 Brussels, July S.--A dispatch from Shanghai received here says that, ac- cording to high Chinese official the two legations which were still holding out on July were the object of inces- sant attacks. There had been some losses among the troops guarding the legations, but the diplomatists were safe.
 The dispatch also says the loyal troops under Prince Ching, who is head ing a counter revolution, had attacked the rebels in Pekn. The governor of Shan Tung, according to the same au- thority, is reported to have declined to obey Prince Tuan's orders to seize Man. kin.
 Further despatches from Shanghai say the legations were holding out on July 8, that the rebels had been re- pulsed with loss of 2000 and that the Boxers were discouraged. They also re- port that a Chinese journal confirms the announcement of Prince Ching's counter revolution in Pekin.
 London, July S.-The consuls at Shanghai report that the Pekin lega- tions were safe on July 4 and that the Chinese had ceased their attacks The only fear felt at that time, according to the reports of the consuls, was re- garding the food supplies.

Trouble WITH THE TIBER.
Result of Poorly Calculated En-
gineerine Operations.
tEHom the London Globe.

Owing to i'll calculated engineering op-
erafions by which the northern branch OF
the river by the Tiber Island was deep
ened few wears ago. the southern branch,
which skirts the former Ghetto. has dried
up into a heavy bank of muddy sand, and
this is Its normal state, making tit will be
understood the Island OF St. Bartoiommeo
as ridiculous as swan on land. The alb
surd aspect of il is the more accentuated
because the Ponte Fabricio. or Quatro-
capi. which unites the island TO the south
ern bank, happens 10 be both the oldest
and best preserved bridge in Rome, dating
from g. B. c., and being composed of two
bold side arches and a small central flood
arch.
On rare occasions, however. after heavy
downfails, the river, rising in its wrath,
succeeds in reasserting its ancient do
minion. and we see the beautiful bridge
built by Fabricius spanning the waters sent
down from Monte Pattino and Apsciano
Such a rise has taken place during the
last three days, in consequence of which
the Forum is inundated by means of the
Cloaca Maxims, while the foaming yellow
food has reached a height Of but three feet
below the little Franciscan garden be.ong-
ing TO the Church of ST. Bartolommeo.
The ancient Confessional below that basili-
lea, dating from about the seventh century,
is entirely filled. In fact, the waters have
risen about forty feet, and if rain should
continue to fan we may witness the Tiber
invading the Corso and Piazza d'Espagna.
Happily. a change seems TO be setting in.
II was quite a fascinating sight this morn
ing to see the main. or northern, flood
racing beneath the Cestian Bridge, like
succession of maelstroms, almost giddying
TO behold. AS usual. a crowd OF people
amused themselves by watching the opera

NEW YORK, Jan. 22-The most signifi-

of business on the stock market this morn
ing was the rise in English consols 10

Trading at the opening was in light vol

Union Pacific, common. was also active
and steady. Elsewhere irregular and
rather insignificant changes appeared.
The dealings in the bond market were
again active at advancing prices. Third

traction issues and was steady on the an
nouncement of the successful financiering
of the company's floating debt. The other
local traction issues were neglected. Su-
gar Refining was the leader OF the indus
trial quarter and the stock ruled generally
above its closing level of Saturday. Aside
from the news from the war, there was
little over Sunday bearing on the specuia-

WOES OF A CORRESPONDENT.
IN Appeal That Wns Not Intended to
Go by Cable.
CFrcm the Chicago Tribune.

ttroln the tnlc58o iflDuue.J
A Manila war correspondeI, for an
Eastern paper sent in his usual despatch
for the day from the little town out on the
firing line.
Under the rules the despatch had to be
addressed and sent direct 10 the press cen
sor Capt T. Green, who, after he had
passed upon il and struck out matter that
be regarded as objectionable, sent II over
TO the cable station There the -corre-
spondents colaborer was to review IL and
strike out anything from the message that
he had already sent. But he had himself
hurried out to another part of the hit-'g
line in the afternoon and left word at the
cable office that the messages which came
in from the first correspondent should be
sent just as they were TO the paper IN
New York.
The first correspondent, thinking his
colaborer was to edit his message in the
cable Office, had, after writing his mes
sage, put on the following postscript:
For heavens sake, send me new pair
of khaki trousers. Some soldier stole mine
yesterday, and | am wearing some pants
| took away from a Filipino. Send me
also a pair of socks, two cans OF sardlneS,
and a bottle of whisky. We can charge IT
all up as street car fare or fodder Tor
horses. or something like that"
The censor OF course, let the postscript
go as IL was written, for he supposed the
man at the cable station would blue pencil
it. But the colaborer was not there, and
the night operator had no orders TO do
anything but send messages as they came
in Besides, he did not know but what II
might be a code. So he sent it 10 the
New York office. There were sixty thI ee
words in the postscript al $3.50 word
gold, amounting in all 10 sl57.5O.
What did the telegraph editor il New
York think when he received that appeal
for pair of khaki trousers and bottle OF
whisky? Nobody knows. And will he let
it be charged up as street car fare or fod-
der for the horse? For the saddest part
of this story is that il is true.

Bees as House Pets.
(From the London Spectator }


Perhaps the mod adventurous addition TO the
house menagefie in London is that of hive OF
bees which live in sitting room and fly out
10 gather honey in Hyde Park among the flowers
and the blossoms of the London lime trees. The
bees are reported to be as industrious and ex-
emplsry as bees should be, and not to be demoral-
lied by such intimate association with less indus
trious human beinRe The practical difficulty in
the way OF keeping bees in the house arises when
the cold weather comes in, because they are
tempted to carry on work. in the house when
II Is too chilly for them to be abroad and when
bees are anxious 20 be busy with no work TO hand
their temDsr is always uncertain.
