Late Saturday night Elbert G. Pack

made an additional affidavit that the

not to bring him here to serve civil

Mr. Cooper said last night that he

Wilkinson could obtain his release

Wilkinson, it is understood, has ex-

he will be successful.

PEKII'S FALL CONFIRMED
BY GENERAL CHAFFEE

Washington, Aug. 2O.-From Gen.
Chaffee the war department has receiv-
ed official confirmation OF the fall OF
Pekin and the rescue Of the besieged
legationers The dispatch OF the
American commander was not long
and contained few details, but the un-
concealed satisfaction with which it
was received by officials OF the admin
istration indicated clearly the anxiety
that had been engendered by his pro-
longed silence. The explanation Of bis
silence is suggested in adviees received
by the navy department from Admiral
Remey, who says the telegraph line be-
tween that point and Pekin is inter-
rupted.
Following Is the text Of the dispatch
from Gen. Chaffee, dated Pekin, Aug.
Is, as made public by the war depart
ment:
I'VE entered legations grounds at
o'clock last night with Fourteenth and
light battery Eight wounded during
days fighting; otherwise all we'll"
1t will be noted that the dispatch in
dicates that the American troops en-
tered the legation grounds at o'clock
in the evening Of the 14th inst. BY the
Washington officials and by the several
legation officials to whom it was shown
the date Of Gen. Chaffee's communica-
ton is regarded as an error of trans
mission. All previous advices, official
and unofficial have indicated that the
legations we're relieved on the evening
of the 18th "wednesday after a day
of sharp fighting.
The fact that only the Fourteenth
infantry and Riley's battery entered
the city, as shown by Gen. Chaffees
dispatch, does not indicate that the
Ninth infantry and the marines, who
were so conspicuously gallant through
out the advance upon the capital, did
not participate in the engagement
which resulted directly in the rescue Of
the besieged legationers.
Only two battalions Of the Four
teenth regiment are with Gen. Chaffee.
They comprise about 500 men. This
would indicate that only about one
third of Gen. Chaffee's force actually
had entered the city at the time he
sent his dispatch.
Admiral Remey's dispatch is as fol-
lows:
Inner City Being Bombarded.
"Taku, 18th. Telegraph line to
pelin interrupted. Information, Jap
anese sources, empress dowager de-
tanned by Prince Yungedo, inner city,
which is being bombarded by allies.
Chaffee reports entered legation
grounds evening 14th. Eight wounded
during the days fighting; otherwise all
we'll"
The startling feature of the dispatch
is that fighting within the city of Pc
kin was continuing. The inner, or, as
it is popularity known, the forbidden
city, evidently had not been taken. 1t
is surrounded by a massive wall OF
solid masonry, more than 20 feet high,
and it is not regarded as surprising
that the Chinese should make their
final stand within its shadows. Prior to
the receipt of the dispatch it was ac-
cepted generally as a fact that the
dowager empress. in company with the
