CRISIS FAST APPROACHING.
Situation in China Steadily Becom-
ing Darker.

The Shanghai correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says he is still firmly
convinced that the ministers are safe,
but, with the exception of an alleged
message from the Japanese legation
in Picking dated July 10, brought by a
rnner, saying hat the legation was
still defending itself, nothing has yet
been published giving anything in the
nature of proof. On the other hand,
the daily incoming reports of the mas
sacre of missionaries and foreigners
leaves only the most slender thread
upon which to hang a hope. The gen.
eral situation is steadily becoming
darker, and a crisis is said to be fast
approaching. It is rumored in Shang-
hal hat 10000 Chinese troops have
been secretly moved into that vicinity,
and that the commander of the Kiang
Yu forts has been ordered to fire II

number of foreign warships ascending

floods near Tien-tsin are diminishing.
It is reported that Russians from Har-
bin have arrived at a point $50 miles
north Of Peking after severe fighting.

MYSTERIOUS DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
Two Prominent Citizens OF Waco,
Tex. Found Dead.

Two Prominent Citizens Of Waco,
Tex, Found Dead.
Waco, Tex, Aug. IA mysterious
double tragedy occurred at an early
hour yesterday at the residence Of
M. G. Kingsbury, one of Waco's most
prominent citizens. The dead bodies
of Duncan G. McLennan, Jr., and
Myron C. Kingsbury, brothers-in-law,
were found in. a room, their throats
cut from a to ear. The fact that
neither body was injured or bruised
except the throat indicate that no
struggle took place, and it is the gen.
eral opinion that the two men were
murdered. Mrs. Kingsbury, wife Of
one.of the dead men, made the follow
ing statement: "About q O'Clock, I
think 1t was. I was suddenly awak-
ened by some kind of noise emanating
from my husbands room across the
hall. l sprang up and ran into the
room. Before me lay my husband,
who had just drawn his last breath,
and Duncan, my brother, only drew
one or two breaths after I entered the
room. I saw no m run from the
room and cannot solve the mystery"
The police are at work on the case.

Miners Force Him to Reduce Their
Hours of Labor.
Butte, Mont, July %. - Senator
w. A. Clark reduced the hours of labor
Of his miners in h famous United Verde
mines at Jerome, Ariz., a few days ago
because the men had demanded a reduc-
ton in hours or an increase in wages.
When Mr.. Clark arrived in Jerome a
committee Of miners called at the hotel
and he refused to see them, whereupon
the men became violent and made
threats. Mr.. Clark's superintendent stood
the men of with a promise to give them
q definite answer the next day. The
promise was not made good at the time
and place appointed, and the miners all
quit work Inc ven to the hotel and
again demanded recognition. After some
parleying the reduction Of hours from
ten to eight was granted, but h next
day it was announced that thereafter
but two shifts Of men instead Of three.
as formerly, would be worked. which
reduced the number Of men working
about one-third.
