SHAKEN BY FBAB.
The Young 1 Emperor of China in Fear
of Assassination.
From the Fete York Herald.
Shanghai, April 6. —The young Em
peror Kvacg Hsu, and the dowager Em
press, Yxe An, are much annoyed at the
notice which foreigners in China are taking
of their domestic bickerings. A Chinese
newspaper would not dare to hint at such
matters, but many Chinamen cat read
English and find much entertainment
in the foreign newspapers at present.
The foreign press was officially assured
that the emperor and his mother were the
best of friends, but this assurance carried
little weight. For tho present the empress
has little authority, and the railway boards,
her old enemies, have come to the front. In
theemperor,how ever, is vested the only valid
power in tho state. He is supposed to wield
despotic power, tut is really a “strong man
in chains.’’ The reactionary party guides
him at present, but many people think that
he will soon shake off all control.
One of the emperor’s leading advisers is
Ving, a head eunuch and a creature of Ung
Yung Ho. Ving hates the empress dow
ager and has done his best to make the
emperor hato her. To him and Ung, a dog
matic old tutor, rather than to the emperor,
are to be ascribed the recent vigorous
decrees from the throne and the edicts in
the Pekin Gazette against the empress
dowager.
Viceroy Chang Chih-tung has fallen into
disfavor owing to his pr posal to revolu
tionize the empire by means of railways.
He has been censured for financial irregu
larities extending over eight or nine years,
and has l>een ordered to explain matters at
Pekin. The empress dowager is also blamed
for permitting him to control a satrapy for
so many years. Chang maintains that the
only reason why he did not prepare an
itemized account of his expenditures was
because lie did not wish to put temptation
in the way of the minor revenue clerks.
LI HUNG CHANG’S POLICY.
"Divide et Impera” is the policy of the
Chinese cabinet. In this way viceroys and
foreign envoys are played off against each
other. It is High Hung Chang to-day
against Chang Chih-tuug, and to-morrow
it is the viceroy of Wanking against the
viceroy of Chiu. To this policy is due the
very existence of the present dynasty.
A dozen recent decrees announce the
necessity of increasing the naval and mili
tary forces of the empire. Li Hung Chang’s
army and navy are very efficient and make
him an object of envy to tho other satraps.
His forces will have to resist any invasion
from the north by the Russians, who aro as
much dreaded in China as iu certain parts
of Europe. The boards of war and the ad
miralty are doing their best to get their
forces ready, and have just sent an order to
Germany for 300,000 rifles, which are to be
distributed among the Manchu troops.
Military instructors are also to bo engaged
to teach the coolie troops. These instructors
will be Germans, and within the last year
or so the English words of command have
been superseded by those of the fatherland.
China favors Germany simply because she
fears France and Russia.
THE YOUNG EMPEROR’S FEARS.
The emperor is in constant dread of assas
sination. Poison, he fears, lurks in every
cup, and every hand, ho imagines, is armed
with a dagger. Every article of food is
tasted by ac< mrtier before be touches it. It
was rumored a few weeks ago ttiat the em
peror was dead, and much excitement pre
vailed. Tho foreign consuls mado inquiries,
but got no information. After a week,
however, the decrees from the throne began
to reappear, and tho vermilion mark on
them showed that the emperor was alive.
There was, nevertheless, some ground for
the rumor. A cup of white rose tea, pro
vided for the emperor, was tasted by a
favorite courtier, the son of a Manchu mili
tary officer, aud a few hours afterward the
boy died in dreadful agony and with all the
symptoms of poisoning. The emperor’s
terror was increased a hundredfold by this
incident, and he fell sick probably from
sheer fright.
For decency’s sake a formal truce has been
patched up between the emperor and the
dowager, and it is announced that he will
visit her in her palace as often as possible.
This palace stands on the site of the old
French cathedral, which was pulled down
about three years ago.
Tho recent death in England of J. G.
Dunne was much regretted here. It was ho
who negotiated tho treaty between the
Popes of Pekin and Rome with suoh con
summate diplomacy. An Irishman by
birth, he was educated for the priesthood.
Missing his vocation he became a distin
guished orientalist and diplomatist.
Money is sorely needed here, and the im
perial treasury is trying to raise a loan for
household expenses. It raised a similar
loan last year, and has Dot yet repaid it.
