France has formally adhered to the
Russian proposal to withdraw from Pc

the Associated Press learns on unques-
tionabie authority that telegraphic IN
structions were sent yesterday from Par

of France and Russia at Pekin, direct-
ing both ministers in conjunction WITH
Generals Frey and Linowitch, to take
measures to withdraw the legations and

Diplomatic circles in London are in
clined to believe that this step will lead
to similar action on the part of the Unit

have received from Ii Hung Chang
copy of the credentials, emanating from
the imperial household, appointing the

TIEN-TSIN, Sept (via Nagasaki,
Sept. 10).-The Americans and British are
considering the feasibility of transfer
ring their winter supply base from Iong
Ku to a point near Shan Hal Kwan, OH
the Gulf of Ii Tung, which is free of
ice and is also railway terminus. The
chief difficulty in the way of the project
is the lack of troops to guard the rail-
way.
The British marines and two naval
guns have been Withdrawn on shipboard.
Thirtyive villages in the vicinity of
Tien-Tsin have petitioned the provision
al government for protection.
Boxers are reported massing along the
Grand canal.

Pekin say that the Empress Dowager is
in the province of Shan 81, and that the
Japanese are pursuing her.
A Christian refugee from Pao Tung
Flu, where the Pekin officials were en-
listing troops when he left, asserts that
he saw a large force of Boxers between
Pekin and Pao Ting Flu. He also brings
authoritative news of the massacre (al-
ready reported) by provincial soldiers of
the American missionaries at Fen Chow
Flu on Aug. Is.
Mr.. Atwater and his wife, with their
two children, Mr.. Legren and his wife
and Miss English were beheaded.
He also confirms the report of the kill
ing of twenty-three members of the Eng
lish mission at Tai Yuan Flu. AT Tai

to the flames Of the burning mission
buildings and where ten French priests
were killed, all the members of the
American mission were extermina ted,

HOUSTON, Tex, Sept. n.-Another
train over the International & Great
Northern left Houston at o'clock this
morning. This train carried water, 1nedi-
cal and other supplies, of which the suf-
ferers are in greatest need. Only men
who will suffer at no difficulty were car
rie5 on this train. 1t was deemed best
TO call the military companies into serv-
Ice. 1t is believed they can do effective
work in burying the dead, rescuing the
living and doing what general vork re-
mains to be done.
Hanks steam launch left early this
morning for the scene. The purpose of
dispatching this boat is to establish a
system of towing other boats to and from
Galveston. The relief committee is in con-
tinuous session day and night. Affairs
are in charge of Mayor clshea~ and
Gen. Watts. Headquarters are establish
ed at the city hall. On account of the
great number of applications for trans
portation on the relief trains, the commit
tee has decided to refuse all applications
of those who are not needed or who have
only distant relatives in the storn-swept
points. The general relief committee VIII

and Hitchcock. DR.. Aiken, of the latter
place, accompanied eight injured persons
to the city over the Santa Fe, and the
company arranged for them to be cared
for at an infirmary under the direction
of the county physicians.
Gen. McKibbin arrived here at an early
hour this morning with aid and a num-
ber Of soldiers Following him on fast
freight were two cars loaded with 10000
rations and 1000 tents These were sent
to Galveston on barge and will probably
reach there this evening. Offers of assist
ance are pouring in from all over the
United States. The whole country is re-
spending to the appeal for relief. The
money coming by telegraph already
amounts to several thousand dollars and

A statement will be issued in short time.
