Shanghai. July 5. The British
consul at Hankow wires that he
has received news from Pekin Of
date July /. 1t says the British
legation was still besieged, but
the situation had become despe-
rate.
The Chinese gIoatinglJ report
that not one foreigner is alive in
Pekin, that all the ministers,
their families, servants an6
legation guards, with the mis-
sionaries and their converts,
have been killed.
That is the latest report. Re-
ports of an earlier date describe
the Christians as still holding

London, Thursday, July "a
special dispatch to the Daily Mail,
dated Shanghai, Wednesday,
says:
''The attempt to relieve, the
hard pressed European garrison
in Pekin has been formerly
abandoned. The admirals have
met at Tien Tsin and decided
that the weakness of the allied
forces left no other course open.
This practically leaves the little
band in Pekin with the women
and children to certain doom.
This has filed the entire Euro
pean community in China with
bitterness and despair, but there
are few who affirm that any 9th.
er course is possible.
1.-THE experience which befell
Admiral Seymour s. force practi-
cally decided the question of
relief. It is pointed out that the
Chinese had at that time in the
field only fraction of the huge
force which now cuts of Tien
Tsin from the es,siffol Nou +h;s
Iorce samounts to at least 200, 00(
tfhen, nearly all of them wei
|armed.
"There are moreover no rea
means of transport and no fooc
in the country around, for it i:
being laid waste by food and fire
The drinking water is of the
worst kind.
There is consensus of opin
ion among all competent military
and naval authorities that it vii
require at least $4,000 men tt
rescue the unfortunate garrison
in the capital. Even if any smal
force ever reached Pekin i
would simply have to cut its way
back with the rescued garriso,
if alive. 1t probably would fine
this task too great, after hard
ships and losses in the approach
to Pekin.

He Is Given Until Next Thursday to
Enter Plea.
Minneapolis, Dec. 16.-Frank H
Hamilton was arraigned before Judge
Simpson on the Indictment charging
murder in the first degree. He is
charged with killing Leonard R. Day
in the West hotel. There was a large
crowd present. The prisoner was ac-
companied by his attorney, R. L. Pen
ney. He gave very close attention to
the reading of the indictment by Clerk
Boyce. Attorney Penney asked that
the prisoner be allowed until Dec. 20
to enter a plea. This was satisfactory
to County Attorney Reed.
Hamilton has no thought of pleading
guilty. The attorneys purpose is
doubtless to examine the indictment
very carefully with the hope of finding
errors which will enable him to demur
to the Indictment.
