Government Without Finances
and, with Troops Unpaid,
Faces Critical Situation.
WARNING FROM MINISTER
He Hints at Loan with Party
Other than Six Power
Group-Field Open to
First Conner.
rBy Cable 10 The Tribune.l

Shanghai. Feb. 5.-It is difficult to
exaggerate the criticalness of the stu
alton here which Frances attitude ere
ates. The government is direfully with
out finances. There are many unpaid
troops, which condition is always fruit
full of trouble. Also, there is general
unrest in many sections, including Pc
king.
There is no telling what the eyentu-
alities will be if money Is not obtained.
The situation certainly Is more danger
Gus than any since the abdication. The
failure of the loan might easily cause
debacle.
Frances objections are n mere quib-
BILE, obviously in behalf of Russia. a
situation thoroughly outrageous merits
strong drastic action on the part Of all
friendly governments. The action Of
France in blocking the loan at this
peculiarly critical moment jeopardizes
China's future interests for every one.
Picking, Feb. 5.-The Chinese Min
lister OF Finance to-day presented let
ter to the six-power group OF bankers
deploring the circumstances which pre-
vented the signing Of the loan agree
ment and the consequent failure Of the
bankers pledge to make immediate adj
vances. The minister points out that
the government is urgently in need OF
funds and that failure to obtain them
will place the country in a dangerous
position.
According to the proposed agree
ment the six-power loan was secured
by the salt revenue" the letter adds.
should any portion OF this hereafter
be hypothecated as security and loan
contracted with another party 1t would
be necessary proportionately to reduce
the $12j,OoO,0OO az stipulated in the
slx-power agreement, in the event OF a
future agreement with this group.
1T was not my original intention TO
make such a condition, but there has
been so much delay on your part and so
many side issues have been pushed for
ward that ! am constrained to do so,
/ however reluctant feel to take such a
| course
Thus while the loan field in China is
apparently still open to the six-power
group. It is now also open to the first

Or. Oertel told OF making test to
determine whether or not a knife blade
could be broken In human neck. The
test he made was on the body of a male
negro Weighing about 100 pounds,

MANUAL SCHOOL
UNDECIDED
Board Has Not Made Up It's
Mind About the Plans.

There has been nothing definite done
regarding the construction of a man
ual training school building in Ham
mond. There is some question in the
minds of the members of the board as
to whether they will use the plans
that have been drawn by Architect J.
T. Hutton or whether an entirely new
set of plans will be made.
1t is understood that the plans
which have been drawn would be ac-
ceptable. but that the specifications
would have to be revised to meet the
ideas of the members of the board.
The matter will be decided at one
of the future meetings of the board.
Before the work can be commenced the
building will have te be financed, but
every effort will be made to get the
thing started this year

Hammond's 1913 Building
Season Will Surpass All
Previous Records; Pro
jects Already Foot UP to
Half Million Dollars.
RESUME0FSTRUCTURES
PlANhEDANOUNDERWAY

There is a half million dollars
worth of building operations under
way in Hammond this very minute
and the outlook for the coming year is
so remarkable that it is not at all un-
likely that building operations will
exceed $1,50O,OOO before the first of
next year.
Most In Building Blocks.
The most remarkable feature of all
this activity is the fact that most of
1t is in the nature of business blocks
and that more frontage on Calumet
avenue will be built up this year than
any o-her section of the city.
Nine business blocks are to be built
on Calumet avenue this year on a
frontage of 345 feet aggregating IS
floors costing a total of s125.0o0. State
street comes forward with three build
ing projects on frontage of 125 feet.
aggregating six floors. total of s46,-
900. and one remodeling job costing
800. 900. Holman street attracts atten-
tlon with the Improvement of I40 feet
of frontage, aggregatiHg four floors
costing a -tatal4af sss.oeo, and two re-
modelling jobs costing $4,000
Building Classification.
Building operations may be classified
as follows: Business blocks, s311, 900;
miscellaneous. s59.500. and residential.
$4,000. None of these figures take
into consideration the s250.000 worth of
building operations that were begun in
1912 and are being finished up in 1913.
A number of small jobs have been
omitted. no doubt. so that the grand
total Of the projects under way at this
early season approximates $500, 900.
This Is a matter tfrat will interest
every business man in the city 1t in :
