There Is\neven talk today, among some of the\nhigh officials, that tn any other country\nwould be considered as presaging a revolution.\nChina has at present eight Important\nquestions on her hands in regard to negotiations with Great Britain and Japan.\nFour of these matters seriously thi eaten\nher sovereignty.\nAccording to some observers here, the\ngovernment appears to be growing\nweaker, but this evidently is due to the\nfact that her contentions with the powers and' her internal difficulties have\ncome upon her at one and the same time,\nand that she has failed to make use of\nthe abilities of Yuan Shi KM, who complains that h'.s hands are tied and powerless, indo-China has repeatedly sent\nwarnings to Pekln of the dangers attending the revolutionary movement on\nthe Tong King border, where the course\npursued by the rebels has provoked\ntroops from Tong King, which is a\nFrench possession, to cross over into\nthe Chinese province of Kwang Si,\nagainst which the foreign -board has\nprotested, and the French minister here,\nM. Boast, has replied with adequate assurances.\nSir John Jordan, the British minister\nto China, is today sanguine of a satisfactory solution of the West river difficulty. This arises from the prevalence\nof piracy on this waterway, which Great\nBritain is now policing with a small\nfleet of gunboats. Sir John is particularly hopeful in so much as the province of Kwang Tung has conceded a\nclaim of 80,000 tuels for piracy outrages.\nA British gunboat, while searching\nfor pirates on the West river, recently\nBtopped and boarded a French boat. As\n.soon as the nationality of the suspected vessel was made known she was released and proceeded on her way. The\ncourse of action followed by Great Britain with regards Manchuria Is expected\nto ultimately determine whether or not\ncapital other than Japanese would he\npermitted to find investment in that\nterritory.\nThe evacuation of the Chungl valley in Thibet, by British troops, is being delayed among other things, by tk\u00bb\nnecessity of . settling the question of\nwhether Thibet shall be included in the\nprovision* of the Anglo-Chinese treaty,\nconcerning Thibetan trade. It Is hoped\nthat Thibet will be admitted to this\nagreement and that an understanding\nto this effect will shortly be signed.\nROUND IP OF BURGLARS\nWINNIPEG     POLICE     EFFECT     A\nCLEVER   CAPTURE\nOVER   WAGON   LOAD   OF   STOLEN\nGOODS RECOVERED\n(Special to The Daily News)\nWinnipeg, Jan. 11.\u2014The police have\nrounded up a whole gang of burglars\nwho have been operating recently in\nWinnipeg and the west, and the Ave\nmen who have been doing the work are\nnow in the cells.\nThe capture Is one of the cleverest\nin the history of the Winnipeg force.\nFor not only have the burglars been\narrested, but all their plunder has been\ncaptured also and is now in the police\nstation.

There\nwas a great crush to secure admittance\nto the entertainment and when the show\nopened every Beat was taken and the\ngallery was literally packed with children, who filled the aisles and were\ndangerously massed against the lower\nrailing. With a view to relieving the\ncrush, the attendants attempted to\ntransfer some of the children to the\nbody of the house, and one of the\nushers called out, \"Some of you children\ncome downstairs.\"   \u00bb\nImmediately the rusn started and,\nwithin a few second*, hundreds of\nchildren were being trampled under foot.\nEven those who had seats in the gallery, doubtless being panic-stricken by\nthe - screams and struggles of the\ncrowds fighting to reach t.ie staircase,\nJoined in the stampede .\nThe Bcene was a terrible one, the\ncries of the Injured and the moans of\nthe dying causing the greatest exlctte-\nPnent among those gathered in the body\nof the hall.

