sreeiai cable Despatch 10 THE SrN.
LONDON, July 7l.-The MESA OF Minister
ConRer TO the Stat Department at Washington
has thrown all other Chinese news temporarily
into the shade In Official circles practically no
credit is placed In the message.
The newspapers follow suit and arguments as
to the absence OF date. the possibility that 1t
Is an old message reda'ed, or that Prince
Tuan obtained pos ession OF the archives
Of the American legation and used
the code In forwarding the message
himself. and others equally obvious are brought
forward against the probability OF its genuine
meas. The oflcisls here are also confident that
II 1t was possible for Mr.. Conger 10 get
message through the other Ministers would not
have failed to do 90 also.
Nevertheless, the despatch caused a sem
sat!on In England es being q voice from
the tomb. to which several Of the newspap-
ers compare It. Even assuming that
the message Is genuine It is pointed
out that II only means that the distress OF the
foreigners In Pekn has been and will be pro-
longed. as immediate assisanoa for them IL
apparently absolutely impossible
The despatch from the Emperor Of China
asking for the mediation Of France ID con-
sidered to be oniy second In startling interest.
and it Is equally puzzlng, There s
nothing to show whether the Emperor"
Ia the real young ruler OF China or
Prince Tuan. Wonder is expressed why France
was appealed to. and the only deduction drawn
from the appeal is that the palace party. or
whoever Ia now at the head Of the Chinese Gov
eminent. Is beginning to recognize the danger
in which 1t stands.
The Telegraph expresses the feeling Of a CON-
siderable portion Of the general public when

would make common cause with China
He pointed out that the interests Of

that II China falls. Japans position will be un-
tenable. China not being alone the object Of
the ambitious estern Powers The Emperor
added that II was impossible now for China to
take the proper measures to avert danger, and
she was therefore constrained to rely for sup
port on Japan.
The Mikado in his reply said that the action
Of the insurgents was q complete violation Of
International law respecting diplomatists. The
Chinese Government Aould suppress the disor-
ders and rescue the Ministers. He added
that Japan was cordially friendly with China.
and her only object In despatchins troops was
to restore order and rescue the foreigners In

Of the Antitrust law passed by the last Legis-
latire Of this State Most Of the corporations

piled with the now law in this respect are some
OF the largest trusts in this country.
Attorney General Smith said to-day that II
complaint is made Of these trusts after they have
sworn TO the AFFIDAVIT they will be prosecuted
for perjury. 1t Is not expected, however.
that the question will be raised and tho indica-
tons are that the great trusts Of the country
will continue to do business in Texas notwith-
standing the radical legislation adopted In

The enumeration OF tho inhabitants OF the

for the Federal census shows that the
population on June was 2.i0O0Oo persons In
round numbers II Is not possible to give the
exact figures. because the count has not been
tabulated In Washington yet. and until 1t is
there Is no way OF finding out Just how many
persons there are In the two boroushs. But the
figures given here are very close 10 the total
which will soon be announced by the Census
Bureau.
The Department OF Health estimates the
population Of the two boroughs at 2.is2.oii on
July 1. The Health Department estimate Of
the whole city is 1855, ,6e4. What the Federal
figures for the entire municipality will be can
not be told yet II is likely that they are
smaller than the Health Departments estimate
in about the same proportion that the figures
for Manhattan and The Bronx differ: or. In
other words. that the population Of ths entire
city is about 3.5OO.0OO. The Health Depart
ments estimates, based on tenement house
statistics are used tor determining the death
rate and in the compilation Of vital statistics
The Federal census OF 1890 showed popula-
ton OF 1915, ,30i in what is now Manhattan and
The Bronx II was charged then that the count
was not careful or complete. but the figures
Stood and on them the reapportonment Of

the present census Is considerably over 500, 900.
and may be nearer coo 900. The increase in the
cty's population since 1880 Is 100000 In round
numbers. the census of that year showing that
there were i,2Os 200 persons in the community
