HAY FOR LONDON POST

New York, Nov. 12.-The Journal and
Advertiser says, in Washington dis
patch:
That Secretary Of State Hay shall re
turn to the court of St. James as the
ambassador from the United States IS
the determination of the president. His
plan is based on the desire of the pres
ent administration, the British foreign
office and Secretary Hay himself.
No ambassador nor minister from the
United States has ever been so welcome
as Colonel Hay will be at London.
Officials say there is time enough TO
consider what will be offered 10 Mr..
Choate, the present ambassador at
London. Mr.. ChOate may resume his
law practice in New York, or he may
consider that an exchange of places
with Colonel Hay would not be unde-
sirab le. But Secretary Roots name
has recently been mentioned for the
state portfolio.
Griggs May Go Out.
Says the Times, in special from
Washington:

ruptlan of the cabinet is without fOun-
dalton. The cabinet viii stand by the

Nevertheless. there viii be changes on
March +. though the president would
be satisfied if there were not Many of
the members of the present cabinet are
anxious to return to private life. The
most conspicuous example is Attorney
General GTiggS, who makes a consider
able sacrifice by remaining. POstmaS-
ter General Smith accepted his place
solely because the president wanted
him in the cabinet He has no great
liking for the office, though he has
studied its duties and discharged them
4 cOnSCientiOuSly. Mr.. Smith would like
to leave the postOffice department, but
it is probable that he viii be trans
ferred to some other Office, so that Mr..
Mckinley may still have him in the
cabinet.
Secretaries Gage and Long have of
ten been spoken of as anxious to re-
ments that they viii not be in the next
cabinet There is no certainty Of that
however. The president has already
induced Mr.. Long to remain in the cab
met against his wishes, and he may
do so again.
Mckinley Likes Root.
At one time it was reported that Sec
rotary Hay would not stay in the cabi-
net through another administration.
Lately, however ana especially since
the country learned to appreciate Mr..
Hays work in the department there
has been no indication that he would
retire.
Secretary Root viii almost certainly
be in the next cabinet. There is no man
upon whom the president more thor
Oughly relies. He will continue to be
secretary of war unless MI Hay re-
tires. in which case Mr.. Root probably
will take the state department.
Secretary Wilson will also remain IN
the abinet, unless all signs fail Moth
ing is known about the intention of

London, July 2l.--The Shanghai cor.
respondent OF the Daily Express says:
"Intense indignation is felt here at
the honors in Hong Kong that have
been accorded to Ii Hung Chang, who
Is looked upon in Shanghai as the orig
inator OF the whole fiendish anti foreign

"a Chinese merchant who has Just

European women hauled into the street
by shrieking Boxers, who stripped
them and hacked them to pieces.
Their discovered limbs were tossed to
the crowd and CARED off with howls of
triumph. Some were already dead,
HAVING been shot by foreign civilians.
He says he saw Chinese soldiers car.
rying the bodies of white children aloft
ON their spears while their companions
shot at the bodies. He gives other de.
tails too horrible to be particularized
here.
1T seems that the Boxer leaders had
organized plan, including the offer

annihilation of Europeans throughout
China, and that Prince Tuan's soldiers
have been emphasizing the opportunity
the soldiers have had Of seizing the
bodies of white women"

The Terrible Fate OF One Of the First

San Francisco. July 21.-A Chroni
Gle special from Victoria, b. c., says
Advices received from North China
contain particulars of the awful torture
inflicted on the Rev. III. V. Norman.
who, with Rev. G. Robinson, was
among the first of the American mis-
sionaries to become victims OF the Box.
ers. A correspondent writing from
Tien Tsin on July Z, says some refugees
who had arrived there gathered from
Chinese CHASTITY details OF the torture
inflicted on Norman.
1t seems that he fell into the hands
OF LII, the head man Of little town
hard by the little Anglican mission,
where he and Robinson had their head :
quarters. In quarrel between Boxers
and Christians, the converts had driven
of the Boxers from the mission and Lii
vowed vengeance. This he took in a
horrible manner when Norman was
thrown into his hands.
After his capture by the rioters,
from whom Lii took the captive, the
missionary was stripped by the retinue
OF Ii and collar of iron fastened to
his neck. A short chain was attached
and he was tethered to a stake. The
Chinese men, women and children then
poked sharp sticks into his flesh and
jabbed him with tridents. When he
sank down, weak with the loss of blood
and half crazed by the awful torture,
and was unable to get upon his knees
even, the chain being too short, he
strangled slowly. Molten lead was
then thrown on his nude body and as
he writhed in agony, he was stabbed
to death. His boly was cut to pieces.
Robinson, the other Missionary, was
slaughtered without being so long in
agony. He was cut down by mob
and hacked to peces almost instantly.
A number of the mission converts were
slaughtered. Some were asked to re
cant and those who did SO TO save their
lives were saddled and bridled and
forced to crawl to the temple idols.

support. Nothing could be further
from the truth. Every Chinese in the

Some OF us have even authorized the

that the foreigners, especially the
Americans, in China may be saved"

town four miles, as Captain Walker
would not take the liner near shore.
At Tuskar light, the fog was becoming
denser every moment. When the Cam
pania was about 80 miles northeast Of
the light phantom ship rose suddenly,
without warning, directly across her
bows. Thirty seconds later the phan
tom had become solid sailing vessel,
into which the liner crashed, her steel
torefoot going through the Embleton
like the clean cut OF a sword, and
dividing her just abaft the mainmast.
The forward half sank instantly. The
stern swung vicIously round, and the
mast and yards for moment tore at
the Campania. A lump of wreckage
came down on her decks. Then the
stern of the bark also disappeared, and
the face OF the sea was Uttered with
splintered timbers, boxes, barrels, the
upper works and lighter cargo, the deck
houses and such things. Then there
was nothing.
From the instant when the phantom
came into view from the bridge of the
Campania until the last vestige of the
vessel vanished some 90 or so seconds
had elapsed.
According to the Embleton's surviv-
ors, for nearly half an hour before the
collision, the captain and first officer
were below at breakfast. and, although
the fog whistle of large steamer could
be heard every minute, the bark never
shifted her course. the helmsman re.

phrase, heard the rush Of steamers

who rushed on deck, but he was too
late to give an order.
The Capmania was under one-third
steam. The captain, first officer and
pilot were on the bridge. The engine
were instantly reversed, and the helm
put hard down. No precaution was
omitted. Some of her passengers had
even grumbled ut what they called
superhuous caution. After the crash
and the sudden cries, the boats were
quickly gotten out. There were no
signs of panic; the crew was every
where at their stations; the bulkheads
were closed and everything possible
was done to save life.
Some OF the Campania's plates were
bent by the collision; her forepeak
illed with water; her foretopmast was
broken short off and her steel rigging

than half the fatalities were among

are now about 40 bodies OF the little
ones lying at the morgue at Bellevue.
This was the third day Of the spell
of intense heat. Late tonight the tenn
perature moderated. Early this morn

before the day was fairly we'll started
the hospitals were busy. On the
