SOME IMPROVEMENT
In The Conditions And Outlook In
India

BOMBAY, Aug. 1.-THE last of the
cotton crop was sowed this week. The
food cropsswere all sowed by the first OF
TIE month. Here the crops are report
ed above the average. In Tonkan. in
the Carnstic and in the Eastern Deccan
they are promising. Elsewhere, south
and north of Neerbudds, in Jugaral,
Katthtawar and Bsroda, the rainfall
has been insufficient. There has been
little sowing except in a few places. In
the Carnatic provinces excellent rains
have prevailed lately. If the monsoon
continues favorable within the cultivat-
ed area crops will fall short only at
Hagpur and Chattisgard.
The prospects in Bedsr are encourag-
ing. In Rsjpunta the rainfall has gen.
orally been sufficient for agricultural
purposes, save in q few sections where
the heavy mortality of cattle has been
felt. No'distress is reported

TERRIBLE CHARGE
Brought Against the Widow OF A
Murdered Man

Waco, Texas, Aug. 17.-Mrs. Kings
bury, widow of Myron G. Kingsbury,
who was murdered July 80, having his
throat cut while In bed with his
brother In law, Duncan Mcclellan, Jr.,
the latter being murdered at the same
time, has been arrested as party to
the murder.
She is held on S., 900 bond and will
have habeas corpus hearing this after
noon. The chief point of suspicion against
Mrs. Kingsbury is the fact that her
husbands life was heavily insured in
her favor, and that it was well known
that there was unhappiness in the
family.
The theory Is that her father, with
her consent, entered the room and
slew the son iu law, her husband,
Kingsbury, who had given him q great
deal of trouble, and in the darkness
aud confusion slew his son scciden-
tally.

SANDUSKY, Ohio, Aug. 1.-the
Lake Shore limited fast mail from Bos

startling accident at 1890 this morning
1t Bay Bridge, Ohio, just west OF San
dusky, which threatened 200 lives and
resulted in the severe injury OF many
passengers,,a the partial wreckine
of the pslatial train.
The fourth express car in the long
train jumped the track as it was run
ming at high speed along the embank-
ment skirting Ssndusky bay, and was
pulled away from the smoking car. The
engine and first express cars remained
onlthe rails, and the day cars and sleep
ers behind the two cars which jump
ed the track aiso were unharmed.
The express car, in which was mes
senger Hoyes, was dashed upon its
eide by the track and driven almost
to splinters. The mbination car
bore fourteen passengers and rolled
down the steep embsnkment to the
edge OF the water of Sandusky Bay,
where its course was arrested.
The passengers within were rescued
by trainmen and fellow travellers with
axes, WITH which they smashed open
ipgs in the shattered sides of the
wrecked car Express Messenger
Hoyes cut his own way CIT of the
tangled wreck of his car, and aided in
the rescue of the injured occupants of
the common coach.
No one of the fourteen men who oc-
cupied the smoker escaped without
violent Commissions or severe cutting by
broken glass, and it is feared that the
injuries of some of those who endured
the frightful fail down the embank-
ment may prove fatal.

troops of Generals Tung Fuh Slang

STORY OF THE RESCUE
The relief of Pekin on August IS,
which :appesrs to be an accomplished
fact, was accomplished by the allied
army in II days.
The advance entsiled two sharp ac-
sions, in which some 1900 of the o 'eign
troops fell. The American soldiers
distinguished themselves, and In the
battle of Yang Tsun we're the heaviest
losers.
The advance on Pekin began on Fri
day, August 3. Already on June 30th,the
Japanese vanguard had fought 3 severe
engagement with the Chinese near
Pei Tsang, a5ou. miles north of Tien
Tsin.
The Chinese we're in strong force at

urdsy, August 11th. The next OBJ.
jeotive for the allies was Tung Chow
ten miles outside of Pekin and q Chi
nese stronghold.
It was expected that the Chinese
would make a desperate stand here
but tae town was taken by the Jspa
| nese vanguard on Sunday, August
18th, without opposition.
At Tung Chow the allies rested for
8 days apparently, and may have
negotiated with the Chinese conc =rn-
ing tae entering of the capital.
The American contingent in the ad-
vance was made up of Fourteenth
Infantry under command of Col Dag
eett, the 9th infantry under com mand
Of Col Collidge, a battery of artillery
under command of Captain Really and
q force of marines under Captain Nc
Gala. The 9th United States cavalry,
lacking mounts, remained In Tien Tsin
to guard the city.
The grouping of the allies In the &C :
vance was interesting from a political
standpoint, the Americans, British,
and Japanese nearly always fighting
together, while the Russians and
French usually fought together in CO.
operation. but separate attacks.
The sun was more terrible enemy
than the Chinese, and the pro.trations
amounted to forty per cent OF the
whole force engaged.
AS yet only the bsrest facts concern
ing the advance have been received.
The picturesque features of the battles
in which the soldiers of rival powers
ought shoulder TO shoulder, are yet to
come.
