According to Wong Chin Foo, the editor of the Chinese News in Chicago, China is on the eve of an upheaval such as is now going on in Cuba. He was shown the reports in the cables from London to the effect that Sung Yat Sen, the Chinaman who was kidnapped in London, and only released from the Chineee Embassy at the jemand of Lord Salisbury, was a

An Italian Consul andSome Naval O Mcers Killed by the Somalls,

Advices received at Rome from Zanzibar give details of the massacre of Senor Coch '

the Italian Coneul, and a number of L alian officers who were with him at Magadoxa, Somali.and. It is stated that

fourteen Italians were killed. The caravan was attacked during the night by the Somalis. The latter were repulsed at first, but rallied Jaier, and continually attacked the retreating caravan. The Italians and their escort ot Askaris fought desperately but were eventually overpowered. So soon asthe news of the fighting reached Magadoxa, a detachment of sailors aud a force of Askaris were sent to the assistance of the caravan, but they arrived too late to save the Italians. ‘he rescue party recovered twenty-seven budies and arrest~ ed many Somali tribesmen, who took part in the massacre. These prisoners were punished in an exemplary manner.

In the Italian Chamber of Deputies the Marquis Viscount Venosti, Minister of Foreign Affairs, confirmed the reports received from Zanzibar of the murder of the Italian consul, Signor Gecbi, the cap- tains and a aumber of other officers of the I:alian warships Voltornuna and Staffetta, and the wounding of a hundred or more other Italians by Somalis at Magadoxa. The men had fallen into an ambuscade, and were caught without warning. The Government, the Mirister said, would take energetic measures to punish the Somalis who were guilty of the outrage.

LI HUNG CHANG’S COFFIN, Is Said to Have Been Burned by Aceident and Li is Glad of it,

Among the thousand or more pieces of baggage which Li Hung Chang took with. him in his western travels ihe one that excited the greatest curiosity was, without doubt, his coffin. The viceroy’s age at that time already exceeded the biblical limit of three rcore years and ten. At a family courcil held before his seiting out from home the chances of a man of his age surviving the fatigue of a long ocean voyage were discussed and decided to be very small. Accordingly preparations were made for the worst, and acoffin was added to his baggage. But the old man proved that he was made of tougher etuff than was generally supposed. When he reached England he felt that he had strength and vitality enough to carry him through the remainder of his journey, and gave orders that the constant reminder of his approaching death be shipped back to China.

The coffin got as far as the Suez canal. There, as recent advices {rom the east have it, fire broke out in the steamer and Li Hung Chang’s coffin added fuel to the flames.

There is no doubt that the viceroy looks upoo this loss as a good omen. _ =iIf he is not above superstition he will interpret it to mean that he has not yet come near the end of bis earthly career, inasmuch ae the boards that are to hold his mortal remains have still to be fashioned.

-—— nS ee ————— — SPANISH CRUELTY REPORTED,

They are Accused ef Torturiag Their Pri- * soners in the Most Inhuman Manner.

A special despatch to the San Francisco Examiner from Tacoma, Washington, says: Mail advices received via Hong Kong confirm the charges already pub- lished against the Spanish officers who are attempting to crush out the rebellion in the Philippine islands. They are ac- cused of torturing their prisoners in the most merciless manner, employing for the purpose some of the famous implements which the history of the inquisition has made familiar. It is true that the pro- perty of wealthy natives is being confis- cated, and that an attempt is being made

: by Spanish officers to raise $10,000,000 of

the Panceo Espanol Filipino, giving as a guarantee the confiscated property of the rebels. The rebele are mostly armed with Mauser rifles and have plenty of funds. Their strength in fighting men is estimated at from twenty to thirty thousand. Many engagements occurred during October, but no decisive battle had been fought up to November 5.

A DREAM,

SAVED BY

How a Castaway’s Vision of a Sail Brought Relief to Three.

The American brigantine May T. Kim- ball sailed from Mobile for Gu vntanamo, Cubs, on August 29. Head winds bothered her, and she was still inthe Gulf off Southern Florida on September 22. At one bell of the forenoon watch that day a bowling gale jumped oat of the southeast. Under naked poles the brigantine ran before it. Soon the seas bad charge of her decks and all hands manned the pumps. The brigantine then began to sink, aod everything was cutaway. The boats were smashed to pieces during this pro- ceeding.

An onslaught of destroying waves knocked James Jeffers and two shipmates,

Elijah Cash and Peter Madison, all colored, overboard. Though that wave

brought them face to face with death it really saved their liyes. The top of the cabin of the vessel had been ripped off by the storm, and the three struggling sailors climbed on it. From it they witnessed the five other members of the crew go down with the vessel,

Jeffers is an Epscopal'an. He told his fellow castaways that their only chance for life Iay in praver. So Jeflers prayed, and on the second day after the sh'pwreck Cash and Madison became converied and confessed their sins. For six days the turbulence of the waves did noi abate. There was not aminute when the cast- aways were not half submerged. Many times they were washed off the roof but regained their raft. There was nothing io do bat pray and keep watch for a sail.

On the seventh day Madison became delirious. At midnight of the same day Jetters dreamed that he was close to land, and called to the other boys, “ Come, let’s go ashore.” He shoved a board under- neath the raft but found ao bottom. Be- fore they could restrain him Jeffers jamped into the sea. His mates pulled him back.

At9a.m.on the eleventh day, when all were asleep, Jeffers had another dream. He thought aman stood near and said: “ Arise! Arise! There’s a ship which I have prepared for you.” He arose, saw the brig Hansen, and woke his compan- ions. Their eignals were seer. The Hansen took them to Liverpool, and Jeffers and Cash arrived in New York on the Umbria last Sunday. During the

Speculation Regarding Repre- s°ntation in the Cabinet

And Changes in the House of Commons and the Senate.

neces

MonrreaL, Dee. 12. When Hon. Geo. Kirkpatrick’s term of | oflice expires the political prophets here say that an important shuttle will take place, more especially in the Quebee repre- sentation in Laurier’s Cabinet. Hon. Mr. Edgar, whois to be Governor of Ontario, will be replaced as Speaker of the Com- mons either by Deputy Speaker Brodeur or C. A. Beausoleil, who recently rallied to the Premier’s support in Manitoba school matters. If Brodeur accepts the Speaker- ship, Beausolie', who hates Tarte worse than his Satanic Majesty bates holy water, will leave the Commons and become Judge of the Circuit Court in this city, But shauld Beausoliel become Speaker, then Brodeur will be addressed as “His Honor” and Jeave political life.

It is now pretty well understood that in spite of Tarte’s desire to give Sir Joseph Chapleuu a second term at Spencerwood, th» influence of his old Liberal colleague will be too strong and will result in the appointment of Hon. Senator Pelletier as Lieut. Governor of Quebec. Sir Henri Joly de Lotkenier will then Icave the Cabinet and accept the vacant Sepatorship and become a. Fresident of the Upper Chamber, the Gallant Knight’s porttolio being taken by Mr. Choquette, M. P. for Montmagpy.
