CHINESE REpCLS WIN
M illtary Commander Aitassslnated 1
Government Troops MutimoJ
Hiankow, China, Oct , ll.-The rev
olutionaries have won a notable vic
tory, gaining possession of the city of
We Chung after a battle with the loy'
al troops that began yesterday and
continued well into last night. To
day the foreign residents had not bee.i
molested. The revolutionary commit
tee issued a proclamation exhorting its
followers not to harm the citizens of
other countries.
The fear of the officials now is that
the disaffection among the troops will
spread to the city, and every effort is
toeing made to ward off tins danger.
Five gunboats, are now in" the river in
readiness to protect Hankow should
the necessity arise. The foreign con
suls have also telegraphed their, gov
ernments asking that warships be sent
to the scene. American and Japanese
cruisers are expected herd tonight
while several gunboats are , hastening
hitherto.
Volunteers have surrounded the for
eign quarter and will remain on duty
day ano night until the safety of all
foreigners is secured.
According to the , officials, uprising
in Wu Chang was ' planned for lafct
Monday night. The .plot waa discover
ed early that evening and 32 arrests
were made. Desiring to terrorize the
revolutionists four of the " prisoners
were beheaded in the street before the
viceroy'B yamen yesterday. The ener
getic action of the authorities do not
appear to 'have had the desired effect.
Immediately after the execution, a
portion of the artillety forces within
the. city mutinied and their action pre
cipitated a fight.
A disaffection in the artillery spread
to other forces and the revolutionists
took advantage of the situation. .
The forces that remained loyal
were overcome. The Koti appealed to
tc the foreign consuls to instruct their
warships to guard the harbor limits
and head off any reinforcements that
might be approaching the city from
the river to strengthen the rebels. The
viceroy sent a message to Peking ur
gently requesting ' the , immediate de
spatch of warships from Tien Tsin. Fi-
naly seeing that further resistance
was useless the viceroy fled the city
and found refuge on a private yacht
that was lying in the river. His head
quarters and those of the provincial
treasurer were : burned. . The military
conmamnder was assassinated.
Peking, China, Oct. 11. A special
cabinet meeting was held this after
noon to consider the situation at Wu
Chang.
The viceroy of Hu-Peh province,
who' escaped from WuChang and
boarded a yacht in the river, reports
that he was aware of the existence of
an extensive revolutionary organiza
tion for several weeks past. Last
Monday he learned that an outbreak
had been fixed for that midnight He
made thirty-two arrests and seized
document, proclamation, explosives
and forged seals, along with papers
that showed that the revolutionists
intended to make Hu-Peh. the base of
operations which were planned to
envelop the Yag Tse Kiang provinces,
particularly ,Hunan.
The United States gunboat Villalo
bes is now at Hankow and the United
States gunboat Helena is expected to
arrive tomorrow. Other foreign gun
boats are on-their way . to that place.
The Chinese' government has de
patched troops, which are marching
rapidly and will reach Hankow within
a few hours.
It is estimated by Peking officials
that not less than eight thousand sol
diers are taking part in the rebellion,
which is the most serious in many
years.
The. American consul general at
Hankow, Roger S. ureene, reports
that Vice Consul Mason T. Johnson,
crossed the river and attempted to
enter Wu Chang.; He was not admit
ted within the city, but was informed
that the missionaries were safe.'
It is outhoritatively reported that
the Chinese in Szechuen province have
captured Kiating and are beseiging
Yachow-Fu.
Some anxiety Is felt by the govern
ment over the situation at wu-Chang
because a government arsenal is lo
cated there and the rebels will be able
tc capture many military supplies.
Tokio, Oct. 11. The situation at
Hankow and Wu-Chang is regarded
here as very alarming. A Japanese
gunboat has been ordered to those
waters.

