Our Part in the Row.

Washington, June 1S.-The navy de-
partment has acknowledged the recent
OF two cablegrams received from Admiral
Remey and Commander Taussig. The
first is as follows:
"Cavite, June 18.-Bureau of Naviga-
ton, Washington; Taussig cables that
Taku forts fired upon foreign gun yes
ssels and then surrendered to the allied
forces on the morning of June II.
kempff asks Instructions about Joining
other powers, who are taking united
action in demanding that the Taku forts
be turned over to them to secure favor
able termination of the trouble. Will
the department instruct Kempff through
Taku at Che Foo and give me the same
information?'
The telegram OF Commander Taussig
OF the Yorktown is as follows:
"Che Foo, June 17.-Taku forts fred
upon foreign vessels about 12:45 a. M.
Surrendered to allied forces at 8 q. m.
The British admiral is at Tientsin.''
The instructions sent to Admiral
kempff relative to his participation in
the seizure OF the Taku forts we're broad,
consisting OF directions to protect ali
American interests, and to that end to
act concurrently with the representatives
OF other powers. The sole condition was
that, in his judgment, his acts should
tend to the protection of American
interests

night, when the finest buildings in the
eastern part OF the city were burned and
hundreds OF native Christians and ser
wants employed by foreigners were mass
acred within two miles OF the imperial
palace. 1t was an anxious night for all
foreigners, who were collected under the
protection OF the foreign guards. The
Boxers burned the Roman Catholic
east cathedral, the large building of the
London mission, and the American
board OF missions, and also the build
ings in the eastern part of the city or-
cupied by foreign employees of the mari
time customs.

guards fail to arrive today further riots
are expected. 1t is believed that no

Chicago, June 16.-Twelve of the 20
men indicted some time ago on charge
OF forming a trust to control the busi-
ness OF photo engraving in Chicago have
been put on trial before Judge Hutchin-
son; They waived jury trial and the
evidence was heard by the court.
Further testimony will be heard next
Monday. Conspiracy to form an un-
lawful combination in restraint of trade
is the allegation. The organization was
to be known as the Photo Engraving
Association OF Chicago. The combina,
tion was in direct violation, it is alleged,
of the spirit of the antitrust law.
Assistant States Attorney Barnes
sprang a surprise on the defense when he
produced copy of the agreement, the
original OF which, the defense declared,
had been lost.
