WHY HE REFUSED TO REMAIN IN PRE-

For several months the country has been
eagerly awaiting a solution of the "Macrum
mystery" The conscience of the ex-Consul, it
now appears, was too tender to allow him TO
remain in Pretoria, to carry out part, at least,
Of the alliance which he claims TO have dis
covered between the United States and Great
Britain. The mystery is explained, and the
woes of the ex-Consul are set forth at length

ROOSEVELT NOTIFIED.

OYSTER BAY, Long Island, July II.
On the breeze-swept veranda of
Sycamore, his country home, Governor
Theodore Roosevelt to-day was Off
cially notified of his nomination for
Vice President on the Republican ma
tional ticket. The ceremony was so
simple as to be almost informal. Sur
rounded by the members OF the COM
mittee on notification a little party of
invited guests, Mrs. Roosevelt and the
rest of the Governors family, Governor
Roosevelt listened to the address Of
notification by Senator Wolcott, of
Colorado, chairman of the committee
There was no attempt at ceremony
The party simply ranged themselves
about the wide verandas, which COM
mand a magnificent view of Long ISL
and Sound, and Senator Wolcott, prac-
tically without preliminaries of any
kind, delivered a short address. To
this the Governor responded briefly
and then luncheon was served. An
hour was spent in general converse
ton on the cool porches and then the
party returned to Oyster Bay, where a
special train was waiting to convey
them back to New York

NEWS BY WAY OF JAPAN.

WASHINGTON, July 12.-The jap
anese legation has received a dispatch
from Toxic, giving briefly the details
of the assassination of Baron Won Ket-
teller at Pekin and the fighting around
Tien Tsin. The dispatch was sent from
Toxic July 4, but was in some way sub
ject to great delay along the Siberian
route. 1t states that the German min
lister was killed by shot, and that 1t
is not known whether the mob ele-
ment or the soldiery is responsible for
the shooting. The Japanese report of
the fighting around Tien Tsin is SINH
lar to that already conveyed In the
press dispatches.
Concerning to-day's reports from
Yokohama that the government is be-
ing urged to send $4,000 troops to
China, Mr.. Nebeshima, the Japanese
charge. says this is little mere than
press conjecture, and that there is no
present evidence that the government
has the slightest purpose of sending
more than one army corps, or $4,000
men, to China

CONFIRMS PESSIMISM.

LONDON, July 12.-The character of to-

simism in London concerning the fate of
the international colony at Pekin OBJ
servers see in the edict from Pekin and
other information emanating from Chi
nese official sources only attempts to
gain time and desperate anxiety on the
part of some to make an apology for the
outrages committed at the capital. The
latest news from Tien Tsin considerably
intensifies the general alarm. The lack of
cohesion among the allies and the con-
sequent failure to make Roadway, render
the situation there critical
