GEN. HWANG, NSURGENT
CHIEF, KILLED IN CHINA
Commander of First Army Well
Known Here From Media
Residence

Word was received In Philadelphia today
that General Hwang Hsing, commander OF
China's first army has been killed. The
news reached Chester In the form OF n
cablegram.
General Hwang was well known here on
account OF his two years residence at a
beautiful estate on the outskirts of Media
He came to this country when Yuan Shi-kal
became President of China. and dared not
return. Yuan would have given 500, 900 for
the privilege Of killing General Hwang
The General was one OF China's deliver
ers from the Manchus. He antedated Dr.
sun Vat Sen as revolutionist. and even
when Doctor Sun rose to the ascendancy
in directing China's revolution, General
Hwang's voice was almost as powerful He
fell out with Doctor Sun after his cause
triumphed. and also with Yuan, whom he
always said he placed In the Presidency
ruan's displeasure made him flee for his
life. He came to San Francisco, then here
II will be remembered that when Yuan
was agitating a restoration of Chlnas
monarchical character, General Hwang gave
out series Of interviews in which he Bit
terly attacked the project. He was con-
sidering then a return to China but kept
putting 1t of. Finally Yuan died. and Gem
eral Hwang went back, becoming immedi-
ately active In the counsels OF the republic.
The general was a delightful man TO
meet. He couldn't talk English, or at least
would not trust himself In the presence of
strangers, but he enjoyed giving interviews
with the help Of interpreters, and of those
there was always number around. He
would talk on anything. and had unusually
progressive views on everything. He
favored woman suffrage and the progress
sive side Of everything that was brought up.
