Shanghai, June 20.-The Pekin news
wired today, emanated from the admins
traitor of the Chinese telegraphs. Mer-
chant steamers are not allowed to proceed
to Tien Tsin and vessels on their way
there have returned to Che Flu. Corre-
spondence with Tien Tsin is difficult.
The Chinese Merchants company has
ceased sending vessels northward.
The British armored cruiser Undaunted

cleared for action while passing the forts

|. Wire communication between Tien Tsin
and Pekin is impossible. The foreign
officials here are totally ignorant of the
state of affairs in the north.
Telegrams from Tien Tsin, dated June
10, and forwarded by post, say that the
foreign missionaries at Pao Ting Flu are
safe, being guarded by the troops of Gen.
eral Nieh. Twenty-Five Americans with
a eating gun, have arrived. In the for

and the mission stations Of the American

dist Episcopal church and OF the London
Missionary society are practically in the

Philadelphia, June e0.-It seems TO be
regarded as settled tonight that Roosevelt
win be nominated for Vice President
tomorrow. The Maine men are still
remaining loyalty by Long, but there
seems no way of turning the West to
Long with Roosevelt In the way. There
is full as much excitement this evening
over Mr.. Quay's proposition to put the
representation in future national con-
yentions on the basis of the Republican
vote cast. This would break up the great
Southern representation and do away
with the corruption and manipulation
by which Blaine, Sherman and Rsed
have suffered in the past conventions.
The Maine men favor Quay's proposition
which is much the same as that proposed
by Mr.. Manley several years ago. This
evening Southern delegations visited the
Maine headquarters TO urge them TO
oppose Quay's proposition, but Messrs.
Payson of Portland and Bird of Rock
land, assured them that Maine was for
the Quay proposition. The Maine men
do not believe in having the Republican
patry controlled by people from states
that cast practically no Republican votes.
Senator Hanna's influence is probably
against the Quay amendment. it is
thought the convention will close to-
morrow.

Tonight General Bingham said that the
committee on rules would bring the reso-
luton before the convent ion in an
amended form providing for reference
Of the question Of changing the basis Of
representation 10 the national committee.
Tonight the resolution was the princi-
pal topic Of discussion among this dele
gates. Those from the Southern states
are working like beavers to stem the tide
which seems to be running towards the
adoption Of the resolution. The PROPOSE
tion has strong backing in the New Eng
land States, In New York and Pennyl-
vania, and in the Northwestern States.
So strong has the feeling become among
the Southern delegates that many Of
them are prepared to trade their votes for
the Vice Presidency for votes against the
resolution.

cumb TO the inevitable. And he appeared
resigned to his fate. Only once did he
seem to resent the popular acclamation.
That was when Senator wolcott, who Is
one of his ardent supporters, gave the
crowd the opportunity to cheer him by
naming him on the committee to escort
Henry Cabot Lodge, the permanent chair
man, to the platform He made no effort
to conceal the annoyance he felt at being
thus dragged Into view.
Senator Lodge, young, brilliant, al
ready famous as scholar, statesman and
historian, made q fine figure as he de-
livered his address as permanent chair
man. His finely poised head, close
cropped iron grey beard, delicately
chisslled features, and slender, athletic
frame, were clearly outlined. As he faced
the convention, his voice, though reso-
nlnt, has a down east raspiness, but his
delivery Is pleasing and forceful and his
speech was the scholarly clear-cut effort
expected of him. But, II covered ths
same general ground Senator Wo lcott
went over yesterday and though some Of
the fine periods elected applause, as a
whole, 1t did not stir any great enthusi-
asn. Neither did the reading of the plat.
form, a very strong document, by Sena-
tor Fairbanks, and for the same reason.
Both Indifferent forms were epitomes Of
the record ,of the administration upon
which the party will ask the country to
return IL to power-a record eloquently
placed before. the convention yesterday by
Senator Wolcott. The most striking incl
dent of the day was the appearance on
the stage OF fifteen Of the survivors Of the
original convention held In Locus street
In 1885 In this city. All the stirring
memories Of the exciting days when the
country was on the verge of the great
bloody conflict over slavery swelled up as
generation bearing in their hands the
faded, tattered flag Of generation that
has passed into history. Senator Hawley
OF Connecticut was the only one Of the
fifteen who still holds q prominent place
on the stage OF the present. The cheer
that went up at sight Of them shook the
building. 1t rose again, even more
tumultuously when their spokesman an
nounced their unwavering allegiance TO
the party they had helped TO bring forth.
Two historic gavels, one from the trees
under which the immortal Garfield won
his star at the battle of Middle Greek,
KY, another made from the wood of the
old capitol at Providence, X. l., and
adorned with bronze from the hull Of
Americas cup defender, Columbia, were
presented TO the convention during the
day.
Tomorrow the convention will meet at
ten O'Clock a. m, and its labors will
probably be over before three O'Clock in
the afternoon.

