TWO REPUBLICS ID ACCEPT LARGE LOAN Republicans. in China Still
 DiStrust President
 Yuan Shi Kai

Picking, February 2S.-The Ranking and Picking governments have agreed to let bankers representing Great Britain, France. Germany and the United States advance a loan of s2.0oo.ooo to Ranking and $3,o00,000 to Peklng to provide for payments to the troops. Unless the troops are paid it IS feared anarchy will in- crease. The money is payable immedi ately and will probably be absorbed in a large loan to be contracted as soon as the coalition cabinet is formed.
 Reports differ regarding the intention of Yuan Shi Kai to go south in com- pliance with the request of the Ranking republicans, but the opinion is held at the legations that the re-establishment of an effective central government will prove a grave problem and that instead of immediate progress the development of China may be seriously retarded.
 Yuan shi Kai. foreseeing in the idea of federated provinces recurrence of the very troubles which precipitated the revolution, is endeavoring, according to some views, to obtain autocratic powers. The republicans continue to entertain a certain distrust for Premier Yuan Shi Kai and new difficulties have developed since the abdieation.
 One report current is that Yuan Shit Kai will proceed to Ranking within q fortnight, after the formation of the cabinet and the appointment of Tang Shoa VI as premier. The premier would then remain in charge in the north dur ing Yuans absence.

1HR0 INFR0MST0RE AND DIES AT ONCE Dan O'Hara Met a Peculiar
 Death Last Night COLITZOS IS IN JAIL Spectators Say Restaurant Man Threw O'Hara to Sidewalk and
 That His Neck Was
CoLITzos IS IN JAIL

George Colitzos, prorietor of small lunch counter near Twenty-second street and Second avenue, was placed in the city jail last night about S:So o'clock oh . charge of murdering Dan OHara, an Irish boilermaker.
 Although all of the available eye wit nesses of the affair seem to be of the Greek nationality, there were several peo- ple standing on the outside of the build ing at the time of the trouble. It was stated last night that O'Hara had entered the restaurant and was sitting beside an old man of foreign nationality. While eating his supper he fell forward on the table, and when he did not talk Colitzos elected him from the room.
 T. H. Rodgers, a local boilermaker, stated last night that he was directly in front of the restaurant when the door opened and Colitzos threw O'Hara out on the walk. Rodgers states that O'Hara fell on his face and this statement is upheld by the fact that the right side of O'Hara's s face is skinned up slightly. Rodgers stated that when he reached OHara the injured mans face was almost black
 It is believed that oHara's neck was broken when he struck the sidekalk as there were no marks on his body to indi- cate the use of knife or bullet wound. Dr. Whalen will hold an autopsy as soon as possible. e-e s'e
 The Lige Loy ambulance was called and started to take O'Hara to a hospital, but when they had reached Twentieth street 1t was discovered that O'Hara was dead, and the body was taken to the Lige Loy morgue.
 Policemen Wyatt and Cole, who helped to arrest Solitzos, stated that there had been no trouble in the restaurant last night.
 Mir. Rodgers said last night that he thought O'Hara had some relatives in Chattanooga, but that O Hara's home was in New York. He said that O'Hara. had been working at the Lynn Iron works as a boilermaker for some time past. The Lynn shops are at the corner of First avenue and Fourteenth street.
 A Boilermakers' union card was found on the clothes of the dead man, as was also card indicating that he was a member of the Fraternal Order of Moose. The Boilermakers union will take charge of the body. Funeral arrangements had not been made last night.
 O'Hara was reported to have been room ing at Fulers on Twentysecond street, between Second and Third avenues. When brought to the morgue he had on his working clothes and his hands were cov- cred with dirt, indicating that he had bene working yesterday.
 ;, Dr. Charles Whelan, city physician, inspected the body at the morgue las. night anc stated thutshes would hold- an autopsy this morning. He said that GlGniGf0nS OHara met death by foul play. but that everything would be disclosed at the autopsy. At the inspection last night 1t appeared that O'Hara's neck was not broken and there is a chance that he choked to death.

 About Tennessee Company
 In this connection after a lengthy an alysis of the taking over of the Tennes- see Coal and Iron company in 1907, the report says
 '.It may not be possible to state the true intention in acquiring the Tennessee com pany in way which would be admitted by the men in control of the Steel cor poraton, inasmuch as it appears to many experienced men who are also disinerest- ed, that the intention which impelled it's acquisition was merely the desire to bring under the control of the Steel cor. poration the great possibilities for com petition possessed by the Tennessee com pany. The consequence of the acquisi- ton should and must be held to have been intended in legal contemplation even if the result so deduced conflict with the intention declared to be In the minds of those responsible
 The requirement of 45 plants. listed in the report, including many small bridge, wire, nail sheet steel and other con cerns.
