A third caller on the President was

MANY MAKE CALLS
ON PRESIDENT TAFT
AFTER HIS RETURN
White House Again Presents
Scenes of Great
Activity.

The White House again became a
place of great activity this morning
following the return of President Taft
from his Western trip.
Congressman Harrison. one of the
Presidents callers, came to urge the
appointment OF n. d. Goodwin as post
master at Gulport, Miss. Mr.. Goodwin
is Democrat. The retirement of the
former incumbent was forced by ILL
ness. Tt is likely, in spite of Congress
man Harrlson's recommendation, that
a Republican will be appointed to the
vacancy.
A message which was intended to he

Walter Clarke of Alaska, who told the
President that fifty-six more delegates

YUAN A PRISONER,

Foreigners in Peking Lega-
tions Ready to Repulse
Attack.

PEKING, March 12.-President Yuan
Shi Kai is n prisoner in his own pal
ace. The fate of the great republic
of China still hangs in the balance.
Three regiments of Manchu troops
guard the entrances to the palace where
the newly installed ruler of the new
nation remains, afraid to venture forth
because of the danger of assassination.
Foreigners are virtually prisoners In
the legation compounds. The outcome
Is impossible to forecast tonight, but
the final test must come before many
days
The streets OF the city are hideous
with headless bodies. The bodies are
those of the men punished for
looting during the recent roting.
Few were guilty. Not a single
body observed was in uniform. All
were civilians, the majority being cool
les. They were slain because it was
necessary to provide victims to back up
Yuan's declaration that bandits we're
being punished.
Real Thieves In Uniform.
And while these helpless victims were
being deCapitated by the headsmcn,
armed with their long. heavy, razor
edge swords, the real thieves. all
garbed in uniform and many bearing
on their collars the insignia showing
they were officers of the imperial army,
were carrying out of the city thousands
of wagon loads of the most valuable
loot. Gold, silver silk, and other treas
ures taken from the houses of the
looted have been stored In safe places.
And the majority of the rioters are back
with the regular army dehantly wait
| ing for tho signal to turn again to
| looting and murder.
The old-style troops, with their piCtur-
esque uniforms and equipment, have
been banlshed. They were ordered TO
Tung-Ho after they had torn from the
| walls of the city the flags of the great
| republic, raised in honor of the taking
Of the oath of office by President Yuan.
They are bitter against the republic
] and the republican leaders but Yuan
dares not disband them. He does not
| know what minute he may be called
| on to summon them to the aid of his
| Manchu troops and the loyal forces of
| the third division, who stand between
| him and another uprising.
Legation Quarter Guarded
The legation quarter here is closed
and carefully guarded. Cannon and

President Taft Has Given Good
Government to the People.

From 1882 to 1892 the ordinary ex-
penses of the federal government In

period they increased about per
cent year Under the presidency of
Mr.. Roosevelt the annual increase
was almost per cent Mr. Taft has
not only stopped this annual increase.
which had SO long seemed inevitable,
but has actually brought about a de-
crease. Under Mr.. Roosevelt the or
binary annual expenses OF the gov
eminent grew from about SAT- ,000, 900
to $662, 100000. an increase of $751;.
100000 In seven years. Mr.. Taft has
