diately laid down in the water. With
the assistance of party who came up at
that moment Mr.. kephart succeeded
after much difficulty in getting them out,
one at time, and then in dragging the

Shanghai, Sept. 15.-The contemplate
ed withdrawal of the allies from Pekin
Is regarded as great mistake as it is
likely to eventuate disturbances in other
parts of China where the people are GER
tain to attribute the evacuation to the
defeat of the European forces. Even
here the Chinese, as whole, do not be-
lieve that the allies ever reached Pekin.
Competent observers believe that a les
son must be brought home to China now
in order to prevent serious outbreaks in
the future.

received here today: Galveston, Texas,
Sept. 14.-To the Associated Press,
Memphis, Tenn: I am in receipt OF
thousands of kilograms Offering assist
ance, inquiring about absent friends and
relatives. All these have been promptly
answered, but restricted communication
has probably served to cause delay in
transmission and delivery. The tele-
graph companies are doing all in their
power to restore prompt communication
with the outside world and already have
partly succeeded, and am assured that
within the next few days normal condi-
tions with reference to telegraphic COM
munication will prevail The situation
at Galveston has been in most instances
accurately reported. The distress OF the
people is great. Galveston and vicinity
need at once the assistance of all peo-
pie. Remittances OF money should be
made to John Seeley, treasurer of relief
committee. Acknowledgements will be
made in due course of time as promptly
as conditions will permit [Signed.] Wal

office. Full telegraphic service Is ex-
pected to be re-established by the close

number injured.
OF 1000 people living down tho island
at least q third were lost.

During a speech in the Senate Mr..
McOumber spoke on the Philippine
ouestion. He said it was to our COM
mercial and naval interests TO retain
the islands. He referred incidentally 70
the civil war and what he believed tece
the present feeling Of the Southern peo'
nile toward thu Union. He thought all
the people of the Union were happy now
under one flag and in one govern
ment.
Mr. Tillman thereupon declared that
not ten per cent, Of the white people OF
the South were today glad that the
Confederacy had been defeated. In FACT
he thought 95 per cent, Of the Southern
people were sorry they had been de-
feated.
"Does the Senator from South Caro-
lima mean to say" interjected Mr. VOL
colt ''that 90 per cent. Of the Southern
white people regret that they were de-
feated, and that this Union was NOS ui'
vided?"
"well,'' replied Mr.. Tillman, per
haps 95 per cent. Is too high.
Continuing, Mr.. Mcoumber expressed
the opinion that 90 per cent. Of the peo'
pie Of the United States were proud TO-
day shat they are American citizens and
are living under the Stars and Stripes
Mr.. Butler interrupted to say that he
could not oorroborAte the statemenS Of

A minute later, when Mr.. OatreJ
rose to make an inquiry, Mr.. Wolcos'
asked him II he shared in the opinion
that 95 per cent Of the Southern white
people regretted now that the rebellion
had failed and that the Union remained
undivided.
