American Marines Landed for Protection of
Legation, While Russian Representa-

LONDON, May 29.-The Daily Express
has the following telegram from Shang-
hal, dated Tuesday;
The rebellion continues to grow in
Intensity, and the gravest fears are enter
tanned of its ultimate actions The for
elgn ENJOYS at Pekin, fearing a massacre
within the capital, have decided to bring
up the guards of the legations.
The rebels are now massing outside
of Pekin and their numbers are reported
to be constantly augmenting. Fresh
contingents of armed men are coming
up almost hourly from the north.
THE imperial troops who were sent
to disperse the rebels found themselves
outnumbered. Several hundred were
killed and two guns and many rifles
were captured, after which most of the
imperial troops went over to the rebels
They are now marching side by side.
1T is believed the Boxers have the
sympathy of the entire Manchuria army
in the anti-Christian crusade, and there
is no doubt that they have the counten-
ance of the empress dowager and Prince
Ching
The Belgian minister, escorted by a
strong body guard, has gone to secure
an audience of the tsung II yamen,
number of his countrymen having been
cut off by the rebels at Hsing Tien.
The position of the missionaries is
one of extreme peril unless aid is speed
lily forthcoming. 1t is feared that they
will soon meet the same fate as their
unfortunate converts, whom the Boxers
are ruthlessly numbering"

THE CASE OF HAROLD POOLE.

Boston, June 23-After almost month
of silence, nearly three weeks Of which
was due to Inconsistencies, Harold
Poole, the sailor boy from the schooner
Ella f. who was found unconscious in
Brookline one Saturday night month
ago, tried to tell the story of the assault
to the police today.
Those who received the disconnected
statement of the boy, who by no means
has recovered the full use of his
faculties, express the belief that the man
who committed the assault was George
Champion, the one whom the police sus-
pected OF this crime and the one who
since it was committed, has been arrest
ed and held for the grand jury in another
state for the alleged murder of George
Goodwin of West Newfleld, Me-, and
three other members of his household.
Poole was unable to speak connected
sentences today and his condition was
such that he was not pressed to tell
everything about the case.
He was permitted to give such infor-
nation as he could without too much
of mental effort. He could not name
the man who assaulted him, and who 1t
appears, also robbed him, but he gave a
description sufficiently accurate for the
authorities to determine that 1t was
Champion.