The household officers decline to give proper
security, and for that reason the mandarin
millionaires have no faith in the paternal
government. The remittances from the
provincial treasuries to Pekin have recently
been small, and, though China has at pres
ent no national debt, it is likely that she
win soon come forward as a large borrower.
A large sum of money is spent annually on
defeases and in the payment of salaries to
the high officials of Corea, Thibet and Mon
golia.
Corea causes at present much uneasiness
in Pekin. Knowing that China’s suzerainty
over this so-called tributary kingdom has
hitherto been merely nominal, the Pekin
government is now trying hard to muke it
real. Russia is the bugbear, and it was re
cently proposed to build a wall across tho
northern part of the peninsular, which
cut off the country from Russian territory,
and destroy tho hopes of the pro-Russian
aud anti-Chinese party. This proposition,
however, found little favor a3 it was soon
seen that tho Muscovite soldiers with their
parks of artillery would not And the bar
rier so insurmountable as the Mongols
found the Great wall twenty odd centuries
ago.
Some of the emperor’s advisers are in
favor of coming to an understanding with
Corea, as they know that they cannot hold
that country as soon as the Trans-Siberian
railway is completed. They would willingly
hand over to Russia a portion of Corea
north of Port Laseroff as an outlet for the
railway, if a satisfactory assurance were
given that there would be no further en
croachment. Such a plan would, of course,
be strongly opposed by the more patriotic
Chinese officials.
royalty well hedged in.
The recent celebration of the emperor’s
accession to the throne caused some trouble
in the capital, the repre
sentatives’ persistent requests for private
audiences. The foreign ministers have ad
dressed a joint noto to the Tsung-ii Yamen,
which acts as a buffer between the respon
sible government and any outside pressure,
urging that they be allowed to present
their congratulations in person to the
emperor. This is the most perplexing pro
blem that crops up in Pekin, and the diffi
culty of giving a plausible excuse on eaoh
occasion taxes the resources of the Ce
lestial diplomats. The courtiers aim to
keep his majesty under the delusion that he
is the suzeraintyjof the entire earth and that
the ministers from Europe and America,
beiDg merely envoys from tributary king
doms, are unworthy of being admitted to
h:s sacred presence. I shrewdly suspect
that the emperor does not believe this non
sense, and if he does, he is less sensible than
the other 400,000,000 of his subjects. That
the ministers’ request will be denied is, I
think, almost certain, because, though the
emperor is very anxious to have a talk
with them, his conservative advisers will
prevent him from granting them an audi
ence.
If the foreign ministers would only lay
ssido jealousies they might
accomplish something, but they are divided
mto half a dozen cliques aud are thus inca
pable of accomplishing anything. The im
perial government quietly ignores them;
their own compatriots, who are engaged in
commerce at the treaty ports, receive hardly
a “y assistance from them, and the native
officials snub them in many ways. They
must conduct all their negotiations througa
the Isuug-li Yamen, whose duty it is to s.e
that the serenity of the imperial courts is
never disturbed by foreign diplomats and
foreign contract huntrs.
GANDER AND RAT.
Summary Revenge for the Death of a
Gosling?.
From a Letter i New York Sun.
A goose on the Ringie farm hatched out a
fine family of goslings last week. She and
her mate, an imported gander, have been
assiduous in their attentions to the downy
little yellow things, but in spite of that a
big Norway rat, hordes of whose kind infest
the outbuildings on the farm, was smart
enough to elude the watchful eyes of the
goose and gander, and a day or so ago cap
tured one of tho goslings and dragged it to
his lair under the barn. A few feet from
the barn is a low horse trough, which is
kept constantly full of water. There is a
hole three inches in circumference under
the foundation of the barn waich'is a run
away for rats, and it was into this that the
rat dragged the gosling.
The two old geese indulged in noisy lam
entations for some time over the loss of
th ir little one, and then an idea seemed to
strike the gandor. He and his mate held a
sort of confab in subdued tones, and then
they both became quiet. The gander wad
dled up to the rat-hole under the foundation
of the barn and took a position at one side
f it. He stood there motionless and
patient, with his eye fixed on the hole. He
had stood ten minutes or more when the
head of a rat was poked out as far as the
shoulders. Quick as a flash the gander
hurled his head against tho rat’s and his
strong bill closed over its neck. The rat
squealed and struggled, but he couldn’t get
away. The mother goose set up a vocifer
ous and triumphant squawking, and the
gander waddled as fast as he could to the
horse-trough. He shoved the rat under
the water and held him there until he was
drowned.
