OF these Colonel Liscum alone has attained
particular prominence. He has recently been
commanding the Tarlac brigade and only three
days ago the following cable dispatch from
Manila was attached to his creditable record:
Manila, June 15 1900.
Acknowledgement, Washington
General Macabulos with eight officers, 12+ men
and 124 rifles, surrendered to Colonel Emerson H
Liscum at Tarlac this morning. Macabulos is the
most important and last insurgent leader in Tarlac
and Pangasnan. MACARTHUR.
This dispatch also indicates that the complete
paciication of the district garrisoned by the
9th led General Macarthur to choose that regt-
ment for service in China.
Colonel Lscum's military record, from the
files Of the War Department, is follows:

WHAT MAY HAVE STARTED IT.

Washington. June IS (SpeciaD.-The an
nouncement Of the return to T1en- Tsin of
the combined brigade after a weeks fruitless
efforts to reach Picking is regarded as of the
highest Importance. 1t not only confirms the be-
lief Of the desperate condition Of affairs at the
Chinese capital, but is thought to explain why
it necessary to seize the Taku forts. If
the commanders of the combined feet below the
forts learned of the expeditions return to ITEM
Tsin, that city being in the possession Of mobs
1t must have been necessary to send reinforce
ments and provisions up the river promptly, no
matter If the had set. The Chinese regu-
lations permit nothing to pass the forts at night
under any circumstances. For the same rea-
at sunset, and not reopened until sunrise.
Commander Taussig says the forts fired three
quarters of hour after midnight which bears
out the suggestion that the gunboats were sent
up the river with food supplies from the fleet
outside, and fired upon for violating the
regulations. With the forts bases the Powers
expected to form large force as speedily
possible to begin determined relief expedi-
ton of sufficient force to open the railway. No
further restrictions will operate TO impede the
landing OF forces, particularly those of Japan.
and it is feared that the worst reports may be
verified, but firm hopes are expressed that the
sanctity of the legations may have been OBJ
served by the mobs. who have never failed to
respect the Ministers heretofore. even when
other foreigners were being murdered in all
directions.

ing steady going regiments of the Army, but
until the present time it has been peculiarly
unfortunate in getting opportunities to distin-

same category in the War Department. The
regiment was FIRST organized in January. 1899

great fights, notably in the storming Of Chapul-

LORD SALISBURY IGNORANT AS TO THE
REASONS FOR ADMIRAL sEY-
MOUR'S RETURN.

London, June 1S.-In the House of Commons

Japanese warships reported that the Chinese
forts opened fire or the gunboats at the mouth
OF the river yesterday at 1880 a. m; that the
ships then engaged the forts, and that the en-
gagement was proceeding when the japanese
ships left at $50 a. m. yesterday Detachments
from all the foreign warships were landed on
Saturday to protect Taku. There was one Chi
nese warship at Taku, which remained passive
Mr. Brodrick added that British, Russian
Japanese and French reinforcements were due
to arrive about Thursday.

conclusion he had heard that the telegraph line
from Taku to Tien-Tsin had been restored
Lord Salisbury was questioned in the House
of Lords to-day on the Chinese situation, and
said he regretted he was unable to enlighten the
House on the state of affairs in China: Admiral
SEYMOUR he continued, had returned to T1en-

actly why nor what Admiral Seymours 1nten-

THE WORST NOT YET TOLD.
Lord salisburys and Mr.. Brodrick's state
ments in Parliament left a painful impression
that the worst has not been told, and that there
had been a massacre of foreigners in Picking
The only source of consolation for members of
Parliament was the information that Indian
troops had been ordered to Hong Kong, and that
the British, French end Japanese troops would
land at Taku Thursday. With additional re-
serves on the way from Manila and British
ports, these belated reinforcements implied. &C

already occurred, and that the relief force had
retired because the legations had been mas

late to do anything to the legations

between the Powers interested in China regard
ing their joint action there, its scope, the pro-
portional strength of the forces or the part TO
