Picking, Nov. 2.-The recent admoni-
ton OF the entente powers expressing
dissatisfaction with China as an ally
and pointing out that she would have
to do her part TO insure representation
at the peace conference. which was
embodied in conversations. was con-
veyed in the following paragraphs;
/. After her entry into the entente
group Of belligerent nations and her
declaration Of war against. Germany
and Austria Hungary. China demanded
from the allies the postpone
ment of the Boxer indemnity and APP
preparation Of the surplus Of the GUS
toms revenue. This was at once
agreed to by the allies in the hope that
China might make good use OF these
funds SO as to develop her industries
and supply the allies with raw ma
terials and promote the common in
terests Of the allies in China 1t Is
deeply depiored, however. that the
prolonging the civil strife. In this way
the allied nations feel that their good
will has not been duly appreciated by
China.

reau has been established for Ions
time. II is only such an organ in name
The army under its control is not
properly organized and no portion Of IT

China 10 not heartily helping the allies.
3. In spite OF the allies repeated re-
quests to dismiss the Taoyin Hello,
who was reported to have supplied the
boisheviki with foodstuffs, the Chinese
government has not done so. This
shows that the Chinese government Is
inclined to give protection to officials
who are In communication with tho
enemy.
II. 1t was agreed upon between
China and the allies that lawsuits be-
tween allied and enemy subjects should
be tried in courts Mt which the consuls
of the nations concerned should DC
allowed to have seats In order that
justice might be assured. Now In the
trial Of enemy subjects arrested IN
Tientsin and UrEa the local authori-
ties declined to allow the allied con-
suls to attend the courts OF Justice.
These cases were not publicly tried
and the enemy subjects were not
severely dealt with.
u. II China will speedily and COM
pletely carry out the agreements Pc
tween her participation In the Euro
pean war and also the measures STAYED
above. and discharge faithfully her
duties as an allied belligerent, she
will be entitled to enjoy equal privi-
leges with the allies at the peace con-
ference to be held after the close OF
the great war.
The attention Of the Chinese govern
ment Is called to the various points
mentioned above.

Davenport. Dec. 3s.-Negligence OF
Davenport housewives has killed l35
hogs on one Scott county farm, accord
ing to figures disclosed by the Tri-City
Disposal Company. Three of the finest
hogs on the farm died Thursday.
In every instance. post mortem ex-
aminations showed that the swine were
killed by glass they ate with garbage
collected from Davenport homes.
The hog farm Of the disposal com,
pany is about a mile beyond the west
ern city limits on Telegraph road. They
are fed mainly on garbage collected by
the company. which is working under
contract with the city.
Time after time the officials OF the
company have appealed to housewives
to use care in separating glass and
other solid refuse from the pure gar
bage. Evidently these appeals have
had little effect, for the hogs continue
TO die.
Broken glass is about the only thins
q hog eats that will cause its death.
And broken glass, thrown careiessry
into the garbage by the housewives OF
Davenport, has caused the terrioie
waste of food at the disposal company
farm.
One more the company is appealing
to housewives to use common care IN
this matter. If one receptacle is pro-
vided for broken glass, paper. tin cans
and other similar refuse. and another
separate receptacle for the pure gar
base. this waste will be avoided and
the disposal company will collect octn
classes of garbage just the same.
Under a city ordinance, persons VINO
mix garbage with other refuse are
liable TO arrest and fine The COM
rany does not wish to take advantage
Of this ordinance except as last re-
sort. and for this reason is merely Is
