Chinese Responsible for Out
rages Must Be Given Up.
(IRC! LAR NOTE TO THE POWERS
Berlin, Sept. 20.—Ths foreign office
has «eut a cicrular note to all the pow
ers uiiuouncing that the German gov
ernment considers that an indispensa
ble preliminary to the beginning of
peace negotiations with China is tho
delivering up of those who were respon
sible fur the outrages The text of the
telegraphic note, a. the North Germa.’j
Gazette gives it, is us follows:
“Die government of the emperor
holds as preliminary to ent ring upsi
diplomatic relations with the Cbiue-i
government that those persons mn»
be delivered up who have la-en p ov»i.
to be the original and real instigators
of the null ages agam-t international
law which have occurred at Pekin.
The number of those who were merely
instrumental in carrying out these out
rages is too great. Whob sale execu
tions would be contrary to the civilized
conscience and the circumstances of
such a group of leaders cannot be com
pletely ascertained, but a few whose
guilt is notorious should be delivered up
and punished. The representatives of
tbe {towers nt I'ekiu are in a positior
to give or bring forward convincing
evidence, us less importance attach««
to the number punished than their
characters as instruments or leaders.
The government believes it can count
on the unanimity of all the cabinets iu
regard to this )>oiut, inasmuch as in
difference to the idea of just atone
ment would be equivalent to iudiffer-
euce to a repetition of a crime. The
government pro|s>ses, therefore, that
the cabinets concerned should instruct
their representatives at Pekin to ind
cate those leading Chinese persouag
from whose guilt in instigating am
perpetrating outrages all doubt is pre
cluded.

The note has been sent to the Ger
man embassies at Washington, Lou

On
in
Philadelphia, Sept. 20.—The leadei
of the strike says that at the end of the
second day 118,000 of the 141,001
minevv<u kers iu tlm anthracite fields
are idle. No representative of the
mine operators makes a statement foi
their side of the matter, but individunl
mineowners dispute the strikers’ tig-
ures, saying there are more men ut
work than the union leaders will ad-
mit.
The first advance in the price ol
coal, as a result of the strike, wa»
made by the Philadelphia & Rending
Coal Company today, 25 tents per ton
being lidded.
This advance wa-
promptly met by the local dealers, who
increased the price to consumers 5U
cents ii ton.
A cloud appears on the otherwise
peaceful horizon in the shape of a re-
|sirt from liarTieburg that a bittm feel
ing is developing between the union
and tmutiniou men in the Lykens dis
trict, located in th« upper end of Dau
phin county, and involving about 2,500
mineworkers.
A concession was voluntarily grant-
ejl the 5,000 employes of the Lehigh
Coal ami Navigation Company iu th«
region west of Mauch Chunk, who
will hereafter work 10 hours a day for
a consequent increase in earuiugs.
These men were unorganized, hix I had
not presented any grievances.
True to its declaration made before
the strike was ordered, the Philadel
phia A: Reading Company today
brought its mules to the surface in the
two mines in Shamokin that had been
closed by the strike, au<l announced
that they will be permanently aban
doned. This action makes it uecessai)
for the miners who have been working
in these cullienes to seek work else
where.
The action of the 400 or 500 em
ployes of the West End Coal Company
at Mocanaqua, near Wilkesbarre, in
sticking to their work stands out
prominetitlv as the busy feature of an
otherwise idle territory.
They say
that they have uo grievances, have al
ways received good treatment from
their employers, and, therefore, resist
every effort to induce them to strike
Galveston, Texas., sept. 21.—Gov
ernor ~ayire tonight telegraphed the

