dissenters among the Republican mem
bers, one in the Senate and seven in the
House, yet the really doubtful list is

ing against the action of the Republicans

London, Jan. 5. Ths Times, com
menting editorially this morning upon
the statement of the Cologne Gazette that
since Thursday last negotiations have
been proceding in' London for a Chinese
loan upon the proposed security of the
land tax and a cession of territory, denies
that England has any intention to de
mand territory or to take thejlcad in the
partition of China. It says:
"England's policy, on the contra'y
aims at maintaining the Chinese empire
as a going concern and a vast field for the
extension of trade. In pursuing this pol
icy we arc glad to note that England en
joys the powerful support of the United
States government, as well as the public
opinion of that poi lion of the American
people which is not swayedby blind
jingo denunciations."

ter, Orange trees will in some cases lose
their foliage and where they were in
exposed places in the northern border of
the orange belt, will lose a part of their
tender growth. Owing to the fact, how
ever, that the sap was down, the trees
themselves were able to resist unscathed
even lower, temperature.
The fall crop of tobacco in all parts of
the State was injured badly, Blooms ou
strawberries were killed. Early straw
berries in the northern section were
frozen on the vines and the plants them
selves set back fully six weeks. '
The tendercst garden crops in all sec
tions as far south as Tampa where lack
ing protection by forests, streams or
lakes, were badly injured, but exposed
gardens did not represent more than half
the area in truck, growers having lcarnod,
by experience the wisdom of selecting
well protected spots.
