PRINCE C lis Situation Made Mor6 (Com plicated by Sudden Eise of Father of Aspirant to Throne of China Fi nances Totter. (United Freas Leaned Wire.) v Pekln. Nov. 17. Prince Ching, presi dent of $he board of foreign affairs and head of the army, has risen suddenly to be the most prominent figure In China. Even Prince Chun, the regent, has asked the support of Prince Chlng, who Is now guarding the Imperial pal ace with several hundred selected men. The situation it particularly tense, since Prince Chlng is the father of Prince Taa'i Fu. who is one of the claimants to the throne and who is on his way to the United States as envoy extraordi nary to express thanks for the remis sion of the Boxer indemnity. Among the many eventualities which are conjectured Is that Chlng might fain control of the government and put sat Fu upon the throne yet. The financial Situation is extremely grave. Over 20 exchanges in Pekln have Been affected by the double death in the roya family. Native brinks are hav ing great difficulties and many are in danger or suspension. Kumors that the empress committed suicide have gained widespread public ity in the last 24 hours, but no official statement as to the cause of her death or the direct cause of the demise of the emperor has been Issued. That the new government fears an attack by the revolutionists Is denied, but the regent is usLng every effort to bring formidable support to his ad ministration, and the most urgent tac tics aTe being employed. Toklo, Nov. 17. Advices received here from Pekln i say that the palace gates are guarded and that entrance is refused to all persons except after the most rigid examination. The rumor that the empress com mitted siriride after fasting for nearly a week Is becoming stronger. The Chinese revolutionary students in this city are holding meetings and are being watched closely by the police. Toklo stocks are still down, after the slump of yesterday.

TfllCAIIALS ALONG AILANMLi UUAbl Deep Waterways Men Meet at Baltimore on Im portant Project. (Special Dispatch to Tha Journal, k Baltimore, Md., Nov. 17. The Atlan tic Deep Waterways association, which waa formed for the purpose of arousing public Interest in the plan of construct ing deep inland waterways all the way from Boston to Key West, opened a three days' session here today. The at tendance Is unusually large and every state along; the Atlantic coast Is rep resented, as well as the gulf etates and several other states not contiguous to the sea or any part of it. The principal matter before the meet ing is the discussion of the plan sug gested In a resolution adopted by a meeting of the delegates from the At lantic seaboard ' states, held in Phila delphia some time ago. The plan rec ommended by the Philadelphia confer ence contemplates the opening of ship canals and deepening of intervening rivers and anDroaches from Norfolk. Va.. southward to Key West. Fla., from I Chesapeake bay to Delaware bay, and from the Delaware river to' the Rarltan ' river, and aoross Cape Cod, along the I lines approved by congress aa the most I practical. It Is proposed that the work i shall be undertaken by the federal gov- eminent and that all the canals" and waterways shall be free. Many proml nent men are among the delegates and the list of speakers includes uongress man J. Hampton Moore, president of the association; Governor Crothera of Mary land, Mayor Mahool of Baltimore and many others. SECURE CHANGE III ACT HIS Senator Charles W. Fulton has prom ised members of the Oregon & Wash ington Lumber Manufacturers' associa tion that he will take hia proposed amendment to the Interstate commerce act before the coming session of con gress with hones of having it adopted. The amendment was Introduced at the last session of congress and referred to the committee on interstate commerce and there it rests. The proposed amendment Is to the effect thai in future if a railroad de sires to alter Its tariffs on a commod ity It must before making the change submit the matter to the Interstate commerce commission for approval. As the matter now stands the railroads make the desired change and leave it to the publio to come before the Inter state commerce commission with their complaints after the new rates have already been established. In other words, it is contended, that the remedy is not available -until after the injury has been inflicted. g. Senator Fulton started for Washing ton Sunday and he promised then that he would leave no stone unturned again to bring the matter before congress.
