Control of the Caarpber Prefect. Formosa now controls the camphor H product of the world," says United States Consul Davidson at Tamsui, in | a recent dispatch to the State Department at Washington. The Japanese annual production, says the consul, nas dsrlndled to 300,000 pounds; the Chinese yield has never exceeded 220,000 pounds, while the Formosan supply. increasing yearly, reached 7,000,000 pounds in 1895, and the yield for the last four years has ranged over E 0,000,000 pounds, f To take full advantage of this favorable situation, the government has placed the manufacture under its conv trd and made the sale of camphor a || monopoly, with two apparent- objects J' In view; first, increased re-enue, and, second, a more complete control o?er J the camphor forests.

The department has also received an appeal from Li Hnng Chang, the Chinese peace envoy, to have the allied army stop their advance at Tnng Chow, at which place, he says, they will be met by high officials of the Chinese government, who will be empowered to negotiate an armistice. A special meeting of the cabinet was held before noon at which the Chinese sitnation was thoronguly discussed. The several cables received from Minister Conger and Consul Goodnow with the appeal of Li Hung Chang that an armnistice be arranged were carefully considered. An answer was prepared to this appeal in which it is understood this government agrees to armistice for the purpose of relieving the ministers, the members of the legations and the people under their protection, either at the inner gate of the city or the outer gate, whichever the officers in command may designate, after communicating with the ministers themselves. If they think arrangements can be made by which their safety would be assured in moving from the British ! legation to the inside gate, which is about 200 or 300 Tarda distant, this government will agree to an armistice for that purpose and after Minister Conger has been safely delivered this government will for a specified time cease hostilities with a view to arranging terms of peace. department issues statement. The department of state gives out the following: "The department of state received late yesterday afternoon, August 15, a cipher dispatch from Consul General Goodnow, dated the same day, which, on being deciphered, was found to embody an undated message frog^ Minister Conger transmitted from Tsi Nan on the 15tb.

"Remet." BISHOP TURNER WEDS. Takes as His Helpmeet the Widow of Bishop Wayman, of Baltimore. A Baltimore dispatch' says: Au interesting and romantic wedding took place at noon, Thursday, when Bishop Turner, the distinguished colored <|ivine of Atlanta, Ga., led to the altar Harriet E. Wayman, widow of JBisbop A. W. Wayman, who was perhaps the most distinguished colored man who ever lived in Maryland. Bishop Turner and Harriet Wayman have been friends for many years, and he was a frequent visitor to the Wayman home daring the life of Bishop Wavman. When that distinguished minister of the African Methodist Episcopal church died in 1895, Bishop Trrrner was one of the several prominent colored dignitaries from all sections of the United States who participated in the fnneral services and also delivered an address. Since that time the feeling of friendship between Bishop Turner and the widow has become more pronounced, and finally culminated in their union as man and wife. Bishop J. A. Handy, of Baltimore, performed the ceremony, and was assisted by Bishop B. F. Lee; of Ohio. The bride is about 60 years of age, and is a woman of culture, having received a classical and musical education. She was raised in the family of the late John Degruchy, of Baltimore, and was born free. She was married when very young to John H. Green, who died in 1864. She was married to Bishop Wayman the day after he was elected to that office was his companion and helpmate in his clerical labors. Bishop Turner and his bride left for Asbury Park, N. J., after the ceremony, and after a short stay there will go south. GROWTH OF THE SOUTH. Many few Industrie* Established Daring the Past Week.

At the second day's session of the liberty congress of the American i League of Anti-Imperialists at India- i nopolis the candidacy of William J. i Brpan for president was indorsed. The resolutions to that effect were read to the convention by Colonel Charles R. Codman, of Massachusetts, who moved their adoption, after stating that the entire committee of twentyfive had endorsed them. The convention, however, did not adopt the platform submitted by the resolutions committee without a prolonged and heated debate. Thomas M. Osborne, of Auburn, N. Y.f leader of the "third ticket" movement, offered An amendment to strike out the ' endorsement of Br jan, and his amendment was vigorously supported by ) several delegates, but when the previous question was ordered less than a . score voted against the Bryan endorsement. * The vote was viva voce and its exact result will never be known; but the ' sentiment of the convention was shown as bring in favor of the indorsement of Bryan as the most effective manner , of checking the alleged imperialistic policy of the administration. The most vigorous opponents of the Bryan pronouncement in the platform were conspicuous members of the "national" or third ticket convention who were also admitted as delegates to the anti-imperialist congress. They were #ed by Thomas M. Osborne and advocated the nomination of a third ticket on the theory that their followers, while opposed to President McKinley, were not prepared to accept Mr. Bryan < on the Kansas City platform, 1 The following resolution, proposed < by W. 8. Holden, of Chicago, was added to the platform as reported: "Resolved, That in declaring that the princinciples of the declaration of independence apply to all men, . this congress means to include the negro race in America as well as the I PilininAD Wfl it ?r> Pa/Wit A ftl] AflFoTt,?_ JL <IJ|/lUVe? f?

