Fire, Fighting and Dissension Mark
Rule of the Allies.

Fires. fighting and dissension are mp
parcntly following in the wake of the re-
lief of Pckin. The London Daily Mail
publishes dispatches from the Chinese
capital declaring that Il great fire WAS
raging in the imperial city. The Rus
sian commander had declined 10 accept
the decision of the other generals not to
violate the imperial precincts, and street
fighting WAS going oil.
Gen. Chaflce. so it is asserted. main-
tanned that the Chinese had been adc-
qlately punished already. and that it
would bc nnwise to take the imperial
palace. This explains the withdrawal of
the Americans after preaching three
gates, as cab!rd by the correspondent Of
the Associated Press. The Russian sel-
cral maintained that'his Government had
declared war against China. and That
therefore there WAS no reason to prevent

the lc.ationcrs are all liberated. hut that
the allied forces are powcrlcss to quench
the terrible fire which is making great
inroads in Il tllickly built portion of the
city. The soldiers arc too fatigucd TO

they are being carefully sought. The

to guard and defend the city. Fierce
fighting is also said to be still going on

coNaER lNpIoTs CHINA.
Says IMPERIAL Cavalry E%onnbardcd
the Le;yations.

\ long dispatch from Minister Conger
.~as receive! at the State Department
in Washington Monday night giving Il de-
tailed report of the condition of affairs
in I'clsin since June 20. Mr.. Conger
said that Il few days after the fall of
Taku forts the Tslng-li-Iamcn broke off
communication with the foreign ministers
and gave orders that the diplomats leave
the city. believing that to do this me
certain massacre. Mr.. Colger goes on to
state, the ministers refused to vacatc,
thererpon the imperial government Or
dered the imperial forces to attack in
force the legations.
He says that failing to take the lcga-
tons by infantry attack the Chinese
troops brought artillery into play, and for
over three weeks the legations We're sub
, jected to continued heavy b~ombardment.
The Pekin imperial army made repeated
and determined attacks and attempted to
carry the legation defcnses and it was
only through the gallant and heroic stand
of the marine guards that the Chinese
failed to capture the legations. The por-
ton of the message outlined above was
suppressed by the department.
The Government has been anxiously
waiting to hear from Mr.. Conger and,
while the revelation he makes is start
ling, the officials were prepared for just
what they got. Mr.. Conger's statement
that the Chinese made n desperate at.
tempt to cNterminate the foreigners the
night before the relief army arrived in
dictates that the Chinese knew the foreign
army would take the city in a few hours
and that they wanted to destroy all evil
.dence Of their duplicity by killing the
foreigners. AS the imperial government
directed the attacks on the legation which
constituted a declaration of war, it is
said that no peace overtures will be nc
ceptcd which do not embody a complete
surrender.
