TROOPS WILL NOT
NEED CAMP
AMERICAN ATTACHES IN PEkiNG
SAY AMERICAN SOLDIERS
WILL BE FIXED OUT.

Peking, Jan. 10.-Captain j. II.
Reeves, military attache of the Amer
lean legation at Peking, and Captain
Thomas Holcomb, Jf, a special at
tache, have returned here after in
specting the section of the imperial
Chinese railway between Tang Shan
and Lanchow, which American troops
will guard. They say it will not be
necessary for the Americans to go into
camp.
British troops, which are guarding
the American section IN addition to
their own, are occupying the railway
buildings. The guards furnished by
the different nations comparatively are
few In number.
The effect, therefore, is little more
than moral.
The British commander at Tien Tsin
Informed Captain Reeves that the for
eign force is not intended for use
against serious attack. The several
nations, In event of attack, could stand
sufficient rcinforcements from Tien
Tsin to resist a large body of troops.
At Tien Tsin there are 1900 British
troops, 700 Italian, 900 French, $50
German, 500 Japanese and 200 Rus
sion.
Captain Reeves and Captain Hol-
comb report considerable excitement
along the coast, owing to rumors that
republican troops are now in the Gulf
of Pechli. Yuan Shi Kai evidently be-
lieves the report, because imperialist
artillery has been posted near Chin
Wang Tao and strong forces also have
been dispatched to other parts.
According to Captain Reeves, 1t was
imperial General Wang who tore up
the tracks and wrecked q train. thus
effectively blockading the advance OF
the LanchoW mutineers, who, Inc
feared, were approaching Peking. The
rebels, however, fled when attacked
Imperialist patrols followed, capturing
some of them, Six prisoners, includ.
Ing two captains, were beheaded.

for him and In fact did not think
Hines knew enough about politics to

The now famous message which
Hines Is said to have carried from
Washington to Governor Deneen to tho
effect that President Taft, Senator

i DOES HIS HEART GOOD
Declares He Sold to United States
Steel Corporation at Valuation of
$42o, 1000, 600, a Figure Accepted by J.
p. Morgan Hinself-Could Have Had
Hundred Million More.

Washington Jan 10-"It does my
heart good to think that / got ahead
of John d. Rockefeller my fellow
millionaire, in that Lake Superior orr
deal"
Andrew Carnegie. former ruler OF
the steel industry of the United States.
gloated thus in testifying today be-
fore the house committee of inquiry
into the United States Steel corpora
tion. Mr.. Carnegie had just told the
committee about his deal with Mr..
Rockefeller. whereby he obtained con-
troll OF Mr.. Rockefeler's iron ore
holdings which. when turned into the
steel corporation later, formed large
part of the assessed value of $780,
100000.
Mr.. Carnegie laughed like a school,
boy as he referred to the business tri-
umph he had achieved over his "fel-
low millionaire"
To Tell All iie Knows.
Mr.. Carnegie declared he had come
to tell all he knew, but he was un-
able to supply many facts which the
committee desired, stating that he had
never paid any attention to the books
OF the Carnegie company before its
absorption by the steel corporation.
He was particularly emphatic in his
testimony relating to the sale of his
property to the United States Steel
corporation at the behest of j. fier-
pont Morgan, and told the committee
he wanted to end gossip that he had
held out for an unreasonable price.
He also declared that when his part
ner, H. c. Frick. asked him for an
option for unknown persons on the
Carnegie Steel company, that he de-
manded 100000 as an earnest Of
the intentions of the prospective own
ers and that when the deal fell
through and he learned that the
Moores of New York were behind It,
he was surprised.
''IIad known that the Moores Were
behind that option which made on a
valuation of $32O,OOO000," said Mr..
Carnegie, II never would have given
it,"
Justified.
i"When you gave that valuation OF
the Carnegie properties" asked Repre-
sentative Sterllng, "did you consider
the earning power of the concern
justified it?"
YES" said Mr.. Carnegie, "and I'll
tell you why. was asked to give an
option on our property by my part
ner, Mr.. Frick. I gave an option of
$250,000,000, but that did not include
the Frck Coke company, which we
later included at $70,O0O,Op0, making
the total S320,000,000 For such an
option, demanded $2,O00,o00 as an
earnest of good faith, and $1,00O,000,
my share of the 100000, was de-
posted to my account while | was
in Europe. The other million never
was raised"
II never heard until now" he said,
In response to a question. that Mr..
F'rlcl had anything to do with 1t un-
til heard it referred to here"
Mr. Carnegie was asked about the
steel plate association and other pools,
to which the Carnegie company was a
party in the late 'S0s and which con-
tinued until 1904. He said he had
