Chinese ambassadors, which the Elk press declares is identical with the mes sage from Emperor Kwang-Hau, men toned by the Shanghai correspondent of tha Daily Mail, and with the Chi nese edict published in Washington. The Express considers that the edict proves that Prince Tuan's party is making no attempt to disguise the fact that the worst that could be anticipat- ed has happened The edict contains the following paragraphs;
 The anger of our people knew no bounds. They could not be restrained. The task of guarding the legations which before was difficult, was made impossible"
 Elsewhere, referring to the desire to protect the legations still unharmed it says: If it is impossible for us to continue this protection, let it be repre- scented to the powers that we must be held blameless for the anger of our peo pie grows with the rising of each sun that sees more and yet more foreigners and soldiers coming to overrun and lay waste our country and slay our peo- pie"
 The correspondent says the edict is intended to pave the way for final lifting of the veil over the recent his- tory of Pek.n.

STE1MER SAALE FLOATED.
Twenty Bodies Found Metaphysics
 inAu Recovered From Her.

New York, July 11.-Twenty-fou bod
 ies were recovered from the hold of the burned steamship Saale to-day, which makes the total number of dead taken from this ship alone sixty. Most of the bodies were so badly burned or mutliat- ed that recognition was impossible but several were identified by initials or names on articles taken from parts of clothing that some times remained All of them appeared to be of workmen in the holds of the steamship.
 Great pumps were worked in the Saale to-day and by 2:2O o'clock this af- ternoon the vessel floated. The ship was embedded in nine or ten feet of mud and when she suddenly freed her. self she seemed to jump fully two feet out of the water Tugs undertook to swing the stern of the Saale around to- ward the middle of the bay, but a mud bank on her starboard side prevented and after an hours tugging the attempt was abandoned.
 After the ninth body had been brought up the men at work in the hold dHllOuHCPu tHul they Hdu tOuuleu Ill., teen piled in a heap In the stewards room. The door of this room was found locked. The fire did not get near the unfortunate fifteen, and their lives might have been saved but for the breaking of the glass in the windows. When the windows were broken the room filled with water and they were drowned like rats in a trap These bodies were in a better state of preser- vation than the nine found before them
 Up to Il o'clock tonight 159 bodies of victims of the fire had been recovered and eight more are known to be on the Saale, having been located but not taken out This makes 167 bodies re- covered from the ship, river and the bay. One other body was found off Rockaway, making the total thus far 16S.