Scores of children were forced\nby the pressure from the crowd behind\nthem to scramble over those that had\nfallen, whether dead or dying ,and many\nof the Injured children were found later\nto be suffering from fractured bones\nand severe lacerations, caused by the\nindescribable manner In which they hud\nbeen trampled upon.\nSoon after the accident Ihe approaches\nto the hall wejje crowded with sobbing\nwomen searching for their missing\nchildren.\nFOR DEFAMATORY LIBEL\nGROUNDS OF COMMITTAL OF TORONTO  GLOBE'S  EDITOR\nREVEREND J.  A.  MACDONALD  ACCEPTS FULL RESPONSIBILITY\nRev. J. A. Macdonald, managing editor of the Globe, was duly admitted for\ntrial by police magistrate Deuison on\nfour charges of defamatory libel preferred by Dr. W. Seattle Nesbitt, onetime mayoralty candidate.\nHe was admitted to bail. His personal bond for $200 In each case was accepted.\nYesterday's despatches announced that\nthe grand jury bad returned a true bn\nin his case.\nR. A. Reid appeared for Dr. Nesbitt,\nwhile George Wilkle and N. W. Rowell,\nK. C, appeared for Mr. Macdonald.\nThe alleged libel conslts of an article\nentitled \"The Real NeBbltt,\" with an\neditorial comment which appeared In\nthe Globe on Dec. 28. Two articles on\ntho same tines appeared on Dec. 30.\nJ. F. McKay, business manager of the\nGiqbe, was first called. He identified\nthe copy of the Globe containing the alleged Ubel, out wus unable lo say who\nwrote the article \"The Real Nesbltt.\" It\nwould be Mr. Macdonald's work to give\ninstructions for the article to appear,\nthe public that such a publication should\nresponstoility tor the article , This satisfied complainant's counsel and the\nmagistrate.\nMr. Rowell put in as an exhibit an\nadvertisement in the same issue of the\nGlobe ln connection with the candidature of Dr. Nesbltt for the mayoralty.\nHon. Robert Jaffray, president of the\nGlobe was called. He said that he had\nseen the article \"The Real Nesbltt' after\nit was published. He was aware that\nsomething of the kind was to be published. The day before he had a conversation with Rev. Mr. Macondald, to\nthe effect that there were a number of\nreputable men on the platform endorsing Dr. Nesbltt, and with that information in the office of the Globe it was absolutely necessary ln the interests of\nthe public that such a publication should\ntake place. It was then they came to\nthe resolution that the article should\nbe published.\n\"I was very unwilling, but I did\nagree,\" said the senator..\n\"You authorized the Publication of\nthat article?\" asked Mr, Reid.\n\"I have not the right to authorize,\"\nreplied the senator; \"the responsibility\nrests with the editor.   I agreed that It\nwas necessary.\"\nSenator Jaflray said he did not do\nanything to Btop the article, but he was\naverse to it,\nMr. Ewan, he said, was present at\nthe conversation, ana Mr. Ewan was\ncalled. After saying he was a writer\non the Globe, counsel for Dr. Nesbitt\nasked Mr. Ewan If he wrote the stuff\nthey called \"canned goods.\"\nMr. Ewan said he was present at the\nconference at which the article complained of was discussed.

S. Taylor to accept nomination and its efforts being endorsed\nby a very numerously signed requisition,\nrepresentative of all interests, Mr. Taylors consent to run for mayor waa obtained. Beyond that The Daily News\nhas not gone. Mr. Taylor took the\nposition that it was in the best Interests of good civic government not to\nmake up an aldermanic ticket but rather\nto allow the electors to vote for whoever\nthey pleased, irrespective of their connection with any temporary organization, faction or clique. Believing this\nto be sound policy The Dally News has\nconsistently refrained from advocating\nthe candidacy of any particular Individual, contending Itself with occasionally bringing to the notice of Its readers the names of men mentioned as\nGlazed Jardinieres\nIn a rich deep brown, and rich tasteful decoration\n\u25a07 Inches high  91.65 each\n8 inches high  $2.25 each\n9 inches high  $2.95 each\n10 Inches high  \u00a53.90 each\n12 Inches high  $6.00 each\nIn delicate light green shades, dainty\nfloral decorations, raised, in white and\nlight tints.\n7 Inches high  $2.25 each\n8 inches high  $2.95 each\n9 inches high  $3.90 each\n10 inches high  ?4.95 each\nWe have just passed into Stock a\nvery beautiful line of Jardinieres.\nGreen Matt Jardinieres\nPlain.

