CHEERFUL TALK OF LONDON.
optimists Do Not Believe Situation Is
as Black as Painted.

New York, June pa dispatch to the
Tribune from London dated June II.
says:
The optimists who have been in the
background for a week have turned out
in force at the house of commons, and
the political clubs. and are talking
cheerfully about China.
SO marked was the reaction from
depression last night that men Of infiu-
ence did not hesitate to say that they
believed hat the public had been de-
ceived by sensational news mongers
and Chinese liars and that as soon as
communications were re-opened it would
be known that the foreigners had not
been murdered at Tien Tsin: that Ad-
but not cut to pieces and that the le-
view which found considerable support
was that the empress by avoiding an
open conflict with the Boxers and in
structing the generals to make COM
mon cause with them had regained con-
troll of the situation and that the lega-
tions had escaped attack in this way
and that the ministers had been es-
corted out of Pekin and that Seymour's s
force had been shut out of the capi-
toll but not been in serious danger.
There was little evidence in support of
this theory, yet many men of good judg-
ment were disposed to credit 1t, and
to assume that the empress after making
use of the regular army in dispensing the
Boxers after sympathizing with them
would not oppose the entry of the for
eign forces, but would appeal for Rus

DANIEL p. MARKEY'S ADDRESS
AT MICHIGAN STATE
CONVENTION.
DECLARES PARTY NOT IN
SYMPATHY WITH COMBINES.
Says a Democratic-Populist Victory
This Coming Fall Would Be
Calamity.

Grand Rapids, Mich, June 27.-Bliss
workers were undeniably the most conii-
dent people among the delegates, politi-
clans and spectators when the republi-
can state convention assembled at IL
o'clock.
bernator.ial candidacy of the Saginaw
colonel seemed not only to have held
their delegates together but 1t was con-
ceded that their strategy in making
combinations had proved more clever
than the large and influential following
of D. NJ. Ferry of Detroit, or the crowd
which had come in from Lansing and
many western Michigan towns to boom
the candidacy of Secretary of State
Stearns. 1t seems improbable that nom
nations will be reached today. The con-
vention will continue two days and per-
haps longer. The convention was called
to order by Gerrit J. Diekema of Holland,
chairman of the state central committee.
Hon. Daniel p. Markey of Port Huron,
was introduced as the temporary chair
man.
lit viii be found that the financial leg
islation embraced in the act of March IA,
1900, is the crowning glory of Mckinley s
administration he said. "The world
now knows that every dollar issued by
our government is just as good as a
gold dollar.
"A democratic populist victory this fall
would be a calamity because it would be
a threat against our currency, to be car
rled into effect at the first opportunity
The attack on this line will be largely un-
der cover of other issues and therefore
more dangerous.
There is no problem now before the
people for solution that needs the at
tention of the republican party more
tnan trusts. 1t is a question upon which
all people are agreed and all political
parties should be agreed. Only the dem
agogue will attempt to say that it is a
party question. We must meet the dema
gogue and demonstrate even to him thai
as a party we have no sympathy with
any institution that would either enslaye
or rob the people, hut that on the othe,
hand, so far as in our power lies we will
by statute and constitutional amend
ment, lef the power is given, regulate and
control these combinations in the intarast
of all the people,"

Washington, June 27.-The Chinese
minister this morning called on the Sec
retary of state and communicated to
MN the conetnts of a dispatch which he

Washington, June 27.-The following
cablegram was received at the navy de-
partment late this afternoon.
'Che Foo, June ~, Secretary Of the
Navy, Washington Pekin force and
ministers reported with Pekin relief ex-
pedition entrenched eight miles from
Tien Tsin. 'KEMPFF."
London, June 27.-2:O5 p. m.-The cable
messages from the far east today are so
far conflicting in their tenor that almost
any view Of the situation is deducible
therefrom. On the whole, however, the
news is encouraging, and it Is safe to as
sumo that Vice Admiral Seymour and the
legations, whether together or separately,
will ultimately reach place Of safety.
Various reports locate the legatoners at
divers places, but it seems agreed that they
are safely away from Pekin. The latest
Shanghai reports say Prince Tuan, the
head of the Chinese foreign office and
father of the heir apparent, has sent the
legationers to Slang Flu under escort and
adds that Slang Flu will be the new capital
in the event of Pekin being occupied by the
international forces.
Admiral Seymour, it is asserted, succeed
ed in getting a message into Tien Tsin on
Monday, according to which he was then
eight miles west Of there, terribly harassed.
could hold out only another two days and
had killed and over 200 wounded. He did
not mention the ministers or others from
Pekin.
1t is thought at Shanghai that now that
Tien Tsin is relieved the combined inter-
national forces will have no difficulty in

already left. 1t is claimed that the reports
as to the damage done at Tien Tsin and
the casualties among the foreign forces
have been highly colored.

And it's going to keep on whooping,
Till he gets the right of way,
Then go to voting and never stop,
Until night of election day.

And Webbtown's always right,
It can always be depended on,
In a hard political fight,
For clear cut straight, majorities,
Old Webbtown beats the best,
Let the Chairman press the button,
And Bill Suggs will do the rest.
They will elect Aycock in August,
and carry the amendments toe,
And be ready in November
To help put Bryan through,
Then with Bryan in at Washing

And Aycock in at Raleigh,
The Country will be safe again,

The GAINESVILLE co. Daily Cour~
er has the following to say of the
Rcgers-G rilley Recital, which
will be given in the Messenger
Opera House on Tuesday night,
April 3rd:
"The recital of Messrs. Rogers
and Grilley at Memorial Hall last
evening, in the Mirth and Music
Course, was attended, as every
ether number of the course has
been, by a great audience repre-
sentiug our most cultured people
of every walk of life.
The combination of harpist and
impersonator for an evening en-
tertainment seemed a unique one,
but everybody who heard last
nights programme readily con-
sents to the statement that 1T
makes an entirely agreeable COM
mipgling of pleasure for ear and
eye.
Mr.. Van Veachton Rogers, the
harpist, rendered a difficult class
Of music on the harp with OK
quisite touch. His selections were
played with spirit and precision,
and his lingering was marvellous.
The artist power in the man was
evident in every note.
MI. Charles Grilley, the im~
personator, is a king in his own
field. Some impersonators be-
long to the class of small come
dians, but not so Mr.. Grilley. AS
a fun-maker, indeed, he Us a sue
cess, but he has even greater
strength as a delineator of tragic
sentiment and dramatic situa-
tons. He has a love for the
standard in literature, and his
interpretations OF Shakespeare
and Irving we're CHARACTERIZED by
the insight of an intelligent stu
dent Of the great masters inf
nitely above the parrot imltators
that too largely make up the
guild of professional elocution>
ists."
