FLKR1HcsFRoM GALVESTON.
Thousands OF People Quit the stricken
City-BodIes Of che Desd Are Rot
ting ON tho Gro1pd.

Galveston, Tex, Sept. 1s.-The
steady stream of refugees from Gal
weston is kept up. There is not a de-
parting train from across the bay
that is not packed to it's platforms.
There will be refugees leaving for
week to come. No sadder sight could
be imagined than the picture pre-
sented by a boatload of refugees,
when the ropes were cast off and
the craft swung out into the bay and
away from the storm-swept city.
There was not a face that was not
turned toward the ruin. There was
not an eye that wasn't moistened by
tears. So great has been the rush
to leave behind the scene of the storm
that the Lawrence, the boat which
connects with trains at Texas City,
has not failed to leave her wharf a
single day without denying passage
to a portion of those who wanted TO
get away.
There is plenty of work on hand
for ten times the force of laborers
has as yet been untouched embraces
AZ miles of frontage on the, beach
bay and before it is cleared the bodies
which lie rotting beneath the tangled
timbers will fall to pieces. Even now
there is no semblance of humanity
in the grewsome things which are
uncovered by the wostsers. 6
There are numerous cases of in
sanity in Galveston as result of the
terrible bereavements sustained by
the survivors. Not Is people got into
Galveston Sunday from the, outside
world. The lines are being drawn
tight and pressing, indeed, must be
the business which gives one safe
passage. 1t is estimated that about
5000 have departed from the city
since the storm, including women and
children

THAT DEWEY HOME.
Gift Os the Amer can People To tho Adj

tciain In Washington.

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE home
which the American people presented
to Admiral Dewey is again causing
adverse criticism of the hero of Mani
la bay. Il is said the. home of the adj
miral of the American navy is not kept
in ship shape. Neighbors of the adj
miral call attention to the untidy
lawn. Real estate agents claim that
the general neglect of the property
hurts values in the vicinity. This
home has not been occupied since the
admiral and Mrs. Dewey moved out
to Beauvoir last April, and the air OF
abandonment is noticeable. Mrs
Dewey has said she will never live in
the house again, and the neighbors
are worried about the fact that this
wasted relic of once beautiful home
will continue indefinitely as a menace
to their prosperity and future com

swamped frame dwellings, of the
beach district that were ground to-

beach into huge breakwater and

ness have resumed. Others are active

for rebuilding have been going on in

overshadowing topic at the annual conven-

of the United States to-day. A tone of ex-
IRENE bitterness toward the railroads
cropped out during the sessions, and the

was being wiped out as a result of the
discriminating differentials now in effect
and which permit the shipment of grain to
foreign points for milling cheaper than
American -four.

political parties to insert in their plat
forms a clause favoring such legislation
as will confer upon the Interstate Com

provide summary relief, when il is found
that excessive or inequitab BILE charges are

NEED OF ADDITIONAL TROOPS.
Admiral seymour's Advance Making
Slow Progress

Washington. June IA dispatch has
been received at the British embassy here
from Adm raj Seymour. in command OF
the international tgo ps now forcing their
way from Tisn Tsin 10 Pekn The dis
patch disclosed the extreme difficulties
encountered, mainly in the form Of tracks
destroyed and stat2d that the progress
was only three miles for the preceding
twenty-fcur hours
The commanding Admiral felt that it
would be desirable TO have additional
forces in ord to meet every contingency,
although the general feeling was express
ed that the trol~ple would be less difficult
to deal with than has been expected
1t is calculated that with the three miles
covered in the twenty-four hours preced-
ing the Admirals dispatch which is dat
ed yesterday, the international force was
now twenty-five miles from P6kin. Thera
is every indication. however, that the
twenty-five mile stretch will be about the
most difficult of the entire route The dis
patch of the Admiral makes no mention
of further engagements with the boxers
