WO TING-FANG RECALLED
New Chinese Minister- to United
States Will Be Chang Tin Tang.
UNIQUE FIGURE ET PUBLIC LITE
his family Is In this country. Th new
minister, Chan Tin Tang, from April,
1898, to February. 183, was consul general
at San Francisco and was for a long
time attached to the Chinese legation some
years ago.
The Btate department has not yet been
advised of the appointment of Dr. Wu's
successor.
1'roteet front Washington Probably
Saved Ilia Head Just After
the Boxer Re
bellion. f

WASHINGTON. Aug. IX For the second
time In his diplomatic) career, Dr. Wn
Ting-Fang, the Chinese minister to the
United Slate, has been recalled from the
Washington mission and has been directed
to proceed home, where it Is expected he
will be assigned to other work.
Ir. Wu's successor, whose eeleetlon was
announced recently at the Chinese legation,
will be Chang Yin Tang, known as a "pro
gressive" In Chinese political affairs and a
man who has seen dlplomatlo service 111
India, England, Thibet and In the United
States. He Is regarded generally as a man
of wide experience.
Minister Wu Is now In Peru, to whl-Jh
place he alaor is aeredlted. He has been
there for several months and the latest ad
vices from him indicated his intention of
remaining for a month longer. Dr. Wu's
retirement from Washington removes a
picturesque figure from the diplomatic life
in the capital. Probably no foreigner U
better known In this country than he, for
he is a good talker and his pungent wit and
bright sallies have been heard and read
with interest at many places.
During his second term In Washington,
which dates from March, 1908, the minister
has attracted attention by his advocaoy of
vegetarianism, which he exploited both
publicly and privately. Dr. Wu believes an
adherence to a vegetable diet 4ould pro
long life and during his present ministry
he said he inteuded to live to be 100 years
old.
During the Boxer troubles In China In
the summer of 19U) Minister Wu, In con
junction with Yuan IShal Kal, then taotat
of Shanghai, was successfu: In getting
through a message to tbe American min
ister, Mr. Conger, who, with his colleagues,
were in the legation compound In Peking
and whose fate was a mutter of great
concern to the Stats department. An
answer from M. Conger demonstrated
that he had "received the message sent
by the Btate department and all was well
with the legation officials. It Is pointed
out as a peculiar coincidence that Wu
should be recalled at this time so soon
after the downfall of Tuan Shal Kal, his
friend.
I'nlted States Saves His Head.
Wu's sympathies were with the United
States during the Boxer troubles and this
led to his recall. Only an Intimation from
this government that his beheading would
be offensive to the United States, It Is
believed, prevented his summary death at
,the hands of the Chinese authorities. Kino
Dr. Wu has been in Washington, serving
his second term, there' have been repeated
reports that he was to be recalled, and bis
answer to these with a ahrug of the shoul
der, usually was "Perhaps It may be true.
The government may have something else
for me to do."
There is considerable speculation as to
the reasons which have animated the Chi
nese government in directing hla return,
but further than the announcement that
he la to have another assignment at
Peking, nothing seems to be known. I.
Is expected that the minister will return

Omaha Men Said
to Be Implicated
in Gigantic Fraud
Two Hundred Thousand Acres of Rich
Coal Lands in Alaska Grabbed
Through Dummies.
DENVER, Aug. 11 Within a month a
hearing will begin In Seattle, Wash., that
government officials hers sssert will dis
close the proof Of glgantlo frauds In con
nection with coal lands In Alaska. The
faots pointing to the alleged frauds are
known to Secretary Balllnger and Fred
Dennett, commissioner 'of the general land
office. That mors than 300,000 aores of
rich coal lands In Alaska, some of them
having veins sixty-five feet In thickness,
have been filed upon by dummy entry
men procured through agents of six large
corporations, the land office has ample
evidence to prove, according to Information
made publlo tonight. The view of Commis
sioner Dennett, It Is given out. Is that all
entries found to bs fraudulent should be
cancelled at once.
The government's Interest lies In the wish
to have the great Alaskan coal fields
opened to supply coal for the ships of tho
navy stationed In the Pacific. It Is said the
opening of the Alaskan deposits will give
the United States control of the commerce
of the Pacltlo ocean by reason of It abil
ity to supply fuel from a held almost inexhaustible.
One of the coal companies Involved In
the alleged fraud Is located In Seattle,
Omaha and Chicago. The so-called dummy
entrymen were recruited principally from
the docks of Seattle, the mines of Butte.
Mont., and from the laboring classes of Chi
cago. In many instances, according to
government Inspectors, these men never
aaw or heard of each other, although they
were described in the filing papers as
members of a corporation organized for
developing sections of the Alaskan fields.

