ASSAULTED MAN IN MIDWAY.
Angry Negress Wreaked Ven
geance on Traveller.

At the Union Station last night as the
gates were thrown open to admit passen-
gers to the Mobile and Ohio train that was
to leave the station at 7:20 o'clock an un-
identified negro woman wreaked summary
vengeance upon a white man who, she said.
had deceived her. The irate negress went
down the stairs leading from the Eighteenth
street entrance to the station without stop
ping to count the steps. Her sleeves were
rolled up above her elbows.
The victim Ui the woman's wrath stopped
to pick up his satchel as the gate was
opened, when dusky hand descended
heavily upon his shoulder and a voice in
which there was little sweetness asked:
white man. where you gwine?"
he startled man dropped his satchei and
said nothing. The woman continued:
you've got my money and my railroad
ticket and you're trying to sneak away to
New Orleans WITHOUT marrying me. as you
promised to do
Then she swung her right and landed on
the mans shirt front. which she proceeded
TO tear TO shreds. With her left she jerked
off the right sleeve of the mans alpaca
coat.
As soon as the man recovered from his
surprise he yelled for help Several OF the
S;ttekeeperS came to his assistance and sep
arated him from the hclligerent negress by
pushing him inside the iron fence and shut
ting the gate. During the excitement the
neGreSs got. away and the man hastened
into the train.

Jesse Z. Cassidy. whose bride of three
days disappeared Thursday, is confident that
Mrs. Thorell, the young lady's mother,
knows her daughters whereabouts, and is
keeping quiet on the subject for the purpose
OF preventing MIN from locating his wife.
he is sure tnat nothing mas betaiien her,
and that she will return to him after she
understands the situation.
CASSIDY yesterday made inquiries of her
friends but failed to lind any ciew to where
she Is staying. He said that he parted from
her Thursday morning on the best CT terms.
AT first he thought that she was at her
mothers house. No. 1l2I Charming avenue.
which is only few doors from Cassidy 8

did not return or send for her clothes or

entrance into Pekin was further confirmed
to-day by two telcgrams received by the
japanese legations in Berlin. one dated Au-
gust IA, saying that the allied forces We're
only ten Il from the capital. and the other
briefly announcing that they had entered.
This evening the German press accepts
the fall OF Pekin as a fact. While express
ing joy at the happy discharge of one part
of the China programme, the papers point
ont that there Is much left TO be done. The
Bcrliner Post says:
"A great thing has been done, but a
greater must be done before the allied Pow
ers will be satisfied. 1t remains 20 obtain
redress for the attacks upon the legations
and other wrongs, particularly the assassi-
nation of the German Minister, and to in
stall a Government which will punish the
guilty and give ample guarantees against
the recurrence of similar crimes"
The National Zeitung. the Freisnn:s Zel-
tung and the Vosslsche Zeitung express
themselves in a similar strain.
Referring to a number Of special dis
patches appearing in German papers which
claim that the United States Government,
now that the members Of the foreign lega-
tons are relieved. is about to withdraw
from the international task undertaken,
high official of the German Foreign Office
said:
THE Washington Government has
sured the other Powers OF its Willingness
to cooperate in carrying out a joint pro-
Sramme. This assurance has sufiiced so
far and will continue to suffice in spite OF
newspaper stories to the contrary"
Mr.. John B. Jackson. United States charge
daffaires, when his attention was called to
these specials said:
THE United States Government has acted
with the greatest harmony regarding China
with Germany from the outset. In fact, up
to Pekin, the Powers are all agreed. but
beyond that no agreement has even been
attempted. The future must be left to new
diplomatic negotiations"
Germany. beyond any doubt. is preparing
everything for an autumn and winter cam
paign in China One striking evidence OF
this Is the fact that slow steamer has
been chartered for December to carry to
China material for a sfxty-mile field rail-
road.

MRS. KlNGSBURY RELEASED.
Prosecution Failed TO Show She
Was Connected With Killing.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Waco, Tex. Aug. 17.-aIrs. Eva Kings
bury, widow of IIyron Kingsbury. who was
charged to-day by Judge S. r. Scott Mrs
Kinssbury's bond was fixed at 5000 by the
r%;ini1ling court yesterday. but the defend
ant made no effort to give bail.
She remained in the care of an officer
Until this morning. when she applied for
writ Of habeas corpus. asking for {; dis
charge. Judge Scott heard the evidence
ard decided that it was not sufficient to
hold her.
The Court stated that the only evidence
against the defendant pointed to an acces-
sorry after the fact in that she sought 10
conceal the guilty party. but that. owing TO
principal, who Is her father. she was ex-
empt under the law from prosecution as
accessory.
The state sought to connect her with Il
conspiracy, but the Court announced at the
conclusion tint there was no evidence tend
irg to show her connection with 4 Conspir
acy. hence the discharge.
The failure of the State to prove Il con-
spiracy disposes of complications and
strengthens the story OF Duncan McLen-
nan, the aged defendant. who confessed to
the killing.
All the testimony introduced tended to
corroborate his statement that he and his
s.on. Duncan. Jr:, went there and became
involved in a fight with Myron Kingsbury;
that he killed HIS son through mistake and
that Mrs. Kingsbury knew nothing about
it until the killing was about over.
Her failure to give the alarm Immediate
ly was cited by the prosecution as a cir
cumstantial proof of prior knowledge, and
the state sought to show motive in the
large amount of life insurance and conju-
gal estransement. The evidence. how
ever. showed that Mrs. Kingsbury had very
little knowledge OF the life insurance poll
c!es. and suspected that they had been
transferred to another beneficiary. So the
motive failed. and the conspiracy theory
tell to the ground.

to abandon any idea Of further aggressive
action, but it questions the disposition of
Germany and the other Powers TO agree TO
such course.
The Berlin correspondent of the Morning
Post says that he learns that no formal
request for an arnistice has yet reached
the Powers, and that 1t is improbable that
aLy such request would be granted.
The other papers comment guartiedly on
the general situation, owing to the lack of
definite news when the editorials were writ
ten. Most of them advocate stern inqui-
sition regarding Outrages and the punish
ment of the leaders. even II they have to be
pursued all over China.
The Daily Graphic, in a paragraph ap-
parently inspired. says that there is no rea-
son to believe that any of the Powers will
repudiate the previous understanding to re-
spect the integrity of the Empire and the
dynasty. adding that the proposal to land a
British force at Shanghai originated, not
with the British Government but with the
Chinese. who. at the same time. urged that
this should not be done II likely to lead to
international complications.
This" says the Daily Graphic. "dlsposes
of the story that the Ticeroy of Nankin
changed his mind under the influence OF the
Consuls. Her Majesty's Government, we be-
lieve. have no intention of contesting the
right of France or the United States to
