A BOXER REVOLT.

It is among the wonders of the modern world that all nations feel the harm to one. Formerly, before commercial connections had' joined many countries in a common interest, revolution, riots, changes of dynasty and over throw of government in one country made no impression upon any other Now all this has changed, and such disturbances concern those

most distant from their sceno.

This is especially true of China. When the Boxer revolution of two years ago was over- come, and the Western nations succeeded in withdrawing their military occupation without the partition of that troubled empire, there was A FEELING OF RELIEF in the conviction that a war between themselves bad been averted by abacation from territorial acquisition. Russia bus lingered in Manchuria,

Having practically adjusted the question THE Steamship

connected with the surrender to the Chinese of the control of the city of Tientsin, this

Government, the S. F. Chronicle states, has been asked to interest itself in the settlement of the grave difficulties growing out of the insistence of some of the powers upon payment of their share of the war indemaity in gold instead of silver. The Chinese Government is greatly disturbed over this. Minister Wo came early to the State Department to-day and had a long interview with Secretary Hay, in the course of which he persented a cablegram from the two leading members of the Chinese Court, who are primarily in charge of the

manent occupancy.

The situation, however, is disturbed by A REAPPEARANCE OF BOXER INFLUENCÉ among the Chinese and symptoms of another revolt against the Imperial Government. If the powerful Prince Fuan join forces with the revolutionists the peril to Western interests will probably compel the return of the Occi- dental armies to China, and then the partition of that empire will no daubt follow. The immense and unjust indemnity forced out of her by the powers cannot be increased by another money obligation, for her resources will not support it. This will make partition, with all its perils, imperative.

If another revolution follow the symptoms which are now apparent it will likely be found that Russia has inspired it, in view of final partition of the country. As she is already in Manchurin, her position will enable her to hold on to that best part of the empire and make it permanent Russian territory. Her dominion will then be continuous from the Neva to the Amur, and the Amur to the Yellow Sea..

ANOTHER REVOLUTION IN CHINA, · involving such consequences, may well be lamented by the people of the Western nations

It will distract their Gövemments from the policies which make for material betterment. Whatever benefit may finally come to the world-from-Western-occupation-of-China-will- be so far in the future that the present genera- tion will get none of it.a=S. F. Call,

first time the fact that it is now a difference of method rather than disposition that divides the powers, and that all seem ready to do what they can to make it possible for China to carry out her heavy obligations.

The cablegram, which is from Viceroys Liu Kun Yi and Chang Tung, is as follows-

"According to reports of conferences held by the foreign Ministers at Peking on the indemnity question, the United States is will ing to accept silver, Great Britain is willing to accept silver in accordance with the plan of amortization up to 1910 and Russia and France propose the collection of import duties in gold.

It is also known that Japan has not taken any decided position. The revenues of China amount annually to 80,000,000 taels, 50,000,000 thels of which is set aside for the payment of the annual debt. How can the remaining 32,000,000 tuels he made to satisfy the admini strative requirements of twenty-two provinces ? "Attempts to mise revenues from new sources on the part of the provincial au thorities have in many cases created local disturbances

In case heavier taxes be im

posed an uprising of the people will be the

natural result. Since the various payment admit of no delay on the dates on which they severally fall due, money has to be taken from other funds in order to meet the pressing demand. If has already preared to be be yond China's ability to make the payments even in silver in accordance with the treaty. The foreign powers know full well the finan cial resources of China.- When the indemnity question first came up for discussion the total amount was repeatedly reduced. Now the will- ingness on the part of the United States, Great Britain, Russia and France either to accept the silver or to pay duties in gold, in spite of the divergence of views that all appreciate the fact that to make payments in gold is a burden too heavy for China to bear. Irasmuch as the foreign powers have shown such consideration for China, we feel it incumbent upon us to make renewed representations on the subject to the end that an arrangement which shall be both reasonable and feasible may be found."

VENICE TOTTERING.

THE MOST COSTLY STEAMER.

