DRUNK GETS A BAD BEATING
MECCA SALOON THE SCENE OF A
DIsGRACEFUL AFFAIR.
The Unknown Inebriate Can't Tell
Anything About the Trouble and
No Arrests Are Made. -

Still too drunk to give his name and
too severely beaten to tell anything
about the occurrence, an inebriate got
a terrible drubbing late yesterday
afternoon at the Mecca saloon on Main
street. He is still. at the police station
awaiting his return to sensibility, and
the fellow who did the punching, &C
cording to his own admissions, has
not, for some unknown reason. been ar
rested yet by the police.
1t seems that the drunken individual
entered the saloon and began to create
such a disturbance that 1t was neceS-
Sary for the bartender to put nm out
A young railroader named .Doty ana
companion were passing by the saloon
as the drunk was being elected, ana
as they passed. Doty says, the drunk
struck him in the back. Mr.. Doty SAID
that he turned to see what was the
matter, and the fellow rushed at hlIn'
calling him a vile name and MT nun
again. The latter then gTappled Win
the drunk and threw him down IN the
door of the saloon The drunk arose
and as he did so Doty struck him and
knocked him down. In falling the
drunk struck the screen door and
knocked the glass out.
Doty began to kick the man on the
head, but was pulled away by some by
ISLANDERS. Others rushed up and held
the two apart until a policeman ar
rived.
According to the story of a witness
the drunk was turned loose for mo-
ment by the man who was holding him.
and in making an effort TO get at DOty
he fell and struck his head on the iron
foot rail, rendering. him semi-cOn-
scioUs He was picked up by two OF
the bystanders and carried to the rear
of the saloon to await the arrival OF
the police patrol. The battered drunk
was taken TO the station and cared for
His face was badly bruised and
skinned. but none of his injuries are
at all serious.
Notwithstanding the fact that Mr
Doty says ne is the party who beat the
man. and that his story is borne out
by witnesses, others who claim to have
seen the affair state that il was the
bartender who did the work.
There seems to be a difference OF
opinion among the witnesses of the
affair as to who the guilty party is
and meanwhile the police have made nc
arrests.

WI FEELS DEEP REGRET.
Chinese Minister Hears of Tien Tsin
Battle.

Washington, July 16.-News of the
battle of Tien Tsin, as brought by the
Associated Press cables direct from the
field, was conveyed to the Chinese min
lister today The minister followed the
recital with rapt attention, interrupt
ing with expressions Of astOnishment
and profound regret at the startling
developments.

Mr.. WI declared that to no Ameri-

Although Minister Mu made no pub

able TO give what is said I'D be the "s-

Herald from Washington says: Should
the American navy be needed, for active
service in Chinese waters, it viii be
able to do effective work. Few ships
are undergoing repairs, and work on
them is being steadily pushed, so that
| they will be ready for service in a COM

Rear Admiral Charles O'NeiIl, captain
of the ordnance, is arranging for the

Colt machine guns to China.
Lieutenant General Miles is carefully
looking out for the comfort of officers
and men serving in China. He said to-
day:
The climate in the neighbOrhood of
/ T1en TSin and Pekin is subject to great
| changes. 1t is intensely hot in summer
and extremely cold in winter, the tenn
perature in the latter season often fall
ing to 40 degrees below zero. It is.
therefore, necessary that troops should
be supplied with warm clothing and
plenty of fuel. Furthermore, it may be
that they will be stationed indefinitely
in China; how long We cannot at this
moment tell. 1t is, therefore, desirable
that they shall be supplied with tents
and tent floors Everything that can
be fOreSeen will be done for the COM
fort of the men,
General Miles reiterated that he was
not going to China. A friend pointed
out that the American force in China
would be too small for an officer of the
grade of lieutenant general to COM
mand. General Miles would be glad to
go could he be in supreme command
of the allied forces. but this is impos-
sible. in view of the determination of
Japan to send a field marshal

JAPS PROMINENT
AT TIEN TSIN

Washington, July 16.-The Japanese
legation today received a cable from
the minister for foreign affairs, dated
Toxic, July 10, giving some belated de-
tails of the fighting at Tien Tsin on
July 8, when the town was still in pos
session of the allies.
According to this cable, there are
1900 japanese troops at Tien Tsin.
More than half the allied troops in the
attack on Tien Tsin on the 18th, there
fore, were probably Japanese.
The cable is as follows: ION the
3rd inst. a large body of Chinese SOL
diers appeared before Tien Tsin and
attacked the northern part of the set
tlement which was guarded by Rus
sian troops. The japanese sent to their
aid, at the Russian generals request,
one battery of artillery and two COM
panies of infantry. After heavy can
nonade they silenced the Chinese guns
and finally repulsed the enemy.
The japanese losses in this engage
ment were two captains killed and
about thirty on-cOmmisSioned officers
and men killed and wounded.
Major General Fuku Shima has now
under him at Tien Tsin about 1000
Japanese troops"

COEUR D'ALENE UP.
Federation of Labor Executive Com

Denver, Colo, July 16.-The executive
committee of the American Federation
of Labor convened in regular quarterly
meeting in this city today.
The testimony given before the con-
gressional investigating committee
concerning the Occur d'Alene strike
will be fully considered and action
taken.
Among other things a decision is
expected with reference to making an
eight-hour day test. The last cOnven-
ton at Detroit empowered the body to
choose a trade in which the fight
should be made, and the machinists
and horseshoers are both after the Sc
lection. If the former are chosen it
may Jeopardize the international agree
ment recently signed by them In
either case the war will be general.
The Chicago building trades lockout
was considered. but no action taken.
The matter will be taken up again to-
morrow, as will also the st. Louis

JAPANESE ARE PROUD.
Overjoyed at Part of Their Troops
at Taku.

San Francisco, July 16.-The Asso-
ciated Press correspondent at Yoko-
hama sends the following letter by the
steamer CoDtic, which arrived today
from the Orient. Under date of June
80 he says:
Immense satisfaction is being in
dulged in because of the prominent
part being played by Japan in the cap
tuTe of the Taku forts. It's force hap
pened to be in the rear of the column
at first, but when the attack was on
the japanese commander, perceiving
short cut to the walls, rushed his
troops ahead, and carried the ramparts
by an impetuous assault, thus, though
paying for the victory by his life, en-
aiding his flag to be the first displayed
uDOn the stronghold.
The troops modified by the govern
ment here will number nearly 10000.
and 1t is safe to assume that within
two weeks at the latest, with the large
forces of Russians and British on the
way, the allies will have at their dispo-
sition an army of 100000 men, which

refuge for the foreign women and chill

used as a store ship for the arms of
the allied land forces and the foreign
contingents generally. At the time of
the bombardment the Atago could not
join in, owing to the fact that her an
chorage was very remote from the
forts 81
One of the enemy's shots hit the

The fire from the forts was terrible

TUAN SLAUGHTERS
5000 CHINAMEN

Washington. July ia report has
reached official quarters here of
shocking tragedy in Pekin not hereto
fore shown in any of the reports from
China. This appears in a paper printed
in the Chinese text, and although 1t IS
in no way official and may be part of
the exaggerated gossip of the situation,
it has none the less attracted the atten-
ton of the Chinese minister here.
According to this report, 5000 Chinese
officials of Pekin, engaged in the gov
eminent service, united in petition to
Prince Tuan to spare the foreigners and
afford them every protection. Prince
Tuan ordered that those who had
united in The petition be killed The
order was thereupon carried out.
