London, May BOA dispatch received here to-day says the Boxers have at- tackled and burned a mission station at Lau-Tson, forty miles southwest of Pekin, and have murdered the mis- siunary in charge.
 The Daily Mail has received the fol- lowing Tien Tsin, dated May 30: Heavy fighting has taken place between the imperial troops and the Boxers at Lai Shin Hi Sien, but the result is not known here Railway traffic to Pekin has been resumed. The foreign settle ment here is sufficiently protected by the American. and Japanese troops, who have been landed Consequently the excitement has abated."
 A special dispatc tch from Shanghai, dated to-day, says: Yesterday the Chinese government issued an edict pro- hibiting the Boxers organization, under penalty of death. The edict, which was signed by the emperor, was couched in equivocal terms and promulgated really more an an excuse than in condemna- tion of the movement"
 
 Pel1in May 30-The Chinese author ities attempted to thrown obstacles in the way of bringing the foreign guards to Pekin. The ministers maintained a firm attitude and to-day they were in formed by the Tsung-Li-Yamen that it would be impossible to bring up the guards until the Tsung-h-Y Yamen had communicated with the viceroy of Pe Chilli. As this was regarded as an ob- vious subterfuge in the interest of delay the ministers replied that if proper fa- cilities were not granted now the if teen foreign warships at Taku would land a sufficient force to come to Pekin without the consent of the Chinese gov- ernment, and they called upon the to give definite an- swer at or before a. m tomorrow CThursday) This is exptced to have the desired effect

young, the old, the rich, the poor.
There is no coordination of sound

We have been asked several times
since the appointment of the Wayne
county delegates to the Republican
state convention how they stand on
the gubernatorial question. We can
not answer the question, but we as
sumo that they fairly represent the
sentiment of Wayne county Repub-
licans. That sentiment, if we are
not very much mistaken, is in favor
of a pretty even division of the
Wayne delegation among several
candidates. There are three or four
avowed candidates for governor,
either one of whom would receive the
full Republican support in the state,
II nominated, and, if elected, would
take high rank among Indiana gov
erpQrs- Taking their fun naeasuns
I'm every respect there is very little
difference between them. In view OF
the fact that Wayne county has no
favors to ask OF the convention this
year it would certainly be good policy
and good politics for the Wayne dele
cation to give all of these eligible
candidates some support and thus
secure the good will of their friends
throughout the state. They would
consider such course reasonable
and fair. If, on the other hand,
Wayne should concentrate on any
one of these candidates the others
would certainly have good reason to
remember us unkindly and to cherish
revenge.
