AMERICANS PARTICIPATED.
Appeal from Conser.
Especial to The Post.)


New York, August 6.-LThe Journals
cable from Shanghai says that Colonel
Meade has received by native courier
message wrapped in pig skin, signed by
Minister Conger as follows:
Help at once, 1T at all. In Brit
isb legation. No government Pekin
except military chiefs. who are de-
termined on destruction Foreigners"
The Shanghai correspondent also says
that in the papers of the victory at Tien
Tsin was found receipt for 100 taels
paid to the Boxers for the head Of Major
Waller of the United States marines, who
was killed at the first battle of Tien Tsin.
The Rev. DR.. Evans. an English mis-
sionary. searched the ysmen OF the Tien
Tsin viceroy and found in his private
papers full accounts of the doings OF the
foreign forces during the seige, with lists
of their killed and wounded. He also
found promises of pensions 10 the families
of all slain Boxers. He found receipts
for arms and ammunition from every viii
lage. This is proof of the official nature
of the Boxer movement and also OF the
treachery OF some one in the ranks of
the allies.
From trustworthy native source 1t is
learned that General Ma was murdered
by Boxer.
