CHINA REPUBLIC DISCUSSED.
Double Phase of Interest includes Rec
ignition Of Nation and Loan
Desired.

Washington, D. C.-President Will
son will present for the consideration
of the cabinet statement concerning
China in which is intended to be made
public from the White House later
White House and state department Of
ficials observed the strictest secrecy
about the statement, and none would
venture in intimation as to it's prob
able contents.
It is known that the president and
Secretary of State Bryan have had sew
eral conferences on the subject OF
China, and particularly long talk held
in the executive offices just before the
secretary's departure for the west was
said to have been devoted largely to
Chinese questions.
There are two phases OF the Chi
nese situation in which the United
States is peculiarly interested-recog-
milton of the republican government
now nearly two years old, and the
proposed six-power loan.
The Chinese republic continually
has sought recognition, but the policy
of President Taft and his secretary OF
state, Mr.. Knox, was to withhold rec
ognition until the new government
had demonstrated to the world Its
ability to maintain itself as a real re-
public, administering popular gov
eminent.

STORM HALTS RESCUE.
Exploration Ship Aurora Returns to
Tasmania With 81 of 80
Members

Members.
Hobart, Tasmania. - The Antarctic
exploration ship Aurora has returned
here with "a out of the 80 members of
the expedition commanded by DR..
Douglas Mawson. The Aurora will re-
main here until the Antarctic Spring,
and then proceed to Adelaideland to
bring home DR.. Mawson and five other
members of his party, who have ample
supplies of food to last them until
they are relieved. OF the original
party, Lieutenant B. E. S. MINIS, OF
the Royal Fusilliers, and DIR. Xavier
Merz died in the polar regions.
The officers of the Aurora say they
were unable to embark DR.. Mawson's
party owing to hurricane and to have
waited longer in the south would have
endangered the lives of DR.. Wilde and
his sledging party Of eight men, who
were on dangerous glacier waiting
to be taken off before the sea froze
again. They were rescued February
%, then, owing to the 1ateness OF the
season, the Aurora was obliged to hur-
ry back to Hobart, as she was running
short of provisions.
DR.. Wilde took possession, on be
half of Great Britain, of all the coast
from Kaiser Wilhelmland to the 101st
degree east longitude, and named 1t
King George the Fifth Land.

WORKERS LIVE IN
SQUALD HOMES
Half Of Men Work for So a
Week or Less.
Rooms Overcrowded, Sanitation
Poor and Families Obliged
to Live Without Privacy. a

Albany, N. Y.-The report of the
state labor department. on it's investi-
cation of conditions among the Little
Falls textile workers brought to pub
lie attention by the recent strike
was made public.
Certainly it is a matter of grave
public concern" the report says,
when a considerable body of wage
earners are found living in such con-
dltlons as are revealed by this report
There is reason to suppose that more
or less similar conditions are to be
found elsewhere"
The investigators report that, prior
to the strike, half of the men workers
received weekly wage of 50 or less,
while half of the women received less
than $3.50. "The settlement of the
strike" the report adds, "made but
little, If any, change in conditions as
to wages" Monthly rents for the
space occupied by a single family or
group run from Sc to $1S.
OF living conditions, the report says:
"The houses are frame structures,
built singly or in groups. Bathrooms
are entirely absent, leaky roofs make
dry rooms impossible Ventilation al
ways is bad. Cellars were found filed
with water, ashes, waste, garbage and
manure.
Sleeping rooms are small, general
ly when the number of occupants
which they accommodate is consid-
cred. Some are windowless. Over
crowding is the rule. Owing to ignor-
ance of the need of fresh air in a
sleeping room, windows are kept con-
stantly closed, even the cracks being
filled or covered The air of the
sleeping rooms is charged with odors
from the witchen, the washtubs, the
garbage heap and the cellars, and in
this condition is breathed again and
again by the sleepers.
In each household one room serves
as a kitchen, while all others are
sleeping rooms. The kitchen is also
a dining room, living room, wash
room and laundry, and in some cases
a sleeping room. The head of the
household is not simply the head of
the family, nor even in the usual
meaning of the term, boarding
housekeeper. The housewife is the
real head-is rather the financial
agent of the members of her house
hold, herself and her immediate fam
lily forming only. part of such an
organization.
"The term family is little used in
this report. This is Intentional. Fam
lily privacy is thing unknown to the
textile workers. This cannot be cred
tied to a low moral standard, for ply
sicians testify to relatively high
standard of morals.
Dealers state that the mill work
ers buy fairly good grade of food,
but of the children enrolled in the
schools, one-sixth are reported suffer
ing from malnutrition."