LYNCHING BEE KNOCKED OUT
Feat area of aa Attack on Jail aad
the sleaas of Beatlag
Same.
At Newport. Ark., on Sunday night, two
men, the sheriff of the county and one of
his deputies, stood before the jail and faced
a mob of 1.100 uegroes. Behind them In the
Jail was Qui Currte, a desperate black, who
a few hqurs before, had literally cut the
heart out of the body of a rival In the af
fections of a woman of his race. The mob
desired his blood. With Currle In the jail
were sixteen men accused of murder, sent
to Newport brrause of the masslveness and
strength of the jail there, and twenty pris
oners accused of minor offenses.
As the hoarse yelling of the mob In
creased the murderers threatened an out
break. Co-operation with the mob might
mean freedom; at worst it would be speedy
death. Then It was that a sharp line of
demarcation was drawn between the two
groups of prisoners. The twenty might
perhaps have broken crriain laws, but they
still felt their Interes; In such a crlais to
be on the side of lhe preservation of order
and the support of the authorities. Thev
put out the lights of the jail, and formed a
guard, standing over the murderers to pre
vent a concerted effort of the sixteen to
escape; and the news of their fidelity was
conveyed to the little army of two out
side as they fsced the thousand.
A white leader of the mab moved out of
the dense maxs and entered the Jallyard,
calling to his followers to come after him.
Sheriff Neal leaned his rifle against the
wall and walked forward to meet him with
bure hands. A tremendous blow on the
jaw stretched the mob leader senseless; the
sheriff moved leisurely back and picked up
his rifle. Then bis forces advanced, and
the mob was ordered to give way. It did.
The retreat became a rout. The would-be
lynchers were driven from the city, and the
little army of two returned to the Jail,
where the twenty minor offenders. In the
darkness, stood over the sixteen murderers
and insurrectionists.
The age of romance is not dead. What Is
there upon the pages of fiotlon to surpass
this slegs for lurid contrasts, splendid oour-
age and strange Interplay of motive T It
would require Rudyard Kipling's sympathy
with alien races conjoined with the
gloomy yet titanic genlua of certain Rus
sian tellers of tales to do It Justice. Kt.

Second Man Arrested in
New York Stock Swindle
NEW YORK, Aug. IS There was a new
arrest today in the circle of complexities
surrounding young Donald Perseh, the not
broker, who Is charged with the larceny
of !U0,0u0 worth of copper stocUs put up
as collateral with the Windsor Trust oom
pany to secure a loan of tfiO.000 made by
M. M. Joyce, a broker for F. Augustua
Hetnie.. W. L. Clark, another note broker,
but representing Joyce, who Is the com
plainant against Persch, was arrested In
the district attorney s office charged with
the larceny of 210.000, said to be part of
the profits from the curb sales of the
stock, which Joyce supposed safe In the
vaults of the Windsor Trust company, until
he was astonished to buy part of the
shares back In the open market. Clark
was later released on lll.OuO ball. His ar
rest Is bsscd on two checks drawn In his
favor by Persch, on for 1WS.75 and the
other for tl0,0u9.2.
The checks were given a few days after
Ibe loan bad been .closed.
Earlier In the day Persch, freed on a writ
of habeas corpus, had been promptly re
arrested, charged this time with the
specific larceny of 240,000, which the dis
trict attorney's office sets as his share
of the profit of the swindle. Ball was this
time fixed at 2o0.0u0, which Persch failed to
secure today. Persch's counsel was lndlg-
nsnt at his rearrest.
This is the most remarkable case I have
ever heard of, he said.
"I Intend to open up the floodgates and
will see that several men are swept away
If I find It necessary to save this boy. He
bas been the tool for men higher up. He
knows of the transaction. If these accusa
tions are not withdrawn I will give the
district attorney evidence that will create
a sensation In th financial world."
This statement by counsel for Perach
agrees with the opinion of Mr. Nott of the
district attorney's office, who has said
plainly that he expects to uncover a wide
spread conspiracy to sell hypothecated
stocks her and In other cities.
Nebraska's Municipal Problems
The Commercial Clubs and similar organ
izations scattered over Nebraska must be not
only the directing force but the business custo
dian of the municipality.
Organization is the chief impulse of this
century; the achievement of any given purpose
with the leaet loss of time and energy.
Our cities are too young to have yet meas
ured the chief real obstacles to be overcome in
their development. We have not yet evolved a
coherent public opinion through which the state
as a state can "find voice." We are de
pending largely upon economic accident, and
personal initiative, for our progress along these
channels in which we have all a common
interest.
The quickest and the cheapest way to build
a state is to build it by associated effort. When
that is realized it will be acknowledged that the
firstN6tep is the federation in some form of
the commercial clubs of Nebraska.
Such a commercial federation would have
to be developed as expediency suggested. It
could start with no cut and dried program. But
it would begin, and labor, and be guided by a
mastering idea.
Such an affirmation would foster a watch
ful 6pirit of state pride, an active conception of
civic honor, a respect for the state, and the
cities of the state, equal to the respect we each
feel for our family and our home.
Civic pride lies at the bottom of the city
beautiful. Every promoter is a booster. Few
boosters are promoters. "The Story of Nebras
ka," is being continued each week in The Sun
day Bee and from time to time will speak of the
different commercial clubs of the smaller cities,
what they have accomplished and what they
hope to accomplish.
