F. Wahle, president of the Board of City Magistrates, regarding a special meeting of the board to investigate the charges of bribery and blackmail ln the city polloe Before the present John Doe Inquiry was instituted by District Attorney Jerome the police court magistrates had decided to follow the precedent of the Supreme Court when their body was assailed and preserve a dignified silence. Magistrate Breen's contention now is that the Board of City Magistrates differs from the Supreme Court in that the board Is a corporate body and not. like the higher court, a body of Magistrate Breen says In part in his letter: As I firmly believe it will result In a thorough vindication. I am anxious for a thorough lnvostiga- Tt will be a bad day when the humbler classes, who have to do with these courts, lose confidence in those who administer Justice In them This loss of confidence would be a public calamity.

Therefore this is a far reaching and fundamental question. "It ought to bo needless for to pay that I subscribe entirely to your views," said Magistrate Wahle ln reply. ITALIANS PUT CURSE ON VESSEL. They Had Demanded Countrymen Who Were Being Deported. The Neapolitan Prince, of the Prince line of steamships, which sailed last night for Naples from the Bush docks, South Brooklyn, oarrled six stowaways and six women and four men who ware being deported.

On Thursday evening about dusk, according to Captain Egarton, five Italians came alongside the vessel ln a rowboat and demanded that the prisoners be turned loose, threatening at the same time to blow up the vessel unless their demands were granted. Captain Egarton laughed at their threats and told them to go away or he would let them have a charge of buckshot. They rowed away, after predicting fatal voyage. Police Headquarters detailed two men to reinforce the ten watchmen employed on the docks until the Neapolitan Prince sailed. Tho vessel arrived from Naples a week ago with the stowaways.

FAR EAST TRANSITION. Many Changes in Life and Manners of Chinese. an Occasional Corrasponaent of Hankou, China. Sept. 13.

That China 1b changing in many ways easily apparent to those who have resided in the country even for the last three or four years. On every side are to be seen happenings that show a new order of things, and some of the incidents to be noted are interesting to the foreign observer. In the open ports, and even la the olties -which are only partially open to foreign trade, are to be seen large numbers cf now shops. Ajid of these new places tho greater number of the fine looking ones are those engaged ln the selling of foreign style clothing and military and riding accoutrements. One can see numbers of mandarine and various Chinese entering these places and coming out with whole supplies of articles whloh they do not even know how to use.

On every sldtt are to be seen large numbers of students, most of whom have cut off their queues, wear their hair a la Japanese, and are dressed ln khaki or woollen clothing, cut in imitation of foreign style. They strut about as though they were the most important part of the empire, and take much notice of themselves, even if they are not noted by others. These students are many of them sent from their homes to various places in the empire to study, and the expense is met by the local governments. These local officials try to make the best showing possible, and at the same time pocket as large a proportion of the funds as they can. which all go toward maintaining the students.

So, when these members of the rising generation walk aboard a river steamer or a railway train and. immediately occupy first class apartments, only to be ordered from there to second, and, ln many cases, third olass apartments, they are decidedly surprised, and their faces are a study. For the Chinese student has always been treated with much consideration and has a large opinion of himself. A large number of Japanese professors are being brought from Japan to China to teach ln the Chinese schools and colleges located ln the large cities. During the war between Japan and Russia the Japanese learned the value of wheat flour and meat as sustaining food, as against the rloe diet which they had used almost entirely before, or with the addition of a small quantity of.

fish. This has resulted in the use of meat becoming exceedingly popular, and the demand has raised the price of beef ln Yokohama from about 12 sen to 40 sen a pound, and the business of Importing meat from Australia In cold storage has begun. The Japanese professors coming to China usually travel first class, and it is certainly Interesting to see these formerly abstemious people sit down to meals and order everything on the bill of fare, from one end to the other. They begin with sherry, take the soup, have fish, three meat entrees, two roasts, all the vegetables, rice and curry, a bottle of beer with dinner and a glass of port wine to conclude. This is one of the ways of being foreign, and in the Orient beer and wines at meals are included on the steamers without extra charge.

Then, after meals, these people gather together and get one of their number who has mastered the American game of poker to teach It to the others, and they play away with great glee. Of all foreign Improvements and Innovations which the Orientals hava acquired not one apparently gives them more satisfaction than the game of poker. Of course, these changes do not all quite lit as yet, as may be noted by the fact that both the Japanese and Chinese who have adopted foreign clothing relieve themselves of the discomfort of It and use their own as being more familiar and easy. This may be seen in travelling. On the Journey the native are put on, and when a port 13 reached where business la to be done the foreign clothes are used; and when the Oriental goes to his home, th foreign clothes are laid aside and the native clothing resumed.

mar days, when the Chinese came to foreigners to engage in business, the customary way was for the Chinese to state that he wished to assist the foreigner in business, and would be glad to work with him. Now the statement more often Is, nMy llkee plainer with you. makes do pidgin. It la full equality ln the business that John Chinaman Is looking for at the present time, and many of them are probably capable enough from a commercial standpoint to be entitled to such an arrangement. Some days ago a shroff, or clerk, employed ln a Shanghai office cut off his queue andv adopted foreign clothej.

In his former thoroughly Chinese day 4 this shroff would hardly have dared address his employers at all unless it was with regard to a matter of special business.

less to state, he changed hl3 nlace of employment, and If the change of clothes had given him more honest business ways. Instead of Incivility, it would have been better for him and also for the company by which he was employed. A "matter of Interest Is the sending: of fifteen boys, sons of merchants In Honolulu, to School, at Wuchang, in Central China, to be educated Boone School is a Christian institution where religious as well as other training Is given. It is wortp. noting that it i 3 possible to send these boys from United territory to the Interior of China to receive a good and practical education.

But what Is more essential at present than matters of education or dress is the Improvement that may be seen being made in many of the native cities adjoining the treaty ports. Good, wide, clean roads are being made in many places, and the natives are found to appreciate them from a business standpoint. New and substantial dams for keeping out the floods are being constructed, lands are being reclaimed and made useful, and in many ways there are signs of a rapid change to take place. The great trouble about it all la that China 13 such a large country there is fear that it may be impossible to direct the forms of activity and progress In the way necessary to hold the empire together. The final outcome is a difficult matter to predict, but it Is certain that great changes are already taking place.
