SIXTY THOUSAND TROOPS |

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 21.—China-|
town is in a ferment over the receipt of '
cablegrams that Chung Hwa republic is |
preparing for a war with Russia for the ,
possession of the province of Mongolia, i
The big secret societies which fostered i
the revolutionary movement and led
the campaign for funds through their ’
headquarters here have for the last
week been interchanging cablegrams i
with President Yuan Shi Kai and Gov
ernor \Vu lion Man. of Quang Tung i
province, concerning the situation in I
I Mongolia. The climax was reached <
‘last night, when the Young China as
j soclation, the society organized by Dr.
Sun Yat Sen, China’s liberator, opened
a public campaign for funds to sustain
a war with Russia.
Lecturers were sent through China
town today bearing placards announc
ing "Chinese-Russian war lectures.” At
street corners they explained to the
Chinese the situation, saying that war
was imminent and that funds were nec
essary to aid China.
The situation parallels the action last
September, when the Young China as
sociation publicly opened the campaign
for funds for the Chinese revolutionary
movement.
Dispatches have been received by
Gook Har, secretary to Fung Chi J'ou,
secretary of state of Yuan Shi Kai's
cabinet, to the effect that an army of
60.000 has been mobilized in Pekin and
that General Wong Hing, hero of the

In spile of the warlike character which he shares with his subjects. King Nicholas of Monte
negro, as this photograph indicates, is no stranger to domestic sentiment. He is, in fact, very
much a family man. He married in IS6O Milena Vucotitch, daughter of a Montenegrin senator,
and they have nine children surviving—three sons and six daughters. Another daughter, who
died in 1890, was the wife of King Peter of Servia. Os those living, one is Queen of Italv.
Little Prince Michael, who is seen in the photograph on his grandfather's knee, is the eldest
son of King Nicholas’s second son. Prince Mirko, who in 1902 married Nathalie ('onstantinovitch.
Prince Michael was born in 1908. at Podgoritza, which lately attained world-wide fame as the
headquarters of his grandfather's army against the Turks.
This charming photograph of the venerable monarch in homelv surroundings forms a striking
contrast to most of those recently published, in which he appears as leader of his army amid all
the grim realities of war. It may be added that Prince Mirko has a younger son, Prince Paul,
born at Podgoritza two years ago.

If the garbage has to be dumped. Atlanta will be reeking with

j CHARLESTON. VV. VA„ Nov. 21.
, Entire villages are being deserted by
tin- striking coal miners and their fam
ilies in tlie district now under martial
law and the men are taking to tlie hills
and preparing to fight. Anarchy ex
ists at many points and conditions are
so ominous that tlie authorities are to

L'nited States soldiers to restore condi
tions to nojmal there for once and all.
Major James I. Bratt said today the
situation is worse now than at any
time since the troubles first began ear
lier in the year. The soldiers slept on
! their guns last night. It is believed the
miners, who are assembling on the hill
sides. are being marshaled for an at
tack. They are desperate and bloody
civil war is imminent.

GREMM
! FAGTIONS IN
DECISIVE
CLASH
Woodward and Gilbert Make
Final Arguments Before the
Aldermanic Board.
I
FIGHT ON TO HAVE ORDER
FOR RAZING RESCINDED
The crematory fight before the al
dermanie board this afternoon may be
the final clash, if the board fails to
reconsider by a majority vote the res
olution ordering the demolition of tie
old plant. Acting Mayor Candler tvil
approve the resolution and the crema
tory will be in ruins by Sunday.
If tlie aldermanic board rescinds it;
order, however, the proposition to de
stroy the old plant will be thrown back
in c6uncil. and it would* be Impossi
ble to get an order through council i»
destroy tlie plant before James G
Woodward becomes mayor.
Mr. Woodward asserts that the ere
mutory will never be torn down until
new one is ready to begin operatloi.
Woodward Has But
Three of Ten Votes.
Mr. Woodward and Dr. W. L Gil
bert. president of the board of health
will be the leading spokesmen for th'
opposing propositions this afternoon. 1
will take a unanimous consent of th'
members of tlie board for them ti
-speak. It. is expected that this will b>
granted.
There are ten members ot the board
Mr. Woodward only has throe certaii
votes. It will take six votes for him *<
carry his point. He said lie believed h
would get the needed number.
Dr. Gilbert gave out this writtet
statement today:
Two years ago the board of
health, realizing that tlie present
crematory was inadequate, appoint
ed a committee for the purpose of
Investigating and reporting on the
l>est modern method of garbage dis
posal for the city of Atlanta. The
committee visited many cities of the
North and East.
Declares Old Plant
Must Come Down.
Siiecilications were issued, bids
invited, and. upon the recommen
dation m Dr. Rudolph Herring,
w hom the city, had employed to
advise it. and after a full discus
sion by the board ot' health, tile
city council, tlie board of aidermen
and by tlie bond commission, with
• the approval of the mayor and city
attorney. Hie present contract with
■ tlie Destructor Company, of New
York, was made.
The entile question of installing
the new crematory rests on tearing
j down tlie old plant. It is absolute
ly a physical impossibility to build
the new plant on the eity's proper
ty while the present furnace is tn
. operation.
There is no real objection to a
tearing down the old plant. It is
worn out. ami the expenditure ot
$3,000 rejiorted necessary for re
paiis would only put it In service*
ible rendition temporarily.
