Two couriers arrived at Tien Tsin
on July ] from Pekin. One brought a
letter from Sir Claude Macdonald. the
British minister, to the same effect as
that previously received from Sir Rob-
ert Hart. The couriers confirm the re-
ports Of the death of Baron Won Ket-
teller. They say that Prince Ching is
doing his utmost to protect the for

against the whites is strong. Two
high officials opposed to the Boxers
are reported by the couriers to have
been assassinated.

REINFOR CEMENTS MAY
GO FROM PHILIPPINES

Washington. July 1O.-Developments
in the Chinese situation were consid-
cred by members of the cabinet at a
consultation held yesterday. Admiral
kempifs cablegram, giving his esti-
mate of the amount Of force he regard
ed necessary to represent the United
States properly in the movement upon
Pekin, was carefully considered An
agreement was reached to say nothing
about the admirals figures, on the
ground that it would be impolitic to
make our needs known to the Chinese,
in the first instance, and also because
Of a desire on the part of this govern
ment to avoid being put in the po-
sition Of appearing to set up a
standard for the other powers in this
matter. 1t is understood, however, that
the pith of Admiral Kempff's commu-
nication is the necessity of speedy re-
Inducements. if quick action is desired,
and on the latter point there is not a
dissentient voice among the cabinet
officers.
If reinforcements are to be gotten to
China speedily they cannot come from

regiment, has started from San Fran
cisco, and the next steamer is not to
start before the 18th of the present
month At that rate many weeks, and
even months. must elapse before the
5000 additional troops ordered east
Saturday can be landed there This
state of affairs caused a revival yester-
day Of the report that Gen. Macarthur
is to be again called upon to relieve
the situation by dispatching from the
Philippines at least two regiments. in
addition to the Ninth infantry, already
sent to Talyu. II was said that the cab
met officers decided to give the nee
essary orders looking to "a replacement

MacArthur's command from the force

less Japan is to be left to do all of the
fighting in the immediate future Gen
Macarthur must respond to this de-
mand BY drawing upon the Philip
pine force at least a month could be
saved in landing troops in China.
Secretary Long yesterday afternoon
showed how the navy was responding
to the call for reinforcements by or
dering 500 marines to be assembled
from the several navy yards and hur-
ried to China. II is significant that
these are the first military forces to
be sent directly from the United States
to China.

ST. Louis. July 10.-It was decided
yesterday afternoon by the Union em-
ployes OF the st. Louis Transit COM
pany to resume at once their strike
and boycott, which was settled re-
Gently after being on nearly two
months. In a letter to the members Of
the union President Whitaker declared
that a number of the men had already
been reinstated. and that others will
be as rapidly as possible. The letter
denies that the company has broken
its agreement with the men.
The whole trouble seems to hang
upon a question OF facts, the men in
sisting that the company had violated
its agreement, while the company em-
practically denies that such is the case.
The men claimed yesterday that a
verbal agreement was entered into con-
currently with the written agreement.
and under the verbal agreement the
company had agreed to re-employ all
the old men in 60 days, seniority in the
service determining the priority OF re-
employment. The officers of the COM
pany declare that there was no such
verbal understanding.
n H'hpeA vA Nht ntihtio executive
committee said today that this was the
second time this company had broken
faith with its employees and no agree
ment would be accepted in the future
that did not provide for the reinstate-
ment of all old employees within "A
hours after the execution Of the agree
ment.
There will be no lawlessness or
demonstrations Of violence this time"
he continued. by means of vigor-
Gus enforcement Of the boycott we
hope to absolutely destroy the earn
ing capacity Of the company"

County.

w. H. Hildreth, publisher and editor
Of the Tribune at Chama, Rio Arriba
| county, is in the capital on land office
business. Mr.. Hildreth is young man
of energy, who not only edits but also
does the mechanical work on the Trib-
une, which is neatly printed and we'll
edited weekly paper.
GENERAL PROSPERITY.
In speaking Of Chama and Rio Arriba
county in general. Mr.. Hldreth says
that prosperity Is evident all around.
Chama Is more prosperous than 1t was
before the great fire that about year
and half ago destroyed the business
portion of the place. The Denver & Rio
Grande railroad intends to erect large
storage house there this summer The
town is also gaining a reputation as a
summer and health resort. 1t is very
beautifully situated, between 5000 and
5000 feet above the level of the sea. The
sparkling Chama, a beautiful trout
stream, that furnishes a never failing
supply of water, flows by the town. The
majestic Cumbres and Toltec ranges are
within sight, and are a fine hunting
ground. The town is one of the most
important stations on the Denver & Rio
Grande southern railroad, and many
railroaders live there Were 1t not for
the difficulty to secure title to real es-
tate, the town would grow rapidly.
BOUNTIFUL CROPS.
Rio Arriba county will have a bounti-
full fruit crop this year. Other crops,
too, are standing well. The ranges are
in splendid condition, and both sheep
men and cattlemen are enjoying more
than the customary amount Of prosper
ity. The lumber mills are also running
full blast, and there Is no sign as yet of
the lumber giving out, although that is
bound to happen sooner or later The
coal mines at Monero have been rum
ming overtime, and the coal taken out
at present out of one or two of the
mines is of an especially good quality
A REPUBLICAN COUNTY.
Mr. Hildreth was non-committal on
political subjects except that the coun-
ty will be Republican this fall. A num-
Der of candidates are spoken of for the
county offices and for the legislature,
but none Of them have made any official
announcement as yet. The Democrats
will put up strong fight, and an inde-
pendent ticket may be nominated al
though this is not likely. Mr.. Hildreth
intends to leave for Chama tomorrow
forenoon.

SCHOOL FUNDS APPROPRIATED

ESIooL Il ONDO AT L NUT ThlAlED
1t was the pleasant duty of Hon. M
c. de Baca, superintendent of public in
struction, yesterday to make the first
apportionment of public school funds
derived from the sale and lease of public
lands Under the act of congress entitled
AN act to make certain grants of land
to the Territory of New Mexico and for
other purposes" approved June 21, 1898.
The law requires the territorial treas
urer to make quarterly reports of all
moneys applicable to the use and sup
port of the public schools and shall
certify same to the superintendent of
public instruction, which official, within
so days thereafter shall make the ap-
portionment thereof to the various coun-
ties according to the pro rata enumer-
alton OF school children in each county
last returned by the county superin-
tendent." Accordingly Mr.. de Baca
finds that the total number of children
of school age in New Mexico is $1,000
and the amount he is called upon to thus
distribute is IL cents and 61 mills for
each pupil. Following are the amounts
placed to the credit of the several
counties under this annnrtionmant.
