Civil Foreigners in Peking Are Under
Arms to Fight.
Tien Tsin, June 12.-The special
train that went to examine the line
and reconnoiter returned last night.
The railway was found clear two miles
beyond Yang Tsuh. The engineers,
with the guards, walked mile and a
half further. They found the ties and
two bridges burned, and the railway
torn up.
The first repair train, with Admiral
Seymour and his staff, $50 British,
Captain McCalla's 100 Americans, 40
Italians and 25 Austrians. left this
morning at $50. A Hotchkiss and
other guns were mounted in the center
of the train. A second train left at IL
O'Clock, with 800 British, japanese.
Russian and French troops. Repairing
matter and new rails were taken along.
There are 81 foreign war vessels at
Taku. A message from Peking to the
admirals asserts that the situation is
hourly growing more dangerous for for
eigners. All those at Peking have
taken refuge in Legation street. The
civil males are under arms to fight with
the regulars, if necessary. The ap-
proaches to Legation street are sur
rounded by bowling mobs of undis-
ciplined soldiery. with cannon and
bayonets. The international guard
were holding off the mob, whlcl,
screamed insults and threats.

A BLOODY SUNDAY
Half a Dozen st. Louis Strik.
erS Shot Down.
DEPUTY sHERIFFs DID SHOOTING
Several Outbreaks in Various Parts q
the City-Militia Is Being
Prepared for Action.

St. Louis, June 12.-The day just
ended has been one of the most event
full and bloudy since the great strike or
the St. Louis Transit began more thar
a month ago. There were numerous
encounters between strikers and othe,
individuals and the constituted author
ties, resulting in four deaths and the
wounding of five or more persons,
mostly strikers. The dead are:
G. Edward Thomas, striking con.
ductor on the Choteau avenue line;
shot in breast by deputy sheriff; died
on the way to hospital.
George Rine, striking motorman on
Delmar avenue line; shot in abdomen
by deputy sheriff; died at city hospital
Fred Boehm, aged citizen, shot and
instantly killed while standing in his
front yard by deputy sheriff.
Ed Burkhardt, striking conductor on
Delmar avenue line; shot in head; may
die.
The day was quiet until this after
noon, when the police were taken off a
numbe of street car lines for the pur-
pose of giving them rest and to test
the ability of the Transit Company to
operate without friction.
The most serious trouble broke out
between 6 and z O'Clock in front of the
six-story building ON Washington ave.
nue., between Broadway and Sixth
streets, occupied by the sheriff's posse
comitatus as barracks and head
quarters. Several hundred strikers
had gone to East St. Louis earlier in
the day to attend a picnic given for
their benefit, and toward evening began
returning home. The trouble was pre-
cipated when $50 strikers in uniform
and headed by drum corps, came west
on Washington avenue. In their caps,
some of them had cards bearing these
words: Union or nothing; liberty or
DEATH
Just as they were passing the bar
racks, car of the Park avenue division
was going west. A number of the
men broke from the line and rushed for
the car which was without the usual
police guard. A brick was thrown
through the car window and shot was
fired by somebody not known.
At the first intimation of trouble the
sheriff's posse swarmed from the build
ing and surrounded the crowd of strik-
ers, calling on them to disperse. Other
shots were fired. Then several depu-
ties turned loose theil repeating shot
guns, loaded with buckshot. AS far as
can be learned only four men in the
strikers ranks were hit. Not deputy
was wounded.
Under the command of Colonel Cav
ender, the deputies arrested 20 of the
strikers and took them into the barracks,
where they were searched. Three re-
volvers and number of pocket knives
were secured, and the prisoners were
taken to the Four courts, where they
were locked up pending an investiga-
tion. The remainder of the strikers
fed, followed by squad of mounted
police that had been summoned. They
dispersed without further trouble.

PLANS FOR CARNAGE

ments Captured.
Manila, June 13.-The great store of
insurgent documents discovered by
General Funston, together with the in-
teresting papers which Captain Smith
found in the possession of General Pan
falcon Garcia, throw interesting side
lights upon the Filipino government.
Most important of the lot is Agrinaldo's s
plan for the uprising of Manila, which
was drawn by him at Malolos, is in his
own handwriting in Tagalog language,
and bears the date January 9, 1899.
Pinned to the document was a transla-
tion into Spanish done in the hand of
Buencamino. Aguinaldo's order was
addressed to his "valiant sandatihans"
or bolo men. When the word for the
uprising was given they were to slay
all American soldiers in Manila. The
inha bitants were to repair to the house
tops, whence they were to hurl down
upon the insurgents heavy furniture
and any iron implements they might
have. heated red hot. They were also
to have ready in their houses hot water,
which was to be thrown upon passing
soldiers, or squlrted at them from bam.
boo syringes. The women and children
were exhorted to help in preparing the
water and boiling oil. which they were
to pass out to the men for use. After
ward the bolo men we're to run through
the streets slashing Americans wher-
ever they met them. They were in
structed not to stop to pick up the guns
of the soldiers they killed, those could
be collected afterward. The bolo men
were warned to restrain themselves
from the temptation to looting, be-
cause, as Aguinaldo explained, he was
particular desirous to make good in the
eyes of foreign nations his assertions
that the Filipinos were disciplined and
civilized people. Particular injunc-
tions were given for protecting the
banks, even the Spanish bank,

