AbD|CAT|ON Of
THE THRONE
Is Followed by Ecicts 0rderinq Es-
tablishment of New Regime And
Urging Peace.

IekilS, req. I5.-After occupy
ing the throne of China for nearly
three centuries, the Manchu Dynas-
ty, represented by the child -emper-
or. Pu vi. abdicated Monday. Three
edits were issued, the first proclaim
ing abdication; the second dealing
with the establishment of the re-
public; and the third urging the
maintenance of peace and approving
the conditions agreed upon by Yuan
Shi kai and the Republicans.
The text of the first Imperial ediet
issued by the throne at noon Mon
day is as follows:
1--WE, the Emperor of China, have
respectfully received today the fol-
lowing edict from the hands of her
NASTY, the Dowager Empress:
in consequence of the uprising
of the Republican army, to which the
people of the provinces of China
have responded, the empire is seeth-
ing like boiling cauldOn and the
people are plunged in misery.
"Yuan Shi Kai was therefore
commanded to dispatch commission
ers in order to confer with the Re-
publicans with a view to the calling
of national assembly to decide on
the future form of government.
Months have elapsed and no settle
ment is now evident.
"The majority of the people are
i'll favor of a Republic. From the
preference of the peoples hearts the
will of heaven is discernible. How
could We oppose the desires of mil
Hons for the glory of one family?
Therefore. we, the Dowager I'm
press and the Emperor, hereby vest
the sovereignty of the Chinese En-
pire in the people.
''Let Yuan Shi Kai organize to the
full the powers of the provisional
Republican government. and confer
with the Republicans as to the meth
DDS of union, assuming peace in the
Empire, and forming a great repub-
lie with the union of Manchu Chi
nese. Mongols, Mohammedans and
Tibetans."
And at an audience Sunday, the
Empress Dowager, touchingly thank
ed Yuan Shi Kai for his successful
efforts in obtaining good treatment
for the Imperial family. The publ
cation of the edicts has given pro-
found relief to everyone in Picking,
both the foreigners and Chinese.
The arrangement is considered to
be skilled compromise and it is be-
lieved the terms will satisfy the Re-
prblicans.

STATE COMMITTEE
s'. UPHOLDS CANTR|LL
Vote is 9 to 4 to Sustain The Snap
Action Taken by Seventh Con-
qressional District Body.


Especial to The News.)
Lexington, KY, Feb. 13.-The
meeting of the Democratic State Cen
trail Committee in Lexington Mon
day.. which ended in another victory
Cor Congressman j. Campbell Can
trill, was a regular Kilkenny cat
affair. so far as the Democratic
brethren were concerned. And thai
it resulted in third consecutive VIC
tory within a month for the red
headed farner-politician from
Scott county was no surprise to
those who know that gentleman's
peculiar habit of getting away with
the horns, hide and hair of his OPP
ponents.
Mr.. Cantrill won his contention for
a primary March 16 by the follow
ing votes:
For Cantrill CALI. w. Pugh,
State-at-Large: n P. Taylor. Sec

Mr.. Cantrill in his address to the
committee, said some mighty mean
things about Judge Sam Wilson, OF
Lexington. He accused the Judge OF
being a Republican election officer
In the Goebel election of 1899, OF
having sought the Republican en-
dorsement for Congress on Fusion
ticket in 1910, and Of having been
in sympathy generally with the cuss-

did they become vocif,rous when
Cantrill asked 'if the time had come
in the Seventh District when the
State Central Committee should turn
over the Democratic party to the
men who had knitted it very chance

By the way a great hole was torn
in the alleged Democratic harmon!
that is said to prevail in the Seventh
District. Cantrill had only 2,9N

cAAUTAUQUA
ASSEMBLY
Proposition is Made to Commercial
Cub Of Winchester by Redpath
Bsrsau Of Chicago.

