I nlted «tatc< Consul Tells How the
>y*ten» W nrki In Prnssla.
WASHINGTON*. Aug 24.-Consul
agl-an. at Chemniti, Germany. has sent
to the state department a report on Prus
sian railroads.
"State ownership of railroads," he says,
"plays an important part in Prussia's
finan-est. Earning enormous sums,
s-r\ing commerce and manufactures in
times of peace and all strategic purposes
In times of war. they have more than
justified the arguments that urged the
government to own them and the liberal
policies that have p>»t them down and
push.-d them into all parts of the em
pire."
The receipts for M 96-97 have gone b
yord the estimate of the budget of 1.020.-
552 *»>) marks ar.d the estimate for 1537-SS
is 1.150.210,334 marks, while the total in
come of the kingdom is only slightly
more than two billion marks. After giv
ing statistics in some detail, the consul
continues:
"No other branch of public property
pays so surely and so *eli. The cer
tainty of the receipts of this size, the
ease with which they are obtained, their
cash character, render them the most
u»-»'ul of all the moneys turned into the
public treasury. Ho* successfully they
are run. in other respect* whether bet
ter than they wouki have be* n under
private ownership, it is hard to say. The
state has had its hands on the roads
from the very beginning Seeing how
successfully they would aid armies and
also how necessary they would be to
the development of the empire, Prussia
floating In the water. The bowed figure
and hooded head of the woman who bends
over the steaming kettle, the recumbent
form of the brave as he stretches his bare
toes in the warm sand, the toddling
pappoose who turns his back and waddles
away to play with the sea shells, all these
form a part of the vanishing life of the
Pacific Northwest that ought to be pre
served In sot.g or story' or sketch, and the
Post-Intelligencer takes pleasure in adding
It to the store of marine and agricultural
pictures which It has accumulated since Its
art department was established.
did not hesitate to take the railroads over
to the state. Their quasi puhlic char
acter has helped the people to under
stand that they should be controlled at
least, if not owned, by the state. The
tendency all over the empire is toward
state arid city ownership of all kinds of
facilities, as well as telegraphs, tele
phones and other means of communica
j tlon."

From \ Iftaria, Where They Met
the I)clc«atri to the Ulamonil
Jubilee—4 iilitornia «»aid to Favor
Chinese Immigration.
Two notable Chinese official* arrived here
yesterday evening on the tram from Van
couver. B. C., whrre tfcey had been to meet
the members of the sp :al embassy sent
by the emperor of China to attend the
celebration of the queen's julilee in Lon
don. The two principal members of the
embassy, Chang Yun Fung ar.d Yung
Wing. were old friends of the two notables
who arrived here last night. Chang Yen
Tong and King Owyang. the former of
whom is the newly appointed consul gen
eral in San Fra;. -co, anu the latter has
been vice c0n5.1l in that city for twelve
years pa t and has served under many suc
cessive consuls general. The chief ambas
sador, Chang Yun Fung, was Chinese min
ister at Washington in ISSS. when the Chi
nese riots on this Coast took place, and
K.r.g Owyang was then, as now, vice con-
sui in San Francisco and had charge of all
the correspondence and investigations in
connection with the matter.
V. hen the ■ onsul general and vice con
sul arrived they were met by Quong Tuck,
the tea merchant of Washington stre-'t.
and aft»r dinner they w-->re driven by him
about the city. There were no gatherings
( of Ch.nese. no firecrackers shot oft and
there was no great banquet or other cele
; bration. The two officials came in quietly
and will leave as quietly this morning.
During the evening they were the guests of
Wuong Tuck, and a few of the principal
merchants called upon and paid their re
spects to the representatives of the Chinese
government.
King Owyang. the vice consul, was one
of the first Chinese students to come to
this country for an education. He ent.-red
at Yale college In 1<72. After becoming
proficient in the English language, which
he reads and speaks a;* fluently as a na
tive, he graduated with honors in ISBI. In
ISSS he was appointed vice consul at Sin
I ranclsco, and although many efforts
have been made by some of the Tones to
ha\e him removed, he ha-s retained his po
sition. He is a relative of the new consul
general and is the mouthpiece of the con
sulate. This was the first visit either of
the gentlemen had pair! to Puget sound,
though King Owyang was well acquainted
with the conditions here.
In conversation with a Post-Intelligencer
representative last night. Mr. King said
..hat no official business had been or would
be transacted on their trip, as they had
been simply on a visit of respe-t to their
old friends. He said there was a notable
; change in the ideas of the people of this
1 f oast with regard to Chinese immigration.
■ and especially in California. This was
j largely due to the influx of Japanese, who
worked for lower wages than the Chinese,
but were by no means so . fflcient. Ine
change in California was largely due to
the fat* that the mining Interests had been
supplemented, if not supplanted, bv the
fruit industry, and this demanded the very
kind of labor which the Chinese can best
supply. "I am speaking as 1 Chinese, you
understand," he added, "and while every
one speaks well of his own people natural
ly. I have had exceptionally good oppor
tunities to learn of the trend of public
opinion during my long stay in this coun
try."
