Porter, U.S. Marshal, when the vessel "docked at Shanghai last week as the result of telegraphic ustructions received from the Se- eretary of State.
Kenneth, whose name was given on the President McKinley's pas senger list as "Ing Sang," was adopted by the Ings four years ago in New York, his mother being an American woman and his father an American born Chinese. He was being taken by his father by adop tion to Canton when Mr. Porter took custody of him."

"Restriction of gutput can only result in increased unemployment.
It is, therefore, to increased world consumption that industry must look, and this is not encour- aged by forcing populations, behind high tariff walls, to buy relatively expensive goods,"