Then the gander throw the carcass on tho
ground and the two old geese picked and
tore it until it was scattered iu hits about
the barnyard. Whether the rat was the
one that kidnaped the gosling is of courso
not known, but the geese were satisfied with
their vengenoe, and after tearing the dead
rat to pieces joyfully conducted tneir family
of goslings to the duck pond and gave them
their first exercise in swimming.
MRS. CLEVELAND’S MAIL.
Her Popularity Suffers No Diminu
tion.
From the New York Sun
Mrs. Cleveland’s mail has not suffered any
diminution since Bhe left the white house.
How dear she is to the women and tha school
girls of America is best expressed in the
notes and cards that continue to come from
the north, south and west filled with “sor
row that she could not have remained,” and
"hopes, prayers aud good wishes for her
return the next time.” The sincerity and
genuineness of these expressions of admira
tion is fouud iu the addresses and full names
of the fair writers. The begging letters are
simply countless, and the audacity of the
scribblers indescribable. Her interest is in
vited to unpaid policies, expiring leases,
foreclosed mortgages and overdue rent, to
sick children, unemployed men and women,
ambitious aud impoverished students, art
ists and specialists, and asylums, homes,
churches, schools and societies of every
creed, character and need. Autographs,
jewels, personal property, books,
plate, china, wearing apparel and
decorative art works are offered for pur
chase or disposal, and Inventors aud design
ers of every imaginable artiole for toilet,
household aud mechanical use appeal to her
for influence or financial assistance.
The autograph hunters are legion, and
then there are those contemptible busy
ladies who huut up disagreeable paragraphs
and send them to her pasted on the back of
postal cards.
Mrs. Cleveland is too sensible to allow
these intrusive letters to annoy her and too
wise to pay any attention to the frivolous
ones. It is, however, worthy of note that
reduced to currency tho postage of these
aimless letters would amply pay for the
lady’s gloves, shoes and slippers.
NEW YORK PROMOTERS.
A Class of Mon Who Make Money by
Their Acquaintances.
From the Brooklyn Eaale.
Wine agents, insurance brokers and the
gentlemen who are known as “promoters,”
make capital out of their friends. There
exists what seems to be an altogether exag
gerated notion of the value of a personal
acquaintance in New York. A fixed valua
tion, however, is placed upon it. Any man
who is known about town, or whose ac
quaintance i3 so wide that restaurant
waiters and bartenders know him by name,
is usually looked upon by business men as
having a certain market rating as a pro
moter.
Exactly how much promoters aro worth
is an open question. Hut there is no doubt;
that a good share of the ornamental figirres
about town obtain their income solely
through influencing their friends. The
wine agent probably suffers the most. To
be obliged to recommend a certain brand
of champagne on all occasions, simply
because the agents of tho house
pay a salary for such recommendations,
would take away the flavor of the wine
from most men’s palates, but many
of the sons of distinguished New Yorkers
have overcome impecunious difficulties by
the aid of the champagne agents. There
are now at least half a dozen well-known
names on the list, and every one of these
men drink champagne for a purpose and
that purpose is never good fellowship nor
purefgenerosity.
AN INVENTOR'S FOLLY.
Ha Misses the Chance of Making a
Small Fortune.
From Engineering.
A few months ago an inventor of certain
apparatus of a very simple character, which
could have been readily duplicated iu many
different forms, was offered $6,000 for the
right to a certain inland town. He was a
poor man and needed the money badly. The
reader supposes, of course, that the inven
tor jumped at the chance and pocketed ths
money on the spet. Not he; he told the
buyer that the patent was worth SIOO,OOO,
and he was not going to sell one town la
New York state for SO,OOO. The same In
ventor was offered a similar sum for another
large town in the state, or SIO,COO for only
two cities in the country, but he refused to
take it. We have these facts from tne in
ventor nimself, and they are correct. Be
fore it was too late to nego:iato we berated
the man soundly for his folly, but he was
deaf to all argument. The sequel was that
the inventor never sold a single right, and
has his patent to this day.