If I am to be elected mayor I\nwant aldermen whose hearts as well as\ntheir voices will be exclusively with\nNelson's interests. I welcome a contest,\nas I consider that every candidate should\nsecure the endorsation of the electorate.\"\nWe believe that the great majority of\nthe electorate will approve the plan of\navoiding a ticket und of leaving them\nfree to select from whoever may be\nnominated the best men, in their opinion, to serve on the aldermanic board.\nIt will he noted that this morning\nseveral aldermanic candidates publish\ntheir cards and with one exception\nthey all seek election on their merits\nand not as members of any party or\nfaction.\nEDITORIAL   NOTES\nThe Dally News is in receipts of two\nunsigned communications, one re 20,000\nclub, the other re Frultvaie lands. Publication of these communications Is deferred pending receipt of writers' names,\nnot necessarily for publication but as\nevidence of good faith. No unsigned\ncommunications will be published in\nthese columns under any consideration.\nIt is quite probable that Mr. S. S.\nTaylor will be elected mayor of Nelson\ntomorrow by acclmatlon. As there is\nno likelihood of a keen public contest\nIt would be just as well if this proved\nto be the outcome of tomorrow's nominations. Mr. Taylor only accepted nom-\niation after strong pressure had been\nbrought to bear upon him by a very\nlarge number of his fellow citizens, being finally convinced that his services\nwere really required. For aldermen It\nappears probable that there will be a\ncontest, although, here again, there is\nlittle promise of anything like public\ndiscussion of the merits and demerits\nof the prospective candidates. It was\nto have been expected that the retiring\ncouncil would take occasion to give an\naccount of their stewardship at a public\nmeeting of the electors, but this has not\nbeen done and cannot now be done before nominations are made for the new\ncouncil. Under these circumstances,\nelectors will have to exercise their own\nbest judgment in selecting a boar* of\naldermen that will give Mr. Taylor good\nassistance in carrying out the several\ndifficult problems that he will have to\ngrapple with. The new council should\nconsist of men wholly devoted to Nelson's welfare and uninfluenced by any\nparty ties or factional predilections.\nNEW PRIMA DONNA ARRIVES\nNew York, Jan. 11\u2014Madame Tetraazlnl.\nprima donna, who comes to America to fill\nan engagement at tho Manhattan opera\nlimine, arrived here today on tho steamer\nLa Torralne.

W. BISHOP, Manager\nBerlin, Jan. 10\u2014The most intense excitement has been aroused by an interpellation presented recently In the Prussian\nlandtag by a liberal member and demanding the Introduction of manhood suffrage\nlit the election ot members of the lower\nhouse of the Prusskm landtag. Last night\nno fewer than 35 socialist mass meetings\nwere held In Berlin as well as many others\nin the country districts, in favor of the\nmovement. This morning before the lond-\ntag convened socialists to the number of\n10W mnrchel in procession before the parliament buildings. Tho demonstration assumed a somewhat threatening aspect and\na large body of police were called to tho\nscene. They surrounded the entrances to\nthe building but there were no disorders.\nUnder the present electoral system In\nPrussia there are three classes of electors.\nUp to the present time the laboring men\nhave been completely deprived of representation In th Prussian parliament owing\nto tho fact that they were overwhelmed\nat the final election by tbe other classes.\nThe categories of electors unc formed\narbitrarily by dividing the total amount of\ntaxation received by the state Into three\nequal parts. A small number of wealthy\npersons paying the first third of the total\ntaxation select a certain number of men\nfrom their ranks to act aa final voters.\nA more extended number of less wealthy\npersons who pay the next third of the full\namount of taxation, choose an equal number of final electors while a third class of\nvoters, composed of tbe remainder of the\npopulation and including the workmenn,\nwhose number* reach to the millions, are\nallowed to select a number of final voters\nequal to that chosen by each of tbe other\nclasses. Tho total number of final electors selected by this process then proceed\ntto cast the final vote, at which tho representatives of tbe first two classes always\nvote solidly together, thus shutting out any\npossibility of the election of a representative of the working classes.\nPrince von Buelow, the imperial chancellor, hoe made known bis Intention of\nspeaking on this subject during the debate\nwhich is to follow the presentation of the\nInterpellation.\nThe crowd before the parliament buildings increased rapidly and soon numbered\nmany thousands. When the doors were\nopened those nearest to them attempted to\ncrush their way into teh building but tho\npolice managed to keep the people back\nand later cleared the surrounding streets.\nThe police wore still trying to maintain\norder when prince von Buelow drove up.\nHla presence was greeted with loud and\nIronical cheers accompanied by rriuoh hooting and shouts of \" we want manhood suffrage.\" The police In the meapntlmo had\nbeen strongly reinforced and curbed the\nrising torrent of the crowd, clearing the\napproaches to the building and wrlvlng the\ncrowd Into the side streets. As the people\nwere being hustled awya they hissed continually. The manlfestants remained ln\nthe vicinity of the building.\nVarious speeches were made In the land'\ntag on the question at Issue, but at the\nclose of the session! prince von Buelow,\nthe imperial chancellor declared that man-\nSteam Turbine Sets\nThe fact that not a serious weak, point has been\ndeveloped in our steam turbine generating sets, abundantly illustrates the perfection of Westinghouse types.\nConstructed in sizes from 300 to 7,500 K.W.

