naval officers, of which Admiral Rodgers
is president, appointed under the terms
of the last naval appropriation act, to
consider the propriety cf transferring the
naval station at Port Royal, S. C., to
Charleston, is to meet in a few days, the

though the Naval Appropriation Act leaves
it discretionary with the board to re
move the station at Port Royal, it may bo
stated that the decision on that point is
foregone, the lack of facilities at Port
Royal and the dangers from high water
at that point having already determined

-THE NRWB ANL) OBBKUVBK, SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE 30. 1900
SPEECHESBY AYCDCK
Has Made Nearly a 100, Ad
dressed 75,000 People.
They Are so Eager to Hear Him He Can Get
Li tie Rest. Blackburn Dodges
Claude Kitehin.
(Special to News and Observer.)
Gastonia, N. C., June 29. —Mr. Aycock
did not make any speech yesterday. It is
the first rest he has had in some time.
He has traveled over four thousand miles
by rail and one thousand by buggy. He
has made nearly a hundred speeches, and
about seventy-five thousand people have
heard him. He has traveled from Mur
phy to Manteo: Today ho spoke at Dallas
to five hundred people. He is hoarse, but
his voice clears up as he proceeds.
Mr. S. L. Patterson has heard him
make twenty-five speeches and he de
clared that his speech today was the
best he has yet made; but it is evident
that tic is tired and must favor himself.
Tho stand was erected on the north
side of the court house ami the audience
sat In the grove. Mr. S. J. Durham, of
Bessemer City, introduced Mr. Patterson.
Mr. Patterson spoke at some length and
was listened to with close attention. At
the close of his speech L. M. Hoffman,
of Dallas, introduced Mr. Aycock.
Mr. Aycock spoke about two hours. No
where has he had a more appreciative au
dience. Everywhere there is the most
eager expectancy depicted on the coun
tenances of his listeners, and they are
never disappointed, for no matter what
the crowd and conditions they always
get the best he lias in his shop. *
There has been an effort on foot to get
this great campaigner to speak here to
night, but bo positively refused, as he
has resolved henceforth not to make more
than one speech a day. Nevertheless it
was given out last night when Claude
Kitehin spoke here and published in the
papers today. So they put him in a car
riage and brought him back this evening.
He went immediately to bed and staid
there till nearly time to speak. He made
another great speech tonight in the wcll
iilled opera house.
Everybody praises the grX-at speech
made by Claude Kitehin last night. To
day he went to King’s Mountain to meet
Spencer Blackburn in a Joint discussion,
but that wily fox did not turn up, so
the people had two good speeches, one by
Kitehin and one bv E. Y. Webb, who
had come to take Mr. Kitehin into his
county tomorrow.
Mr. Kitehin is making a great campaign.
Mr. Blackburn stopped at another place
down the road, not to speak, but to dodge,
it is supposed, and look the vestibule I<>
Gastonia tonight. He is going to Dallas
tomorrow to join either Butler or Thomp
son, where they can have things all their
own way. The Populists and Republicans
county convention meet there tomorrow,
botli by accident, of course.

GOVERNMENT AID FAVORED.
To Industrial Education in the South--Especi
ally For the Negroes.
(By the Associated Press.)
Ga pon Springs, W. Va.. June 29. —At the
closing session of the Educational Con
ference, Herbert Welsh, of Philadelphia,
presented a resolution favoring extending
Government aid to industrial education
in the South among both races in co
operation with work now done by the
State and private benevolence. Many
prominent educators favored the proposi
tion on the grounds that the general
Government owed an especial duty to the
colored people of the South and that the
task was too great for the instrumental
ities now employed. Hon. W. L. Wilson
opposed the proposition, partly on consti
tutional grounds. The subject was re
ferred to the executive committee to re
port at the next conference. An impor
tant measure adopted by the conference
was the naming of the committee to
wham the public may appeal for informa
tion in regard to the worthiness of schools
asking aid. The committe consists of
J. L. M. Curry, Washington, I). C.; Rev.
G. H. Dickerman, New Haven; R. Fulton
Cutting. New York. Rev. Mr. Dickerman
was asked to continue his work ns field
agent of the conference for another year
and will further Investigate school condi
tions in the South.

