ACCUSES .RoBBER NATIONS"
Missionary Blames England, Ger
many and France.

Chicago, July PA stirring address
on China was delivered before the
Moody Bible Institution congregation
this afternoon by Rev. Thomas Mar
shall, field secretary of the PreSbyter-
ian Board of Foreign Missions, and a
Chinese missionary of wide experience
and more than national fame.
He charged that European nations,
especially England, Germany and
France, are responsible for all the
trouble typified in the national uprising
against foreigners in China; that the
missionaries are not to blame. and that
the "robber nations" of Europe, when
caught in the act of despoiling the Chi
neSe of their territory and desecrating
the Chinese graves by running rail-
roads through them. are trying to make
scapegoatS of the innocent missionaries,
and are using the Christian evangeliz-
ing forces for political and selfish ends.
The speaker expressed satisfaction that
the United States government should
take a noble stand for the integrity of
China.
Rev. A. NJ. Cunningham, another
Presbyterian missionary with ten
years experience in China, followed DR..
Marshall, endorsing all the latter said
and describing the Chinese people by
no means as bad as painted.

BRYAN PLANS ITINERARY.
Prepares For the Trip to Indianapo-
lis.

Lincoln. Neb.. July 29.-Mr. Bryan is
so well along with his notification
speech and his plans are so well devel-
oped that he hopes tomorrow to be able
to announce his itinerary for the trip
TO Indianapolis and return.
He has no knowledge of the time and
place for his notification by the Popu-
lists and free silver Republicans, and
it is not believed his present itinerary
takes into consideration that function.
Local politicians had hoped that if it
was to be in the west, Mr. Bryan's
home in Lincoln would be the place Sc
lected, but it is now thought Topeka,
Kan, has the first call, and will prob
ably secure the meeting.
1t is thought possible the trip to Chi
cagO of'Secretary Edgerton of the Pop
uliSt national committee may have
some bearing on the question. Mr.. Ed
gerton left this evening. and expects to
see Mr.. Towne while in Chicago, but
said that was no part of his mission.
Mr.. Bryan told the Associated Press
correspondent there was not the slight
est foundation for the story sent out
from here that he had narrowly es-
capped injury by being struck by gold
ball.

QUITS FIGHTING BOERS
Lord Roberts Returns With
Staff to Pretoria.
BURGHERS TOO ELUSIVE
HUNTER SUSTAINS HEAVY LOSS
IN TAKING FoURIEsBURG.

London July 80, S:45 a. interpretations in
South Africa have again arrived at a
sort of standstill. Pretoria kilograms
announce that Lord Roberts has arrived
there with his staff, apparently finding it
useless to spend his energies against a
constantly retreating foe.
Commandant General Botha, with sew
eral thousand Beers, like General Chris
tan DeWet, has thus far euded General
Roberts grasp.
General Delarey is besieging General
Baden-Powell at Rustenburg in western
TranSVaal. The relief force sent TO Gen
eral Baden-PoWells assistance under
Colonel Hickman proved too weak TO be
effective and was obliged to fall back on
General French has occupied Middle
burg, in the TranSvaal and General Pole
Carew, with the guards brigade has ar
rived at Brugspruit, twenty miles west of
Middleburg.
The war Office has received a dispatch
from Lord Roberts explaining that only
one train was captured on the night of
July q, between KroonStad and the Vaal
and that it contained supplies and two
officers and 100 men of the Welsh fusiliers.
A dispatch from FOuriesburg, dated July
q. shows that the capture of Fouriesburg
was preceded by heavy fighting to force a
passage of the passes which was stub
bOrnly contested for two days
General Hunters forces had the hardest
work in forcing Relief Mex his casualties
amounting to about 100.
Upwards of 5000 Beers with a large
number of wagons a quantity of stores
and many cattle, have been driven into
the mountain passes, where they are
watched by British troops. Their escape
from that point will be very difficult.
The opera tons have been hampered
with bad weather, thunderstormS and
, deluges of rain, accompanied by intense
cold. Lieutenant MacLaren and three
highlanders have died of exposure as well
as many horses and cattle.
A dispatch to the Daily Telegraph from
LOurenZO Marques says. President
Kruger is now at Watervalender He ADDS
that a fight is expected. and if the Beers
are beaten President Kruger will trek
through Swaziland TO DelagOa bay and
take a steamer for Europe.

Just the hour when merriment was at its

the alternative of paying for a vehicle TO

the power would be turned on in a short
while. but a couple of hours went by and
still the cars were stationary.
Meanwhile word had reached the city
of the condition of affairs and there was a
general exodus of hacks, livery buggies
and carriages to the scene. II is a long

power house was remedied and the cars
started up again.
