RusKIN.

Ruskin, the English art critic. lived
at Mornex, near Geneva, during the
summers of 1868 and 1864. He inhabited
a small one-story house with but one
front ROOM the little window of which
looks out on the majesty OF Mont Blanc.
Close to the house is the road to Gem
eva, whence a bypath shaded with fir
trees leads TO the summit of Mount
Mornex, where the old walls of Mornex
castle still remain. On the other side OF
Mornex is charming walk-Le Sentier
dc Chataignieres-bord with Chest
nut trees. Here Ruskin delighted to
wander, and was photographed under
his favorite trees many times. Some OF
Ruskin's friends, desiring to commem-
crate the authors stay in Mornex, ask
ed the permission of the local authorf-
ties to place black marble slab, suita-
bly, inscribed, on the house where he
once lived. 1t is expected that the little
Mornex cottage win attract many Rus
kin admirers, who win be willing to
undertake the pilgrimage for the sake
of the master.-Chicago Record.

jority of nine, the final vote being 40
to 81. Only committee amendments
were adopted.

attentively to his vigorous presentation

Mondell of Wyoming praised the form
of government proposed by the bill,

The Australia did not get in at her
usual time, being late on account of
some rather rough weather encounter
ed and saving of coal. Coal is expen-
sive now. For the first time since last
December she was locked at a wharf
not in quarantine. She made fast six
feet from the Oceanic wharf and there
was no quarantine on the wharf. AS q
result the old-time crowds were on
hand to welcome the arrivals The
steamer has not yet been released from
all quarantine. None of the officers or
men are allowed on shore and there is
to be no communication that will mean
risk of infection.
The transport Grant left just as the
Australia arrived. The big white
steamer pointed her nose down the
channel as pilot Lorenzen was just
heading the Australia for the harbor
and the two steamers passed one an
other outside, the Grant heading south
west. 1t was hard luck for the people
on the Grant, who were hoping for the
news brought by the Australia. before

Robbed of $3.50.

There was another burglary last
night.
The Fort street business house of the
Pacific Cyclery was broken into and a
till robbed of 81 so. Nothing else of
value was distracted. The methods
adopted by the thief strongly suggest
the tactis of "Barefooted Bill" and Ka-

his first out since the recent epidemic of
burglaries.
The police feel fairly certain that
Kaluna knows something of the rob-
berry, and are working on that line.

Anarchists Detained In New York Charged

Anarchists Detained In New York Charged
with Conspiring to XIII the President.
Notable Maresca and Michil Weida,
supposed anarchists, arrived in New
York Saturday from Italy and were
detained at the immigration office. 1t
is charged that they, with twelve 9TH
ers, conspired to kill President Me-
Kinley. The other conspirators, all
of whom it is believed have been APP
pretended, have been taken singly
and IN pairs from incoming ocean lin
ers within the past ten days.
United States secret service agents
learned through a letter which came
to the lodgings of Bresci after he had
slain King Humbert, which was given
into the hands of the police, that an
anarchist circle in Naples had cast lots
to determine who should be the assas-
sin. Eleven Italians and three Aus
trians were selected. Closely followed,
they sailed from different ports. Their
object was to strike individual blows
at the same time. That would make
success sure. AS fast as the men ar
rived secret service agents went among
them and they were arrested. Maresca
and Weida were the last of the four
teen. Extraordinary precautions have
been taken to guard the president.

TO TREAT WITH CHINA.
President May Propose an Information
Com ission to Conduct NegotIations

President May Propose an International
Commission to Conduct Negotiations.
President Mckinley is considering
the advisability of proposing to the
powers the organization of an interna-
tional congress, which shall sit in
China and recommend to the several
governments represented permanent
solution of pending questions.
The president recognizes the fact
that the duties United States Minister
Conger would be called upon to perform
would be SO exacting and arduous that
1t would be unfair to ask him to take
the additional burden of discussing a
method of settlement of the matters in
controversy; that Special Commissioner
Rockhill will be too busily employed in
obtaining information and in communi-
cation with high Chinese officials to
give time to them, and that direct
negotiation between the powers is
likely to prove unsatisfactory and give
rise to complications which might
otherwise be avoided.

Apparently well on retiring at II

on hand in half an hour.
Mr.. Huntington died without gain

PEKIN CAPTURED.
ALLIES ENTER THE CITY AFTER
HARD FIGHTlNG, AUGUST T15.
City Entered by One OF the Four Eastern
Gates--Japanese Lead Attack-Lega-
tions and Foreigners Now Safe.

The allied forces captured and en-
resistance August Is, and the members
Of the foreign legations are safe. OFF,
ciai confirmation of the fall of the
Chinese capital came to the United
States state department Saturday
morning in the shape of two cable
grams, one from Admiral Remey and
the other from Consul Fowler at Che
Foo. The cablegram from Admiral
Remey came to hand first, early in the
evening, followed very soon by that of
Consul Fowler. The Japanese loss Is
reported as over 100. Loss of the other
commands is not yet known.
Contrary to the press reports, Consul
Fowler's dispatch shows that the at
tack on the city met with strong re.
sistance. The japanese force engaged
with the advance, numbered 10000
men, so the loss suffered by them was
over per cent. Allowance is made
for losses in the forces of the other
armies, but it is presumed that it was
in proportion to that of the Japa-
nese.
Previous information which has been
received showed that the allies took
possession of Tung Chow on the 12th
instant. From that city to Pekin the
distance is not very great, not more
than 6nzan f,nfloc autlant
therefore, that the armies halted for a
time at Tung Chow, probably for the
purpose of giving the men a rest and
preparing for the attack upon the cap
ital city in force, after waiting until
the rear OF the advancing hosts should
arrive at the front
The officials here were aware of the
fact that the stronghold of the Boxers
was in the Chinese city, and for the
allies to attempt to force their way
through into the Tartar city, in which
The legation compound are located,
night mean great loss of life and
possibly defeat. 1t was also known
that the imperial troops who have
nded with the Boxers were, many of
them, in or near the Chinese city, and
ihat much of the artillery and rifle
ire which has been poured into the le-
cations had been from the walls sepa-
'ating the two cities.
These facts evidently were commu-
nicated to General Chaffee and the
other commanding officers of the allies.
Realizing these obstacles, it appears
that the allies decided to attack the
city by the east gate. There are four
gates to the city on the east, two lead
ing to the Chinese city and two to the
Tartar city. just which one of these
was selected as the attacking point,
Consul Fowler's dispatch does not
disclose.
