Boxers Attack Catholic convent.

TEN TsIN, June 12.-One hundred
and sixty three British landed last
evening. An additional 20 British have
been sent to Fong Chan. Yesterday
special train left Tien Tsin for Yang
Tsen to bring General Mich to consult
with the viceroy. Telegraphic commu-
nication with Pekin is still interrupted.
The Russian warships Petropaulovski
and Smiloff are at Taku bar, and the
Russian torpedo boats 103 and 1O7 are
in the river Talu. Want of transport
prevents the Russians from landing
troops. The Russians are very active
here today. 1t is rumored that General
Fung Fab Sing, with many thousand
troops is at Peng Ii.
The latest news from Pao Tung Flu is
that the Boxers, 5000 strong, are at.
tacking the Catholic convent there.
The situation is critical and the officials
are evidently inactive. The United
States warslips Nashville and Monac.
acy are reported at Tallu.

WORK OF CONGRESS.
Wednesday. June 6.

Senate-Inability to reach Engagement
upon the naval appropriation bill forced
tho senate to abandon the adoption of the
houss resolution for final adjournment to-
day. The armor platequestion, which, for
i've years has been a thorne in the side of
congress, upset the calculations of the SEN
ate leaders and their well laid plans went
awry. 1t was q day of strife and turmoil.
House-When recess was taken at
1880 p. m, the two chambers with heads
down and horns locked were in desper-
ate struggle over the item in the naval
appropriation bill relating to ocean sur
veys. The final adjournment of congress
is postponed until it is over.
Thursday, June Z.
Senate-Congress adjourned sine die at
5 p. m. In the senate it was Il day of wait
ing. A recess was taken until 4:3O, when
the chair announced his signature to the
naval bill and various other measures.
Cockrell then offered a resolution extend
ing the thanks of the senate to the presid-
ing officer (Frye), who made an appropri-
ate reply, and then declared the body adj
journed.
House-Yielded to senate on ocean sur
vey item in naval appropriation bill. The
members then laid aside all differences in
the closing hour and indulged in patriotic
songs, in which the galleries joined.

Williamsburg, N. Y.
New YORK, June 13.-Three men
were killed, eight so badly burned or
manned that they are in the hospital
and three others are missing as the re-
suit of a fire in the cooperage establish

at least two score of people dropped be-
fore the firemen arrived. When they
came many were hanging from the up.

FAMINE GROWS WORSE.
Navages of Cholera in the Relief Camps
in Bombay Presidency.

III bOulDay FreSlueucys
LONDON, June 12.-The famine in
India grows worse. The Standards
Simla correspondent says: "It would
be rash to assume from the almost sta
tionary relief figures that the corner
will soon be turned. So devastating has
been the cholera outbreak, so enormous
the mortality and so blind the terror
spread by this black death that the
famine relief camps in Bombay presi-
dency, which contained thousands of
workers, melt away and are left empty
in the course of a couple of days. Starv-
ing though they be, the people prefer to
fly to their own homes and to die in
quiet rather than to remain in the
famine relief camps, where the cholera
is striking down 100 workers daily.
Terrible stories come from Dohad.
There the famine is at it's worst and
now cholera has arrived to complete the
work. An eyewitness says: "As we
walked through these quiet streets we
saw deserted homes and dead bodies.
One of the bravest acts witnessed was
little girl, about 7, attempting to care
for two little brothers after the mother
had given up all hope and lain down
near them to die. She was feeding a
fire which burned beneath broken pot
in which simmered the almost rotten
feet and bones of some dead animal
The scene cannot be painted too black.
No account we have ever read of any
famine would picture the state of affairs
at Dohad."

Champion Knocks Out the Chicago Boy
In the Third Round.
New YORK, June l3.-Terry McGov-
ern fully lived up to his claim of feather
weight champion at the Seaside Ath-
letic club last night by knocking out
Tommy White, the clever Chicago boy,
in the third round. The little champion
never showed better form and rushed
his opponent from the sound of the
gong i'll the opening round until the
referee had counted off the fatal ten
seconds. He took the stiff jabs which
White handed out to him with a smile
and forced Tommy about the ring with
terrible drives to body and head. After
the first round Whites face took on q
frightened look and he clinched repeat
edly to save himself from punishment,
but Terry tore away from his grasp as
though White were a baby. The crowd
looked for quick ending, but there.
were few present who expected the
termination to come so soon. The third
round was !: succession Of knockdowns
for White. No sooner would he regain
his feet than he would go down again
and after going down twice for the
seventh time he was so far gone that it
was impossible for him to get up again,
although he made game effort.

Big Armies Facing Each Other With

WASHINGTON, June 13.-Although
there is much conflict as to the status of
the revolution in Colombia, all advices
agree that armies of $4,000 OR 10000
men have been facing each other with
sanguinary results" The Colombian
charge here, DR.. Luis Cuervo- Marquee,
said yesterday that the official lnforma-
tion coming from the Colombian capital
showed that the revolutionists had been
forced back to the Venezuelan frontier
and that contrary advices received bv
the navy department here referred to
