Uesources Diminishing.
The third paragraph sets forth that
the resources of China are diminishing.
The government in recent years was
only able to raise 88,000,000 taels ($61,-
000,000) a year, of which 24,000,000 taels
($i7,000,000) go to pay the war loan and
16,000,000 taels (|ll,000,000) more to
other foreign obligations. After dwell
ing at length upon the diminishing rev
enue and the great number of outstand
ing obligations of the country, the plen
ipotentiaries propose to set aside 15,-
000,000 taels ($10,000,000) annually, to
be paid to the powers in monthly in

COCKFIGHTING IB ILLEGAL
So Declared Iiy Attorney General—it
Js L/ikely, However, That Violation*

Local Authorities.
Sax Juan, P. F.,, May 14 —Attorney
'General Harlan has decided that cock-
fighting is illegal; so about the only
amusement of the Porto Ricans is to be
taken from them.
In May a general order was issued
which officially approved the regula
tions of the local society for the preven
tion of cruelty to animals.
One of these regulations prohibited
cock-fighting, but the order was never
enforced. The attorney general, on be
ing asked to decide whether the gen
eral order of the military authorities
was still law, held that it must be con
sidered as a general police regulation,
to be enforced as are other lawfi. The
penalty provided is heavy.
Rough on tlie Sports.
Sports are entirely lacking in Porte
Rico. The small boys are just begin
ning to know about baseball and in a
few years that game may become popn
lar, but to deny the people of the coun
try cock-fighriug is to take from them
their principal recreation.
Chief of Police Fetchersaid yesterday
•that he was in favor of cock-fighting
■and did not intend to hunt for cockpits.
Any pit against which a complaint
might be made would be raided, but no
wholesale arrests would follow. The
'chief evidently goes on the principle
tthat a custom of 800 years cannot be
uprooted in a day.
“Three things, drinking, gambling
and cock-fighting,” said he, “must al
ways exist here.”

Scottsboko, Ala., May 15.—Surveys
are now being made for a branch rail
road from Doran’s Cove to the famous
Needmore Cove property, which is on
top of the mountain, 7 miles northwest
of that point. If the road is built on
the west side of the cove it will tap the
Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis
railroad at Bolivar, and on the other
side at Bridgeport. The road will be
built by the Nashville, Chattanooga and
St. Louis railway, and will be miles
in length.
The surveyors are still at work and
have made no decision as to which side
of the cove they will choose. They are
surveying both sides in order to get the
lowest per cent grade. When the road
is built it will open up a large field of
coal and timber laud. It will touch the

! acres, on which the outcropping of coal
j at one place shows up llp 2 feet.

Portions of the Cup Challenger to Be

Southampton, May .15. — Designer
Watson has reached the conclusion that
the hull of the Shamrock II is suscep
tible of improvement, and there is rea
son to believe that alterations are about
to be made amounting practically to
the remodelling of portions of the boat.
The preparations at the dock where
the challenger %vill be placed indicate
radical changes not connected with the
spars and canvas, which have hitherto
been blamed for the boat’s short
comings. A large gang of platers and
riveters who assisted in the building of
the yacht has been summoned from
Dumbarton by telegraph. These men
will arrive today and will work day and
night until the alterations are comple

Lick Observatory, Cal., May 15.—
The comet discovered at Queenstowne,

first time the comet has been seen at

Savannah, May II.—Yesterday after
noon, just before the adjournment of
the day’s session of the ninth annual
conference of the Georgia Epworth
League at Wesley Memorial church,
that body voted to dissolve after the
conference ends tonight and meet no
more. In its stead will grow up two
Epworth bodies in Georgia, that of the
North Georgia conference and that oi
the South Georgia conference. There
was no objection to this plan, and the
resolution providing for the dissolution
and the reformation under the new plan
was carried without dissent.
There was some little discussion upon
the resolution, and some wanted to par
off final action, but those in favor of
immediate action carried their point,
and when the time came to vote no one
entered a protest. Before the present
conference adjourns the two confer
ences thus provided for will meet and

Attitude of United States.
London, May 14—The foreign office
has issued a Chinese blue book, bring
ing the record of the negotiations down
to December. The cable by which Min
ister Conger was instructed to agree
with the conditions imposed on China
forms the basis for almost a score of dis
patches. One of these from Lord Lans-
downe to Lord Pauncefote, dated Dec.
18, contains the following: “Mr. Choate
told me there was doubc as to whether
the president had the right, without an
act of congress, to accept words which
might have the effect of making it in
cumbent on the United States govern
ment to remain in permanent occupa
tion of Chinese territory. I told Mr.
Choate that in my opinion the words
did not go as far as he supposed. ”

Alleged Commercial League Against
United States.
Berlin, May 14.—Government offi
cials deny that negotiations are goin<
on between Austria and Germany for i
European commercial league against the
United States. The idea is regarded as
impracticable, owing to the diversities
of race and commercial interests.
The representative of the Associated
Press interviewed Andrew D. White,
the United States ambassador, and
Frank Gleeson, United States consul
here, in regard to the matter. They
both said they had heard of no negotia
tions in connection with the league re
ferred to. They regarded the matter as
chimerical and did not believe there
were any two nations in favor of such a
league.

A special dispatch from Albany, this
state, says that there has been great
damage to all growing crops by the late
cold and wind and especially by the
hail storms in that section of the past
week. Cotton, corn, canteloupes, wa
termelons and peaches have been the
principal sufferers, while tomato plants
have been beaten down and twisted so
badly that this crop will be almost a
failure for early production.
Fortunately, this section of the state
has fared better than these unfortunate
districts above referred to. While there
has been some damage to crops, the
general situation is fair and in truck and
fruit there will be little if any real set

Coroner’s Jury Exonerates Man Who
Did the shooting.
Newnan, Ga., May If.—T. J. Wood,
who had a personal difficulty with H.
W. Dews Sunday morning at the Cow

that night from wounds inflicted with
a 38-caliber Smith & Wesson pistol in
the hands of Dews.
After an examination of the eye wit
nesses to the shooting, the coroner’s
jury exonerated Dews aud returned a
verdict of justifiable homicide. The
testimony showed that when the shoot
ing was done Wood was using a heavy
hickory stick on Dews, who was physi
cally unable to protect himself from his
adversary’s strength.
There appears to be no inclination to
ward prosecution in the matter and it
will likely rest as it is. Wood leaves a
wife and several children. He had
