Show FALL OF AX EfilEKOK CHINESE iMONARCH DEPOSED BY HIS MOTHER. Knit the Empress 1J Hung Chung Will l Returned to Putter- - Kaforuia ara Now WuTonl'rocrMilietti IiuHutllila. Perkin, Sep. just S3. An issue'll definitely important edict auounces that tlie Emperor of Cliina lias resigned h!a power to the empress (dowager empress), who has ordered the ministers to deliver to her in future their oflicial reports. It is difficult to obtain reliable information at the palace in regard to the preceding, but the recent reformatory edicts probably caused tlie change. While the emperor was subservient and a mere figurehead, the dowager empress permitted him to remain in peace, but as soon as he attempted to act on his own initialire, his practical deposition was the result. Uis principal adviser, Kang Yomoi.the Cantonese reformer, fled in spite of the vigor-ou-r attempts made to arrest him, and it is said he is now on hia way to Shanghai. The effect of the change must be great. In all probability Li Hung Chang will be reinstated in power and Russian influence will increase. The hopes of reform so ardently cherished by the intelligent factions of the Chinese are now iuipossille of fulfillment. The suddcncss of the coup is said to be due to the desire of the dowager empress to prevent the mission of the Marquis Ito from being successful. The Japanese statesman recently came to Pekin with the object of trying to bring about au alliance, offensive and defensive, between Japan apd China. The new order of thiugs will un- doubtedly prejudice British interests in China. It is reported that the next edict will give the full reason for the change. The wording of the present edict is not yet obtainable, but it is to the ef- fect that the emperor requested the dowager empress to assume power, this being the third time the request has been made. The Marquis Ito, in an interview before the edict was issued, Baid the emperor received him yesterday in the most cordial manner and said he hoped to have the advantage of the advice of the marquis in the reforms which his majesty intended to undertake. The marquis, even then, feared that the inaction and conservatism of the Chinese officials would 'nullify the reforms, although he believed the emperor was acting in good faith. London, Sept. 24. According to a special dispatch received from Pekin, members of the European community there believe the life of the empcroi of Cliina is in danger. It is added that the dowager empress desires to place Prince Kwnngs grandson on the throne. The emperor realizes the strength of tlie conspiracy against him and lias ordered the guards at the palace to be strengthened. GERMANYS PLOT. Fomenting an Outbreak of tha Insnrgenti Against tlia American Forces. San Francisco, Sept. 24. A Manila correspondent of tlie Evening Post says that Germany is endeavoring to embitter tlie followers of Aguinaldo against the Americans and that she has officers in their ranks, secretly drilling them, lie says that this has been going on for years and prior to the interference of the United States in the Philippine affairs almost every German vessel that landed there carried one or more olficers in disguise and stacks of arms and ammunition for the insurgents. The Post's informant has just received a letter from an authoritative source in Hamburg, giving the details of Germany's future in the islands. Briefly the plan is as follows: Germany will send numerous trading vessels to the islands and will arm 150,000 Filippinos, besides furnishing Krupp guns and artillerj for field use. The island-er- a will be thoroughly drilled by German officers, and by February Senor Aguiualdo will be prepared to make an onslaught upon the American forces. To aid this plot, the letter says that Germany is trying to induce China to purchase a large numlier of big war vessels, ostensibly to strengthen her navy, but really to be held for transfer to German' should complications arise. The German agents, who have made a report to their government, say that it will be impossible for the United States to land more than 50,000 men in the Philip)! nos before Aguinaldo is ready to make hia coup. The German report of the condition of affairs sayi that America's only Lops Is to disarm the insurgents. to this fact, numerous inquiries havo come to the station in regard to some Believed That tha Chinese Emperor lias method for its prevention.
