Woodford MarrIes His

THE MANILA CASUALTY LIST

Washington, Sept. 26.-It is believ-
ed Gen. Chaffee, being at Tien Tsln,
has by this time received the instruc-
tions cabled him yesterday relative to
the reduction of his force in China.
If he returns to Pekin to execute the
order it will be Monday at least be-
fore he can begin the movement to-
wards Tien Tsin. 1t is thought here
that with a view to prevent any pos
sible misunderstanding he will ac-
quaint the military Representatives of
the powers at Tien Tsin of the pro-
jected withdrawal of the American
troops. This is deemed necessary,
because it is desirable to change places
before Field Marshal Won Waldersee
is on the scene. The rapid trend of
events in China toward actual and for
NAL war is regarded as certain to fol
low the refusal on the part of Germany
and some other continental powers to
enter into negotiations for a settle
ment with China is regarded here as
justifying the decision of the state
department to withdraw the American
troops now that the purpose for which
these troops were sent into China has
been accomplished. If the belliger-
ent powers seize upon Pekin, the Am
erican minister will still remain there,
and Gen. Chaffees legation guard will
stay with him.
Hong Kong. Sept, zo.--A mob de-
stroyed the Catholic church at Tok.
sahanga, few miles from Canton,
desecrated the American Baptist
grave yard, and destroyed the Ameri-
can Presbyterian church, just OUTSIDE
of Canton.
Paris, Sept. 26.-It is asserted from
excellent diplomatic sources that Italy
and Austria are the only powers which
replied favorably and unconditionally
to Germany's note. The replies of
Russia and France are almost identi-
cal, advocating the punishment of the
originators of the anti-foreign assaults,
but not making their surrender an alb
solute condition of peace preliminar-
les. Japan takes the middle course,
leaning little more strongly towards
Germany, while Great Britain de-
clines.
Washington, Sept. 26.-It is stated
in diplomatic quarters that definite in
formation has been received that
Prince Tuan has been appointed pres
ident of the priyy council in China,
instead of grand secretary, as at first
reported, and a number of other Chi
nese officials prominent in the recent
uprising have been similarly honored.
The position of president OF the privy
council is one of foremost Importance,
similar to that of secretary of state or
premier.
Washington Sept. 26.-The follow
ing has been received from Gen. Chat
fee: "Taku, 25, Sept. 81, No. So: l
acknowledge your number 40. leave
for Tien Tsin this afternoon and will
be absent several days. General Will
son remains here. Iii Hung Chang is

here soon. have offered him an es-
cort, but he declined; the country is
very quiet; good order prevails at
Pekin. CHAFFEE."
has been received, but has no date
The dispatch from General Chaffee
has no date showing that it came from
Pekin, but the war department offici-
ais are satisfied it was sent from the
Chinese capital.

Colorado Springs. Sept. 26.-A big
demonstration was made here on the
arrival Of the Roosevelt train. The
governor made short speeches at the
Temple theatre and the opera house.
Both places were crowded. All the
business houses along the line of
march we're decorated with bunting.
The escort consisted of the Flambeau
club, G. A R., and organizations of
various other civic and military bod
les. A halt was made here for an
hour and fifteen minutes.

A tourist with third, wheel to his
bicycle, so arranged as to ride smooth
ly and swiftly on railroad track, par
ticularly when going down grade, was
ansattractiona this city the other day.
The Wheeled traveller had tent with
him, and bed clothing and other per
'sonal' effects strapped to his back.
When asked if he had had any trouble
with trains when rounding curves, he
said he had not, as he always posted
himself on the time card and pro
eeeded very cautiously at danger
points. OF course he is a trespasser
on the railroad tracks and it is only a
matter of time till stop will be put
to his pilgrimages on wheels.