Scott, of Cairo, 111., spoke ! strongly in favor of this resolution, claiming that if it was ignored Bryan would lose thousands of negro votes. By a rising vote the congress adopted a resolution expressing appreciation of the services of George 8. Boutwell in the cause of anti-imperialism. The congress concluded with an address at Tomlinson hall by Chas. A. Towne of Minnesota. Mr. Towne was greeted by a large and enthusiastic audience. After the adoption of the resoltions endorsing Bryan the representatives of the third party movement met and selected Thos. M. Osborne of Auburn, 1 N. 1., for permanont chairman and Everett V.

Caleb Power* Asserts His Innocence and Claims He I* a Martyr. Qaleb Powers, convicted of complicity in the Goebel murder, has issued a statement, in part as follows: **To the Public: I am asked my opinion concerning my trial and the verdict of the jury. Could I have but one opinion? Can any fair minded man or woman of this state have but , one? That one of the greatest judicial farces known to history has been enacted here in my trial, under the forms law, no well informed mac can doubt. "Innocencj is no shield with $100,000 and the methods of Campbellism against you. The rectitude of one's past life counts for naught. They say Taylor was guilty because he was at -bis office, and I am guilty because I was away from mine.

(Signed) "Remey" DOCTOR RUNS AMUCK. Crazed By Liquor, He Kills a Woman and Two Men Before Being: Exterminated. A special from Leavenworth, Kas., Baj8: At Farley, a small town across the river in Missouri Monday, Dr. Stnrley Harrington, a physician of Farley, drunk and imagining fancied wrongs, killed .Tames Wallace, his ancje, a wealthy farmer; Mrs. William Wallace, Harrington's mother-in-law, and J. P. Dillingham, sheriff of Piatt county, who tried to arrest him, and was in turn shot dead by Harry Dillingham, the sheriff's son. Before he was cornered by the sheriff's posse, Harrington held up the clerk of a store at the point of bis revolver and exchanged'-phots with the clerk, firing into a crowd of spectators. Harrington's twelve-year-old danghter was a forced witness of the different stages of the tragedy, the physician taking her with him in his buggy as he went from place to place on his bloody errand. Saturday night Harrington quarreled "with bis wife and drove her from home, threatening her life. He had had some words with James Wallace over a line fence and had been on a protracted spree. Mrs. Harrington had not returned home Monday morning and HarringtoD, re| airing to Wallace's home, demanded to know where she could be found. Wallace professed to have no knowledge of her whereabouts, whereat Harrington whipped out a revolver and shot him twice, once in the head and once through the heart. Leaving his victim as be lay Harrington drove half a mile to the homo of Mrs. William Wallace and again demanded to know of bis wife. To Mrs. Wallace's answer that she knew nothing of Mrs. Harrington, the physician shot her dead before she could make outcry. Sheriff Dillingham and his posse had been following Harrington closely, and as the murderer emerged from the store he stood face to face with his pursuers. Harrington instantly raised bis weapon and 6red at the sheriff, the ball entering Dillingham's forehead. Harrington, a moment later, stepped over the body of the dying sheriff and started to run. He had gone but a few rods when a Bhot from the revolver of Harry Dillingham, son of the sheriff brought him to the ground. Both Sheriff Dillingham and Harrington died within a few minutes. The cause of the shooting is said to be trouble caused by Harrington having been expelled from the Masonic lodge of Farley. He was expelled some time ago and charged his uncle, James Wallace, and another man with being instrumental in the proceedings.

MISS EDNA ELLIS, Hlggfnsport, Ohio* THE WOMEN OF CHINA. Remarkable (astaaces of Their Derotioa to Hosboada or Relatloas. Woman's influence in China is greater than is commonly supposed. Records of the Flowery Kingdom are full of examples of women famous for their learning, heroism and high principle. Sometimes women achieve absolute power over the household, for there is a popular saying, "She eats rice with her husband," which is used to describe the rule of the female tyrant. The most astonishing instance of feminine power to-day is, of course, the career of the Empress Dowager. As an instance of the Empress Dowager's power, it may be recalled that she dejwsed her strongest vizier, Prince Kung in 1885 by a mere decree in the Pekin tlazette because "he overrated his importance." In common with all other nations, the women of China represent the most fervent religious element They are said to support enthusiastically the Boxers' movement and to be fighting with passion to help rid the country of the missionaries. That the women of China do not lack courage is proved by the fact that they sometimes seek suicide as relief from unhappy marriages and uncongenial husbands would frequently be murdered .were It not for special punishments, "ignominious and slow," devised for all women who attempt homicide. The mere existence of this law proves the necessity for it. Again, not. long ago fifteen young girls of Canton threw themselves into the river to escape from marrying the husbands chosen for them. Two other recent examples prove the devotion of the Chinese women of high degree. A daughter of the Chinese Minister to London, Ivwo-Sung-Taon, was married at the age of 17. When her husband died she tried to commit suicide out of grief, and would eat nothing but gold leaf, seeking thereby to induce death. It failed to poison her, and she then starved to death. Her sister-in-law, Mrs. Kwo, a sister of the Marquis Tseng, tried to follow her husband to the land of spirits, but failing in her attempt at suicide she finally took compassion on her children, agreed to live and managed her father-in-law's property while he was in London.