London, June 21.-3,50 a. m.-The re-
ports Of Admiral Seymour's arrival at
Pekin and of the safety Of the foreign
legations originating from Chinese
sources and cabled to this city from
Shanghai are still unverifled. However,
the italian consul at Shanghai has wired
to the italian foreign minister, Marquis
visconti venosta, that the legations are
safe.
The rebellion is spreading far and wide.
There is an impression In diplomatic
circles here and on the continent that the
allies have not yet grappled with the
situation effectively and that even $4,000
troops would be powerless to do much to
control 4, ,0O0, 900 square miles.
The latest story sent out by the Shan
ghai gossips is that Prince Taun, presi-
dent of the Tsung Ii Yamen, has burned
the imperial palace at Pekin and
murdered the Emperor and that the EN-
p 'ess Dowager has committed suicide.
The effect OF the bombardment Of the
Taku forts, as described by the Shanghai
correspondents, was CORY in the extreme
nothing less than "rivers Of blood" and
"mutilated corpses piled up inside the
forts.''

protection. There are 800 Americans
ashore. On May 81, the number OF for
eign troops at Pekin was 40. There are
COCO men ashore at Che Foo now ana
about 5000 troop, Russian, German and
English, have just ARRIVED.
Owing to the disinclination Of Act
ing Secretary Hackett to take the respon-
sibllity upon his shoulders Of making
public and portion Of Admiral Kempf's
despatch, II was not until late in the af-
ternoon and after the President had
given his approval that the rather meagre
statement Of the Admiral's communica-
tion was given out. 1t was then found to
contain little that is new.
Persistent inquiry developed the fact
that the date Of the cablegram was Che
Foo, June goth. The Admiral's state
ment that heavy firing was heard at
Tien Tsin on the even ing Of the l7th,
possibly is the basis for the report cur :
rent In Europe that Pekin was attacked
that day by the foreign column though
It seems incredible that the sound Of any
such artillery as could have been carried
by Admiral Seymour's light column
could have been heard 75 miles, the dis
tance from Pekin to Tien Tsin.
1t is possible that the Admiral means
that he himself at Taku heard firing In
progress at Tien Tsin, 30 miles distant.
Naval officers generally bitterly regret
that Admiral Kempff was not in the
lighting at Taku. Up to the receipt OF
his despatch they had continued to hope
that the American naval forces had taken
some part in repelling the attack of the
Chinese forts. But the Admiral's state
'other foreign forces" dismissed that
hope. The prevailing idea among the
naval Off GERS Is that the reduction Of
these forts was absolutely necessary to
the safe progress of any international
relief expedition to Pekin and that Ad-
miral Kempf should have found it to be
within his duty in the protection Of 'all"
American interests to have borne his
part In the burden. Much depends,
however, on the exact terms of his in
structions and in fact 1t is not yet known
definitely whether or not he actually re-
ceived all Of his instructions. The respon-
sible officials therefore, are making no
criticisms of the Admirars conduct.
The administration Is said to be very
much embarrassed because of the length
of time which necessarily will elapse
before the u. S. military reinforcements
reach China. When Gen. Macarthur at
Manila received instructions to send a
regiment of infantry to Taku, with all
possible dispatch, 1t was impossible for
him to comply Immediately because OF
raging storms. Had the orders for the
troops been issued when the troubles
at Pekin were reported to be inevitable,
1t is more than likely that troops now
would be on Chinese soil.
There Is every assurance that Gen.
Macarthur executed his instructions as
promptly as possible. An evidence OF
the total unpreparedness Of the foreign
colony in Pekin for the Boxer uprising
is afforded by a mail report to the State
Department. from Minister Conger In
which he wrote from Pekin, April 10,
1900, that he had succeeded In obtaining
permission from Tung Ii Yamen to ad-

