J.: Pier pont Morgan was at the head of the American branch of the world syndicate that was. to furnish fifty millions, while some other Pierp's of England Germany, ,etc., were to put up the balance. China proved that it is a progressive Repub- lie when it refused to wait the pleasure of the money powers, and quietly arranged a loan through aprivate agency, and notwithstanding the croaklng of the. sore money-lenders the amount of the loan is being gradually paid over. The lat est phaze of the situation IS the suggestion that unless China gets good, and repudi- ates its private banking ar

They have gone into every state aud territory in the United States. There may be some in your town. They are giving them away everywhere to men, women, boys and girls, over IS years of age, on surpris- ingly liberal conditions.

The Campaign Fund Hunt

One of the greatest galaxles of celebrities known to the political and commercial world assembled since Congressman Stanley, of Kentucky, started his big show to investigate the steel trust, IS that now assem- bled by order of the United State Senate to invesitage campaign funds, past, present and perphaps prospective. Colonel Roosevelt has been here but once since he Jeff the Presidency, but he was anx- ious to tell his side of the Ar chbold controversy, involving his previous presidential cam paigns, and the connection ot the Standard Oil. Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania, one of the men who has been stir ing up things along with his other activities intended to save his political scalp, has been one of the big factors of this investigation, and then there have been J. Pierpont Morgan, August Belmont, Al ten B. Parker and a host oI others, all of whom were sup posed 10 be able to throw some light upon the great Secrets as to what part the trusts play ed in the campaigns before they became persona "non est with the American peo- pie. The Standard Oil has been particularly liberal with the campaign collectors, and now Senator Clappe and his committee are supposed tc find out the reason why. Al the time phase of the inves- tigation is the relation of the woolen trust to the campaign managers, and ndrepresentatives of the big wool manufacturers and the campaign managers are to be questioned, to dis cover whether there has been. any co nnection between the large campaign contributions of the woolen men and the legislative course of the two woolen revision bills, which have passed Congress, and been vetoed by the President.
 For two years Washington has housed all sorts of inves- tigations, and what is liable to happen in the present h. stance night be foretold by the results of the steel inquiry when as now the mighty Nor gan's, Carnegies Rockefellers, and so on, assembled, and when they had gotten through with their tales they have sue ceeded in throwing so much dust in the eyes of the public as to absolutely befuddle Con gress and the public.
 The indications are, how ever, that campaign funds in large blocks is forthcoming, and Since tainted money" Is no longer desired it is a little difficult to understand who is
