his office this afternoon from his Euro
pean trip. Questioned OF politics. the
Chairman said that he had not been
back long enough 10 get posted yet, and
ne inquired particularly about the con-
dition of the fight in the Republican
ranks.
They appear 70 be going on the sup
position" ne said. that the Republican
majority is so large tnat they can fight
all they want to-
He also gave close attention TO a
hostory Of the struggle. but made no
comments.
On the subject of national politics, Mr..
Harrty said, there was very little 10
say. lie did not think either OF the
committees would meet before December
Congress meets in that month, and with
the meeting Of Congress there Is gen
orally a gathering OF the politicians from
all over the country at Washington.
To call a meeting Of the committees
before that time, he said, would put
many of the members to unnecessary
Inconvenience.
In speaking of an early or a late pa
tional convention. he thought late
convention would naturally meet about
September which would leave too short
a time for a thorough campaign.

Four Leaders ofthe Attack on Missionaries
Executed.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-Acting Sec
retarv Adee said to-day that he received
nothing from Minister DENLY concern
inc the information on the situation
contained in the press dispatches.
Mr.. Adee is exceedingly averse to max
ing any comment as TO what the abb
sence Of official communication signifies
and he would not talk, beyond the remark
that nothing had been received by MN
TO show whether or not Mr.. DENLY was
carrying out the instructions sent MN oy
the Department.
No information explanatory Of the de-
parture of Captain .ewell of the De-
troit from f'Oo-Chow for ku-Cheng
where the Chinese are Investigating the
recent massacre has been received at
the state or Navy Department. but in
view OF the fact that u was Intended that
Captain Newell should accompany Con-
sui Hixson TO Ku-Cheng. II is believed
That he has gone there 70 relieve En-
sign Evans OF his representative capaci-
~. and perhaps 10 carry instructions to
the consul from Minister DENLY.
A cablegram received at the Navy De-
partment reported the departure to-day
of the gunboat Concord from Chemulpo
Corea. for Che-Foo, China. Her ar
rival al Che-Foo will increase the number
of United States vessels there TO three.
the other two being the flagship Balti-
more and the gunboat Yorktown.
Acting Secretary McAdoo. of the Navy
Department told United Press re-
porter that he did not know that any
significance could be attached TO this as
semblage OF the American naval force
al Chee-Foo. He had given notice re-
garliug the movements of ships of the
Asiafic sauadrOn and that everything
was now in the hands OF Rear Admiral
Carpenter. For this reason Mr.. McAdoo
was unable TO confirm suspicion that
this Government intended 10 make
demonstration against China on account
OF the missionary troubles.
A belated telegram received AT the
Navy Department this afternoon an
nounced the departure yesterday from
San Francisco for Yokohama. Japan OF
the cruiser Olympia. which will relieve