0UAY's RESOLUTION.
1t VIII Cut Down the Power q
southern Republieans.


Philadelphia, June 20.-The resolution
.oday introduced by ex-senator Quay in
the convention relating to the re-arrange-
ment of the basis OF representation In fu-
ture national conventions has created a
sensation, particularly among the dele
cations from the Southern States.
1t was not known in just what form or
from what source the proposition would
be brought to the attention of the conven-
ton, bat after General Bingham of Penn
sylvania had presented the report of the
committee on rules to the convention,
Former Senator Quay Of Pennsylvania
rose and offered the following resolution
as an amendment to the committees re-
port:
"That hereafter each state shall be en-
titled to four delegates at large and one
additional delegate for each 10, 900 votes
or q majority fraction thereof cast at the
last preceding Presidential election for
the Republican electors and six delegates
from each organized territory and Dis
trict Of Columbia and that the methods
for the election Of such delegates shall be
provided for by the national committee" :"
The reading OF the resolution was re-
ceived with applause, particularly from
the New York, New England and Penn
sylvania delegations.
Among the delegates from the Southern
States there was manifest uneasiness. In
connection with the resolution Col. Quay
sent to the clerks desk the following:
statement showing number Of delegates
according to present basis as compared
with basis of one delegate for each 10, 200
votes or majority fraction thereof, cast
for President Mckinley in 1896.
Also compared with number of dele
gates based upon equal representation as
stated, to which is added four delegates

Philadelphia, June 21.-Maine-The
Maine delegation is still solidly for Long
for the Vice Presidency, Notwithstanding
the strong talk heard to the effect that
Roosevelt win sweep the convention when
his name is placed In nomination.
The delegates say they have promised
Massachusetts, that the Secretary of the
Navy shall get their votes and they will
keep the promise. Some Of the Maine men
are of the belief that II Roosevelt's name
Is placed in nomination then Maine will
not get a chance to vote for Massachusetts,
favorite son, as 1t win be all over before
Maine is reached in the rolls Of states.
Vermont-The delegates from Vermont
said tonight that they are for John ID.

that they are not sure what they might
do when 1t comes to voting, especially II
the present plan Of naming Roosevelt is
carried out ny the supporters of the New
York governor. They feel that Roosevelt
win sweep the convention II he is named.
Mlchigan-The Michigan delegation is
holding its own counsel tonight regard
ing the Vice Presidential situation.
From talks with several members of the
delegation, it was learned, however, that
they are divided between Long and Dolli-
yer, providing Roosevelt's s name is not
placed before the convention. II his
name is presented, 1t was the opinion Of
several that the delegation probably
would vote for the Empire State governor.

The annual report of the Board of
Managers of the Safe Hospital at Nor
ris Plains shows that during the year
1923 patients were admitted and 226
discharged, net increase of 81 over
last year. There are at the hospital
at present 1889, patients 500 men
and 69S women. The managers pro-
test BIN their report most earnestly
against the reception of criminal in
sane patients and say that prisoners
from the criminal classes who have
become insane are nearly all degene-
rates, many being even destitute of
every vestige of moral sense. To place
convicts and criminals in state hos
pital and thus force patients of good
reputation and habits to associate
with them the report argues is griev-
GUS affection and imposition.
