F THE Chinese merchants and others who testified yesterday at the in- quest upon the body of Colonel Tom Kim Yung, who suffocated himself with gas at the Chinese Consulate on September 14, are to be belleved, a se- rious reflection lies against the character ot Policeman John Kreamer. John J. Barrett represented the Chinese Consul General in the matter and pro- duced a horde of witnesses that swore that the policeman first insulted Colonel Tom and then felled him to the sidewalk with a blow in the face. The witnesses swore to the same story without varia- tion. They are Yee Shim, 737 Commercial | street; Chin Su Doon, Horn Yo Toy, Mok Pung, Foong Sun, Owyang King of the Chinese Consulate, Dong Gong and others who professed to have been eyewitnesses of the affair. Thelr testimony was to the effect that on the day preceding the sui- cide of Colonel Tom they had been in at- tendance at a meeting and banquet of the Chinese Merchants’ Club, and at its con- clusion they escorted the Colonel to the Consulate. When about ten yards from the door the Colonel bade them good-by. PR el Continued from page 1, column 3. D e e T Y AC BATTLES IN WHITE H[lllSET fo | He was met by Policeman Kreamer in full uniform, who took hold of him rudely and made an improper remark in pigeon English. The Colonel shook off the po- | liceman’s grasp with an angry gesture, whereupon Kreamer struck him a severe blow in the face, knocking him orone on the sidewalk. Then Kreamer, placing two fingers in his own mouth, whistled for another policeman, who was near by. The Chinese witnesses nearest the scene called upon Colonel Tom to get away | from the officer and escape into the Con- sulate, and he struggled desperately to go | s0, but could not break away from his | captors. Coroner Leland, in view of the serlous | aspect of the testimony against the, patrolman, continued the Inquest until| Friday at 10 a. m., In order to enable | Officer Kreamer to produce his witnesses. The question was asked of several of | the witnesses whether 1t was the custom in China for innocent men accused of crime to commit suicide. They replied | that it is the custom when a man of | noble character is falsely accused, whers | it is difficult for him to obtain justice or | a vindication, to commit suicide to prove | his innocence.

Elliott Prominent on Street Corners of South Minneapolis. MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 5, — Peter Olsen Elliott, also known as Peter Olsen, who was taken Into custody at the White House to-day, is a -well-known South Minneapolis character. Two weeks agd he told his friends he was ‘going to ‘Washington to occupy the White House.” They thought he was joking. He dis- appeared and nothing was heard of him till to-day, when it was made known that he had attempted to see the President. Elliott is of Danish birth and speaks the Bwedish language. His name was formerly Olsen, which he changed about a year ago, for personal reasons. He is a strong Soclalist, un anarchistic talker and frequented the street corners in his part of town. He is a machinist, Elllott was very reticent as to his for- mer history, and would not answer any questions about himself. He is said to have been a resident of this city more than four years. He had no relatives in this country so far as can be learned. e MOST ANCIENT SPECIMEN OF WOOD-CARVING ENOWN Is in the Museum of Gizeh at Cairo. Said to Date From B. C. The most ancient specimen of wood carving known to exist, a statuette—it is of sycamore—is in the museum of Gizeh, at Cairo. It dates from B. C. 3900, so is very nearly 6000 years old, and still the wood is as sound and good as if of re- cent date. It was found at Sakkarao, and is supposed to represent one of the overseers of the workmen engaged in building the pyramids which abound in the immediate nkighborhood and which compartively recent discoveres have proved to be the oldest of all the pyra- mids of Egypt. The statuette is known as the “Skelkd-el-Beled,” or “Sheikh of the Village,” a name given to it by the Arabs who found it, because its features represented very closely those of the man who was their own sheikh. In this spec- imen is seen & wonderful instance of how human nature, through the roll of thou- sands of years, keeps on repeating itself. The statuette is distinctly a portrait, showing a well-fed, closely-shaven man of 60 or thereabout, altogether nude save for a cloth bound by a leather girdle about his loins and reaching down to his knees. He stands erect and in the right hand grasps a staff, but the latter is not generally considered to be a part of the original. The exact height of the statu- ette is 3 feet 8% inches. A careful cast in plaster of paris of this wonderful old carving was made early in 1894 and may now be seen in one of the Egyptian gal- Jeries of the Britlsh Museum.