Two Legations Were Standing on
! July 8.
WASHINGTON, July s.--A cablegram
to the state department from the con-
sui general, dated Shanghai, July z,
says that two of the foreign legations
were standing on July 8. The recent
attack of the Boxers had been slight.
They seemed disposed to adopt the
starvation method.
LONDON, July S.-There is nothing
in the few dispatches received last
night to add to the ray of hope regard
ing the fate of the legations at Pekin
shed by yesterdays dispatches from
Washington, and messages from other
sources indicating that the legations
were still standing on July and that
recent attacks by Boxers had been
Slight. News from other points was
distinctly disquieting. A report from
Chez Foo dated July Z. says that a
Catholic bishop, two priests and two
nuns have been murdered. A report
from Moukden, dated July 5, says that
a Danish mission at Hin Yung has
been surrounded by Boxers. Accord
ing to the report, it would be possible
to hold out only two days. A party
of Cossacks, residents of Moukden,
and the British consul, had started
for the relief of those beseiged at the
Danish mission. The situation at
Tien Tsn on July is said to have
been most serious. Japanese and
Russian forces are said to have been
hurrying there from Taku, but accord
ing to some accounts, mutual distrust
exists between the allies.

Latest Reports Reveal Extent of the
HobOken Horror.

New YORK, July 3.-Sixty-seven
bodies of victims of the Hoboken fire
have been recovered. Each hour that
passes witnesses additional recoveries
of bodies, scared, MANNED and burned
beyond all semblance of humanity.
And the half has not yet been told. as
all the bodies brought to the surface
yesterday were caught on graphing
hooks. The list of missing is still
placed at but few below the 300 mark,
and when the bodies begin floating to
the surface the gruesomeness of the
situation will be realized. The bodies
recovered up to IL o'clock last night
include forty-one now in O'Donnell's
undertaking establishment and some
in Hoboken; ten in IIoffman's in the
same city; twelve in the morgue in New
York, and four deckhands of the Saale,
which We're recovered too late to be
brought to either city. OF these, thir-
ty-seven have been either positively
or partially identified, most of them,
so far as has been discovered, being
victims from the steamship Saale.

in respect to the sea without consult

Won Ketteler, German minister at Pc

June IS. Three legations-those of
Britain, France and Germany-were
still undestroyed June 3d.. The Ger
man minister was attacked while pro-
ceeding to the tsung-li-yamen, where
he died. The American consul here
states that Yung Lu telegraphed
June 26 that the other ministers were
safe that morning but the situation was
desperate and he doubted whether the
ministers could hold out twerty-four
hours longer, as he and the empress
could not longer give protection.

PARKERsBURG, w. Va, July 6.-The
most horrible calamity that this city
ever witnessed occurred at 7 a. m.
Five men were blown to atoms, and
one other so badly injured that he
soon died, and two more are expected
to die at any minute. The yards of
the Ohio river railroad are spotted
with pieces of torn flesh and sprayed
with blood that was wiped up by the
burning oil. The scene is veritable
charred spot, and descriptive powers
failed to give any adequate conception
and impression of its horrors. A car
tank containing 5000 gallons of oil
was on the yard track for shipments
Train No. % was pulling a train Of
fast freight south bound. The engin-
eer looked and saw that the main
track was open and came slowly to-:
ward the yards. The switch was open
and the train ran into the side track,
colliding with the tank car. The col
lsion caused hole to be bored in the
top part of the tank, and the oil ig-
nited, causing terrific explosion.

The dispatch does not state the
source from which the news was re-

but it is thought this is indicated by
another Shanghai dispatch which
states that the taoti, or officers in
charge of the several departments at
Shanghai and svicinity, now admits
that no legation exists at Pekin. They
are said to have been exterminated,
and admitted that no foreigners were
