TOKIO, Aug. 31.—Land grabbing by the powers in China is the newest and most dangerous menace which con fronts the republican government at Pekin. Cabled advices received here today from Pekin say President Yuan Shai Kai is cognizant of the danger, but is believed to be unable to avert it. Great Britain's hand was shown by the declaration of recognition In behalf of Thibet’s independence. The British government made this move when China sent an army into Thibet to over throw the Thibetan government set up at the same time China threw off the Manchuria yoke. Russia has taken similar action in regard to Mongolia. In fact, Russia has gone further than Great Britain by an nouncing the Muscovite government will not tolerate any attempt on the part of China to overthrow the auton omy of Mongolia. Japan Prepares To Act. Japan is expected to make a move in Manchuria soon. For nearly six months Japan has been massing troops in Korea, the excuse being that more sol diers were needed there for police pur poses due to Manchurian unrest. It is understood here that the Chi nese government has sounded France and Germany regarding their attitude on the partition of the empire. China wants to ally them against land grab bing. So serious has the situation become that a political party is being formed, the platform of which will be the re tention of the great dependencies which China own'ed before the revolution. The Manchurians secretly are fostering their party with an eye to future events. Manchu statesmen believe the party eventually may become powerful enough not only to control the govern ment but to reorganize it.

Women and children rushed out on porches to view the spectacle., but man aged lo keep well out of the way of the flying bullets. At the second shot fired by the negro, Officer Peek stumbled against a rock in the street and fell. This increased the thrills of the fight, as it was thought he had .been shot.

MILEAGE FIGHT APPEARS LOST State Railway Commission Is Reported to Disfavor Grant ing Drummers’ Petition. While the railroad commission has considered in executive session the traveling men’s petition seeking to es tablish the “pulling’’ of mileage on pas senger trains in the state, it seems that the real reason a decision was not handed down yesterday is because the commission inclines to rule against the petitioners, and the traveling men wish (o be heard further. The impression is firmly fixed in the minds of a number of interested people that the commission is prepared to deny the petition, and uphold the governor’s point of view. No word of this has come directly from the commission itself, hut the re ported hostility of a majority of the commission to the issuing of the "pull ing” order seems to befir the earmarks of truth. The matter has been set by the com mission for further argument on Sep tember IS. Both the railroads and the traveling men have been invited to present such additional arguments as they wish to introduce. | ARMY ORDERS WASHINGTON, Aug. 31.—-Captain George H.