Pekin.
THE CHINESE SKIES BRIGHTER.
So it Seems to McKinloy, Off For Rest, But Not
to Others.
(By the Associated Press.)
Washington. June 29. —The President is
quitting Washington for his Canton home
tonight full of confidence that the situa
tion in China has improved, though it is
fair to say that all members of his offi
cial family Io not agree with him in that
conclusion. Indeed the day’s news, limit
ed though it was to a single cablegram
from Admiral Kempff, and the preparation
of instructions to General Chaffee set
out nothing calculated to strengthen the
hopes of the friends of the foreign Min
isters and the missionaries, who have now
been silent for full two weeks. KeniplT’s
cablegram was a disappointment in his
confession that he knew nothing of the
whereabouts of the missing people, and
there are many expressions of wonder
that neither that officer nor any of the
naval commanders at Taku have been
ingenious enough to establish some sys
tem of spying so as to learn within two
weeks what has taken place in Pekin.
Still, it is said at the Navy Depart
ment (hat Admiral Kempff apparently has
done ns well as any of the other com
manders in getting the news, and that
it would be manifestly unfair to pro
nounce criticism upon him until all the
facts develop, if there has been any
fault Admiral Remcy, who should arrive
at Taku within a week, according to the
short message he sent today from Hong
Kong, will make tho fact manifest.
Relative to the interesting story that
an international accord has been arrived
at as to the pro tempore settlement of
the Chincso trouble; State Department
officials say that while the United States
is not a party to such an agreement, if
the European powers and Japan have
come to an understanding on the basis
set out, the result should lie welcomed
by all who have no selfish designs to
satisfy. It is, of course, not yet possible
to predict accurately what attitude the
United States would assume officially to
ward such a combination, nor whether the
Government could be induced to enter
into common agreement except with some
special reservation made necessary by a
desire to preserve the unbroken traditions
of the United States in their relations
with foreign nations.
Secretary Root devoted tho afternoon to
the preparation of instructions to Briga
dier General Chaffee, who has been as
signed to the command of the troops or
dered to China, and after a conference,
(he President approved them wilh only
a few verbal changes which did not change
their general character. Although Secre
tary Root would not make public the text
of General Chaffee’s instructions, he said
that, generally speaking General Chaffee
had been ordered to look out for the
United States’ interest in China, to avoid
entangling alliances, to act concurrently
with the other powers where it was
thought the general interest to do so,
and in a word to continue a policy that,
lias marked the actions of the United
States Government since the beginning of
the Boxer troubles in China. These In
structions will he telegraphed to General
Chaffee at San Francisco in order to
reach him before his departure on the
transport Grant Sunday evening. Secre
tary Root said that in case the progress
of events made it necessary it would be
an easy matter to modify General
Chaffee's instructions by cable to Na
gasaki which will be the first port visit
ed by the Grant after her departure from
San Francisco. Secretary Root was ask
ed if any more troops would be ordered
to China, and he replied "Not yol,” but
Intimated that the further action of the
War Department in that matter would
be governed entirely by the exigencies
of the situation.
Today’s instructions are supplementary
to his original orders "to proceed to
Pekin byway of Nagasaki and Taku.”
The follow ing statement is published
the War Department:
"The War Department is in dally receipt
of letters and telegrams from all sec
tions of the country tendering the ser
vices of individuals and organizations in
the event of war between the United
States and China. To all of these there
can he but one reply. By the act of
March 2nd, 1899, the President was au
thorized to raise a force of not more than
35,000 volunteers, which volunteer force
"shall continue in service only during
the necessity therefor and not later than
June, 1901.” And by the act of April
22nd, 1899, the volunteer army of the
United States can be maintained only
during the existence of war. and shall
be raised and organized “only after Con
gress has, or shall have, authorized tlie
President to raise such a force or to call
Into the actual service of the United
States the militia of the several States.”
"It. therefore rests with Congress, and
not with the President to the
volunteer force, and while the War De
partment cannot be other than gralifiei
at these prompt and spontaneous evi
dences of patriotism on the part of the
people, it can only reply to each and
,'everv such (ember of assistance that
there is no authority in law for the ac
ceptance of any volunteer troops other
than those now in tho service."

"We, the Viceroys of Nankin and
Hankow, in order properly to provide for
(he protection of misisonartes and for
eign merchants in the Southern and East
ern parts of the Chinese Empire, have
ordered the Governor of Shanghai to sub
mit to all the consuls and to combine with
them in the following agreements:
"Article I.—The measures wo have
taken have in view the protection of
lives and properties of misionaries and
of foreign and Chinese merchants without
distinction.
"Article 2. —It is understood on both
sides that the Shanghai concession shall
be protected by the foreign powers.
"Article B. —The Viceroy of Nankin
and the Viceroy of Hankow formally en
gage to protect tho properties of mis
sionaries and foreign merchants in the

ships are lying they are authorized to
remain at anchorage on condition that
Ihe sailors remain on board.
"Article 5. —Should the foreign powers
send warships to the Yang Tse Kiang

Governors, the latter are not to be re
sponsible for the misdeeds or massacres
resulting; and China shull not be called
upon to pay indemnity.
"Article 6.—Foreign warships shall not

undertake not to permit their warships
to approach or to anchor in the neigh

lie must not be suspected.
"Article B—ln8 —In places thus far devoid of
1 loops missionaries and foreign tavelcrs

"Article 9. —The protection of the Shan
gliai concession shall lie carried o it. with
the greatest calmness and with an ab
sence of ostentation; for, in the present
excited condition,of the people, the slight
est alarm might provoke disorders, of
which evil minded persons could take ad
vantage to instigate dangerous ugitu
tlon.
"if other action Is taken than that here
expounded, it will be impossible .to pro
tect tho lives and properties of natives
and foreigners.
"The consuls have not yet signed tho
agreement, but are awaiting authorization
from their respective governments.”
The Viceroys conclude by instructing
the Minister, in the interest of the va
rious provinces of Southeast China, to
submit this arrangement as quickly as
possible to the French Minister of For
eign Affairs and to beg him to accept it.
In formation received apart from the
cablegram to the Chinese Minister shows
that the consuls have not yet signed.
