PROBABLY ALL KILLED.
Nothing Heard OF the Russian Force
Protecting the Railway Between
Charlton and TieIin.

st. Petersburg, July 26.-In the
opinion of the Russian general staff,
the protective force on the railway
between Charbin and Tielin must be
in critical position, since no definite
news of the situation there has been
received. All that is known is that
the wives and children of the work
men have fled to Charbin.
The detachment, which numbers
200, was at the end of June threatened
by $4,000 Chinese with artillery. AS
late as July II it had not been heard
of either at Charbin or Sungari, and
it is feared that the force has been
annihilated.
Col. ArtamonOff, of the Russian
general staff, a well-known traveller,
has been ordered to proceed to Kwang
Tung and then to place himself at the
disposition of the governor of Port
Arthur.

IT'S ALL m A NAME.
One Reason Why the Conservative
Negro Whitewater Lost His
Occupation.

seWhat's in name" asked Shakes.
peare Everything, may be answered, and
no one has made the answer more plain to
the ordinary mortal than Booker I. Wash,
ington, the noted colored orator, says the
Chicago Times Herald. While lecturlng IN.
Omaha last winter he paused in the midst
Of his remarks and asked:
How many negro boys in Omaha are
learning a mechanical trader
And from the vast audience came the re
ply:
mot one"
Then Mr.. Washington proceeded to tell
the negro boys what they should do. The
old colored man with his brush and pail Of
whitewash once made a good living. But
he was a Whitewater" The first thing
he knew a white man came along with an
assortment of brushes and several coIors OF
wash under fancy names. The white man
called himself an interior decorator,
and the old colored mans job was gone for
ever.
'You negro boys" continued Mr.. Wash.
ington, must become interior decorators,
for the withdrawing job is DONE"

CONCENTRATING TROOPS.
Gathering at San Francisco
for Duty in the Orient.

San Francisco, July 26.-San Fran.
cisco is now a point of concentration
for the troops gathered together
from all over the United States for
duty in the Orient. At military
headquarters everybody is working

airy on the Hancock July %, for

the 9th cavalry (colored), came in.
This completes the concentration of
the regiment here.
The three companies, A, c and d,
18th infantry, which are just back
from Manila, will remain at the Pre-
sidio and not go to Montana, as was
expected.

Nav CAN on the Bovcott.

st. Louis, July 26.-The Litho-
graphic Artists and Engravers' as
ISOLATION has called off the boycott
against the ST. Louis Transit Co.;
declared that in the future no fines
should be levied against its members
for patronizing the ears; decided that
no more assessments should be levied
in the interests of the street car
strikers. 1t is also claimed that
similar action will be taken by at
least one, and possibly more, labor
organizations which will meet this
week. The action is regarded as sig
niticant in that possibly it presages
general calling off of the boycotts
instituted against the transit com
pany by labor unions.

INDIAN DEPREDATIONS.
They Have Deliberately Set Fire to
Valuable Timber and Are
Strengthening Game.

Kalispell, Mont, July 26.-One of
the worst forest fires ever known in
Northwestern Montana is now raging
III the Swan Lake country, on the
western part of the Lewis and Clarke
forest reserve. Gus Mosler, superin-
tendent of the reserve, reports that
the Indians deliberately set fire to the
timber and are slaughtering the
game. He will proceed against the
perpetrators.
Within the space of 30 miles up and
down the river, he says, there are over
30 fires now burning fiercely, includ-
ing the finest white pine and cedar
on the reserve, and that it is almost
impossible to estimate the damage.
AS fast as one fire is eXtinguished an
other is started, and his rangers are
almost worn out.

FIGHTING IN COLOMBIA.
tween Government Troops and
Insurgents Around Panama.

Colon, Colombia, July ga ter
rife engagement still continues be-
tween the government troops and
the insurgents around Panama, but

ground. Many have been killed and
wounded, and four hours armistice
was agreed upon to attend the wound
ed and bury the dead.

Wednesday afternoon with reinforce
ments for the government, numbering
1000. They were brought by Gen.
Campos Serrano, governor of the de-
partment.
The cable between Colon and Ja-

from Consul General Goodnow, but
II is stated that it contains nothing
to clear the situation at Picking. Mr..
Goodnow says that Ii Hung Chang
will remain in Shanghai for the pres
ent, and will conduct his negotiations
from that city. There is an intima-
ton that Earl Ii is detained at the
request of the foreign officials, al
though this was not so stated by Act
ing Secretly Hill.
No information has been received
from the Chinese legation or Chi
nese government in response to Pres
ident McKinley's reply to the en-
peror.
No answer has yet been received
from the second dispatch sent to Min
lister COnger through Minister WI,
but it is stated that when a reply is
received it will probably set at rest
all doubts as to its authenticity.
London, July 26.-Mr. Conger's let
ter, the substance of which has been
transmitted to the United States sec
rotary of the navy through Capt.
Thomas, of the United States cruiser
Brooklyn, has increased the belief in
London that there is no hope for the
foreign legations in Picking, and that
the elaborate fabric of the dispatches
which the Chinese are building to per-
suade the civilized world that the
ministers are safe is only intended to
enable them to gain time to complete
preparations for warfare.
The Shanghai correspondent of the
Daily Mail asserts that a Chinaman
who was employed at the British le-
cation as writer and interpreter has
escaped from Peking to Niu Chwang,
and that he declares that at the time
he left Peking most of the members
of the legations were dead and the
condition of the others was hopeless.
He says that Sir Robert Hart, director
of Chinese imperial maritime customs,
died on July 2.
The correspondent goes on to say:
"No other dates are given in the mes
sage from Niu Chwang. The leading
Chinese newspaper here published a
dispatch declaring that it was all over
with the members of the legations.
The president of minor board at Pc
king wrote to relative in Shanghai,
under date of July 9, saying: The
foreign legations are still uncaptured,
but, owing to the daily fighting, it is
reported that only about 800 persons
are left alive in the legations, and if
there is any delay in the arrival of
the relief force, fear that none will
be left to receive 1T
This letter is regarded in Shang-
hal as authentic. Strange enough, it
says nothing of any assistance to the
legations by Prince Ching or Gen.
Lung Lu."
While these brief sidelights as to
the fate of the Europeans leave little
ground for hope, Shanghai sends a
batch of reports indicative of prepa-
rations for hOstilities on the part of
the Chinese. 1t is alleged that the
Yang Use viceroys have sent deputies
to Shanghai to inquire as to the pros
pect of raising foreign loan, osten-
sibly to pursue military operations
against the Boxers, whose movement
is extending rapidly southwark with
constantly growing strength, and had
reached point where the provinces
Of Shan Tung, Ho Nan and Shan 81
meet, leaving behind it a trail of
burned missions and murdered Chris
tians.