v CONTROLLING COAL OUTPUT
Government's Suit Against Railroads
I and Coal Companies .
Washington, Oct. 11. The so-call
ed "hard coal case" was taken under
consideration' today by the Supreme
Court of the. United States after a two-
day argument by, counsel f Or the gov
ernment and the principal roads and
coal owning companies in the anthra
cite coal regions of 1 Pennsylvania
with violating the Sherman anti-trust
law.
The main argument defendants
made was by John G. Johnson; of
Philadelphia. He said-that v it: would
be ideal to have separate anthracite
railroads and coal companies in par-
ticulr, put that close relationship be
tween them is essential to the growth
of the coar region and .was necessary
because he railroads had to have ton
nage to recompense them for the ex
pense for building into that -region
He "combatted the government con
tention that the railroads were com
peting lines; saying that , the railroads,
on account of reaching. different coal
localities, were "not competitors,
though they carried competitive ma
terial. .
James H. Torrey, for the defense,
asked by the government had taken
no action against independent opera
tors who sold coal under C5 per cent,
contracts to coal companies whose
stocks were owned by the Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company and by the
New York, Ontario and Western Rail
road Company. "If their coal com
panies ' are free to make contracts,
while the others are to be debarred,"
said he, "it is conceivable that the
result of thi3 proceeding may be to
increase largely the coal companies
of Pennsylvania and of the New York,
Ontario and Western and to shift the
control of the anthracite 'market to
persons other than the principal de
fendants and who may be presumed to
be actuated by like motives."
The closing argument for the gov
ernment was made by J. C. McRey
nolds, special assistant to the Attor
ney General." He outlined the relief
desired, and, answering Mr. Torrey,
he said the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and the New York, Ontario
and Western Railroads were not made
defendants in the suits as neither ..ad
been represented at the conference of
railorads where the "objectionable G5
per cent, contracts" were agreed upon.
He added that neither was a stock
holder in the Temple Iron Company by
which the government claims the Phil
adelphia and Reading, the Lehigh Val
ley, the Deleware, Lackawana and
Western, the Central of New Jersey,
the Erie and tne New York, Susque
hanna and Western Railroad Com
panies, all entering the anthracite re
gion, are held together in an illegal
combination. ,v
MURDER NEAR WASHINGTON
Well Known Virginian Killed by p'arm
Hand
Washington, Oct. 11. Fred Spring
man, formerly president and principal
owner of one of the largest express
transfer companies in Washington,
was found murdered in a barn near his
home in Prince George county, Mary
land, today. Harry W. Silbrook, a
21 -year-old farm hand, formerly of
Maine, was arrested charged with the
murder. Springman once' had con
tracts for delivering and collecting
mall in every section of the United
States. Springman, who was GS years
o'd, lived on a. farm near Chesapeake
Junction, several, miles east of this
city. He is said to have been the
first mail contractor who used screen
wagons, now common in the postal
service ia. cities. He fought with the
First Virginia Cavalry during the Civil
War, following which he helped to re
organize Troop A; the President's
Guard, which later Decame part of
the District of Columbia Militia. The
family is well-known here. Ernest
Springman, a son, lives at Big Spring,
Texas, another son is a circus owner,
and two other sons are in the gov
ernment departments.
Springman and 'Silbrook quarreled
this morning. Later Silbrook return
ed from the barn to the uouse, accord
ing to the family, and suggested that
they carry the aged man in from the
barn. Silbrook whose arrest followed,
said that whatever he may have done
during the quarrel was in self-defense.
FLOOD DAMAGES $1,000,000.
Reports About Drowning of Twenty
Navajo Turn Out False.
Denver, Oct. 11. Communication
with the principal towns in the flood-
swept districts of southwestern Colo
rado and northwestern Mexico were
re-established today. It became ap
parent that the damage will not be
as heavy as expected.
None of the principal towns report
serious loss and advices reaching them
from outlying points minimize the de
struction in the ranch country. The
Rio Grande Southern Railroad has suf
fered heavy damage, rough estimates
placing the loss at approximately $1,
000,000. Rumors of heavy loss of life were
apparently set at rest today. The re
ports of the drowning of 20 Navajos
Indians' at Shiprock agency in New
Mexico were officially denied today. ,
SNOW IN MONTANA.

Storm Traffic Delayed.
Pocatello, Idaho, Oct. 11. South

Aa '' to Inheritance Mattamuskeet
; urainage other Decisions :
(Special Star Telegram.)
1 Raleigh, N. O., Oct.1 '11. In Wells
vs. Wells from Duplin cdunty, the Su
preme Court makes a ruling as to in
heritance that is of special Interest to
the profession and laity as welL
; W, D. Wells died leaving an estate
valued at S50.000 and left a widow, a
mother, two brothers and two sisters
J:ving.. All Agreed that the widow re
celve one-half the estate as ner por
tion. The contention arose over
whether, the mother alone should in
herit the remainder of the estate as
next of kin or whether the mother and
the brothers and sisters all should
share . equally. The, trial judge ruled
in favor of the latter contention, "ut
tne supreme court reverses this de
cision holding that the mother alone
inherits. , ,
However if there had been no widow,
the mother and brothers and sisters
would have inherited equally.
Another case of special interest is
H. C. Carter et al., vs. Mattamuskeet
Lake Drainage . Commissioners, in
which the Drainage Commissioners
win through an affirmation of, the find
ing of the court below in refusing a
petition, Jot an injunction to restrain
the commissioners from issuing $100,
000 additional bonds to meet interest
and other expenses over and above
the original $500,000 bonds provided to
carry through this great . drainage
scheme to prepare for cultivation of
50,000. acres-of lake bed and adjacent
swamp lands. This decision means
that the worJc at installing the machin
ery for this work will be resumed at
once, to be pushed as spedily as pos
sible. . ..
The suit involved the invalidity of a
special act of the last Legislature au
thorizing an additional $100,000 bonds
for expenses that Carter and other
land owners insisted they could not be
burdened with. The court' held that
they must pay their part of this as
sessment and . that they can at the
same time protest and. bring suit for
recovery of any part of it that may
not be needed.
-Another notable case is that of
Leah Hinton alias Mrs. Rochelle, of
Goldsboro, who was sentenced to
serve eight months on the roads or
leave the county, for selling whiskey.
She left the county, went to Wilson
and after eight months returned to
Goldsboro,' when she was taikcn into
custody to- serve the sentence. She
insisted that her staying out of the
county eight months released her
from the sentence. The court holds
that sne must now serve the sentence.
The Supreme Court delivered 18
opinions this afternoon - in appeals
pending. The list follows: Carter
vs. Drainage Commissioners, Hyde,
affirmed; Liverman vs. S. Cohoon,
