Robert Hart, the Englishman In charge
OF the Chinese customs service ana was
or undouDted authenticity. 1t represented
the situation of the legationers as des-
perate and implored help. The last word
from Minister Conger came to the state
department from Picking under date of
June II. At that time he asked that
Seymours international relief column,
which was even then doomed to fall
should signal its approach when near Pc
King. That was Just one month and
three days ago, and 1t would be an I'M
precedented defense for such an made

NOT a REPLY TO W.. ~
Minister Wu's cabegyam from Sheng,
above given, should not be taken as an
answer TO the cipher message he for
warded at Secretary Hays request TO
China In the effort to get 1t Trough TO
Minister COnger That message went To
Yonan Shih Kai, the governor Of the
province Of Shantupg. That oIicIaI has
replied informally that he has no news
himself, but 1t is assumed that he will
take prompt steps to forward the cipher
message. His status at this critical juno
ture is unfortunately not beyond su5-
picion though Mr.. WI retains full con,
fldence in him. Secret aTy Long had two
cablegrams today from China, but he was
inclined TO set negative value upon
them because they made no mention of
massacre of the lcgatiOners in Picking. He
reasoned that Admiral Reruey was in
good position TO get as early news as
any one of such an event. The admirals
message was from Chcfoo OF today's date,
though as he is supposed 10 be himself
at Taku, IT is assumed that It. was sent
from that place yesterday The admiral
stated that he had ordered the Buffalo to
Taku. She was coming out to the Cri-
ent by way of Suez, and was TO report
for orders at Singapore. where she was
to be directed to proceed to Manila or to
be DETECTED to North China. She is car

The second dispatch came from Capt
Bowman of the gunboat Castine which

dated today. IT was as follows:

1t IS supposed at the navy department
signaled this information from his ship
Chefoo to the Kure docks, where the
Oregon is bound is about 200 miles, ana
as Chefoo was passed last Thursday It
is estimated here that the crippled battle
ship is now nearing the Straits of Shin,
oniseki, through which she must pass to
get up to the docks.

GLOOMY AT WASHINGTON.
The Worst Is Feared and the News
Received MeaSer.

The Worst Is Feared and the News
Received MeaSer.
WASHINGTON, July 15.-Such news as
came to Washington today from China
was distinctly bad 1t consisted Of a
cablegram to Minister WI from Sheng,
the imperial director of posts and tele-
graphs at Shanghai and, according to
the minister, was in reply to the urgent
message he himself had sent yesterday
to that official, asking him to try to Sc
cure some news from the Chinese capital.
This cablegram Minister Wa regarded as
Of sufficient Importance to carry in per
son directly to Secretary HAY, who was
waiting at his home for news The mes
sage as received from the cipher was as
follows:
LEGATIONS in PERIL.
"Peking-News of July says that Gen.
Tuau F'uh Sicn, in disobedience of i'm
perlal orders, was about 10 use guns. Lee
cations and the government will be in
peril"
CONFIRMS GooDNoWs REPORT.
This news is corroborative of that con-
tanned in a recent cablegram from Con
sui General Goodnow, at Shanghai, al
though the consul generals dispatch gave
his Picking news the date of July G. say
ing that the final attack upon the lega-
tions with guns was about to begin July
Z. 1t is surmised here that Mr. Goodhow
got his news from Sheng, who is certain
ly In position to secure the first news
from Peking.4 Aside from the gloomy
forecast given Of the end of the terrible
struggle Of the legationers against the
inevitable. the significant feature Of the
message is the coupling of the fate Of
the imperial government with that of the
foreign ministers Officials here get some
satisfaction from this portion OF the dis
patch. as 1t sustans them in the position
they have held from the first that the
Chinese government is not at war with
Christendom. but Is confronting a formid-
able insurrection.
BREAKING IT GENTLY.
There still remains suspicion that
while Mr.. WI is undoubtedly acting with
perfect sincerity, that Sheng, who was
represented to be a clever and a lust
man, may kSSow more OF the actual hap
penings at Picking than he is willing to
reveal at once 1t is feared he is trying
to prepare the way for the disclosure Of
terrible news, hoping that by letting it
come out gradually the blow will not fall
with such severity, and perhaps with
such disastrous results to his own people
as might be the case if the whole story
would be impaired to the world at once.
This news, 1t may be noted, comes en-
tirely from Chinese sources.

is an ardent Democrat. He had wooed
and won the affections of Mrs. Pero, his

would stay and she contended that it
would not.
The mistress of the house won out,

Tickets In Pennsy1vania-Both Par

New YORK, Nov. 5.-Republicans and
Democrats are resting on the eve of the
battle. Since Saturday night there has
been no developments in political circles
In this state. The tired hosts of the
Republican paraders, weary as the re-
suit of the long waits and the march in
the rain on Saturday, made Sunday a
day of rest in the full sense of the word.
The Democrats, after their parades
and massmeetings in the various assem-
bly, districts of the borough of Manhat-
ton on the same day, were also glad to
note the coming of Sunday.
Only at the headquarters and at the
leading political clubs were there any
traces of political activity. Those in
charge of the campaign employed their
time.in debating statements for publica-
ton and in writing final letters of warn
ing, of admonition or of instruction to
party leaders in the city or state.
Both the Republican and Democratic
leaders revised their figures and election
estimates and both sides moved them
up q peg or two On the Democratic
side Richard Croker claimed the borough
of Manhattan by 10000 plurality The
Democrats have not given out the result
Of their canvass by counties and assem-
bly, districts, but it is understood that
they hope to carry the state by from 20,-
600 to 10000 plurality.
The Republican leaders, on the other
hand, claim the state by not less than
100000 plurality. Senator Depew, who
today from tour through rural
New York is of the opinion that the
will come down to Harlem
river with Is, 500 plurality.

kentucky Is Doubtful.

LOUISVILLE, Nov with a quiet
that is almost painful the Democrats
and Republicans throughout Kentucky
are resting on their oars and awaiting
the opening of the polls tomorrow. Both
sides continue claiming a decisive vic
tory and landslide either way need
not be surprising. Conditions have so
changed and party lines have been so
shattered since the last general election
that any forecast as to the outcome is
practically of no value.
