REBELS HOLDING HANKOW
rvnt!nud from First fssej
from the Interior. There is only on
American family at Tal Yuan-fu. which
Is In the h-iads of the revolutionaries,
but ther are many throughout th
province of Shan-Si.
The native press hns received the
reform edicts favorably. Th Chinese,
remembering how frequently the prom
ise contained In former edict were
fo-gottcn. may not be satisfied, how
ever. The reformers In 1'ekln are di
vided Into two parties th extremists,
mainly southerners, who Insist upon
the expulsion of th Manclrtis, and th
moderates, who are numerous through
cm the empire. The latter ara In
different whether the dynasty Is
Van.-hu or Chinese, hut they want
great a.lmlnletratlv changes, and be
lieve that drastic measures are neces
sarj to give t!i reform a fair start.
( on promise Is Possible.
The vital .juestlon Is whether the two
tvlntts will be able to unite. Th In
herent tendency of the Chinese Is
towurd compromise, but unexpected
circumstance frequently carry th day
In China. At Canton th Viceroy and
leading gentry ar classed as moder
ates, while th masses are extremists.
Th sam condition prevails In th
provinces of Hu-nan. llu-peh. llonin,
SlansU Klangsl and Fre-chuen. Man
churia and Chl-U remain loyal. Shan
t-ing. Ktangsu. Anhwei, Chue-klang.
Fu-klen. Kwel-chow and Yunnan ar
apparently half-hearted. Eiwhr
the rebellion Is spreading.
An Important question for th north
Is whather General Chang, leader of
th Lan-chau soldiers. Is acting Inde
pendently or In collusion with other
rebels, if th edicts satisfy th north
ern soldiers, th control of North China
will not be seriously Imperiled, but
concerted action on the part of General
Chsnc and tf.e southerners would
probably result In t!.s flight of th
court to JehoL
It Is reported that th garrtooes at
Tsl-nsn-fu. Chan-chunir. Pao Talng-fu
and Teh Chow hav declared In favor
of th revolutionists and that Kal
Keng is expected to revolt shortly. A
rovu.t at Pao Tlng-fu would be of
great Importance and It would result In
cutting Yin Tchang's communications
completely.
Genera! Yin Tchang has sent bark
home all th Ilonan troops suspected of
disloyalty. ills army at Sin Yang
Clau Is deplorably provisioned, one di
vision having been without food for
two days.
It Is satd In some quarters that Tuan
Fhl Kal has been appointed Premier.
It Is added that th government In
tends to accd to very demand by
tie Lao Cnau soldiers and other dis
affected troops, and that It Is expected
t:.t tt.e ministry will resign tomorrow.
KEBEXS OVTTJXE ' POLICIES
Molesting- Foreigners Among Of
fering Punishable by Death.
SAX FRANCISCO. Oct. II. Transi
tions of Chines papers received her
en th Itner Mongolia tell of th Is
suance of revolutionary proclamations
at Hankow. Th paper Is dated Oc
tober I J. and says that thre offense
which would permit capital punish
ment were provided by th terms of
th proclamation. These were aiding
the government or betraying revo
lutionaries, molesting foreigners and
attacking th property of "commercial
houses." The psper adds that on the
date of publication revolutionary em
issaries were being sent to every part
of the empire.
Trsrslations of thre proclamations
Issued by th revolutionary govern
ment, one to th Imperial soldiers, on
to th Chinese as a peopl and th
third to th power, also were received
by th Mongolia. The declaration to
th powers Is an appeal "In the name
of humanity and of the peac of th
world." and continue with the assur
ance that th revolutionary govern
ment. If successful, binds Itself to re-spe-t
all obligations of the Chinese
government entered Into prior to the
Issuance of th proclamation. Agree
ments with th Manchus of later date
would b repudiated. It wss stated,
with th warning that "if the powers
assist th Manchu government against
th peopl. th latter will be forced
to regard them as enemies."
Th proclamation to the people de
scribed th form of the new govern
ment, outlining the thre periods of
change to follow "victory over the
Manchus" Th first or military period.
It Is said, will se th new government
"transform China from top to bottom,
suppress all unjust laws and taxes,
sweep away all unnecessary forms and
ceremonies, abolish th tortur clum
ber and obtain th liberation of slaves
or serfs; construct new roads and or
ganise the sanitary service." Th sec
ond period, s'yled that of contract be
tween th military and th peopH, wtll
be of two years' duration and provide
for th potting In fore of th consti
tution. The third, or constitutional period. Is
designed as th dawn of th China of
th future as the "middle republic"
when military rule will be dissolved.
The first class, embracing elvP or mil
itary rhlefs who roluntarity sided with
revolutionists, are promised double the
pay they received from th govern
ment for their lifetime. The second
class, those who surrendered without
fighting when the rival forces met. are
assured of life and protection of their
property. The third class, those who
fought and later surrendered, ar
promised their lives, but to be detained
as prisoners, while the fourth class,
those who refused to give up. are
promised death "without mercy."
Thl proclamation evidently was con
sidered most dangerous, as It Is said
that a house-to-house search for copies
was Instituted In Hankow, and every
paper found was destroyed. All thre
of th proclamations descrlh th Man
churlans a a barbarian race, which
Invaded China 260 years ago and
brought npon the chines all th mis
eries they have suffered.
POWER, OVER LIFE IS ISSrE
Urgent Must Relinquish Pm-oRa-tlrr.
Yuan Shl Kal Demands.
WASHINGTON. Oct. J 1 Tuan Sal
Kal. th dominating force In Chins,
mill return to Prkln In answer to th
Imperial summons only when th
IT I nee Regent voluntarily relinquishes
the power h now holds of condemn
ing any Chinese subject to Instant ex
ecution without trial.
That Is the prevalent bellsf among
Washington officials, some of whom
express confidence that the throne will
yield to th demands of th National
Assembly and relinquish this power.
Otherwise It might be unsafe for Yuan
Sal Kal or any other Chinese notable
to place himself within th power of
th throne.-
Th Chinese army la far from satis
fled with th extent of th conces
sions mad by th thron yesterday.
The dissatisfaction has spread among
the troops, so that In addition to those
In the Immediate neighborhood of
Pekln, who' forced the crisis by back
ing up th demands of th National
Assembly, large bodes of soldiers In
other provinces hav given adherence
to the 12 demands of the tropps at
Lnan-chow. These troops number no
less than 15.000 In Cheng-tuug province
and 4004 In Poa-tlng.
According to Stat Department ad
vices, demands on the throne made In
the ultimatum of the National As
sembly have not been granted. Among
them are the following:
An Immediate parliament; that con
stitutional amendments originate In
parliament; that the army, though sub
ject to the control of the Emperor, be
not used In domestic troubles except
under regulations of parliament; that
parliament elect a premier, Ije to ap
point ministers of state: that the par
liament approve the budget and all
treaties affecting the general Interest
of the country; that the qualification
of elector for members of parliament
be defined, and that the army be con
sulted In regard to these matters.
Another source of difficulty In the
execution of the reform programme
has been found In the ominous attitude
of the great Manchu province. They
are Indignant at their deprivation of
all control of the government, and now
are threatening the peace of Pekln.