s-~>
establishment of a Chautauqua As
sembly in Winchester for 1912. Tn,
Redpath Bureau, of Chicago, ha.
presented a proposition to the Com.
merciAl Club, which, after careful
consideration it has cordially en-
dorsed.
J, The. proposition is is follows
The Redpath Bureau proposes to put
, on a seven day assembly Of the high
! est possible class at their own OK
pense to do all the advertising. and
work Of administration, to take the
risk Of profit or loss if Winchester
kfll do two things:
1. Furnish suitable location.
2. Sell $50 season tickets at s.
each.
Also the Redpath Bureau offers
to make the assembly cooperative
All season tickets sold above the $50
guarantee up to 1000 will be divided
equally between Bureau and some
public charity.
Also when the total receipts shall
reach $1,000 the cost Of the Assem-
bly, to Bureau, then the further re-
receipts shall also be equally divid-
ed.
Then, too, the refreshment per-
centages are to be given to the people
Of Winchester.
This proposition is feasible and is
easily within the reach Of this city,
end with the cooperation of the diff
ferent elements, can be made a great
success. Nothing that could come in
20 the city would be more to the up
lift, the entertainment and benefit of
the. citizens than to bring the great
men of the day, the best music and
the. finest entertainers into contact
with the people. 1t wall benefit Win
chester in several ways.
sAs an advertisement Of the city it
will be worth a great deal, for on the
great days, people will come for
miles around.
In an educational way, it will give
the city distinction above the cities
round about. and as moral uplift
It will be invaluable.
:, Let's all get together on this good
matter and make a long and strons
pull to make the Chautauqua
q success. Some of the notable
things on the program proposed are.
a famous Italian band, a world ia
nous opera singer with a support of
four voices, two big political men
Of the calibre Of Bryan, Folk or La
Toilette, etc. A Boy Scout Master,
who has been trained for the work
will make things lively for the boys
and girls. In all twenty-one different
lectures, entertainments and musical
companies giving some thirty-fve
separate entertainments.
! An effort is soon to be made to dis
pose of the tickets.

Race Bound To Be Close and

the President.

This is going TO be the greatest season
IN the history OF the International League,
declared President Edward G. Barrow
when seen at his offices In tho ST James
Building yesterday. He had Just hnlshed
instructing his umpires on how to conduct
themselves during the 1912 race. when pe-
gins on Thursday and promises to outsnihe
all others in interest and closeness.
Mr. Barrow is enthusiastic over tho pros"
nects of his league for Its first season uhder
its new and high sounding title ana ad-
vancement to higher class. He expresseo
himself as confident that the changes at
Providence, Jersey City and Newark had
created renewed interest In those clties'
He believes the clubs representing them 10
be fully 70 per cent stronger than last year
and that the fans" will show their appre-
ciation by turning out record preakins
crowds on opening day and throughout the
season. He added:
The attendance at Baltimore. Bunalo.
Toronto and Rochester compares favoraoly
with that of the big league cities at all

season ends"
When asked what he thought of the
newspaper article sent out from an Amerl-
can Association town proclaiming that or
eanIzation to be stronger and paying bigger
salaries. etc, President Barrow laughed
and said the story was Joke. Continuing
he said
"The international League Is conceded by
all baseball men to be stronger In every
way than tho American Association. we
not only have double the population 10
draw from, but we have bigger and better
plnnts in all OF our cities. AS to the rela-
tive playing strength OF the two leagues,
will be generous enough to say that con-
slider them nearly equal In that respect
although we defeated them badly In the
two interleague series that were played In
1906 and 1907 AS to their claim regarding
salaries. any we'll informed baseball man
or player will tell you that we pay hiBher
salaries than any other organization out
side of the two majors. In fact, In great
many cases we are paying our players
more than they received in the big leagues
President Barrow has assigned his UNI
pires for the opening games as follows:
Kelly and Howell at Newark. Murray ana
Matthews at Providence, Byron and Mullen
at Baltimore and Guthrie and Doyle at
Jersey City.
Mr.. Barrow will attend the opening game
at Providence.

ERNE A FALSE ALARM
Outboxed by "Knockout" Brown
in Ten Lively Rounds.
BOUT A DISAPPOINTMENT
Philadelphia Boy Shows Well IN
Flashes, but Fails to

Knockout" Brown, the East Side l,9ht.

Erne, of Philadelphia, In ten rounds Of hoy.

night. The battle was a disappointment,
The highly heralded Erne was slow and he
could not hit. Brown kept right after him
all the time and wore him down with body
punches.
At intervals Erne tore loose, and wh,ls
he beat Brown in those rallies, the latter
did most Of tho landing. He had the bet.
ter of five of the ten rounds. Erne scored
in four, while one was even.
1t was at infghtng that Erne held forth.
but while he managed TO draw blood from

driven back and was never tired whereas
Erne was forced to cover and stall 10

hard left to the Jaw and followed with
a right TO the body. Erne beat retreat,
but later called upon his science and landed
several hard, clean blows.
Erne carried off the honors in the third
and fourth rounds. He took Browns left
hand punches on his elbow and popped his
own left to the face without return. He
landed his right on the head frequently, bus
Brown swayed with the lead and was In no
danger Frne fought in rallies and when
he landed his blows lacked force.
Those who sat at the ringside wondered
how the report that Erne beat Mike Glib

The fifth round marked the beginning OF
Browns march to victory. The blond
haired Teuton lowered his tousled head and
charged In. He wasn't clever, he wasn't
stylish-he didn't have TO be-but he was
effective. His body punches wore the
Quaker City lad down. Erne boxed pret@