The sum of 1,235,000 (says the Daily Com- mercial News), for which the directors of the North German Lloyd are arranging policies of insurance on their new steamer the Kaiser Wilhelm 11, when she is ready for sea, not only indicates that she will be the most valuable merchant steamer afloat, but it affords a good measure of the rapidity with which the value of the largest merchant steamers has increased in recent years, Half-a-century ago, in 1857, e Liverpool paper recorded with admiration the estimate that the whole fleet of the Cunard line as it was might be valued at £936,767, and in those days that fleet consisted of nine steamers, the finest of their kind then in existence, which performed the Atlantic mail service, and six smaller boats which performed the subsidiary service. Fifty years Inter the estimated value of the most costly steamer in the world exceeds by £300,000 the whole value puit upon the fifteen, vessels of what was then regarded as about the finest fleet of mer- chant steamers in the world. The most rapid increase in the value of merchant steamers took place since 1881, the year in which the contest in tonnage and in ocean speed began between the Atlantic liners by the building of the Servia and the City of Rome. These two steamers were regarded as, marvels of costi! neay though they were certainly not worth more than £150,000 when they left the hands of their builders. But that figure was soon left bebind, and now, if shipowners wish to win the blue ribbon of the Atlantic back from the Gerscription for this purpose with a vote of 500,000 man, they must be prepared to spend a million fire. It is estimated that the recent collapse caused damaged to the amount of four million more than the most costly steamer adont was

lire (about $800,000), worth twenty years ngo. That will always help to make the competitors for the somewhat bar

ren honour of being' for a short time the owners of the swiftest steamers in the world a very select number.

Prof Wagner, the city architect, is of the opinion that practically the whole of Venice is He says that the doomed to destruction. subsoil has deteriorated and the piles and pillars are rotten and unable to stand the pressure on them. Shrinkages and sinking have been observed in the subsoil for many years, although an official commission lately declared that there was no danger from these causes. Prof. Wagner advocates the restora- tion of the loggia of Sansovino, but not the tower. He says that if the tower is rebuilt it should be in modern style."

The municipal council, however, has decided to rebuild the Campanile of St. Mark's, and the Sansovino Loggia. It has opened the sub-

historic interest than the Campanille of St In all Venice there was no object of more

Mark's. It stood 98.metres (322 feet) in height. It was founded in 888, and restored in 1320. In 1417 a marble top was put on the old tower, and in 1517 it was crowned with the figure of an angel nearly sixteen feet in height.

UNDER FALSE COLOURS.

The English retailer is chary in his offerings, says a U. S. Joumal, and many lines of goods are now sold without comment which one or two years ago were advertised as of “American make” or “American style." The Diamond Match Company parades its goods under the old English name of Bryant & May; the American tobacco trust calls itself the English Tobacco Company, and advertises its goods as made in England by British work- men the proprietary medicines which were first introduced as American discoveries now blot from their adver'isements anything that might identify them as importations from the Ugited States. With every internal ailment, from the apparent effects of the South African war to the idleness of labor in certain localities, altributed to American competition, the - vailing prejudice can be understood.

THE TOWER

was always open, but no one was permitted to enter alone. A lone traveler, however, was permitted to engage a bystander to enter the lower with him. The ascent was made up a winding inclined plane that had thirty-eight bends in it. At the top was stationed a fire watchman, who always carried a telescope. The view from the tower, top embraced the whole city, the lagoon, the Alps, and art of the Adriatic

From the tower, in the great, days of the Venetian republic, the first glimpse of home- coming war vessels, was seen and signaled. In 1318 there hung, halfway up the tower, a wooden cage in which prisoners were kept until they starved to death. In the olden days there were four bells sounded for different pur pasea La marangola was sounded at dawn call the laboring classes; la sestatmezzana opened the official bureaus; la trotterar called the councils to duty, and the bell del malefizio tolled out the requiem for those who were to be put to death. A fifth bell liter was brought pre-from Candia, and was tolled only on Ascension
