SIR CLAUDE'S MESSAGE STRENGTHENS
OPTINnSTS AND PESSIAISTS.

IBT CABLE TO THE TRIBUNE.I
London, July %, l a m.-The Foreign Office
received yesterday morning belated message
from the British Minister at Peking and gave it
out before 6 o'clock. It was letter to the
British Consul a. Tien-Tsin asking for relief
and stating that forty-four had been killed and
over eighty wounded.
Directly opposite differences were drawn from
this letter Of July f. which was delivered seven
teen days after il written. A prominent
official told me that he considered it proof that
the reports Of the massacre were correct, since
II disclosed a loss Of over one hundred and
twenty-five killed and wounded two days before
the date assigned for the final attack The
legations with their guards probably numbered
five hundred and fifty, and refugees, mission
aries and women may have increased the num-
Der Of foreigners under fire to seven hundred or
eight hundred.
Other commentators on the dispatch took
more hopeful view. They laid stress upon the
fact that Sir Claude NJ. MacdonaIds appeal was
less respondent IN tone than Sir Robert Hart's
despairing message, which had been sent ten
days before, and that the losses during that
period had not been so serious as might have
been expected from the earlier summons. They
Claude stated that provisions would last for
fortnight which would have carried the garri-
son TO the alleged date Of Mr.. Conger's message
Sir Claude Macdonald's message was not in
cipher, and this was an indirect proof that Mr.
Conger would not have employed cipher If he
had been sending a dispatch about the same
time, and consequently that the use Of cipher
was prima facie evidence that the message from
him was in reply 10 Mr.. Hays dispatch.
Optimists reasoned last night that the lega-
tons had held out from June 20 TO July they
might have continued the defence for another
fourteen days, until July Is. especially as they
had food. Opinion ran heavily, however. in the
opposite direction. I have strong reasons for
saying that the Foreign Office rejects outright
the idea that Mr.. Conger's message was in
reply 10 Secretary Hays dispatch. Veterans Of
the Chinese service assure me that they are
entirely without hope that any Of the foreigners
remain alive, and that they are amazed by the
cedulity Of the Americans in being duped by
chinese mendacity.
Apart from Sir Claude NJ. Macdonald's mes
sage there was little news except a series Of
dispatches from the French Consul at Tien-Tsin
Containing information without a date from
Feking. AS the casualties Of the legations were
reported 20 be thirty-three, this apparently
an earlier bulletin than Sir Claude's.
There are no details here of the Russian oper-
stons at New -Chwang.
A Berlin dispatch gives the contents of a re-
tnarkable message from the Emperor Of China
. the German Emperor imploring him TO save
me empire from the indignation Of Europe.
This has a most ominous sound, and does not

safety Of the legations. I. n. F.