—Scientific American, are expressed as to the appropriateness of sending him to such an important of- | fice, although his ability is not called into question. In view of the general belief, however, that the present combindtion constitutes | merely a stop-gap Ministry, there prob- | ably will be less inclination to seriously criticize the appointments, | PRESS FORESEES A CRASH. Only one opinion is expressed in the edl- torfals this morning on Balfour's letter, namely, that it is a manifestation of his dismay and disappointment at the loss of his most important colleague and his | sense of the damaging effect that the | Duke of Devonshire’s withdrawal will have on his admintstration. The Conservative organs admit that | there was nothing in the Duke's conduct to justify such an outburst, and they ex- press regret that the Premier should have been hastily betrayed into a de- parture from his customary urbanity. The Liberal papers believe that after the reve- lations of Balfour’s conduct toward Ritchle and Lord George Hamilton re- garding the concealment of £hamberlaih’s resignation, there is still hidden much of the history of the Duke of Devonshire's action, and they point out that, having sacrificed Chamberlain with the special object of securing the Duke, the Premier now finds himself deserted. The Conservative Standard voices the party regret that within six months a great party and a strong Government have gone to pleces, leaving only chaos, and it expresses surprise that Balfour has the idea of facing Parllament with his Cabinet so grievously weakened. ——————— Etiquette on the Links. Not only in the actual playing of golf, but in the etiquette of the game, the American players, or some of them, might well learn something from the vis- iting Englishmen. An observer of al the games, and a participant in the prac- tice rounds, states that there was a marked difference between the Americans and the Englishmen in_thelr bearing toward the caddies. The Americans, especially the college boys, were impa- Uent If the caddie did not at once find the ball after the drive. The English- men did not hurry or worry at al They almost invariably said “Thank you” when the caddie did a service for which he was being paid. They consulted with the caddie and usually accepted his judgment as of value, even if it was sometimes in error. And they did not run. One of the caddies was sent up the hill at Myopia to indicate the direction of the hole. He started to run up the hill with his heavy bag of clubs, after a sharp command from one of the college .boys. “Don’t run, my lad,"” called out the Englishman for whom he was doing th service, “we've got all the time that there {s."—Boston Transcript. — To Cure a Cold in One Day :.h Laxat: "B;oum qumm: Tablets, ~ All s g f EO Heart's ifnatore'ss o cadh ox. S0, | @ ielririmiiniminieinieieldeieleininieieieiel @ JAPAN YIELDS A POINT. No treaty however, has yet been signed | nd it is unlikely that the negotiations will be concluded by October 8, the date on which Russia was to evacuate Man- churia. Russia’'s failure to evacuate Manchuria on that day, however, will not | precipitate & diplomatic crisis, as Japan, rather than break off the negotiations covering broadly all the issues between herself and Russia, is willing to strain a point regarding Manchuria in the hope of | arriving at a satisfactory settlement. In | all of this the British Government ac-/| quiesces. Such features of immediate danger as the Far Eastern situation at present ap- pear to be confined solely to the popular agitation in Japan against Russia after October 8. This, however, is being taken into consideration by the Japanese Gov- ernment, whose diplomats bhave warned Russia that while the Japanese Govern- ment will not allow its hand to be forced | to the extent of entering into hostilities over the Manchurian evacuation question, ! it cannot indefinitely prolong the present negotiations at Tokio in face of the ex- pected popular clamor. WOULD FIGHT FOR KOREA. The Japanese embassy in London has | given out the following statement of the prevailing conditions: “We are forced to belleve that it ls‘ physically impossible for Russia to fulfill | her promise to evacuate Manchuria by | October 8 but we do not anticipate a ! crisis on that account. It would be a| case of making the lesser include the greater were we to break the negotiations | now in progress at Tokio because of Rus- sia’s failure to keep her promise on the | exact date. So far as known here no navgl or military preparations have been undertaken by Japan to meet any expect- ed emergency. We have hopes that a finaj | settlement may be reached between Rus- sia and ourselves that will settle once for | all our outstanding disputes. | “In Japan's viewpoint the commercial | point of the whole situation is Korea. Russia knows that we will fight to the | death rather than let any forelgn power | occupy Korea. Russia’s timber conces- | sions there and the other recent initiative she has exhibited in Korea render the present negotiations extremely difficult, but the horizon shows no cloud so dark | as to threaten war. Great Britain, as our | ally, is naturally cognizant of the trend | of our present negotlations, all of which look toward peace. We have no reason to believe that Russia’s activity in se- curing dockyards for her Far Eastern fleet is actuated by an intention to pre- pare for hostilities any more than our. own necessary provisions for the best equipment for the convenience of our| army and navy.” ~ SENDS " BITTER LETTER T0 DUKE e AT Continued from page 1, column 6. no judgment could be formed until a dec- | laration had been actually made. STILL A FREE TRADER. “I was prepared by our discussions for! your statement that you desired to ob-| tain the sanctlon of the constituencies for a reversal of the doctrine that taxa- | tion should never be imposed except for | purposes of revenue, and this is no doubt | the principal and most definite, statement in