While admitting that\nthe fleet of admiral Evans is superior to\nthat of the Japaneso, the writer maintain^\nthnt the moral value of the Japanese crews\nIs mighty superior to that of the Americans. He declares that the Japanese sailors have shown themselves vastly superior\nto the Americans and, Indeed, to theose of\nail other nations. Ho accounts for this by\ntho intense patriotism of the soldiers of\nthe mikado, coupled with their philosophic\nand fatalistic bravery. The strategic position of the Japanese Is also superior declares the writer. They are ln a position\nto seize Hawaii and thus prevent admiral\nEvans from reaching the Philippines, The\nrecall of ambassador Aoki he alleges Is\nmerely a preliminary to such action and\nthe Insults offered to the Japanese In California will serve as an excuse.\nThe French writer declares that the Japanese despise the American navy and believe that the Japanese fleet will be able\nto send to the bottom as easily as It did\nthe Russian armada. The French critic\ndoes not agree with this- and gives It as' his\nopinion that admiral Evans would he victorious except for the strategic odd?\nagainst him. The resuscitated ~Russlan\nehlps Instead of being an advantage to the\nJapanese he believes will bo a positive hindrance to the success'of the projects of\nJapan.\nThe article concludes with the statement\nthat before admiral Evans rounds cape\nHorn the Japanese will be ln a position to\nseize Hawaii and that this action will\nbegin what will probably be the most sanguinary naval warfare in the history of the\nworld.\nThe position of England in the coming\nwar is also the subject of speculation on\nthe part of the Journal writer. He hazards the opinion that Great Britain is so\nclosely bound to Japan that while maintaining an attitude of neutrality the English will aid their Pacific allies in every\nmanner possible and that this may possibly lead to war between the United States\nand Great Britain. In\/this case all Europe\nwould probably become embroiled and tlie\ngreatest war In history would follow.\nNEWYORKFASHION LETTER\nNew York, Jan. 11.\u2014\"There is a tendency towards boned waists,\" says one\not the foreign fashion writers. At flrst\nthought one sighs with disgust at the\nremembrance of the boned waist of 20\nyears ago, and pictures of ladles, who\nlook like carved out wooden dolls, come\nbefore our eyes. Must we be like these\ncreatures! But In every revival of an\nold fashions one sees modifications and\nadditions which make it more pleasing,\nand the knowledge of cutting designing\nand trimming has become an art such\nas was not known years ago. The\nnow waists follow the natural lnles of\nthe figure. Its boned lining flts to a\nnicety, while the outer goods is often,\nin fact almost always, draped. It curves\nover a round bust and tapers into a\nbelt placed at the normal waist line.\nThe draperies of these waists nre the\noutcome ot the snpllce and fichu and\nkimono-sleeve models, and some are arranged In curving, over-lapping folds\ncalled \"Capuchin,\" after tho monkish\ngarb it originated from.\nSome of the three-piece gowns use\nthis \"Capuchin\" mode as the hollow\ncurves above the bust leaves a space\nup to the throat for a lace piece, aud the\nsleeves, something like the kimono\nmodel, show lace under-Bleeves, giving\nthe effect of an underwalst of lace. In\nthese costumes It Is Imperative that the\nsloping should effect be kept.\nA costume carrying out these Ideas\nconsisted of a skirt made closely after\nthe \"Paqulm\" model, which I described\nsome weeks ago, and a waist of the\nboned order, \"Remcmbrandts,\" a warm\ntan shade often seen in the pictures of\nthe great artist ot that name, was the\ncolor and crepe meteor was the material used.\nThe skirt cliuga closely to the figure,\nbut all strained effects are obviated by\nthe soft folds over the front and hack,\nwhich are slightly suggestive of the\nlines of the habit skirt, and makes possible such a eheath-like skirt.\nThe lining to the waist is whale-\nboned nnd covered with cream guipure\nlace. Above this Is a bodice of \"Capuchin\" folds extending across the bust,\nwith the fullness gathered under the girdle that is part of the skirt. Bach of\nthese folds Is outllnod with a silver\ncord, very fine and strung at Intervals\nwith tiny seed pearls. The sleeves are\nsimply a series of folds that extend over\nthe shoulders from under which extend\nthose of lace In seven-elghthB length.