way Thursday when she steamed
down the Delaware river for one of
the most venturesome voyages of mod
ern times.
The yacht is owned by the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania and is bound for
Brazil with daring party of explorers
who purpose penetrating to the far
reaches of the Amazon and to the
headwaters of many of its mighty trib-
utaries in the interest of science and
humanity. They seek what is known
as the "lost world" in the basin OF
the Amazon.
The expedition has been organized
and equipped by the University Mu-
scum. It will be gone about three
years and it is expected to reach re-
gions never before visited by white
men.
The yacht is in command of Captain
J. C. Rowen, United States Navy, re-
tired, and the expedition is headed by
DIR. William G. Larrabee, curator OF
the American section of the Museum.

WOMEN PLAsrERED WITH MUD
Ten Thousand Men Attack Suffra9'S'
Speakers.

Ten Thousand Men Attack SunraS'S'
Speakers.
London. - The suffragrettes WIN
again attempted to hold Sunday al'-
ernoon meeting in Hyde Park were
mobbed by crowd of 10000 persons
They were pelted with clods, oranges
and other missiles, and when the po-
lice were escorting them from the
scene the rioters tore off the hats anu
cloaks of the women, and even STRUCK
some of them in the face.
The trouble began when General
Mrs. Flora Drummond mounted d
wagon and started to speak to the
great assemblage, which was largely
made up of youths who had armed
themselves with ammunition of varl-
Gus descriptions or with trumpets'
mouth organs and bells.
Her appearance at the front OF the
platform was the signal for an out
burst of deafening noise and bonn
bardment of missiles. She had hardly
uttered a word when clod OF turf
struck here on the mouth.
Mrs. Drummond maintained her
good nature, smiled at her tormentors
and continued her speech amid a YER
liable tornado of abuse, catcalls, rag
time choruses and cries of go home
to your children"
For half an hour the crowds shouted,
sang and pelted the suffragette COM
mander-in-chief, whose clothes soon
were a mass of mud. AT last Mrs.
Drummond's speech, of which not a
word was audible, came to an end and
younger woman took her place. She
Jared no better, and the police, realiz-
ing the danger the women were IN,
called upon the chairman to close the
meeting.
A large force Of police, mounted and
afoot, drew in about the suffragette
wagon, and under the escort the wom-
en- were led out of the park.

SIXTY OR MORE DEAD IN
EASTERN CYCLONES WAKE

Chicago-More than so persons are
reported killed and hundreds are in
jured, some of them seriously, by a
storm of tornado intensity which
ragged over Central, Western and
Southern and parts of Eastern states
Saturday. Property damage will run
well into the millions.
Definite Information has been re-
ceived accounting for more than 40
persons dead, with reports from points
temporarily cut off from wire COM
munication by the storm adding hour
ly to the list.
Reports from Alabama show the
the number of dead there being al
ready placed at %.
Two are dead in Indiana, two in
Tennessee, three in Ohio, two in New
York, one in Michigan and two in
Louisville.
The greatest loss of life is reported
from Lower Peach Tree, Ala, where
a cyclone which struck that place de-
molished the town and killed q per-
sons. Seventeen of the dead are white
persons. Thirtytwo were hurt, some
fatally, by the twister, which did prop
erty damage estimated at $150,000
and then swept on to Fulton, Ala,
where so persons were injured, but
none killed.
The storm swept with great fury
over dozen states, left in its wake
a long train of death. At Poplar Bluff,
Mo-, five persons were killed and so
injured in the crash of the falling
buildings, while at Hoxie, Ark, one
was killed and GO persons injured and
the town virtually wiped out. A big
hotel in the course of construction
was blown down and the roof was
thrown on another building, crushing
it and injuring dozen occupants.

PEACE TERMS RE-
FUSED BY TURKS
Armies Resume Activities and
Situation Is Gloomy.
Greeks Capture 1870 Men and 30 Of
Hcers-Europe Considers De-
mand Extravagant.

