situation in China.

London, August 15.-In its leader.
the Times says "The situation in
China has gone from bad to worse
this week by leaps and bounds. Con
temptuously rejecting England'S offer
ed support against foreign aggression,
the Chinese government has definitely
thrown in its lot with Russia and has
contract with the Hong Kong and
Shangai bank for the railway to New
Chwang. This contract the British
government is publicly pledged to up
hold, but an anxious fear dominates
all minds that Lord Salisbury will
again give way.
"Lord Salisbury is not a weak man.
A weak man would not venture to per-
sist in policy condemned by the coun-
TRY and by many of his own party.
An old rumor has been revived to ex-
plain the meekness of his diplomacy.
1t is said that the queen has laid upon
him her command that, at all costs,
peace must be maintained for the re-
mainder of her reign.
"She will not sign, she says, a de-
claration Of war against a European
power"

Camp Cuba Libre, August 10 Recent
developments in the situation In Porto
Rico have caused the officers and men
of the Second Texas to fell somewhat
dubious about the ultimate fate eff
General Wade's provisional division,
to which they have been assigned. The
matter of the Texas regiment going
to Porto Rico depends to large extent
upon whether it will be needed for gar

reintorcements of General Miles army
OF invasion, that being the use origi-
nally intended for General Wade's dl-
vision. Altogether, tho matter is
quite a doubtful one.
On the other hand, some officers
think there is everything to indicate
that the Seventh corps will do serv-
Ice in Cuba as an army of occupation.
General Lee has expressed an OMISSION

wanted within she next six of seven
weeks, as he expected the command

have had the effect of causing consid-

Headquarters of General Wilson at
Coamo, August 13.-(Noon.) -Delayed
in misunderstanding orders to adj
vance given to General Ernst's brigade
were countermanded upon receipt of
the presidents order to suspend hosti-
Titles.
General Wilson yesterday morning
sent a party with fag.o of truce to the
Spaniards, telling of the cessation of
hostilities, but the flag was not respect
ed. This was by order of Governor
General Macias. AS General Macias
has no communication with Madrid,
he may thus cut himself off from Off
cial notification of the situation, al
though natives have been sent through
the Spanish lines to spread the news
that a cessation of hostillties has been
ordered.
The soldiers of the American army
generally receive the news of peace
with delight although some are dis
appointed that there is to be no furth-
er fighting, and many officers express
regret at the suspension of hostllltles
in the midst of the campaign.

On silent sandals from the west,
To lay it's face against thy breast,
Albeit its lips are dumb.

VELSEY GUILTY OF MURDER
THE COLORED WAITER SHOT AND
KILLED DONOVAN FROM AM
BUSH.

1
KILLED DONOVAN FROM AM
BUSH.
Elkton, Md, March 19-Michael
Donovan, aged % years, was shot down
and instantly killed Thursday night as
he entered the yard of the FELTON, Hotel,
on Bow street, by Charles Neasey. a
colored youth OF 21 years. The murder
was undoubtedly premeditated and en-
tirely unprovoked on the part of DOno-
van, who has. since his residence here,
bore the best of reputation. Veasey is
employed at the hotel as a servant, and
with Eugene jefferson, a waiter in tho
hotel. they hid in ambush on Bow
street and awaited the coming OF Dono-
van who had been down town. They
followed him a short distance, and as
he turned into the hotel yard, Veasey
fred the fatal shot, which took effect
in the heart. He then escaped with
Jefferson, but both were captured at
midnight in the negro portion OF the
town. Veasey, after his arrest, ad-
mitted the murder and could give no
good reason for committing the crime
other than that he and Donovan quar-
relied over a horse which was to run
at the races Thursday.
Veasey is a native OF this county and
I does not bear the best of character
having been arrested twice on the
charge OF horse stealing at the age oi
! l3, and served a sentence Of six months
in the House Of Correction for the sec.
! Ond offense.
Coroner w. p. Dean summoned
jury OF inquest, with Ricketts, Nelson
| as foreman. A large number of wit
nesses were examined. many testifyinf
to having recognized Veasey as having
| done the shooting. The verdict Of tn.
jury was that Michael Donovan came {
his death from a gunshrot wound in tn,
left side, inflicted by Charles Vease,
colored, and that Eugene Jefferson wa.
an accessory before the fact.
In an interview with Veasey yester
day afternoon. he denies the crime wa
pemeditated. and says he carried tn
gun for protection, as Michael Donovan
had threatened TO kill him the frs
/ chance he had.
