legation was in receipt Of news which
It was not able to disclose. He added:
"You may take it that on July 10,
the date of the Conger message, all the
legations and foreigners in Picking.
were safe. I cannot say why the 9TH
er ministers could not communicate
with their governments, but there is
no reason. why they should not use the

ployed. Perhaps a supreme effort We
made for Mr.. Conger's dispatch, am.

Gems. Grant, Barry n Wilson Will
Go to China.
Washington, July 25.-Although or
ders have not been issued it is pretty
generally understood in military cir
cles that Brig. Gen. Frederick d.
Grant, u. S. w., and Brig. Gen. Thorn
as V. Barry have been selected for as
signment to duty with the military
division in China. Their assignment,
together with that of Brig. Gen. James
n. Wilson, u. s. ", already announced,
will give Maj. Gen. A. r. Chaffee, COM
mander-in-chief, three general officers
Of recognized ability to assist him In
the management of military operations
in China. Gen. Grant is now on duty
with the troops in the Philippines, be-
ing stationed near Manila. Gen. Barry
is a passenger on the transport Sum-
ner, which left San Francisco on the
18th inst for Nagasaki. The orders
under which he sailed required him to
report to Gen. Macarthur at Manila
for duty as chief Of staff. 1t is pro-
posed, however, to change his orders
so as to assign him temporarily at least
to duty with troops in China. He ur'
doubtedly will receive orders to that
effect upon his arrival at Nagasaki
and will continue with the troops on
the way to Taku, China. Gen. James
H. Wilson, the senior brigade COM
mander, now at Matanzas, Cuba, is
expected to start on his long journey
to the Orient Immediately.
