The Messenger then announces that
the czar's approval has been given for
M. de Giers to start for Tientsin
with his entire staff and the ma
rine guard on condition that the ex-
listing government at Peking and the
emperor afford them some guarantee
that the journey can be undertaken

At the same time M. de Giers is ex-

New Ulm review., 1900-08-15

this dispatch by the consul refers to
the file date when the message left
Tsinan and does not fix the time when
it left Peking by courier.
While the state department. does not
attempt to fix date upon which the
Conger message left Peking, the Off
cials are inclined to believe that it was
one of the messages smuggled out of
Peking before the imperial edict was
issued removing the restrictions upon
the transmission of cipher messages.
The date of the edict was August5.
Dispatch from Remey.
A dispatch from Admiral Remey
gave few military details. but moth
ing which shed light on the future mil
itary operations. Acting Secretary
Adee had a long conference with Secre-
tary Root in reference to the latest de-
velopments, but the officials main
tanned much reserve as to the govern
ment's procedure. The Remey dispatch
follows:
"Chefoo, Aug. 10.-Bureau Of Navigation,

graphs from front: Sixth Yang-Tsun occu-

Attention Drawn Towards Shanghai.
For the moment atten tion is strong
ly directed toward the situation at
Shanghai, where Vice Admiral Sey-
mour has determined to land British
troops. The influential southern vice
roys of China, including Ii Hung
Chang. have united in commun ication
to Washington, asking that the United
States use its good Offices with the pow
ers towards seeing that foreign forces
are not landed at Shanghai. The mes
sage was presented to the state depart
ment Saturday by Minister WI. who
received it from China Friday night 1t
develops the fact for the first time tina t
an agreement wasmade about month
ago, under which the protection of the
city Of Shanghai is placed in the care
of foreign authorities. It is pointed out
that his protection can be exercised
best by united action of all the govern
ments, without the landing of troops
by any one or more of them, and as an
evidence that this protection is ample
at present it is stated shat 20 foreign
warships are in the ofing. 1t is under
stood that the actual landing of troops
has not yet occurred, but a British
force for this purpose is now en- route
sfrom India. Ks.

Washington, Aug. 13.-Up to the
present time the Chinese legation has

FOR PHILIPPINE TROOPS.

Washington, June 22.-The only news
from China laid before the cabinet meet
ing today was telegram to the secre-
tary of the navy giving the movement of
vessels in Chinese waters. The text of
the message, however, was not made
public. That the president and the men,
bers of the cabinet regard the situations
in China as extremely critical is shown
by the fact that the preliminary prepara-
tions are being made to send forward adj
ditional troops in case of need. A tele-
gram will be sent to General Macarthur
at Manila this afternoon asking how
large a force he can spare, should 1t be-
come necessary to send them to China.
No answer to this inquiry Is expected be-
fore tomorrow when instructions may be
sent to have transports and troops in
readiness to sail. 1t is said that it is not
the purpose of the president to dispatch
these additional troops at once except in
the event that the situation becomes
even more grave than ait prasent. A
cablegram to Macarthur was a precau-
tionary measure taken with view to
being in readiness to met any emer-
gency.
The cabinet session was largely occu-
pied by the postmaster general, who had
returned from the Philadelphia conven-
ton in telling the STORY of the conven-
ton.

RELIEF OF INDIANS.
VIII. Be Given an Opportunity to
Work-Proposition Of Hughes.

Los Angeles, June 22.-Both the Santa
Fe and Southern Pacific officials are con-
ferring with Thos. Hughes, a large vine-
yartiist' of Fresno in regard to a plan to
relieve to the destitute and Pamia and
PapQgos Indians on the Gila reServa-
ton lin Arizona. Labor for the Vine
yards is difficult to obtain and Hughes
promises to transport the Indians from
Phoenix to Fresno at his own expense
provided the railroads will make a low
rate and pay them good wages for labor.
The superintendent of the reservation
has consented to the plan provided the
authorities at Washington agree they
have been appealed to.

Oh the business district of this city TINS
afternoon caused an estimated loss Of
several hundred thousand dollars and for
11ne threatened to wipe out the entire

by Fifth avenue, Diamond, Wood and

AT l O'Clock flames were discovered
issuing from the rear of the Eichbaum

fiames We're burning SO fiercely that lit
tie nope was entertained of saving any
OF them. Five minutes later the flames
leaped across Fifth avenue and the roof
OF the magnificent eight -story iron build
ing of the First National bank was seen
to be on fire. Fortuna tely, however, the
fire was discovered before much headway
had been made and it was extinguished
without much damage. Firemen were
then stationed on top of the building with

meantime the flames We're leaping so feet
in the air from the burning buildings and

their progress and it looked as if the

settling fire to roofs 200 feet away. Final
ly at 2:3O olock the flames We're con-
trolled without getting beyond the first
limits. The Elchbaum building was de-
stroyed and the other buildings were bad
" damaged. It is impossible to give any
thing like fair estimate of the loss at
this hour, but it will very likely exceed
$500, 900.

the Eichbaum building and the flames
spread SO rapidly that they barely es-
capped with their lives, losing their books
and some of their other effects. In the
panic many received bruises and con-

been accounted for.
