Proper Length of the Foot.

A perfectly formed foot should, &C.
cording to anatomists, be as long as:
that bone in the forearm which extends
from the elbow to the joint of the wrist.
This seems to be abnormally long in a
tall person, but is the measurement
taken by artists. Of course, arms are
sometimes out of proportion, being far
too short for the general height, but it
is rare that an arm is too long for the
stature of the person.

Evidence That the Empress Dowager
Has Declared War on Foreigners.

Evidence That the Empress Dowager
Has Declared War on Foreigners.
LONDON, June 23.-The following dis
patch from Shanghai shows that the situa-
ton in China is extremely grave: prince
Tuan has taken charge as general-in-chief
after dismissng young La, nephew of the
Emperor, the former commander -in-chief.
Prince Tuan gave notice that he would
march to Tien-Tsin and sweep out the
handful of foreigners there. At daylight on
the morning of June p he attacked the
settlements at Tien-Tsin with artillery and
the best foreign drilled troops. The Chinese
army had about forty-five Krupps. They
managed to burn the United States con-
suiate The warehouses and the Standard
Oil Company's premises are believed to
have escaped. Though the situation is
grave the Chinese have not occupied Tien-
Tsin.
''The latest news from Peking eplanating
from authentic sources is to the effect that
there is no change IN the situation. This
still hold out The Chinese have surrounded
them. but do not dare to make another at
tack. Apparently they hope to starve out
those who have taken refuge there"
The announcement that Prince Tuan has
assumed active command CT the Chinese
troops and is bombarding Tien-Tsin seems
conclusive evidence that the dowager En-
press has declared war on the combined
European powers and that the whole mill
tary strength of China is TO be employed
in behalf OF the Boxers. 1t is considered
significant that the Chinese merchants OF
Shanghai are realizing on their effects in
specie and retiring into the interior. Evi-
IDENTIFY they anticipate a spread Of the
trouble Consequently. ii is urged. the forts
at woo-Sung should be seized by the inter-
national forces in view Of possible eventual
tiles. Possibly as a preliminary to some
action of this kind the consuls at Shanghai
to-day addressed a note to the Chinese
admiral asking him to remove his feet from
Shanghai. In compliance with this request
two Chinese warships sailed to-day and the
rest will go tomorrow.
In the meanwhile the gravity OF the situa.
ton at Tien-Tsin can hardly be overesti.
mated. The critical state of affairs seems
plain from the haste with which the small
force of 1000 men was dispatched from
Taku to the relief OF the rie1Lrsin sarri
son force. It + doubtless etnseyins sn'

ant Postmaster General Heath returned
from Philadelphia to-day. He called at

LONDON, June "a. $40 a. m.-The only
dispatches from China received last night
are those which give further details of the
repulse of Thursdays attempt TO relieve
Tien-Tsin. According TO dispatch from
Che-Foo, hordes of Chinese with well-post-
ed artillery block the way of the American
and Russian forces. The guns of the allies
could make an impression and it was found
impossible to shift the enemys position.
Nothing could be done except to fall back
and this was accomplished in good order.
1t was ascertained that the foreigners in
Tien-Tsin were making a gallant defense.
The French concession buildings had been
vigorously attacked with fire and in all
probability have been reduced to ashes.
After the force retired an armored train
attempted to reconnoitre but was derailed.
More troops are arriving at Taku and an
other attempt at relief with force of
much great strength was to have been
made last Saturday night.
The Chinese legation at Berlin received
another telegram last Saturday night
stating that all the legations in Peking
were safe and that the foreign ministers at
that place were all we'll.
Prince Tuan, who is said TO be In COM
mand of the Chinese army that is bonn
harding Tien-Tsin, is the father Of the
heir apparent to the Chinese throne, and
is one of the worst enemies Of foreigners
in the empire.

Jennings Bryan. while en- route to Chicago

to-day that all stories to the effect that
there have been any differences between
himself and Chairman Jones. of the Demo-
cratic national committee, were absolutely
without foundation. Asked his opinion Of
the Philadelphia platform. Colonel Bryan
said: THE Philadelphia platform is the
best evidence thus far given Of the decep-
ton attempted by the Republican party.
Taken in connection with the speeches
made at the convention, II shows that the
Republican party's platform of 1886 was a
deliberate fraud as far as the promises of
international bimetaIIism were concerned;
thar the party's attitude on the trust ques-
ton is insincere. and that the party is not
willing to state its altitude on the Philip

NEW YORK. June 2S.-Richard Croker
arrived from England to-day on board the
Cunard line steamer Lucania. He says he
is ready to take very active part I'm the
coming national campaign. Mr.. Croker ac-
knowledged having owned American Ice
stock, but said it was bought before the
company became trust. He would not
say if he was not a stockholder. As to the
request made to Governor Roosevelt to re-
move Mayor Van wyck for his ownership
of ice stock, Mr.. Croker said: THE Gov
ernor has the power to do so if the mayor
is guilty, but all men must be considered
innocent until they are convicted of wrong
ding"
"Would you consider him guilty?" he was
asked.
In case the mayor used his office to
get possession of the shares OF the stock.
or to increase the price Of ice; that would
be, If proven, cause for his removal"
the reply
Upon matters pertaining to the national
campaign Mr.. Croker said that with Roose-
welt as McKipley's running mate we should
have San Juan hill all over again. He
said that he was going to Kansas City and
that he had to thank the New York news
papers for making him a delegate. 1t looked
he said, as If Bryan would be the Demo
cratic nominee for the presidency.
Mr.. Croker was asked whether he
thought Controller Coler would make a
good vice presidential candidate or a
stronger candidate for Governor, but he
said he could not answer that.
Mr.. Croker said that in their trust plank
the Republicans were simply straddiing the
matter. They cannot take that plank
away from the Democrats" he said.
