M'GOVERN WHIPS WHITE.
The Clever Chicago Hoy Finished in tho
 Third Round,

New York, June 12.-Terry McGovern of Brooklyn fully lived up to his title of featherweight champion at the Sea- side A. c. this evening by knocking out Tommy White, the clever Chicago box CT, in three rounds. The little cham- pion never showed better form and gave his opponent no rest from the sound of the gong in 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 smile and forced Tommy about the ring with terrible drives to body and head. After the first round Whites face took on a frightened look and he clinched repeatedly to save himself from punishment, but Terry tore away from his grasp as though White were a baby. The third round was a success sion of knock-downs for White No sooner would he regain his feet than he would go down again, and after going down for the seventh time he was so far gone that it was impossible for him to get up again, although he made a game effort. The boys were to have fought twenty-five rounds at 12S pounds at the ringside. Several challenges were issued to McGovern before the bout

HAY TON THE STTUIITON.
Says It Was Serious Before but is Now
 More Serious.

Washington, June 12.-Secretary Hay on his return from the cabinet meeting this afternoon declined to make any statement about the situation in China, further than to say: Tt was serious before; it is now more serious
 The state department received two dispatches from China this morning. Secretary Hay took them with him to the cabinet meeting Later, the state department gave out one of the dis patches, as follows:
 Chin Kiang, June 12
 Large numbers native organized se- cret society halted here. People very apprehensive; no protection Want cruiser. MARTIN.
 Mr Martin is the United States con- sul at Chin-Kiang, which is one of the treaty ports on the Yang-Tse river. The town has several spelings, and, except Shanghai, is the most important port in China. It is located about 800 miles due south of Tien-tsin, and is on the Yang-tse Kiang, about 50 miles from the mouth, but is accessible sto large ships.
 The dispatch sent by Consul Martin is alarming, as it shows that the anti foreign agitation is widespread. Secre- tary Hay said that no order for crius- CT to be sent to Chin Kiang had yet been written. but did not say whether it had been decided to take action at once or not.

THE ASHANTI UPRISING.
Another Reverse tO British Relief Col
 umn-Hcnvy CasuDIties.

Accra, Gold Coast, June 12.-Details have been received here of another seri- ous reverse to the relief column under Colonel Carter and Major Wilkinson, a days march north of the Prahson, There were heavy casualties, The lat est rumors reports further disaster to the detachment on the north bank of the Prah, which is now flooded and where the Ashantis were found strong ty entrenched. Col Willcox's advance has been delayed by rains which have destroyed the bridges on the Prahsu road. The continued absence of news from Kumassi tends to confirm the pes simistic views as to the safety of the governor and his staff. The coast towns are apprehensive of their own safety. The British gunboat Magpie, stationed at Accra, is the sole protection for the coast.

Marines Defeat Boxers.

London, June 13--4:42 a. m.-Sixtean British marines, accommodating in ad- vance of the international column marching to Pekin, fought and chased two thousand Boxers Monday, killing twenty or thirty A correspondent ac- companying the column, in a dispatch dated TienTsin, June 12, via Shanghai, June 13, 6:15 a. n., says:
 While the working parties, accom- panied by a patrol of sixteen British marines, commanded by Major John son, were repairing the line Monday af- ternoon eight miles beyond Lofa, they encountered small parties of Boxers, who were destroying the line, The Box CTS moved away from the advancing marines and apparently dispersed into the country, leaving the rails moved and the seepers burning
 The marines when two miles in ad- vance of the first train, near Lang Fang, suddenly perceived Boxers streaming from village on their left. It was estimated that they numbered two thousand some of them being mounted; and they were trying to get between the marines and the train Most of them were armed with spears and swords A few had firearms, which they handled awkwardly.
 "The marines retreated, keeping up a running fight for over mile and kill ing between twenty and thirty. The Boxers pursued the British for some distance. Then seeing more marines from train coming to their assistance Major Johnson's sixteen halted and poured a heavy continuous fire into the crowd, driving them across the front of the reinforcing blue jackets, who pun ished the Boxers severely with Maxims
 "The Boxers fled, and the Europeans following up their success, cleared out CTS is estimated at forty killed and wounded Seven of their wounded were attended by British surgeons The Brit ish loss was nothing
 Unless their loss causes the Boxers to lose heart, the international column will have much trouble before its reach es Pekin. The railway is so much dam aged that the column only covered thir- ty-four miles Saturday and Monday, and there is reason to feel that the road beyond is more badly damaged.
 "Evidences of General Nieh's opera tions were found in headless bodies. The whole country presents a desolate aspect, entire villages having been de- serted. Tn expedition numbers 2,044, as follows: British, 915; Germans, 250; 300 Frenchmen, 12S; Ameri- cans 104; Japanese, 52; Italians 40, and the Austrians, 25.

Chicago June 12.-At the annual meeting of the trustees of the North western university held to-day Martha F'oote Grove was appointed dean of women and assistant professor in Eng fish literature, succeeding the late An na Maude Bowen.

There were strong rumors in circula- ton that President Rogers had in his pocket a letter of resignation. It was believed, however, that he would not present it at the meeting to-day
 Later-President Rogers rendered his resignation to take effect on July 15. The principal reason given for his action is a lack of perfect harmony between himself and the other authorities of the institution.

 General Corbin attaches considerable importance to these captures. In his opinion they are more nearly in the na- ture of surrenders than captures, and indicate that the principal leaders of the instruction are abandoning that cause and are coming in to Manila to accept American supremacy.
