Chinese Cut OFF onenes.

New York.-A celebration of the es-
Enlistment of the Chinese republic CO.
incident with the inaugurated of its
first president, was held in Chinatown,
Monday. Hundreds of Chinese rushed
to their BARRIERS early in the day and
had their queues cut away, severing, as
they said, the last symbol of Manchu
rule. At noon, when 5000 Chinese gath
cred for the celebration, not a queue
was seen.
Many of the Cinnamon also shook of
their sandals, and in heavy American
shoes climbed the stairs of the old joss
house in Mott street, which was re-
christened 'The Chinese Public hall, -
and gravely bowed before a large por-
trait of the new president, DR.. Sun Vat
Sen.

War Causes Low Prices.

Seattle.-Instead of forcing up the
price of -four, as most wars do, the Chi
nese revolution has demoralized the
market. This is due to the fact that
Chinese merchants and dealers prefer
to clean up their stocks of breadstuffs
for actual silver, which they can hoard,
than to run the risk Of having their
stocks of flour eonfscated by. the i'm
perialists or the revolutiorists, or looted
by thieves.