correspondent Found Him In a Car ut |
Machadodorp. |

CorroBpOnQenG FOunO him In Gar oG
Machadodorp.
London, June 1.-THE executive
off ces of the Transvaal government are
in railway car, which is shunted on
switch at Machadodorp. President
Kruger caused the interior of the coach
to be reconstructed some time ago,
with view to contingencies that have
now arrived. A correspondent of the
Daily Express, who went from Lou
renco Marques to see President Kruger,
was received yesterday. The presi-
dent sat smoking long pipe. He
looked worried, but his bearing itself
was quiet and determined. He did
not make the least objection to being
interviewed. The correspondent was
equipped for the interview by cables
from London.
"Yes," said President Kruger, ''it
is quite true that the British have oc-
cupied Pretoria. This, however, does
not end the war. The burghers are
fully determined to fight to the last.
They will never surrender so long as
500 armed men remain in the country.
1 feel encouraged by the fine work
Steyn and Dewet are doing in the Free
State"
The correspondent suggested that the
war was over, inasmuch as the capital
had been taken.
''The capital" exclaimed President
Kruger, with energy, 'twhat is capi-
tai? 1t does not consist of any particu-
lar collection of bricks and mortar.
The capital of the republic, the seat of
the government, is here in this car.
There is no magic about any special
site. Our country is invaded, it is
true, but it is not conquered. The
government is still effective.''
Referring to the reason why he left
Pretoria, President Kruger said:
81 was not foolish enough to be
taken prisoner. I provided this means
of locomotion precisely for the same
reason as our burghers supply them
selves with horses when they take the
field. 1t is necessary that should be
able to move quickly from place to
place. That is all. Bye and bye this
car will take me back to Pretoria. For
the present, it enables me to keep
away from Pretoria, where 1 could be
of no sevrice and where I should only
play into the hands of the enemy"

Brave Stand at Catubie.


Washington, June 11.-Perhaps the
most thrilling and picturesque incident
of the entire Philippine war occurred
ut Catubig. on the island of Samar,
where, April Is last. party of 81 en-.
listed men of company K, ForJy-third
volunteers, held at bay force of some
600 insurgents during four days of fierce
fighting, reinforcements arriving just
in the nick of time. The war depart
ment has received reports from Captain
H. M. Day, of the Forty third volunteer
infantry, and First Lieutenant j. T.
Sweeney, of that regiment, who COM
manded the rescue party. giving all the
details of the attack, siege and the
relief.
According to the reports the attack
on the garrison at Catubig began with
out warning, Sunday morning, April
Is. From the hills on all sides, from
avery point of vantage in the town and
from a deserted church directly adjoin-
Ing came rifle and cannon fire of ter
rible intensity. Tuesday morning,
bandfuls of burning hemp were thrown
into the barracks from the insurgents
in the church and soon the soldiers
refuge was on fire. All efforts to sub
due the fire failed. and, finally, the lit
tile band, made a dash for the river
bank. Some were killed before the
bank was reached, others fell dead in
a boat in which it was intended to
make the opposite shore, and when a
trench was finally dug with bayonets,
only 16 of the 81 were left to man it.
Here, for two more days, Corporal Car
son, handling his men with the judg-
ment of veteran, held out under a
terrible fire until the arrival of Lieu
tenant Sweeney's command, which had
been ordered to supplement the garri-
son at Catubig, and which was on its
way up the river on the steamer Lao
Aug. Not until within quarter of
mile of Catubig, says Lieutenant
Sweeney, in his report, did they hear
the noise of the engagement. Then he
realized that he and his men were sore
ly needed and he ordered the captain
of the steamer to run his boat at top
speed. The Lao Aug steamed up to
Catubig under a rain of Mauser bullets
from both shores. The small boats
were lowered, landing effected, and
the rescuers fought their way through
the open to their comrades in the
trenches, buried the dead within reach,
brought back to the boat the besieged
party, mum bering now only IS men,
and then steamed down the river.
