London, July A dispatch from Taku,
dated Saturday. June 30. and Che Foo,
Tuesday, July 3. says that the British and
Russian admirals, at a council Of war,
held on June 30 decided that it was i'm

this not proving feasible, they will en-
deavor to retain possession of Taku.
One hundred and forty thousand inn

REPORT FROM SEYMOUR.
His story Is of the Defense the For

London, July 4.-The admiralty has re-
ceived telegram from Vice Admiral Sey-
mour, dated Tien Tsin, Saturday, June 30.
After repeating the news from Pekin of
June "a Of the destruction of all the lega-
tions except the British, French, German
and part of the Russian, he adds;
1.-THE Europeans have gathered In the
British legation. They have provisions,
but ammunition is scarce. One gate of the
city, near the legation. is held by the Eu-
ropeans with guns captured from the Chi
nese. Five of the marine guard have been
killed and one officer is wounded.
There is not much sickness at present.
The Chinese inundated the country near
here yesterday from the grand canal, the
object probably being for the defense of
the city from the south. 1t does no in

Kansas City, July 4.-The National Con-

delegates were slow in arriving, and It
was some time after u o'clock, the hour
fixed for the convention, when Chairman
Charles A. Towne's gavel fell, and the
party formed in St. Louis four years ago,
after the bolt Of the advocates of free
silver from the Republican National Con-

Other Shanghai reports describe the
condition of the British legation as aw-

cation were filled with sick and wounded,
the killed lying unburied in heaps.
1t is believed that many members and
officials of the Tsung-li- Yamen perished
when the German guard, maddened by the
murder of Baron Won Ketteler the Ger
man minister, set fire to the building.
That the foreigners at the Chinese cap
ital have been abandoned to their horrible
fate no longer seems open to doubt
The Associated Press cablegram from
Takio seems to foreshadow the evacuation
of Tien Tsin by the international forces,
pending the arrival of a fully equipped
army. 1t is felt here that a retreat of the
troops is likely to set aflame the pro-
vinces now quiescent.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.
Good Words for Vinita Spoken by
Visiting Editors.

II was regretted that the weather
would not permit much outdoor
observation of Vinila, for the in
door view was quite charming and
better conditions Of weather would
have given the people opportunity
for showing something of the thrift
andprogress OF the principal town
of the Cherokees. Muskogee has
been wrestling with the PROPOSE
tion OF a queen for the Fort Smith
fair; Vinita could select quite lot
Of them any day II the people Of
the banquet were all home people.
1t is a pleasure to record the OBJ
legation Of The Phoenix represent
ative to the brethren Of the Vinita
press for courtesies, and to James
Barker, general passenger and
ticket agent Of the Katy, Such
combination of courtesiss tempt
one to arrange at another time for
a more extended view OF Vinita.
Finally, it may be said, Vinita
was that day about the wettest
"dry" town in the Louisiana pur-
chase. One prominent Cherokee
citizen undertook 10 explain the
fog and rain BY saying that he just
believed it was one Of those tricks
of the imperialists OF this country
to force him to turn up his trous-
ers, get a monocle and a stick Of
cordwood. He can't vote a bit in
the coming presidential election,
but one can guess fairly well how
he would if he could. d.--Phoenix.
