PEKIN, Sunday, June S.-The most
alarming reports are constantly arriv-
Ing from the country, especially from
Pao Ting Flu. The telegraph wires
from Pekin to Pao Ting Flu are cut and
all news comes via Tien Tsin.
A serious crisis exists at the palace.
The ultra-Conservative party advocates
not taking represstve measures, urging
the dowager to allow the Boxers" to
finish the work OF driving the foreigners
out OF the country: the moderate party,
led by Prince Ching. representing the
serious danger OF provoking conflict
with the powers. II is impossible to
confirm or deny the report, but signifi-
cant indications Of the feeling OF the
gov ernment towards foreigners are con-
tained tn the attempt to arrest Lin, Chi
uese manager OF the Pekin syndicatei
KIa, chief OF the Shan-sl commercial
bureau. and Fan, leading banker Of
Shan-Si, on the ground that they are
dangerous characters, but. in reality,
because they are connected with new
British enterprises. Fortunately, all
of them were absent and they have not
yet been arrested.
The British minister, Sir Claude Mac.
Donald. has addressed q note to the
Tsung- Li-Yamen, demanding why the
arrests were not made.

WASHINGTON, June 4.-The hrst
session OF the Fifty-sixth Congress is
rapidly closing up business preparatory
TO adjournment. and 1t looks as though
the final touches will be given by
Wednesday night. The senate will
meet daily at 10 o'clock during the re-
malnder of the session, be 1t brief or
protracted, and that body has arranged
for night sessions. Many members OF
both houses are expecting to leave
Wednesday, whether the session closes
or not. Some will go tomorrow.
Members who do not expect to call at
the white house again until December
were with the President to-day.
Republicans Cheerful.
Republicans are cheerfully anticipat-
ing the campaign. Not one has lost
confidence in the success Of the party at
the polls. Those who were at first
fearful of the effect Of the Porto Rican
Legislation, and the insular policy gem
orally, have come to the conclusion that
there is no cause for alarm, and so ex-
pressed themselves at the white house
to-day. The record Of the Republican
party has been such as will command
respect and strength. they say, and
even conceding tina: single mistake
was made, the people will not condemn
a party that insures prosperity every
time 1t carries an election.
The Vice Presidency.
The only concern now IS to select a
candidate for vice president who Will
measure up to the Republican party's
high standard, and this, the leaders
saw. will be done. In this connection
IL should be borne in mind that not only
an actual citizen Of West Virginia in
the person OF Senator Elkins. but an
other who claims West Virginia as his
birth place, is being considered for the
position, The >Dolllver boom is as
suning great proportions, and West
Virginia will be proud II her gifted

Senator and Mrs. Elkins will remove
with their family to Elklns as soon as
Congress adjourns. Mrs. Dayton and
Mrs. Dovener win soon be away for the
summer, and their husbands will not
stay longer than necessity requires.
Judges Freer and Johnson will leave
early.

to-day and presided over the delibera-
lions Of the senate during large part
