BRITISH ADMIRAL CAPTURED.
Forces Sent to Guard Pekin Legations
Have Been Overpow cred.

According to reports, Admiral Sey-
mour has been captured and the MIN
listers have left Pekin, guarded BY
Chinese soldiers Their whereabouts
is unknown. Before the dispatch was
received, United States Consul John
Fowler received from Admiral Kemnff
the following: only one communica-
tion from Pekin has reached me since
June IL. No direct or indirect news
from the ministers since. About $50
foreign troops. including fifty-six
American marines, went to Pekin to
guard the legations, force of 100
Americans, uniting with total force
OF $500 men OF all nationalities repre-
sented here, went on June 10 to open
the road and relieve Pekin. This
movement was by permission of the
Chinese government.
The total force which left TEN Tsin
with Admiral Seymour for Pekin was
about 1000, composed of detachments
from the allied ships No action could
possibly be taken to relieve the COM
mander-in-chief because IL was only
known that he was cut off by Tien
Tsin being invested.
1t is impossible to learn whether the
capture was effected by Boxers, or
whether the Chinese army ordered
them. The guarded secrecy of the
Chinese government seems to support
the latter view,
careful estimate Of the number
and armament of the Chinese troops
around Pekin puts the total at 900, 900.
and 1t is calculated that these troops
possess 227 centimetres Creusot guns,

day, June 2i, and an hour and ten min

The air was surcharged with elee-

when he turned about, standing there
with gray eyes calmly sweeping the
cheering thousands, the magnetic ora

power to call up a storm that would
sweep through the amphitheater. Be-

men and women, almost frantically
waving hats, handkerchiefs. pamphlets

In full view of the convention he
stood erect, his face as infexible as
though chiseled in marble, waiting for
the applause to cease. When quiet was
restored he began to speak. With
resonant, ringing voice and graceful
gesture, Foraker stilled the noise.
Even the pages and the attendants
crouched down as they gazed at the
