ice, muttering constantly to himself.
I went part way down the ladder, with
a candle in my hand, whence l could
see him toiling away at the end Of the
hole the men had excavated in the
Ice, though he paid no attention to my
call. The water was fully six inches
deep over the lazarette deck, splash
ing back and forth as the vessel
rolled, and | could see drops of sea
water squeezing ~ through the sides
Of her and dripping steadily down.
There was nothing to do but leave the
fellow alone, so after telllnS<Dade to

SO we left him down there alone,
pegging away in the dark. He came |
up, however, at the call for dinner, |

a word and going back to his solitary
labor, paying not the slightest heed |
to any Of us. When night came com

OF Representatives, in speaking OF the
situation in Mexico earnestly advised yes

unjustlfiablc and unwarranted by condi-

lie also called attention 10 the posi-

by the United States IN the Panama IONA.
Some of the South American republics
arc a bit unstable" said Mr.. Sulzer. but
IL is different with Mexico. From private
but authentic sources I have learned that
the revolt there has simmered down TO a
few sporadic bands Of maurauders.
Americans have invested $1,000, 900 in
Mexico. but I will not be a party to any
proposition tending to use armed force 10

As to Nicaraguan possibilities the Rep

.CH|NA'S NEW RAILWAYS
Great Extension. Of Lines and
Privileges for Foreigners.
CLEVER POLITICAL MOVE
Roads Will Be Built by Foreign
Capital and Profits VIII
Pay Off the Loans.

Picking. Sept. 1.-THE project for 4
great scheme Of Chinese railways, when
holds the foremost place in Dr. sun fat
Sens programme for the modernizatioh OF
China. has commanded the support OF the
Picking government, and II may involve
n great extension OF the privileges or Tor
elgners In the country, with possibilities
of an immense increase in China's foreign
trade.
The government has authorized DR.. sun
Vat Sen, who was formerly provisional
President Of the republic, 10 establish
railway corporation 10 carry out sys-
tenn of national railways covering terri
tory 10000 miles In extent
Mixed Chinese and foreign companies
will be granted concessions throughout
China for periods of about forty years,
after Which time the lines are to revert
10 China.
Similar concessions are 10 be given TO
foreigners for the intermediate districts,
but the railroads In the frontier provinces
will be under exclusively Chinese control,
and will be financed through foreign loans
apart from the other railways.
Dr. Sun Vat Sens proposals are TO open
the whole of China proper TO foreign resi-
dence enterprise. but TO make foreigners
amenable 10 Chinese laws, for which spe-
cial courts are TO be established.
President Yuan Shih-kai proposes 20
give Or. Sun Vat Sen 3oO00 taels (So0,O 900
monthly 10 promote his scheme of rail-
ways throughout China, and the Provi-
sional Assembly is expected 10 agree 10
this. Dr. Sun proposes TO borrow abroad,
giving the railways as security until the
profits will pay the loans, whereupon the
lines will become government property.
This IL considered a clever political
move, for while many sections OF the
country distrust Yuan Shih-Kai recogniz-
ing only his capabllity. Sun Vat Sen is a
popular hero who Is most likely to per-
suade the nation TO accept foreign railway
loans, which were actually the cause OF
the late revolution.
President Yuan has invited each provin-
cial governor TO send three representa-
tives 10 "A conference TO be held at Picking,
hoping 10 persuade them OF the necessity
OF a strong central government, the in
ter-provincial ties now being insecure.
The President powers Of persuasion arc
remarkable. Men come TO Peking his en-
cmies and depart loyalists.
The situation is indicated by the res'g-
nation OF a member of the Assembly, who
said that the reason for his withdrawal
was that the government no longer rec
ognized the Assembly. The Presidential
orders frequently resemble the imperial
edicts Of former days. one recently cre-
ated another Mongolian duke.
Yuan's Cabinet remains obscure. I'M
portant affairs are conducted from the
Presidents Office. The acting Premier is
Chao Ping -Chun, president OF tho Board
Of the Interior. an old adherent who
emerged from retirement with Yuan Shih-
Kai.

BLOW FOR HOME RULE
Midlothian Defeat for Liberals
Is So Regarded.
tBy Gable TO The Tribune.

London, Sept. 1.-THE Midlothian
election is regarded as more significant
even than the Northwest Manchester
election. and as sounding the doom OF
the government and the death knell TO
Home Rule. The Liberals, in their
hour of disappointment, are endeavor-
ing to show that straight fight be-
tween Major Hope and Alexander
Shaw would have resulted in Liberia!
majority Of 2,3Sl.
Unionists and Laborites alike reject
this argument. The Labor party is re-
solved to stand on its own legs and 10
have no alliance with the Liberalists.
Unionists are everywhere jubilant to-
night. Belfast received the news with
acclamations of the profoundest JOY.
Wild scenes were witnessed in the
mills, shipyards and factories, employ
ers and operatives joining in resound L.
ing cheers, which were repeated over
and over again.
The late returns tonight show that
Major j. A. Hope, Unionist won by
a majority of only 90, his vote being
6,021. The Labor candidate. Provost
Brown. secured 2,413 votes. The size
of the Labor vote was a surprise all
around. and upset the hope Of the gov
eminent all around. Alex Shaw. Lib
eral, got $3.50 votes.
The Unionist press is JuDilant over
the capture of Gladstone's old seat for
Midlothian as knockdown blow to
the government. The Liberal morning
papers demand that Premier Asquith
insert in the next electoral reform bill
clause which either by provision for
an alternative vote or for a second bal
lot will prevent a constituency from
becoming represented by a minority
vote.
In view of the representative char
acter Of the Midlothian district II is
impossible TO cXaggerate the impor-
tance OF the capture of the scat, which
has been recognized ever since Glad
stones victorious campaign of 1850 as
the stronghold of Liberalism in Scot
land. \ Unionist party official has
stated that a general election now
would result in the capture of hun
drcd Liberal seats. converting the
coalition majority of los into Union
list majority of %, and the longer the
appeal 10 the country is delayed the
greater will be the fall Of the govern
mcnt.
Unquestionably Lloyd George was
largely responsible for the result Of
the election. The insurance act, which
was the first experiment in this coun-
try of a general system of direct tax
alton. was very unpopular and the
election was fought mainly on the
question of its merits. and dement's.
Liberal papers are clamoring for the
speedy passage of a measure introduc-
ing the second ballot, while Unlonist
papers are just as loudly calling on
Asquith 10 resign.

Washington, sept. IA formal appeal

of the railroad officials. About forty rail-
road bridges in Eastern Sonora have been
wrecked and hundreds Of feet Of track de-
stroyed. according TO the complaint No

forth In the appeal, IL is understood, al
though the contents Of the note are with
held.
officials OF the state Department say
no particular significance attaches 10 this
latest request for protection of American
interests i'm the disturbed republic, az It is
simply one Of more than a hundred SINH
lar appeals. II is also declared that the
representations made by the railroad COM
pany will not necessarily cause any
change in the present policy Of handling
the situation, because the conditions re-
cited have been known 10 the department,
and every possible effort has been and is
being made 10 afford the fullest protection