" I tie situation iu all parts of tbe

should the weather continue fair, con
tinue to improve. The method of dis
tributing tbe contributions of the peo
ple has become systematic, and is re
duced to the lowest expenditure possi
ble, aud in this 1 have had the hearty
and voluntary assistance of the rail
road, telegraph and telephone com
panies, all of whom have promptly and
without charge, transmitted supplies
aud messages, beside« contributing to
the relief of the sufferers.
“The loss of life occasioned by the
storm in Galveston and elsewhere un
tbe southern coast cannot be less than
12,000 lives, w hile the loss of proper
ty will probably aggregate >20,000,-

fliction I have every confidence that
the stricken districts will tapidly re

present desolation and sorrow will arise
with renewed strength and vigor.
“To the people of the United States,
I, as governor, beg to tender my most
profound and most grateful acknowl
edgments, assuring them that their
generous benefactions will l»e held in

alone in our trouble, but messages ol

to relieve the situation of much of it*
saduess and misfortune.
“JOSEPH D. SAYERS.”
Several human bodies were found

tify them, and they were immediately
cremated.
Ata meeting of the general relief
committee today, no one was found
who would undertake the job of remov
ing the city’s debris on contract, as all
state it would be impossible to make a
definite statement. The nearest esti
mate exfiert wreckers will make is that
it will take 2,000 men 00 days to clear
away the debris, aud get all of the
the Isxlies out, and that it will cost
>50,000. The board adopted a resolu
tion stating that it was the opinion of
the board that the best way to solve
the problem of clearing away the de
bris was to let a contract to some one
to do this work. They recommended
to the general committee that this be
done.

London, Sept. 22.—Lord Roberts
cables from Nelspruitt, on the 1’re-
tona-Delagoa bay railioad, not lar
from Koniatipoort, the frontier station,
under date of Wednesday, September
I fl, as follows:
“Of the 8,000 Boers who retreated
from Koniatipoort before the British
advance from Machadodorp, 700 have
entered Portuguese territory: others
have deserted in various directions,
and the balance are rejstrfed to have
cressed the Konmti liver and to be oc
cupying spurs of the larmbobo moun
tains, south of the railway. A general
tumult seems to have occurred when
they recognized the hopelessness of
their cause. Their Long Toms and
field guns have been destroyed and
nothing is left of the Boer army but a
few marauding bands. Kelly-Kenny
is dealing with one of these, which oc*
cupies a position at Doorn berg.”
The war office has issued a long re
port from Lord Roberts on the subject
of the Johannesburg plot to overjsiwer
the garrison and murder the British
officers and the deportation of foreign
ers. After reiterating the known facts
of the plot, the British commander-in-
chief in South Africa says:
“The consuls of America, France
and Sweden, subjects of which nations
were arrested, met and fully discussed
the case with the British officials.
The interview was most satisfactory.
The consuls concurred entirely in the
British action ami premised every as
sistance.”
Lord Roberts adds that he forthwith
ordered the deportation of all foreigners
arrested in connection with the plot
for whose behavior their respective
consuls could not vouch. Otherwise,
very few foreigners were deported, ex
cept employes of the Neherlands rail
road, who refused to work for the Brit
ish and actively participated iu tho
war.

tion of time when 1 should have to take
to my bed. My wife asked if was 1
toing to die, and he said, ‘No, but the
chances are that he will lie on the flat
jf his back for 20 years.’ I thought 1
would fool him. Medicines prescribed
by the doctors and taken bv me did n<
paai. and my system was so drained,
my bliaid so impoverished aud 1 was
«» debilitated that at the time 1 started
ii take Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for
Pale People, if 1 fell down 1 could not
aissibly get up again unassisted. 1
could scarcely walk a block. Now 1
•an walk three or four miles without
fatigue and as you see, can lift my
leg and am altogeiher a different man
—aud all from eight or nine boxes of
Dr. Williams’ Pills.
About thret
vears ago I saw Dr. Williams’ f’ink
Bills advertised iu a San Fiaucisci
paper aud decided to try them, and
from what I have told you of my con
dition, you can imagine how weak and
pale 1 was.
“After trying Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills, I could see in a very short time
that I was picking up color and inv
health and general system was much
improved. I did not- change my diet,
uor »lid 1 take auy other medicine, and
I can assert that as a blood maker and
builder up of the system, they are in
valuable, as my increase in weight
from 145 to 185 pounds I can lay to
nothing else than Dr. Williams’ Pink
Fills.
“I have recommended them to hun
dreds whose blood was impoverished,
whose system was run down and who
needed building up, and shall continue
to do so, as I believe they are the best
medicine in the world for that pur
pose.”
