FOR AID
CHINESE EMPEROR ASKS THE
POWERS TO HELP SUP
PRESS REBELLION.
Affirms That the Boxers Are Not Pro-
tected by the Imperial Authorities
Allied Forces at Tien-Tsin Sus-
tain Heavy Losses from Bombard-
ment Of Chinese Artillery.

London, July IL, $3.50 a. m.-The
Shanghai correspondent of the Mail
~telegraphing yesterday (Tuesday),
says:
"A message has arrived here from
Emperor Kwang Hsu, dater July 2, by
courier from Picking to the viceroy of
Marking, who forwarded it here. 1t
is addressed to the Russian, English
and Japanese governments.
1T deplores the recent occurrences
and solemnly affirms that the foreign
governments are mistaken in suppos-
ing that the Chinese government Is
protecting the Boxers against the
Christians. The emperor further i'm
plores their aid in SURPRISING the e.
bellion and unfolding the existing
government.
in a separate dispatch to the ia
panese government, kwang Hsu eX-
presses deep regret for the murder of
legation Chancellor Sugyima.
These dispatches are taken to in
dictate that the emperor is in seclusion
and is ignorant of the seriousness of
recent events"

London, July II, 8 a.m.-If, as al
legged, the Boxer movement is losing
ground in Picking, it might have been
supposed that the Boxers would have
endeavored to send up reinforcements
from Tien-Tsin, but instead of that
they are still in great force in the
neighborhood of the latter place, and
are assisted by the Chinese imperial
troops, with ample, efficient artillery.
According to the Che Foo special,
the fighting around Tien-Tsin. July 3
and 4, was the severest yet experienced.
The British casualties were 80 or 40
killed or wounded. The Chinese had
81, 200 men attacking simultaneously
from the north, east and west, and
made excellent practice with over 100
guns. The defenders numbered 1000,
with scant supplies, and it was only
the presence Of the newly arrived ia
panese and Rususian guns that
prevented a disaster. One Rus
sian company of infantry, num-
bering 100 men, had lis kill
ed or wounded. The German contin-
gent also suffered heavily. By the ev-
ening of the 4th the situation was very
critical. The allies narrowly escaped
total defeat. Providentially, when
things were at their worst, a torren-
tial rainfall compelled the Chinese to
retire.
July 6, the rain having abated, the
Chinese renewed the attack, opening
fire on Tien-Tsin with two batteries
of four-inch guns, but the allies, aided
by two of H. NJ. S. Terrible's At guns,
succeeded in silencing the artillery, af-
ter eight hours fighting.
The chief difficulty of the allied
forces at Tien-Tsin is the absence of an
adequate water supply. The condition
of the river is pestilential.
The News Tien-Tsin correspondent
says the allies have decided to lombard
the native city, which they have hither-
to hesitated to attack, owing to the
heavy commercial interests involved.

San Francisco, Feb. H. Samoan ad-
vices received by the steamer Alameda

tions were somewhat discontinued,
the Mataafans blaming the Malietoans
for causing the trouble which brought
about this result. and vice versa. Re-
ports were received In Apia that at
Aana and Savaii the followers of Ma

turned to their homes must be driven

Of Mataafa men attacked the homes
of the Malietoans. routed the residents
out, set fire to the buildings and later

About ten years ago young widow
with three children went to New York,
seeking employment The eldest child,
boy of Is, had been before the mast,
and his boyish boast of the different
knots he could tie inspired an inven-
tive woman to order of him a screen
of tied rope. The effect was so odd
and beautiful that paying industry in
ropework resulted. BY the combined
efforts of the family, one daughter has
been enabled to study art in Paris, the
other has lately graduated from Cor
nell, and the boy is civil engineer Of
much promise in the government serv-
ice. MY resources are what we our
selves can do" said Frederick the
Great to his discouraged generals. The
dictum is no less applicable to each
inquirer today.

A curious explanation of the method
by which longleaf pine seedlings pro-
tect themselves against forest fires is
given by Clifford Pinchet, forester of
the department OF agriculture. In or
der to strengthen the struggle for
existence Of the young tree nature
gives 1t thickness Of bark not un-
commonly as great as that OF the wood
itself. but the young trees have a
further device for the promotion Of
their safety when growing in long
grass. as they almost always do. In
the first four or five years of its growth
the longleaf Seeding seldom reaches
a height Of more than four or five
inches above the ground. But while
the stem is thus making leisurely prog
ress the long needles shoot up and
bend over in green cascade, which
falls to the ground in a circle about
the Seeding. This barrier of green
needles not only burns with difficulty
but shades out the grass around the
young stem, and so prepares double
fire-resisting shield about the vitals OF
the young tree. This is the reason
why fire, which has kept down the
growth of evergreen oaks in parts OF
Florida, for example, has made a pure
forest of pines in a region where oaks
thrive splendidly when they are sc
placed as to be beyond the influence OF
forest fires.

DECISION FINsLLY REACHED.
Good Authority Says Gov. Taylor
viii Sign.


Frankfort. Ky, Feb. 11--Gov. Tay-
Tor did not sign the Louisville peace
agreement yesterday. He announced
moreover that he had no intention of
doing so for some time and did not
know whether he would sign it at all.
On the other hand the Democrats were
confident that he would atfiy his sigma
ture to the document. On the morning
train from Louisville came the Repub-
lican attorney. David w. Fairleigh.
and Judge John W. Barr both of
whom were members OF the Louisville
conference on the Republican side.
INN ediately on arrival Mr.. Fairleigb
called upon Senator Blackburn at the
Capitol hotel, and after a few words
with him went, i'm company with Judge
Barr and Gen. Daniel Lindsay to the
office of Gov. Taylor. \ conference
was held there from II o'clock until 1,
when an adjournn ent was taken.
Later in the afternoon the conference
was resumed and lasted until after
O'Clock. 1t was impossible to learn the
result of the protracted debate.
Late last night the situation was
somewhat changed. Adjt. Gen. Collier
was again called into Gov. Taylor's Of
flee about 8 o'clock and was in con-
sultation with him until a late hour
but would say nothing as TO what
transpired. From other and authori-
tative sources, however, 1t was learned
that a decision had finally been ar
rived at, and that the peace agreement
probably would receive the signature
Of Gov. Taylor inside of twenty-four
hours.
When the statement r.ade by Gov.
Taylor to the Associated Press was
taken to the council of Der ocrats who
were in the capital waiting for word
from him, the following statement was
made by one of the most prominent
Democrats in the state, who said that
he did not wish his name used as it
might embarrass those who were try
ing to induce Gov. Taylor to sign: 81
say he will sign, and he will sign with
