There will be no revolution against the monarchy and the efforts of the southern revolt leaders will ibe crush ed shortly. So declares Professor H. C. Adams, adviser to the Yuan government, who Is In San Francisco, en route to the east. Prof. Adams has just completed an audit of the government's railroad financial records and 1b close to the Chinese throne. AH China wants, he said today, when the Shinyo Maru docked, la a stable government. Whether It be republic or monarchy Is a matter of Indifference to the av erage Chinese subject, he declared. J. A. Thomas and J. S. Havey, rep resentatives of large wholesale busi ness houses, also passengers on the Shinyo from China, confirmed Prof. Adams' statements. Both scouted the idea that Japan was behind the revolutionary movements. AND PROSPERITY -t .t l 4 f ;f B LOCAL j llMskotbtUl Tonight Christiana vs. Methodists, at rink. Ten cents.

President Wilson Is committed to establishment of a tariff commission to Investigate industrial conditions with a view to submitting' to congress recommenda tions for schedules suited to all de mands, the White House announced today. Realising that after the war cer tain economic changes will arise which can not now bo anticipated, the president feelleves that a board of re sponsible business men. similar to the federal reserve board, should be named to Investigate the trade of the country. It Is not his purpose, how ever, to divest congress of any of its present powers, for congress would receive and act on tho commission report. The announcement represents a chango from the president's position a year ago, when he announced that he wished to give the present tariff an opportunity to work Itself out be fore changes were made. From time to time since then ho has wild that owing to unnatural commercial conditions arising from the war the present tariff bus not had an oppor tunity to show Its strength or weak ness. Moreover, In answer to republican advocacy of a permanent tariff com mission, be has Indicated that the administration had, In the federal trade commission, tho machinery wherewith to conduct any required tariff Investigation. ' The tariff commission President Wilson desires will be non-partlaan. Recently representative men of all parties and from all parts of the country urged him to appoint such a commission In order that the coun try may be prepared to meet and profit from tho economic upheaval after the war. U YSER CAPTURED Paris, Jan. 25. German troops penetrated French trenches In a now offensive near the mouth of the Yser river on the west front, It was offi cially admitted today. They were later driven out, however. This followed a bombardment In which over 20,000 shells screamed against tho French lines. Artillery fire at first held the Oermansn their trenches, but after a time they emerged, and through a charge gain ed a foothold In tho French trenches. The French, however, drove them out with grenades, after Inflicting sharp losses. The Germans also occupied two shell craters in the angles of Arras- Lens and Neuvllle St. Vaast-Tbelus roads, It was admitted, but were sub sequently repellod. Fighting continues on this front.
