GERMANS DEMAND THE POSSES ' SION OF THE RAILROAT FROM TIEN TSIN TO PEKIN RUSSIA AGREES TO SURRENDER IT TO THEM.

There is the gravest unrest in the two Kwang provinces and precau tions have been taken at Kow Loon."

By imperial orders, by Chinese troops, artillery stores, which would regularly follow the Grand canal, are now diverted to Shen Si province by way of Han Kow. CLAIMS OF THE GERMAN PRESS. Berlin, Oct. 5. Following the cue of the foreign office the semi-official pa pers are endeavoring to represent the policy of Germany as triumphant and consistent and to conceal the fact that Germany has (been forced by the reser vations In the answers of the powers to her proposal to abandon her demand for the giving up of the guilty. These journals are now adopting the usual plan. The Berliner Post and the oth ers represent that Emperor Kwang Su's telegram meets the demands of the ! German note of September 18. The . independent papers, however, freely : admit that there has been a trans formation in Germany's policy. They point out thatf the note entirely aban dons the proposal as to the surrender of the guilty as a condition precedent to diplomatic intercourse with China. The Freisinige Zeitung observes: "Emperor William's telegram Is in it self a resumption of intercourse. Pun ishment by the emperor of China cor responds with the standpoint which the United States government took from the beginning in contrast with Count Von Bulow's note' Despite the utterances of the inspired press official circles are unable to con jceal the logical hiatus between the two I notes . A high official of the foreign j office remarked today that Great Brit - ain's answer was no longer essential . inasmuch as Germany's later note su jperseded the former one. The Berliner Tageblatt developing this idea says: "England is no longer forced to choose between the United States and I Germany." GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP. Wteaton, HI., Oct 5.

NORTH COURT SQUARE. CONCESSIONS TO MINERS Individual Operators Approve of 10 Per Cent. Increase in Wages. Railroads Believed to Have Granted Lower Bates. Italian Non-Union Mine Workers At tacked by Women. Pelted With Stones as They Were Re tnrcing From the Colliery. THE LAST OF THE THIRTY-NINE READING COMPANY MINES CLOSED DOWN YESTERDAY STRIKERS VERY CONFIDENT. Scran ton, Pa., Oct. 5. The feature of the day in the strike situation was the meeting of the Individual coal op erators' association here today. It was a thoroughly representative gathering. The committee representing the asso ciation that went to New York recent ly is supposed to have submitted its re port. It was given out that the meet ing decided to approve of the 10 per cent advance offered by the larger con cerns. Although members of the association would not admit it there is no doubt the association received concessions with regard to coal rates. Strike Lead er Dilcher immediately telegraphed Mitchell apprising him of the news. He said the action of the' independent operators meant that the coal carrying roads had awakened to the situation. He thought victory for the strikers was near. ATTACKED BY WOMEN. Hazleton, Pa., Oct. 5. Bight Italians employed on the night shift of the Cal vin Pardee and company colliery at Lattimer, were attacked on the public road leading from that place to Holly wood early this morning by twenty-five women who had marched from Milnes- ... ville. The women waited to attack-the men working in the Lattimer mine as the passed along the noad which leads to their homes in Hollywood. A few of the women were armed ith clubs, but most of them carried stones of all sizes in their aprons. The first non striking miners- to leave the colliery were the little band of eight Italians. They saw the women on the road ahead of them and suspecting an attack crossed the field in an endeavor to avoid them. The women, however, were on the alert, and they also cross ed the field and, overtaking the men hurled showers of stones at them . The workmen did not attempt to defend themselves but ran away and were soon out of the reach of the fury of the ex cited women. One man received a se vere cut on the head, while several oth ers were struck by pieces of rocks but were not injured. The women returned to their homes, satisfied with their de monstration.
