A DIFFICULT OPERATION
Phoenix Physicians Trephine Skull
 of Miss Ethel Kent.

On Sunday morning Dr. J. w. Thomas assisted by Drs. Battin, Woodruff and Hawley, performed an operation which was very difficult one, interesting. but probably unsuccessful. For several months Miss Ethel Kent, a 16-year-old girl, residing at Madison street and Second avenue, has been a sufferer from brain and spinal trouble which was believed to emanate from a tumor on the brain. Yesterday morning it was decided that an operation would be necessary to remove the pressure, and accordingly a triangular piece of the skull was removed, two inches long on each side. The patient stood the op- eration well and in the afternoon seemed to have been much relieved. To- day it is likely that exploration meth- ods will be introduced In order to find and remove the tumor. Physicians stats that several cases of trepanning have been performed in Phoenix, but this is the most difficult one yet attempted.
 The patient is the daughter of MT. and Mrs. A. J. Kent, and her mother was with her yesterday. MT. Kent will arrive today from the mountains in the north, where he has been prospecting.

 Daughters Life.

Columbus, Ga, July 22.-Because he objected to the husband she had chosen, Alexander Pruitt, farmer liv- ing near here, it is charged, strung up his daughter sn chains in her room and left her for dead.

He then adjusted a heavy trace chain around her neck, attached the other end to beam and pulled it taut. Leaving the house he sought out the husband and fired on him with a. revolver, not succeeding, however, in inficting any injury.
 Neighbors, hearing the woman's groans, entered the house and released her when she was Within an ace of death. Pruitt is in hiding.

During the Spanish war the earliest and best news came from the signal corps men with the United States troops, and General Greedy hopes to be able to duplicate this achievement in China. The general is seriously considering the feasibility Of laying 8. provisional cable from Taku to Nagasal.i. The signal corps has hundreds of miles of cable at Manila intended for use in connecting the many islands of the Philippines with the headquarters at Manila, and it is only question whether 1t will not be more important at the present time to use this cable in connecting China with Manila rather than the islands with the capital of the Philippines.

NEW YORK CHINESE
They Have Faith in the Police and
 American Fair Play.

New York, July 22.-Only the wealth. jest classes of business men in that sec tion of the city known as Chinatown have any intelligent idea of events transpiring in China, and these know nothing more than they read in the newspapers. The ignorance is explained by the fact that nine-tenths of all the Chinese residents in New York are from one province-that of Kwong- Tung, with Canton as its capital, which is situated at the extreme south ern end of China, whereas the opera tions of the Boxers are confined almost tion of the empire.
 Lee Sheck Wun, interpreter and at tache of the Morning Star Mission in Doyers street. is a graduate of Ober- lin college, and has lived in Chinatown for many years.
 We do not expect any serious trou- ble with Americans here, for we have every confidence in American common sense and the power of the police. There has been little annoyance. however. from roughs since the Chinese uprising began"
 In some parts of Chinatown, however. the inhabitants are putting their places in state of defense, and are evidently in fear. The police say there is less trouble among the Chinese here than usual. Few have left the city. all though a party of seventeen recently sailed for Havana.

Appeals to the President
 in Its Extremity
LEGATION IN LONDON
Announces That Communication Is Re-0pened With Pekin and Min isters Will Soon Be Heard From. American Policy Complimented. 0vertures to Emperor William. Li Hung Chang in Shanghai.

Washington, July 22.-President Me be a direct appeal from the Chinese inn perial government to use his good of fees to extricate that government from the position in which it has been placed as a result of the Boxer uprising. AL though the exact text of the appeal made by the Emperor of China to France, as outlined in the cable dis patches of yesterday, has not been made known here. it is believed that the dispatch to the president is simi- lar in its terms. In our case the com munication was made through Minister Wu to the state department.
 Thus far a final answer has not been returned. The French government an- swered at once. but that answer will not serve us. The United States gov ernment is proceeding upon an entirely new line of policy in the treatment of the case. Unfortunately, the state de- partment finds itself alone in this, but, nevertheless, it is convinced it's plan is the best, and it has behind it the con- soling assurance that at present all of the European governments have tac- itly admitted that an error was made in the beginning in not following the common sense advice of the United States naval commander at Taku.
 The point of difference between the state department and the European governments is that the latter are pro- VeedinE on tine belief that all of the foreign ministers and missionaries and guards at Pel6in have been killed and insist in dealing with the Chinese gov ernment on that basis thereby assum- ing a hostile attitude that tends te de- stroy the last chance of availing of whatever friendly sentiment may yet exist among the powerful Chinese vice roys and the imperial government it's self

CHARGED WITH THEFT
A c. E. Delegate to London Gets Into
 Serious Trouble.

London, July 22.-Caroline E. Reyes pleaded guilty in the Marleybone police court yesterday to the charge of steal ing gold watch, d bracelet, hair brushes and articles of clothing of the aggregate value of s22 from rooms in Norfolk Mansions hotel, where she had been staying. When the robberies were reported the police interrogated nials of the questions with which she was piled for two hours. finally opened her trunk and displayed the missing ar ticles. Her explanation was that she had been drinking brandy. and while under the influence of the liquor took the property.
 When she realized the enormity of her act the next morning she tried to re- place the stolen property, but was un able to gain access to the rooms she had robbed. In the course of the hear ing Miss Reyes said she was an Amer ican and had come to London to at- tend the worlds Christian Endeavor convention as a delegate from a church in Minnesota. She had come to dis seminate the gospel, she said, and while it was true she took the things, she was not guilty In her heart of stealing. for she meant to restore the property if she had the chance. Ultimately Miss Reyes, who said she was without money, was remanded to allow her to call witnesses as to her character. Miss Reyes had previously stayed at the Hotel Cecil and the Metropole.

EFFORTS TO RESTORE ORDER

Washington, July 22.-The governor of Pekin and viceroy of China are charged to issue instructions to invas- tigate and then to deal inteIligently with each case of wrong-doing. The edlct states that recently evil-doers created riots, deliberately rebelled and murdered good subjects; certainly. it says, a deplorable state of affairs. All viceroys, governors and high military authorities are ordered to obtain ac- curate details, presumably of outrages committed by Chinese, and to make such seizures and take such action as the cases warrant in order to stop the disturbances. Besides, it refers to the seizure of the Taku forts as one of the causes of the uprising. A significant feature of the edict is the underlying expression of the desire of the imperial government of China, not only to pro- tect the foreigners. but to make repar- ation for the injuries they have sus- tained. That would seem to be the meaning of the instructions to the Chinese viceroys and magistrates to take steps to ascertain the extent Of these injuries.
