London, Wednesday, July A.
The following SPECIAL dispatch is
published by the Daily Mail:
Shanghai, Tuesday. The
following imperial degree sent
by courier to Pao- -Ting-Fu, and
thence telegraphed broadcast:
eve are now warning with the
foreigners. Boxers, patriots
and people, combined with the
government troops, have been
repeatedly victorious in battles
with our foreign enemies. We
have already sent imperial COM
missioners to transport the i'm
perial praise and exhortations to
repeat these successes.
There must be men of similar
patriotism and bravery in all the
Provinces OF the Empire. We,
therefore, command all Viceroys
and Governors to enlist such
and form them into troops.
"Let this decree be sent to all
the high officials of the Empire. -
Rumors are current here, as
well as n Paris and Berlin, that
several ministers had been MUIR
dered in Pekin. There are dis
patches from Shanghai of the
same evil import, with details of
a terrible bombardment of the
British legations, the beheading
of foreigners in the streets, and
other embellishments. The
news will be bad enough when it
comes from trustworthy sources,
and these premature Chinese re-
ports merit little attention.
Washington, July A. Secre-
'tary Hay has received cable
grams from Consul General
-Goodnow, at Shanghai, dated to-
day, and United States Consul
McWade, at Canton. The one
from Goodnow is as follows;
"On June "a there were two le-
cations standing. The Emperor
and the Empress are prisoners
IN the palace. The city gates
are closed. Prince Tuan and
his force of Boxers are in control
of everything. Complete condi-
ton of anarchy in the streets. :
The cablegram from McWade
follows:
"Viceroy Ii Hung Chang to-
day assured me that he will I'm.
mediately Issue a strong pro
clamation, commanding the
preservation os peace, and order
in his provinces, and will take
the necessary measures for tie
protection of foreigners as FAR as
possible. He has largely IN,

According to the latest Pekir
news from Chinese sources, the
legations are at such extremities

women who escaped the bullets
are perlshing of starvation.
