J., where he will conduct revivals during December. Billy" Sunday's first week here has been a busy one. His forty-two-centl meter guns have so far been rtalned upon negligent and selfish parents, graft ers, religious shams and evils that threaten In youth. In addition lie has defended his- methods against assaults by clergy and laymen made In local papers. Work in Factories. Over 60.000 people In shops, factories, stores and offices .have heard Sunday's workers preach, while thousands more have attended the hundreds of prayer meetings belpg held in Syracuse homes every morning. Bunday himself is delighted "with the prospects here. "You're a nice bunch of people,' he said tonight. "Most generally it takes us two weeks to feel at home, but In Syracuse we were at home the day after we arrived." Threatened opposition on the part of Unitarians, Unlversallsts and Congrega tlonaltsts has so far failed to material ize. Those opposed to him are maintain ing an attitude of ''armed neutrality" and "watchful waiting." The Congrega tionallsts have raised a fund to fight him If he attacks their creed.- But one attack upon lilm has been made and this was ignored. It cami from Rev. John J.

Nov. 6.-Fifteen of the eight een provinces of China are said by the government to bavo voted In favor of a monarchy. The minister of foreign affairs, Lu Cheng Hsiang, made this statement to M. Obata, secretary of the Japanese lega tion, in explaining why. In Its opinion the government could not legally defer the decision of the people concerning the proposal to re-establish a monarchy. The foreign minister contended China was misrepresented by reports that hasty action was contemplated and pointed to the advanced stage which the elections already had reached. He assured M. Obata, the Chinese government was con sidering the friendly advice of the powers in the same spirit In which it was offered. It is reported from a reliable source that the government may request the council of state, acting as parliament, to legal- i lie a postponement of the monarchical restoration should it finally be decided upon. The French. British and Russian min isters have not asked China to. explain ! Its reply, as It was considered by them to be satisfactory. Yankton Girl is Shot hy Hunter YANKTON, S.

Thlg len and James Miller, American doc tors, and two chauffeurs, A. L. Wil son and J. B. Tylant, whom Villa re ported to have been shot, arrived here early today from Villa Verde, twenty-two miles south, in Sonora. Weary from long marching a-foot and suffering from the nervous strain of having been thrice con demned to die by Villa, the four Americans almost dropped in their tracks after crossing the line and were at once put to bed. Thlgpen said there were taken for spies when they arrived Wednesday on the Agna Piieta battlefield without creden tials. Villa declared them Carranxa agents de spite their protests that they had come to aid Mi wounded lying in windrows after tho terrific hall of bullets and shells from tho Agua Prleta garrison, and the order for their Immediate execution was rescinded only after Colonel Bracamente of Villa's staff, who knew the doctors, had Interceded for them. They had marched on foot undor heavy guard from Agua Prleta to Villa Verde and arrived Thursday night after Villa, had Informed General Funston and other American army officers that they had been killed by rifle or shell fire from the Carranxa trenches. Again at Villa Verde the following day Villa ordered the men shot and once more IBracamente's Intercession saved them. Apparently to make his statement good, , the ntn said. Villa again sentenced them to death. Then yesterday came the or jder for their release and, for the first 1 time free, they made their way alone to Naco, Arls. Meanwhile, they wore re lieved of their watches and coats by Villa soldiers, while the chief himself confiscated ' the automobiles driven by Pylant and Wilson. Kitchener Goes to Near East and May Leave the War Post LONDON, Nov. 6. The Post says that Earl Kitchener, secretary for war, has been entrusted with an Important mission to the near east and already has de parted from London. "It is generally believed," says the Post, "that Earl Kitchener's business will j necessitate a stay so prolonged that It will be necessary to fill his place at the I war office before long. It is true that he ' has not resigned, but tho Importance of ' his present errand makes It certain that his rcblgnatlon la omy delayed. I "The suggestion has been made that ' Lord Haldane be brought bark to the I war office, but this Is probably un- l founded." Reiteration of the report that Earl Kitchener had placed his resignation as secretary of state for war In the hands of the king has brought forth an official report to the contrry. According to the Pally Graphic, Ekrl Kitchener saw the king Thursday night. as wai announced yesterday at the king's own request. The Graphic, urging the government not to delay dlpclos'ire of the actual facts, suggests that Lord Perby, who Is now In charge of HrltUh recruiting, would make an excellent war minister. The policy of tne British government In respect of both the Dardanelles expedi tion and the Scrblun campaign has been ; subjected to severe criticism In England, end If the statement of the Post Is cor rect the war secretary presumably has ' been sent to the near east to determine by personal Inspection the proper policy for Pvlnsk or to supervise a move of Im portance already decided upon.
