Ex-senator Ingalls,.

The career of one of the most
unique, brilliant anu uotable fs-
ures in American politics was
ended yesterday by the death of
Ex-senator John J. ingalls,, of
Kansas. Mr.. Ingalls, was keen
witted, hardheaded, self>reliant
New England youth, trans
planted to Kansas in time to
participate in framing the Con-
stitution of the embryo State,
and by force of native ability re-
inforced with an untiring in
dusty he easily forged to the
front and became a leader in the
politics and public affairs of his
adopted State.
Both lawyer and journalist by
profession he came early to the
United States Senate, iu which
during servics extending over
eighteen years he was easily one
of the members in the front rank,
serving a goodly term as Presi~
dent pro term, of that body. He
was the master in the use OF
biting satire in speech Or debate,
gift that contributed not a little
to his political downfall, for
| every sting inflicted by his keen
| sarcasm made him au enemy, and
| a man 10 public life needs friends
more than he needs enemies.
His retirement from the Sen.
ate in 1891 to make way for the
whiskered Populist, William. A.
PETER, was misfortune to the
public service of the country in
general, and to Kansas in par.
ticular. Kansas has found nc
real successor in force, ability
and intergrlty to ingalls,, and is
not likely to for long time tt
come, for men of the ingalls, cal
ibre are few and far between il
any age or country. After hi'
retirement from the Senate ht
| engaged chiefly in literary ant
| journalistic work. with marked
success and newspapers an,
magazine readers will regre
sincerely his death while still il
the height of his intellectua
powers.

ulCdbG
indianapolis, August 15.-TEs
first day s sessions of the "Libs

Anti-Imperialistic League were
somewhat disappointing, so fer
as the attendance of delegates
was concerned. About three hun
dred accredited delegates were
present and more are promised
for tomorrow.
In spite of the small attendane
the speeches of Edwin Burritt
Smith, the temporary chairman.
and George S. Boutwell,, the per-
manent president, brought forth
mnch enthusiasm.
The public meeting in the ev-
ening was much better attended
and the reading of Bourke Cock
rams letter was the signal for
tremendous applause.
But the greatest demonstration
of the convention so far came in
the afternoon when the venerable
George S. Boutwell,, Ex-Governor
of Massachusetts,, and Secretary
of Treasury in the Cabinet of
President Grant, concluded his
address as permanent chairman
with the declaration that he had
turned his back on the Republi-
can party and should report
Bryan for President. The dele
gates arose in their seats and
rendered the Ex-Governor an
ovation that lasted several min
utes.

Fighting Before Pekin

Fighting Before Pekin
is Reached.
Washington, Auaust 16. = AS
General Chaffee and the relief COL
umn draw near to Pekin the off,
cials of the State, War and Navy
Departments become more rel
cent in discussing the situation
and more reserved 10 giving out
the dispatches received from our
diplomatic, military and naval rep
resentasives IN China. The dis
patch received from Minister Con-
ger yesterday has not been made
public ond apparently will not be.
This emphasizes at once the i'm
portance of the dispatch in ques-
tion and the delicacy of the situa-
ton.
Not only will the officials in
question not give out a dispatch
whose publicity might have an
unfortunate effect, but they say
they might receive dispatches of
so grave a character from Mr..
Copger, General Chaffee or Ad-
miral Remey, that the mere pub
lication of the fact that the dis
patch had been received might be
improper. Indeed, Acting Sec
retary of State Adee Gays that
mischief might be done uncon-
sciously from speculations as to
the contents of dispatches known
to have been received, but which
had not been made public. For
this reason he regards it as proper
and necessary to withhold even
| the knowledge of the reception Of
some dispatches.
Military mon expect the next
news from General Chaffee to
come from eithar lung Chow or
Pekin. They recognize now, as
they have from the beginning,
that the raal pro olem Of the CAM
paign will be reached only when
| the relief column reaches Pekin.
The walls of that city are said to
be proof against field artillery,
and the relief column has no siege
artillery with it. 1. may be pos
sible to take the city by assault,
though the task OF scaling walls
fifty feet high may easily prove
impossible. It Is poss BILE a breach
may be made ty undermining the
walls and blowing them up.
| Meantime, how about the lega-
tioners? Their danger, always
| great, will become acute from the
moment the relief column is sight
ed by eentinels upon the walls OF
Pekin. The hope is that these in
authority 10 Pekin will be able te
restrain the murderous throngs ir
tdat city and get the legationers
safely in the hands of the relie'
column. News from Pekin is sgair
awaited with the same fearful anx
| iatv that marked the daYs of Jolly