London.-There is no prospect for
acceptance by Turkey of the peace
terms as proposed by the allies. Dis
patches from Constantinople say the
leading members of the committee of
union and progress have decided that
the conditions cannot be accepted, and
1t Is understood that the Council of
Ministers has adopted the same view.
The Grand Vizier, Mahmoud Shefket
Pasha, visited the Red Crescent So
c1ety and begged the members to con-
tinue their efforts, as the government
was resolved to continue the war.
All other capitals and among the
ambassadors in London the allies de-
mands are considered extravagant, es-
pecially with regard to the payment
OF indemnity and the cession of Scutari
and the Aegean Islands.
In the meantime agitation against
Bulgaria continues in Greece. The
Greeks In Thrace and Eastern Mace
don1a have sent a petition to Athens
against their Incorporation by Bull
CARA. Premier Venizelos, in reply,
boldly declared that he long ago had
notified the allies that Greece laid no
claim of Thrace. This announcement
made In the Chamber of Deputies,
aroused vigorous protests.
With the improvement in weather
conditions, the armies in the Near East
nave become more active, although
thus far no news of pitched battle
OF any importance has come through.
According to official reports issued
at Sofia, the Bulgarians and Turks at
Tchatalja have had accommodating par.
sharp engagement resulted. Two Bull
garian parties sent out in the direc-
ton Of Akalon took redoubt to the
east of that village at the point of the
bayonet.
The Turks, having been reinforced,
tried to recapture the redoubt, but in
the attack lost 300 dead and wounded
who were left on the field.
The same day the Turks advanced
toward Kadikoui, but were repulsed.
According to reports, conditions In
the Gallipoli Peninsula are quiet. The
Turkish warships are reported to have
bombarded the Bulgarian positions at
Silivri, but with what result is not
known.
Late advices say the Montenegrin
siegs guns have begun a fierce bonn
bardment of Scutari, portion Of
which is in flames.
The Greeks continue to gather II
stray bodies Of Turks. Near Arnitss
the Greek cavalry captured two Turk
ish battalions, comprising 1870 mer
and 30 officers.

Eioht-Hour Day Bill Vetoed.

Reno, Nev.-After pursuing rocky
pathway through the legislature, bill
having maximum of eight hours a
day labor for women was vetoed by
Governor Oddie. The veto was sus-
tanned in the senate. Although ex-
pressing himself as in sympathy with
the object of the act, Governor Oddie
said in his veto message that an eight
hour day for women in this state was
not practicable and would prove more
Injurious than beneficial to women
wage-earners. The overworking OF
women, he said, was condition not
existing in Nevada as in other states.

JUDGING CURE

Reports That officials Expressed
Opinions As to Friedmann's
Success Denied.

Washington.-The Public Health
Service, through Surgeon-General
Blue, issued it's first statement here
relative to the Government investiga-
ton of DR.. F. F. Friedmann's alleged
tuberculosis cure. The statement,
which emphasizes the Governments
policy to proceed cautiously, is as fol-
lows:
ION March the Secretary of the
Treasury, on the recommendation of
the SurgeOn-General of the Public
Health Service, caused board of
medical officers to be detailed to make
thorough investigation of DR.. Fried
mann's alleged cure for tuberculosis.
These officers proceeded immedi-
ately to New York and arranged with .
DR.. Friedman for demonstrations of
his remedy upon persons suffering
from tuberculosis. These demonstra-
tons are being carried on in New
York hospitals and will be continued
until sufficient information has been
obtained for the forming Of an opinion
as to the merits of the treatment.
DR.. friedman has submitted to
the board a culture of the bacteria,
which he states is used in his method
OF treatment. In addition to the OBJ
servation of persons under treatment
by DR.. friedman, the board of Off
GERS will make experiments to ascer-
tain whether this culture is, as DR..
Friedman claims, harmless to warm
blooded animals.
Considerable time will necessarily
be required to carry out the investi-
cation, but the work will be carried
out as rapidly as possible.
I'm the meantime the public is in
formed of the inadvisability in the
great majority of cases of travelling
long distances in the hope of receiv-
| ing treatment, as those selected for
demonstration constitute only small
proportion of applicants.
Certain statements purporting to
| be expressions of the opinion of the
board of officers of the Public Health
Service bearing on the investigation
have appeared in newspapers. These
officers have expressed no opinion and
will not be in position to do so until
the work has advanced sufficiently to
warrant some knowledge in regard to
DR.. Friedmann's treatment

Echoes of the Sioux
uprising led by Chitting in 1890 were
heard here in the Supreme Court Of
the United States, when two cattle
companies which lost thousands of
cattle during the Indian raids aban-
doned appeals from suits brought in
the Court of Claims to recover from
the Government.
The Court of Claims held that the
Indians were not in enmity with the
Federal Government at the time the
cattle we're taken, and therefore, un-
der the statute, the companies were
not entitled to recover.
