two dispatches which presumably
bring its advces up to the most re-
cent date. There are indications
that the principal delays in the lines
of communication are encountered
between Tien Tsin and Pekin, fact
explainable by the newspaper advlces
that small bands of Boxers are opera
ting on the line of communication Of
the campaign force Just such in,
reference with the work of the sig
nal corps men was experienced by
the United States in the Philippines
and by Lord Roberts troops in the
Transvaal campaign Usually these
Interruptions are very short, the
marauders being driven off and the

The feet that more than week
was covered by the last interruption
gives rise to the belief here that these
attacks upon the lines of communlca
tion by Boxers are more formidable
