CHEAP LABOR OF

; CHINA A

MENACE

Dr. Hodgkin Tells Earlham Students China's Commerce Is to Be Feared.

The Napoleonic utteraacc, "When China moves she will move t i world' was made the subject ot a stirring address delivered today before the students of Earlham college by Dr. Henry T. Hodgkin, head of the West China university. Dr. Hodgkin pointed out that the menace of China lies not in the vast hordes that may be wielded Into an efesctlve fighting machine, but in the cheap labor with which she will soon be able to turn out commodities and invade the commercial centers. In the steel industry of China, laborers are paid five cents a day. The resources of the country are undeveloped, but With the return of trained Chinese engineers who have attended the American schools, China is beginning to tap these vast resourpes of wealth. "The educated Chinaman," said Dr. Hpdfrtin, is making rapid strides and itiwill not be long until China, emulating, the example of Japan, will be able to" maintain a" position of strength in the commercial world. "Her people are waking from the sleep of ages. 'The city of Harbin,- which was founded and built by Russian capital Is now practically in the control of the Chinese who have advanced loans for the Improvement of that city. Much money has been spent on harbor and street improvements. The Russians of this city are bankrupt and the Chinese now control the City's commerce. "The opium traffic has practically ceased. Whole provinces have ceased to grow the poppy, and in one province the Chinese farmers who violate the edict against the growing of the flower have been beheaded by the governor. j "The white men who are invading (China are bent on commercial exploi

tation and care little for Christianity.

they hinder the growth of the Christian religion by their acts and deals. "While Inland recently I was approached by an American life insur

ance agent who wanted me to accept 'a position as medical examiner. This Illustrates how fast China is progressing. You can find the agencies of the Standard Oil company far from the sea coast. "I am in America and will visit England to ask people to assist financially in the work of the university with which I am connected. Only through the inculcation of proper religious ideals can the Chinese people become a power that will make for the good of humanity." """" -

ARE IN QUANDARY ABOUT jeiSDICTION Interested Attorneys Do Not

Know if Justice Abbott Had Right to Preside. Whether Luther C. Abbott, justice

of the peace, could have legally sat on the police court bench yesterday

morning and heard the evidence in the

trial of Jeremiah Miller, captain of the

No. 4 hose company, charged with having stolen a pair of snips, is a question which no one seems able to answer. Mayor Zimmerman appointed Justicee Abbott to hear the case. Attorney Wilfred Jessup, acting as city attorney in the absence of City Attorney Gardner, stopped the hearing of the case in police court yesterday by declaring that Abbott did not have Jurisdiction. The two attorneys for the defendant, the prosecuting attorney, and the justice, after a hurried conference, decided that Jessup was correct. Now they are in a quandary to know if he was right in his statement. Judge Fox, of the Wayne circuit court, stated this morning that if Abbott was acting as a justice of the peace he did not have jurisdiction in the case and that if he was acting as special judge he did have jurisdiction. However, Judge Fox declared that he would not want to give his opinion until he had heard the full details of the matter.

TO REPAIR THE TEDDY LEADS I TO 1

SOUTHJ. SEWER Condition Investigated Today by Board of Works. Orders Improvement.

DOES NOT UPHOLD GAMBL1NGAT TRACK (National News Association) MICHIGAN CITY, Ind., Oct. 24. Owing to the failure of the members of the Racing Corporation of America to arrive here this morning the injunction suit filed against Governor Marshall and officers of the state national guard was postponed for trial until late this afternoon. The racing corporation alleges that if the troops are permitted to remain at the track and racing is prohibited the property of the corporation, valued at $100,000, will depreciate. It is the contention of the officials of the racing company that there is no gambling by bookmakers and any betting that may be going on is between individuals and the corporation is powerless to prevent it.

As a result of considerable trouble experienced by the city street department since the improvement of South L street, Street Commissioner .Genn at the meeting of the board of public works today said that it is absolutely necessary to repair the sewer. The board decided to investigate the condition of this sewer this afternoon. It may be necessary to tear up the sewer and to construct another at this point, the cost of which will be paid by the city, township and county. The board decided at the meeting today to pay $1,500 on the paving of

North Sixth street, from D to F street. The street is to be paved with creosote wooden block. The estimated cost of the improvement is between $3,000 and $4,000. A letter was received today by the works board from the officials of the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern Traction company in regard to the

proportion of the cost of the flooring of the Doran bridge which the traction company is to pay. Subscriptions from business men and others who are interested in the opening of South Seventh street from J to L. streets, have amounted to $185. The board, at a recent meeting allowed Harmon Swicker, owner of several lots through which the proposed street would run, damages to the amount of $800. The subscriptions are to pay for damages. In case the amount of the subscriptions are not sufficient to cover the amount of damages allowed, the city will make up the deficiency.

EVERS WILL MANAGE

(National News Association) CHICAGO, Oct. 24. All doubt as to the selection of Johnny Evers to succeed Frank Chance as manager of the Cubs was removed today when the doughty second baseman discussed his plans for the team next year. "I understood from my talk with Murphy that I was to have the same power in making trades that Chance had," said Evers today. "I cannot say at this time whether Tinker will be traded or not. I don't want to deprive Joe of a chance to manage a club if he can get the job, but there is no shortstop In the League today that 1 want as much as Tinker. If he goes to Cincinnati it may have to be through a three-handed deal of some kind . If Tinker is to go I would like to have Mike Doolin, of the Philadelphia club, but I don't know if that can be arranged. "There is no chance for Frank Schulte to be traded. If I have anything to say, he'll be playing right here next year. If Sheckard can land a job as manager I would be willing to let him go." The Trojan said that it had been practically arranged that he would manage the Cubs. When Chance heard of Evers' statement he said he was glad to hear it and extended his best wishes to him.

The girl was reported to have been tarred by wives who accused the girl of misconduct with their husbands. The indictments were kept secret until today pending the arrest of the men. The girl excited pity as she told her story to the grand Jury. She said she was walking along the road near her home in the evening when she was seized by the men and carried to a barn where a crowd awaited with a tar pot. At first she thought some in the crowd were women tut later decided they were men masquerading in women's clothing, she told the jurors.