your speech. But you may remember | that I told you that I thought it would | be very difficult to make this statement the foundation of a great announcement | of polley, inasmuch as I was not aware of any law or constitutiomal prineiple in | which this doctrine was embodied. I ad- mit that you have been understood as making this declaration the basis of a great political announcement, but in my opinfon that announcement has been ex- tended very far beyond the necessitles of the case. “It was unnecessary, in my opinion, for the purpose of the statement to which I had assented to assert that the contro-| versy of 1846, which you described as the great lawsuit between tariff and free trade, is of no interest whatever to us except from an historical point of view. Nor can I think that it was necessary to assert that you desire to reverse or alter fundamentally the fiscal tradition that has prevailed during the last two genera- tions. I had hoped to find in your speech a different statement of adherence to the principle of free trade as the o basis of our fiscal and commercial system and an equally definite repudiation of the principle of protection in the interest of our national industries. But in their ab- gence I cannot help thifiking that such declarations as those which I have quoted | cannot fail to have the effect of mate- | rially encouraging the advocates of direct | protection in the controversy which shall be raised throughout the country and dis- couraging those who, like me, and, I hoped, yourself, believe that our present system of free imports, and especially of | of his Majesty. | food imports, is on the whole most ad- vantageous to the country, although we do not contend that the prineiple on| which it rests has any such sanctity as| WOULD AVOID CONTROVERSY. | “I have only ventured to make these | criticlsms as an {llustration of different | points of view and I am very far from wishing to enter into any personal con- | troversy with you. “You have in your second speech said that this subject could no longer be left an open question among the members of the Government, and I think I have sald enough to prove that no such agreement on the general question exists as to make | it possible for me to be a satisfactory | exponent of your views or those of the Government In the debates which must inevitably take place in the next session | of Parliament. “I cannot adequately express the deep | regret which I feel in separating myself | from a Government with which I believe | myself to be in sympathy on all other | matters of public policy, or the anxiety | with which I anticipate the wide division | which I fear must result from the unex- | pected scope and strength of your declar- ations of yesterday, in the ranks of the Unionist party; but, holding the opinions which I have endeavored to exvress, no | other course is open to me but to ask | you to place my resignation in the hands | “I am yours sincerely, DEVONSHIRE.” | ———e————— The Weight of the Children. With regard to the standard of weight| for growing children, that usually given | by authorities in the matter is that at 5 | years of age a child should weigh about as many pounds as it is inches high., As a rule this will not be much over or under forty pounds. Children who come of large families should weigh something more than that. The rate of increase should be | about two pounds for every inch of | growth, with a tendency for the weight to | exceed this standard proportionately | rather than to fall below it. When a child | is rather heavier in proportion to its | height than this standard it is a sign of good health. If the child is growing rap- | WOMEN PULLING | to forbid any departure from it for suffi- | POLITIGAL WIRES Take Hand in Selection of Great Britain's Embassador. LONDON, Oct. 5.—While the Govern- ment is endeavoring to maintain its res- olution not to consider the question of a successor to Sir Michael Herbert at the Washington embassy at present, there ls reason to believe that much wire- pulling is going on, and that several women prominent on both sides of the Atlantic are becoming interested. It is known that after the death of Lord Pauncefote the gppointment of Sir Michael Herbert was opposed by several well-known New York persons, and a prominent English woman, who was sup- posed to have the ear of the King, was enlisted on their side, and that it was with great difficulty that the King's con- sent was obtained to Sir Michael's ap- pointment. The British Minister at The Hague is reported to be the King's choice for the post of Embassador to Washington. The King alone will make the selection, and it is unlikely that the Premier or the Foreign Office will be requested to name the Embassador. The likeliest selection from the service is said to be Sir Arthur Nicholson, Brit- ish Minister to Morocco, who is regard- ed as being in line for an embassy. Either of these appointments would please the service generally. It is well understood, however, that the King may go outside the regular service, as he did in sending Sir Francis Bertle, then Assistant Secretary of Foreign Af- | pany of some uncalled for goods the letter | “I'” had dropped from the word “lawful” idly, it should not be allowed to fall much | fairs, as Embassador to Rome, an ap- below it without being made to rest more | pointment that annoyed several Ministers. than has been the custom before.