\nWhile the skirt Is a model that many\nwomen will eschew and Indeed, It is\nnot becoming to many women, the walet\nwill he a favorite model and may be\ncombined with other modes of skirts,\nall except the \"trotteur\" or sidewalk\nskirt.\nThe \"tnnique\" skirt Is one that suits\nmost figures and Is particularly becoming to the short or full-figured woman,\nand a style that goes well with the new\nboned waist. This skirt Is an elegant\nmode for graceful shaping, fitting the\nhips in close, circular effect, the long,\ngraceful lines suggest an oversklrt,\nwhich resemblance is emphasized by the\ncontrasting material used for the long\nskirt revealed between and below the\ntunic points. A popular design for a\nskirt of this description consists of a\nfoundation of seven gores, which is\ndraped with a deep circular flounce.\nOver this Is draped a three-piece tunic\nor oversklrt. The openings at the side\nseams of the oversklrt add to the effectiveness of the style, and short tucks\non each side of tne front and centre-\nhack allow the tunic to fall In grace-\nfu folds. The folds are the waist used\nwith this skirt were decorated with tiny\nr\nto *!\nMl the Sane foods for Lea Montr\n0m Price for Ererybody iwl Hut tbe Lowest\nStore\nopens daily\nat 8 a.m,.\nheavy\nand\nMEAGHER'S\nStore\ncloses at\n6 p.m.\nJANUARY GLARING SALE\nOdd Lines of Stockings at Less Than Cost\nThere's about 30 doz. in the lot.

The\nlumbermen are all going hack to their\nhomes this morning, but will assemble\nagain in this city at some undecided\ndate next month, wben the prospects for\ncoming season will be better developed\nthan they are at the present time.\nThe chief huslness transactd today was\nthe consideration of the address by Dr.\nJudson Clark with reference to a B. C.\nChamber of Forestry, the regulation of\nthe price of lumber and the determination of the output for the year.\nThe alms and objects which Dr. Judson Clark so clearly set forth on Friday\nafternoon, after considerable debate and\nelaboration, were found to meet with the\nviews of the lumbermen of the mountain\nsection of the country. A resolution\nwas therefore passed endorsing the formation of such a chamber and in addition, to aid the organizing of local\nbranceB wherever most suitable.\nBargains\nat China Hall\nWe nre overcrowded with China and\nare going to get rid of it at any price.\nFancy China of every description, 10\ncents up.\nGlassware, Lamp Goods, Toilet Ware,\nJardlneres, etc., etc.\nBest Quality, Biggest Snaps, ever offered in Nelson.\nGet in while there Is plenty to choose\nfrom.\nMunro & Nelson\nPhone A261.\nP. O. Box 588.\nAs to the price of lumber, that vital\npoint to the ontslde public, there then\noccurred another lively debate. Finally\nit was decided that there should be no\nlowering of the price although there was\nconsiderable stock In hand. It was\npointed out that the lumber in stock\nwas Imber for which the lumber men\nhad paid more per thousand than for\nany lumber heretofore manufactured by\nthem. This was due to the high cost\nof labor and supplies which had prevailed during the past summer. The\nlumbermen did not see their way to\nmake any reduction in the prices, although It was fully recognized that the\nmarket for what they had In hand\nwould greatly depend on the prospects\nfor the next crop in the northwest provinces. They recognized that this market would be dull for many months to\ncome. At the same time it was the genera) reeling that the stringency In the\nmoney market was not so much due to\nthe partial failure of last year's crop\nhere and there but rather to causes In\nthe money market altogether outside, of\nsuch influences. Hence, that with a\ngood crop this year, coupled with the\nhigh prices obtained for last year'se\ncrop, the market at a later date would\nprobably be as good as ever.\nA few alteration were made In the\nprices of certain descriptions of lumber.\nRough lumber was left untouched. That\nis to say that the lumber for which\nthere Is the greatest demand will be\nable to be obtained at the old rates.\nJewelry Manufacturing\nIs One of Our Strong Departments\nWe will remodel any ring, brooch of jewelry of any kind to your\nown design or we will gladly furnish an Idea of our own and will guarantee perfect satisfaction.\nDo Not Put Off the Resetting\nof a Gem, You May Lose it\nJ.O.PATENAUDE\nManufacturing Jeweler, Watchmaker and Optican,\nSLOCAN PARK\nStation, p.
