SHOOT BOXER LEADERS.
Over Score OF Prominent Boxer,
Arc Executed by Allies.


Pelsin, Nov. 1.-THE treasurer Of the
province Of Pechili one Chinese gem
eral and q Chinese colonel, who had
been found by a court martial to be re-
Hponsible for the slaughter Of seventeen
American and English missionaries at
Paoting-F Flu and the torture OF four
others who were rescued alive, were
shot, together with twenty porminent
Boxers, with the approval of Field
Marshall Count Won Waldersee.
All THE allied soldiers who partici.
pated in the punitive expedition to Pa.
oting Fur have returned here, except.
ing the Germans and French, who re.
main as a permanent garrison.
Punishment was inflicted by the re-
turning troops on other notorious Box
er strongholds on the route.
In this just punishment for the
fmghtful atrocities on American mis-
sionaries and native Christians the
United States took no part. Its 400
troops remained idle in camp here. Now
that the cause OF party policies at home
has been served with the sacrifice by
the Washington government OF national
prestige in China, and after the nisera-
BILE fasco from following the Russian
lead in scutbling out OF Pekin before
good government was restored, Amer
lea Will perhaps Join Germany and En-
gland in their present effective policy
OF stern punishment OF the Chinese Of
ftcials and help in establishing order
and preserving the integrity of China.

sionartes wild in the future. as in the
past. be profnptto claim full participa-

ITALIAN POLITICS.
Government May Be Obliged to Act
Against Opposition.

New York. June 5.-The Herald's cable
dispatches say that while the Italian
ministry apparently was sustained in the
elections, the results was really a radical
victory. The Herald's Rome CORES
pendent says: The majority of the for
mer parliament, as we'll as it's former
president, Colombo, We're beaten, Signor
Colombo losing his seat at Milan.
AT last the government understands it's
mistake, in not having taken advantage
on May Is. of the law which was voted
or April 3, to put an end to obstruction.
The advanced parties have gained
nearly twenty seats and the north will be
in a great part opposed to the govern
ment.
In short. the result foreseen by all SEN
that the government now is going to
find itself obliged either to act against
the opposition which has become still
more powerful. dissolve parliament for
a long time and govern by decree, or
finally the Pelloux ministry will nave to
resign without anybody being able to see
what ministry can replace it with any
chance of lasting.
There are no other means of escaping
from the present situation, which has
become graver than ever on account of
the mistake of the government and con-
s%ervatives of all shades.
Rome reelected it's five present depu-
ties-three conservatives and two social
lists.
Milan has shown by a perceptible in

WHEN A MOB TAKES CONTROL

From the Chicago Record.
 The mob that terrorized the placid little town of Akron, O.. causing the death of several and the wounding of many, was mainly composed of unreasoning fools and disreputable scoundrels. Professing to seek vengeance on an imprisoned negro for an assault upon a child, it's course would have been reprehensible if it had limited itself to hunting down the actual criminal but from the moment when the leaders learned that the negro had been taken to a place of safety the continued attacks upon the jail gave unmistable evidence of the brutal nature of the men who were en- gagged in the disturbance. They committed murder and arson, not to get at a wretch against whom their minds were infiamed by sympathy for his victim. but to punish officers who had performed their duty This characteristic stamps the participants in the affray as toughs of the lowest type If Ohio is to be cursed with any more such affairs it will be due to the indiffer- ence shown by the respectable and law abiding citizens who condoned the proceed ings that recently occurred at Mansfield
 Mob law in the South has been severely condemned by the press throughout the country in circumstances less objectiona- ble than those at Akron. While the crimi- nal sought after was a negro, 1t is proba- ble that racial animosity had little or nothing to do with the excesses. The crim- inal was out of reach before the deadly work was done. Ungovernable brutality, directed against the officers of the law, was the salient characteristic of the Akroa mob, and the continuation of its work on the second day indicates that it was a gathering of criminals and not an assem-. blaze of impulsive good citizens moved to wrath by shocking crime. Not until the murderers and thugs who defied the law in Akron have been severely punished will 1t be possible for Ohio to say much about mob rule in other communities.

SrAINKs sEPTEMBER VOTE

From the Lewiston fMe) Journal.
 In 1896 the Republican plurality in Maine was 4S.oe0 against 12,Oe0 four years before But the Republican gain was only 15. GOO while the Democratic loss was 21 900. Com pairing 1886 with 1883, the Republican plu- rality was 48,0oO, instead of 1s,ooO But tbe gain in the Republican vote was only 5000; the Democratic loss was 27,OOo. In other words, N,00o Democrats stayed at home. The Republicans probably can hold their vote, but if these 27,00o Democratic stay-at- homes fail to stay at home this year. the Republican majority will be so much smaller, but will show no absolute loss. SO far as general party divisions are con- cerned. Everybody knows the normal Re- publican majority in Maine is not over 17,ooo, if indeed so high as that. The ex- tent to which these 27,009 stay-at-home Democrats will participate in the Septem- Der election, of course, is uncertain; but it IS certain the Democrats are making more effort to get out this vote than they made four years ago.

Surviving Generals of the War.

There is now assembled at Chicago the fading groups of the Federal army in the civil war. All the great generals of that side of the greatest internal strife in the history of the world have passed out of this world. Grant and Sherman and Sheri- dan and a long list of lesser men are dead; but there still survive some men who held large commands in that war. Schofeld who rose to be commander in chief of the regular army, is easily the ing Federal soldiers. He led the Federal forces at Franklin, Tennessee, and he com manded wing of Sherman's army in Georgia. General Howard who led the right wing of Sherman's army is also liy- ing, and so is General Sckles who com manded a corps at Gettysburg and so Is General Wilson whose destructive raid gave Alabama a taste of war that she had before escaped, and last but not least
 
 General Sigel should be named, for this German-Amercan led a corps on various occasions. never, however, with brilliant On the. Confederate side death has been not less kind General James Longstreet rose to the rank of Lieutenant General He saw more service, and held larger com mands, than any Confederate officer now living, although General John B. Gordon saw steady and hard service in Lees army, and General Joseph B. Wheeler was never quiet in the cavalry arm of the Con- federate service. Both became Lieutenant- Generals. General F'itzhugh Lee who led the cavalry corps in the army of Northern Virginia, and General Stephen D. Lee who commanded a corps, are also living tull of years and honors Some of these veterans bid fair to live until they can look back on a full half century since the close of the great struggle. -sfhs &afs
