbered &c, 900 persons.

I New York-The anthracite opera
tors and the United Mineworkers of.
America profess unyielding adherence
to their attitudes concerning the
miners demands.
1.-THE situation looks blue, and the
indications point to a strike" de-
clared President White, of the miners.
The operators say they will make no
concessions.
With the formal rejection of the
miners demands and the counter prop
osition that the present agreement
which expires March 81, be continued
for three years, the operators COM
mittee of ten adjourned.
Adjournment was taken upon re-
quest of the miners officials, who
meantime will meet, consider the
operators reply, and plan their pro-
cedure. Their decision, it is expect
ed, will be announced at joint meet
ing.
cit is out of the question to advance
wages" reads the operators reply,
"unless we can in some manner real
ize from the sale of coal sum equal
to the increase in wages"
This, it is said, would aggregate
$28, 900, 900 a year, and the whole adj
vance, which would average about 81
cents q ton, would be borne by the
domestic users of coal.
