SALOON EXODUS TAKES
PLACE; BARGAINS PLENTY
SEATTLT, Dec. 26.—Saloonmeu
are getting ready to move baggage
and bag to San Francisco and some!
h.ve already left. After the first
there will be a general clearing om. j
for little hope is attached to the
statement that the prohibition law
is to be appealed to the Unitea
States Supreme Court.
Bargains in the way "of saloon
furnituA are aplenty and to be had
almost for the asking. Many persons
are stocking up a supply of rum.
gin, brandy and whiskey, and prices
are now as low as cost.
One saloon which has made a
specialty of family liquor trade has
on its counters bottles, barrels and
demijohns full of the golden liquor,
and placarded with the announce
ment “No reasonable offer refused"
The wholesalers endeavored to
stem the selling out craze in the
liquor emporiums, but ctJ many
wanted to get rid of their stuff they
had to call a halt.
Some few saloons will maintain
soft drink parlors after January 1,
and ono brewery announces that It.
will engage in the manufacture of
hop beer which will be a substitute
for booze no one can detect from
the real article.
The slump in rents anticipated
on the closing of saloons has not
developed for some reason, and the
demand for stores keeps even pace
with saloons quitting.
AUSTRIAN REPLY ALMOST
READY REPORTED FAVORARLE
WASHINGTON, D. C., Doc. 26.—
The Austrian reply to the Amor
lean Ancona demands, is almost
ready.

and that Austria will comply forth
with with all demands.

sistently urging upon Austria that

ing watched in all neutral countries

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 26.—
Secretary Lansing stated that the
Austrian reply to the United States
note had not been received, but he
had no reason to fear that it would
not contain a concession to all the
demands which the United States
government had insisted upon in tl>e
cause of right and justice.
SUFFRAGE PEOPLE ARE
HOPEFUL OF CONGRESS
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 26.—
The suffragettes are again hopeful.
It is stated that they have since
speaking to members of Congress
discovered that the political influ
ence of the suffrage people is not
underrated.
After the holidays a bitter fight
will occur on the Shipping Bill, al
though the administration antici
pates less trouble in forcing it
through.
The republicans will support the
preparationist proposals of the ad
ministration although they may
probably endeavor to make political
capital out of that support.
The democrats are not united on
the defense plans, many taking the
stand that the government itself
engage in the manufacture of muni
tions, armor plate, cannon, and
build its own ships. A fight on this
is likely, and some interesting de
bates possible. The labor laws
which will obtain attention will be
negligible and the hope that by
filibustering most of these will be
laid on the table is not likely to
make filibustering any less popular
with the Solons who only want a
good excuse to forget all about
labor.

YUAN’S OWN TROOPS
REVOLT AGAINST HIM
VJ\ T3
PEKING, Dec. 26.—Conflicting
reports reach the foreign colony
here as to Yuan's condition ‘■'"me
describe him as panic stricken with
the consequences of his accepting
the crown, and others more self pos
sessed and determined than ever t<>
crush down opposition.
The situation is extremely serious
today. Thousands in Yuan's fav
orite regiments have revolted and
are joining the rebel standards.
Goneral disaffection is spreading
and the situation is most grave in
over a dozen provinces. Foreign
consulates are ordering their cltl
/
zens to withdraw from isolated po
sitions and to center in seaport*
where they will be under the pro
tection of the foreign ships.
That China is about to go through
the throes of a civil war cannot b«
denied.
