. Rev. LIE. Ia1mage writes 10 the New
York Herald about his recent visit t o
the Danish court: 1.-THE crown prince
received us in his palace and all his
family came in with hearty greetings,
and q more delightful domestic group
was never gathered. From the uncon-
ventional name in which they re-
ceived my family and myself, one
would not think there had ever been
q crown in the ancestral line or ever
would be. Himself on the way to the
throne and q brother Of the princess
Of Wales and of the king of Greece and
of the dowager empress of Russia, and
all his life mingling with royalties, he
was less pretentious than any of the
officers in the ante room of the palace.
He freely and famlliarly conversed Of
the great international questions
which are now disturbing Europe and
Asia. He will soon take the govern
ment, for his father is "a years Of age
and must o by natural law put
down the scepter. The queen, though
| heir to uncounted millions, has not
been made worldly, but is chiefly in
~terested in religious work in all parts
Of the world. Tho oldest daughter is
q marvel of beauty and good sense,
speaking English almost a well ~
Danish. After conversation the whole
group accompanied us in q ramble
through the royal gardens; amid trees
themselves monarchs and by fountains
that had crowns of rainbow and by
flower beds where queens of beauty
reigned. After the ladies of our panty
had captured all the princely auto
graphs they wished to win, We left
this brilliant home. But the Andness
of these royal folks did not ceas when
we descended the steps, for the lovely

Copenhagen, Aug. IA wrestling
match between Paul Belling the cham
pion wrestler of Austria, and Bech-
Olsen took place this afternoon at
Charlottenlund, in the presence of ten
thousand people. This was Bech-
Olsen's first appearance after his re-
turn from America. At the last mo-
ment it was decided that the COM
bat should continue until one of the
two was beaten, and not two or three
rounds, as usual. After a 1s-minute
struggle Bech-Olsen succeeded in
pressing both shoulders of his oppo-
nent to the ground, and once more the
public could salute their popular coun-
tryman as victor.

Vancouver, p. c., June 16-Another

The difficulty arises over question OF
wages and has been brewing for several
months. In about three-quarters of the
mines the miners, who are the principal
workers under ground, are paid $3.50 or
81. 60 day. In small minority of the

OFF THE WORLDS WIRES.

New York. June ia dispatch to the
Times from Paris says: NJ. Waldeck-
Rousseau has somewhat alienated the
socialists by declaration he made to
the effect that workman who wants to
work is as much entitled to the protec-
tion Of the authorities as the man who
does not want to work. This statement
was made in justification of the action
OF the authorities in giving an escort Of
20 policemen to two workmen who
wished to enter factor where a strike
was in progress. The final action of the
government in this matter is likely to
have most important effect toward
settling on the continent Of Europe the
amount of individual freedom which II

the strength of the Boxers and it may be
necessary to send a Russian military
force to support the marines. The Rus
sian reserve of 1,700 men is already on
shore with guns and horses and this can
be increased by 1000 men from Port Ar

Dispatches received from here before
midnight were mainly from the coast
towns and there was little trustworthy
intelligence from the capital. Christian
refugees had swarmed into Pekin from
the mission stations and the embassies
and protestant churches and buildings
were barricaded. The China Inland
mission at Yum Nan Flu had been attack
ed and the insurrectionary movement
was spreading from province to prov

authority. The British policy is not un-
derstood but there is general impress

washington, June 16-Not a word of
news came to the state department over
now been cut off from communication
since last Tuesday. Even the United
States consuls in the North China ports
were silent. Admiral Kernpff has not
been heard from since yesterday. This
absence of official news has given rise to
grave apprehension here. It was ex-
pected that there might be delay in hear
ing from Conger, but in case of Kempff
an early report was looked for. and it is
feared that the officers of the foreign
fleet at Taku have been prevented from
reaching the cable station there either
by open hostility of the Boxers or by
the sinister orders of the Chinese gov
ernment. The element which advocates
the use of troops at once is finding strong
support in the apparent inability
of the relief column to reach Pekin.
They argue that sailors and marines are
we'll enough in operations along the sea
coast. but that they are helpless in a
hostile country away from their base.
There is nothing corresponding to the
transportation branch of the quarter
masters department in the naval SER
vice. It appears that with the railroad
destroyed, and without wheel or animal
transportation, the relief column is in
a bad way. The country will not afford
either animals or vehicles, and every
thing must be carried on the backs OF
the sailors or drawn by coolies The reg
ular troops with their quartermaster de-
partment would be perfectly at home in
such surroundings, and it is probable
this consideration will enter largely into
the probable resolution of the adminis-
tration to send troops to China.

London. June Is, 6:15 p. m-The war
office has received the following dis
patch from Lord Roberts:
Pretoria. June 15.-As I telegraphed
yesterday from one of our outposts, Is
miles east of Pretoria. the Beers evacu-
ated their position during the night OF
June IL. They had paid so much atten-
tion to strengthening their hanks that
their center was weakly held and as
soon as this became evident. on June IL,
I directed Ian Hamilton to attack. He
| moved against Diamond hill with the
Suffoks. Derbyshires and City Imperial
volunteers. supported on the left by the
guards brigade under Jones. 1t was
grand seeing the way our men advanced
over the difficult ground and under a
heavy fire.
''The casualties I am thankful to say,
were less than 100, a very small number
considering the natural strength of the
position which had TO be carried.
+ sour seizure of Diamond hill caused
lthe Beers to feel they were practically
] surrounded and this resulted in their
hasty retirement. Hamilton spoke in
nigh terms of the troops engaged. HAM
hton received a confusion from a shrap-
neil bulAet in the shoulder. but is not, I
ann happy to say, unable to perform his
duty"

London, June 16--4 a. rn.---The British
government Is considering whether q
substantial force should not be sent tu
China from South Africa. It is thought,
unoficially, that Lord Roberts could
spare a brigade or two, and the neces-
sary transports are now in South Afri-
can waters. The command of the expe-
dition, 1t is said, would probably be
given to Gen. Sir William Nicholson.
