H1SHINGTON' FAITH HINING,
Chinese Minister Confident Good News
VIII shortly Come.

washington, July 27.-Unless some
authentic assurance as to the condi-
ton of the Americans In Pekin reaches
the state department within a day or
two the administration Is likely to
abandon whatever faith 1t has mani
tested thus far in the truthfulness Of
Chinese information. The Chinese
minister Is confident that within that
time there will be news from Pekin of
a character to satisfy the most skep-
tical as to its accuracy and he also Is
confident that this will be good news
from the American point of view. The
contributions of the day were from
Consul General Goodnow at Shanghai
and Consul Fowler at Che Foo. The
cables mangled these messages and
there is reason to doubt the value of
the information attempted to be con-
veyed through them.
Mr. Goodnow also had something to
say about the political situation and 1t
is believed that that part Of his mes
sage was not Of an encouraging char
acter AT any rate 1t was withheld
from the press, probably because the
department did not regard it as wise
matters which Mr.. Goodnow wishes to
be taken in a purely speculative sense.
1t is reported that $4,000 soldiers are
already at Tien Tsin-not half of the
force regarded as necessary to begin
the movement. The state department
advices this afternoon, however were
to the effect that all of the Japanese
troops have now been landed, in which
case the International force should be
considerably augmented. The war de-
partment, lacking exact information
owing to the slow means of telegraphic
communication believes that 1t has now
about $500 trained and seasoned Amer
leans in the vicinity of Tien Tsln un-
der the immediate command of General
Chaffee and if the splendid marine force
under Major Waller is also placed un-
der Chaffee's command, that officer will
have altogether 4,200 troops. In addi-
ton to this force about 5000 regulars
are under orders, some of whom are on
the way for China, SO that altogether
the United States should have 2 reepec-
table contingent in the interna tional
column when 1t starts for Pekin.

named Anderson armed with Win
chester rifle shot the negro in the breast
and he fell and died soon afterward,
AS soon as the negro fell numbers OF
people armed with Winchesters and re-
volvers rushed in and fired into the
body. Charles was literally shot to
pieces. After 1t was certain that he
was dead a mob entered the yard and
dragged the body into the street. The
police and the mob emptied their re-
volvers into it, while a son of one
of the murdered men rushed up and
stamped the face beyond recognition.
The police seemed to regain their self
possession. They finally picked up the
body and threw it into the patrol
wagon. The driver whipped up his
horses and the wagon started off with
5000 people running after 1t and clam
oring for the cremation of the body of
the desperedo. The wagon, however,
was fleeter than the mob and it ulti-
mately made it's way in safety to po-
lice headquarters.

FATE OF THE LEGATIONS


bers-Attempts, However, of the Con-
suls to Get Direct News from PeSin,
Missionaries and Native Converts Goes
London July 28--4 a. m.-Lyman j.
Cages statement that there Is still
hope, but 1t is constantly diminishing,
is held here to define accurately the
situation. The Chinese minister In Lon
| don, Sir Chih Chen Lo Feng Luh, yes
terday received a telegram from Sheng,
director of railways and telegraphs, to
the effect that an imperial decree in
the following terms was issued on July
"a:
1T Is fortunate that all the foreign
representatives except Baron Won Ket-
teller are found In safety and unharm-
ed Provisions in the shape of food
stuffs, vegetables and fruits will be sup
piled to the legations In order to show
our courtesy
The Morning Post goes SO far as to
assert that there Is no wdirect commu-
nication between the Chinese authori-
ties in Pekin and London, and that the
ministers are safe. However this may
be, it is quite certain that the attempts
of the French, Italian and other consuls
to get direct replies from Pekin have
utterly failed, and 1t Is pointed out that
the ability to supply the legations with
fruit and vegetables involves the con-
clusion that communication is not I'M
peded by thf Boxers.
Thus the daily alienation of hopes
and fears, the reiterated Chinese asser-
tions of the safety of the ministers fall
to carry conviction, and the decision of
the United States not to delay military
measures is approved as the only pos
sible course to pursue. The Daily News
says that negotiations with the Chinese
authorities, if there be any authority In
China, are useless.
1t turns out that as early as July II
an appeal from the emperor Of China to
Queen Victoria for mediation, dated
July 3, was handed to the Marquis OF
Salisbury; and it Is understood that the
other powers were not communicated
with until July 20.
The Shanghai correspondent of the
Daily Express asserts that three ver-
sions of Sir Claude MacDonalds letter
of July are current there, and that 1t
is believed all three originated from
Chinese sources. He adds, however,,
that Ii Hung Chang says that the le-
cation party ought to reach Tien Tsin
on Sunday
The Morning Posts correspondent at
Che Foo, wiring "Wednesday, says THAI
there Is rumor that Prince Ching res
cued the legationers and conveyed them
to place of safety. Eighteen mission
aries have been massacred at Tungi
Chau, where the churches have been
burned. General Sir Alfred Gazee'e has
started for Taku.

COMM T1NICA ATION WITH PEKIN,
Can be Made Only Through Governor of
Shan Tung.

Hong Kong, July Pin order to test
the Chinese assurances regarding the
safety of the legations, the Italian con-
sui here yesterday requested the acting
viceroy of Canton to communicate
with the italian minister Marquis Sal
vago Paggi, and TO obtain reply from
him concerning a matter known only
to the minister and the consul To-day
the acting viceroy replied that it was
impossible for him to accede to the re-
quest, as all messages We're received
from Pekin through the governor of
Shan Tung secretly For this reason
he was compelled to refuse.

6Pelkin Alive"

Boston, July 27-The American Board
to-day received cablegraln from Rev.
Henry B. Porter, missionary of The
Board, dated Che Foo, July 23, contain
ing the words: "Pekin alive'
Rev Mr.. Porter, who was stationed at
Pang Chuang, province Of Shan Tung,
North China, escaped to Che Foo after
the Boxer uprising. The cablegram
contained only the two words 'Pekin
alive" no intimation being given as to
the evidence on which the conviction
which apparently prevailed at Che Foo
was based.

More British Missionaries Killed.

aries have been murdered in the prov

Christians with death unless they re-

Heated and Sarcastic Reply-Defenses
Quite Adequate Every Confidence in

London. July 27.-In the house of
lords to-day the Earl of Wemyss asked
whether the premier, Lord Salisbury.
had received informant ton confirming
the view of one of our military at
taches to the effect that 1t was all i'm
portant that England should be entirely
unassailable by November next, and
whether he had satisfied himself that

Lord Salisbury demanded the name

The Earl of Wemyss-"You have no
right to ask it,
Lord Salisbury, proceeding with some
warmth, said the Earl of Wemyss' in
ability to quote the name was evidence
that the story was pulla invention. He

The Earl of Rosebery said 1t was to

thought the Earl of Weymss should not

do the same.
