TIENTSIN, May 10.—Rumors of an- other attempt to restore the Manchu | monarchy by placing the captive boy | emperor, Hsuan Tung, on the throne are circulating in the inner circles of this center of oriental statecraft | Hints come from unknown sources that such a move is to be made within the next two months. / Speculation on this possibility pro- g vides one of the most fascinaling subjects of conversation among the Chinese, as well as among the for- eigners. Here is the stage and the throneless boy emperor a Star char- acter for the development of a plot that may yet focus the world's atien- tion. Anything is possible in Chinese politics, for upon Peking centers not only the jarring ambitions of Chinese militarists and politicians, but a large proportion of all the diplomacy of the orient. History of Boy Emperor. The story of Hs ung is like a tale of the Ara ghts. Though he is still a boy ¥ has twice been and twice has abdical was less than two vears old he wa made emperor by edict of the dying empress dowager in 1908. With his ¢ father, Prince Ching. as regent, the infant was nominal ruler over 400.- _ 000,000 people for a little more than three years. Then came the republic, with_a president, Yuan Shih-kai, and the boy. still an emperor, retired to captivity within the walls of the For- bidden city. Thers he remained for five ve: until in 1917, when he was vet only eleven years old, he was forcibly re- stored to his throne by a coup d'etat of Gen Chang Heun who, it has been charged, was the agent of a German plot to prevent the Chinese republic ffom taking a hostile attitude toward pose of the conspiracy is said to have been to stop the sending of Chinese coolies to Europe to relieve the French workers, so that they could be put on the fighting line. This time the boy emperor's reign was brief. It lasted less than a week, and again he went back to the palace of his forbears a prisoner, and there he has remained surrounded by 3,000 . Germany in the war. Another pur- ” MANEAD DYNASTY _ or 4.000 of the Manchu adherents. princes, eunuchs and whispering old women who long and probably plot for the time when the little “Son of Heaven” shall again ascend the dragon throne. Get Aliowance of Millions. To support him and his household of Manchus, titled and otherwise, the Chinese republic pays an annual al- lowance of from $3,000,000 to $4,000- 000 in silver, and thus within the heart of the capital city of the Chi- ness republic exists a strange group which may at any moment become . the prey of ambitious military lead- ers or the fulcrum by which they may raise themselves to power. The boy, still possessed oY Naturally, the Chinese classics are his chief study, but he also has . learned English and derives delight | trom his skill in penmanship. He is deferential to his tutors and strictly observes the rules of imperial con- | duct they have taught him. Hsuan Tung is carried in his yellow sedan chair by twenty attendants to } the Palace of Heaveniy Purity, where | his English tutor gives him lessons. He loves exercise, but he bas little chance to gratify his wish within the limits of the palace grounds. If he | goes to ride he;must straddle a pony fed at a slow Pace about the court- yard. Though he longs to see the distant parts of the world, he is not ! even alowed to go rowing on the lake | sbout the summer palace. To the youth of America. accustomed to its | freedom, his pesition would be in- | tolerable. Yet his disposition re- mains unspoiled. His Marriage Considered. Hsuan Tung has reached the age when the question of his mariage is looming up. When Yuan Shi-kai be- came first President of the Chinese republic it was reported that the boy emperor had become betrothed to the president’s daughter to promote a plan to restore a monarchical govern- | ment with Yyan as emperor. Not long ago it was reported he was en- gaged to marry the daughter of the present presidént, Hsu Shih-chang. It is said here the girl is being edu- cate@ in the United States. This would be in conformity with the Chi- nese fashion of arranging marriages between children. FOUR BROTHERS BURNED. ! Fire Cuts Off Only Escape From ! Room in Attic.
