CHINESE BEGIN T tt Merchant Princes Decide to Buy No More Ameri can Goods: " ' t MEETING HELD JN SHANGHAI Trade Guilds at Five Ports Put Boy cott In Effect, but Government Will Oppose It Rc formsln China. SHANGHAI, July 20. (Special.)-At a meeting: last night participated In by 500 of the Chinese merchant princes, it was resolved to boycott American goods. There were many Chinese ladies present, and they were given the right of speech and voted for the resolutions. The merchants behind the movement are arranging for another meeting to day, at which will be arranged the de tails for putting into practical operation the boycott. FIVE PORTS BEGIN BOYCOTT Only Likely to Be .Effective In Can ton and Shanghai. WASHINGTON. July 19. The State De partment has been informed by Its Con mils that the Chinese boycott against American goods, which was Instituted today, was organized by the trade guilds in five ports. Shanghai, Canton, Tien tsin. Hankow and Niuchwang. It Is believed the boycott will not be suc cessful or do any particular Injury to American goods, except In the cities of Canton and Shanghai, where the guilds are stronger than elsewhere. There is no official action which the United States Government can take as long as it remains a. simple boycott or refusal to purchase American goods, but U Is thought the boycott will be dis couraged by the Chinese Government as far as possible. REFORM MOVEMENT IS BEGUN Chinese Government Will Infuse Modern Ideas in People. PBKIN. July 20.-(SpecIal.)-Chlna has awakened and, if the signs are read aright. It Is the Intention of the Imperial government to seize the opportunity that the termination of the Russo-Japanese War presents and make gigantic efforts to infuse up-to-date ideas in It's people. Sweeping reforms are to be Inaugurated and the initial step of the government will be to send officials of the War Of fice to all parts of the world, immediately upon the termination of the war, to In vestigate all systems of constitutional government. The Viceroy of Yuenshlka! has drawn up a reform schame which has been submitted to the throne, and there met with approval. It provides, among other things, for the relief of the poor, the universal education of all the subjects, the conscription of Chinese young men for army service, the enlarging of the powers of the local authorities and the strengthening ofthe finances of the Pe- kln government by the gradual gathering in of funds from all the provinces. The officials of the province of Annul have held a great meeting, at which it was decided to construct a railway .throughout the whole territory under their control. SENTENCEJJN FUNSTON. Ex-Congressman Fined for Approv ing of Iola Explosion. IOLA, Kan., July 19. E. H. Funston, former Congressman from this district, and father of General Frederick Funston, was found guilty today in the police court of disturbing the peace and of having carried concealed weapons. He was fined $5 on each charge and the costs of the suit were charged against him, making a total of $31.55. The charges against Mr. Funston grew out of the wrecking with dynamite by a temperance fanatic on July 10 of three Iola "Joints," or saloons The explosions followed an agitation against the saloons, in which Governor Hoch was appealed to In an effort to secure the enforcement of the state prohibition law. Intense excite-, ment followed the act of the dynamiter, and for three days the city was crowded with people, who came from many points of the state to view the wreckage or Join in a hunt for the dynamiter. During the height of the excitement Mr. Funston. It was charged, had made inflammatory utterances to crowds that gathered about him on tho streets. When Patrolman Cannon tried to persuade Mr. Funston to desist, a quarrel between the two ensued, and Funston, It was alleged, attempted to draw a revolver. Funston was arrested and formal charge made against him. after which he was released upon his own recognizance. In the trial, which was attended by hundreds of persons, one witness testified that Mr. Funston had said: "I am glad that some one had nerve enough to do it. The only regret Is that the men (saloonkeepers) were not there to be blown out of their buildings. If the t police officers had done their duty, this wocld not have happened. I have no sor row In my heart for the men along this street that have suffered loss, because they have done business with these men and have not put a stop to the saloon business." Patrolman Cannon testified that Mr. Funston had threatened his life and had cursed him. "That's a He." Interrupted the defend ant. Mr. Funston testified In his own de fense. He admitted he had come to town armed .with a shotgun, and had purchased rhot on that day. He asserted that he wanted the shot to protect his property, located some distance out from Iola, against a threat that had been made to burn It. He denied having made In flammatory utterances. The loss caused by the explosion was estimated at $100,000. and the alleged dy namiter. C. L. Melvln. is still at large, although a warrant has been issued for his arrest and hundreds of men have searched for him. Judge Adair, in sentencing Mr. Funston. said: "It is with great regret that I have been called uoon to render Judgment in the matter. While this is not a matter of ttlmony. I -wish to state that I have known Mr. Funston ever -since I have been in Kansas; that I know klm to be an boaor&ble. uprlsht jlUen. and a tnu of exemplary " character and rentftatldn. I heartily sympathize with his feelings in regard to the Joint question. A man who regards his family and children would naturally resent anything which would tend to disgrace or injure them. I do not wish It understood that any Judgment I may render indicate? that 1 do not sym pathize with the sentiments and feelings of those who believe in the enforcement of the prohibitory law. I have dedded the matter, disregarding the standing of the defendant, public sentiment and everything except the law and the evi dence." Mr. Funston was not In court when the decision was rendered. Hi attorney im mediately filed, an appeal to the District Court. e a e e 9 4 a LIGHTNING HITS DYNAMITE "Explosion Blows Five Iowa Miners to Pieces and Wrecks Building. DES MOINES. Ia., July 15. Five miners were literally blown to pieces by the ex plosion of 25 pounds of dynamite In a storage power-house at the West River side coal mine, two miles from this city. The dead are Charles Brown, engineer; Duke, Miller, sinker; Harry Belknap, sinker; Dell Vance, sinker; George Ar rowwood, pump man. Brown. Vance and Arrowwood leave families. Heads, arms and limbs were scattered for a distance of 500 -feet. The explosion was not known until the day shift ap peared to go to work. The victims were engaged in sinking a new abaft, and during tho early morn ing hours a rain storm came up which compelled the men to stop work. They sought shelter in the powder-house. Light ning struck a tree near the building and ignited the dynamite as well as two kegs of powder. The building was blown Into fragments. Some of the bodies were so badly disfigured that identification Is im possible. The nearest house was S00 feet away and the inmates knew nothing of the accident, attributing the noise to the bolt of lightning. TAKES A ST. LOUIS BRIDE W. W.
