Reply From Ii Awaited.

That dispatch was sent TO Consul
General Goodnow, to be transmitted
10 Ii Hung Chang. The message de-
Iivered by Minister WI to the state
department yesterday relative to the
inhibitation of the cipher dispatches
was sent by the Tsung Ii Yamen on
July 90. As Of that date, it had alrea-
DIV been communicated to the depart
ment by Consul Fowler. Obviously.
therefore, IL could not be a reply to
the dispatch sent to Mr.. Goodnow by
Secretary Hay on Aug. l. A definite
reDIy IS at this minute awaited with
some concern, not TO say anxiety
II is the final word of the United
States government in the pending ne
potiatiors. The demand must be ac-
coded to, if trouble of serious character
is TO be averted.
Minister WI is not in the city today
having gone TO Cape May TO pass sun
dav with his family. 1t is said at the
Chinese legation that he probably viii
return to Washington tomorrow. No
disDatches of consequence were re-
ceived at the legation today, and it is
said by the legation attaches that no
messages will be made public from the
legation i'm the absence of the minister,
unless messages should come which by
reason of their Importance should re-
auire immediate transmission to the

Bandits Stay an Old Man Who ReSSS Effort to Take His
MOney-GraphC Stories of Crime

Kansas City, No, Aug. 5.-A Journal
special from Salina, Kan. says:
Union Pacific eastbound passenger
train No. I, which left Denver last
night, was held up by two men several
miles west of Hugo, Colo. ninety miles
this side OF Denver. The passengers
in the Pullman sIeepers were robbed of
their money and valuableS. An old
man named Fay, a resident of Califor-
mia, who had been visiting Denver and
was on his way TO St. Louis, refused to
surrender his VaIuables and fired a shot
at one of the robbers, but missed him.
ThereupOn the robbers returned the
fire. one shot entering Fay's mouth
and coming out at the back of his head,
killing him almost instantly.
The robbers stopped the train,
jumped off and escaped.
Conductor Led the Way.
The robbers got onto one Of the
sleepers near LimOn, and after the
train had started the men made a noise
at the door. The conductor. thinking
they were trampS, opened the door TO
put them off. The robbers, who were
masked. pointed a pistol at his head
and ordered him to lead the way
through the coaches.
All of the passengers were asleep and
the conductor was ordered to wake
them one at a time. The frightened
passengers were told to keep quiet, or
they would be killed, and at the same
time were asked 10 hand over their
money and Valuables. The robbers OBJ
tanned about 500 in cash and a num-
Der of gold watches and other pieces
of teWelry.
The robbery took place a few minutes
before l O'Clock this morning. The body
Of Fay, who was killed, was taken OF
at Hugo and shipped to Denver He
was IS years OF age and a prominent
Odd Fellow of California. The con
ductor. who was compelled TO hold d
bag while the robbers relieved the pas
SengerS, lost his watch, and asked that
it be returned TO him in order that he
might run his train on time The rob-
bers gave it back.
Ransacked the Coaches.
After ransacking the two coaches, the
men made the conductor pull the bell
cord, but the train was going so rapid
/ is that the robbers were taken to Hugo
before it slowed up enough 20 enable
them to jump. They compelled the
conductor TO get off ahead of them. so
tiiotl II any Of the passengers ndQ Deel
in waiting they would have shot him
first. After the robbers had dismount-
ed they ordered the conductor TO re
turn to his train
Miss Shaw of Denver. a passenger on
the train, arrived in Salina this morn
ing. She stated that when the men en-
tered the cars every one was asleep and
very few knew anything of what was
going on until they were awakened by
the robbers. When the men came to
her berth d pistol was pointed at her
face and she was told TO be quiet and
hand over her VaIuableS. With great
presence Of mind, she opened her peck
etbook. letting a number of bills fall
out, and then handed the purse con-
tanning some silver. to the robbers. She
also managed to save her watch, which
was pinned to her dress. by placing her
arm over il.

sage was transmitted to President Nc
Kinley at Canton, and Mr.. Adee. act
ing secretary Of state. later in the day
issued the following statement concern
ing it:
Consul General GOOdnOw. in cable
gram dated Shanghai. Aug. ). which
was received at the department of state
at 4 O'Clock this Sunday mornir~
reports the receipt by Consul Rags
dale at Tien Tsin of messages from
Minister COnger and the secretary of
the legations. Mr.. Squires. dated July
21 10 the following effect: All well; no
Sighting since the 18th by agreement.
Enough provisions. Hope for speedy
relief.
Escort For Ministers.
Mr.. Goodnow adds that Director of
Posts Sheng had. on the 9Th. made to
him AT imperial edict dated July so.
ordering Jung Lu TO provide an escort
for the ministers TO Tien Tsin, when
the ministers fix the date. The edict
says the ministers. can receive mes
sages not in cipher, but, nOtwithStand-
ing this, plain messages were returned
to some cOnSuls on Aug. 4.
While the messages from Minister
Conger and Secretary Squires bear the
date of July q, the belief. founded not
and later information. is that the lega-
tons are yet safe from immediate
harm. At present there is no means of
knowing whether the ministers will ac-
cept the offer OF the Chinese imperial
government TO provide an escort for
them to Tien Tsin, but it is surmised
that they will prefer to remain within
the British legation at Pekin until the
arrival of the allied forces. Should they
leave for Tien Tsin, in all probability it
would be because they regarded it as
the safer course to pursue.
II is thought to he not unlikely that
the Chinese government may be very
insistent u9On the departure of the
ministers in the hope that if they can
be gotten to Tien TSiT in safety the
stOrming of Pekin may De averted.
Chinese Are Suspicious.
The inhibition of cipher dispatches 70
the ministers. while serious breach of
diplomatic usage, is not regarded here
with apprehension. The Chinese gov
eminent it is pointed out. is suspicious
of the actions and intent of the pow
erS. and probably has adopted this pre-
caution to prevent communication to
the ministers TO detain military move
ments II is evident from the adoption
of this measure that the imperial gov
eminent regards itself as antagOnistlc
to. if not at war with the powers. Thus
far no inhibition has been placed upon
cipher dispatches passing between the
various governments and their con-
sular representatives in China, outside
of Pekin.
The state department has taken the
ground that the dispatch from the
Tsung Ii Yamen, delivered at the de-
partment yesterday by Minister WI, is
not an answer to the dispatch of Score
tary Hay sent on Aug. l. In that dis
patch Secretary Hay finally and de-
cisively insisted that free communica-
ton with the ministers must be es-
tablished before anv steps would be
taken by this government toward a
peaceful solution of the present trou-

TRANsyAAL LOSS OF LIFE.

loss of life brought about by the Trans

than are killed in war. The use of

many lives. Constipation may seem a
little thing, but it invariably develops
into something worse, and the longer it
is allowed to run, the harder it is to
cure. The bitters cures Indigestion.
