CHINESE DOWNCAST
BY FALL OF TIEN TSIN
Now Said to be Seeking Terms of
Peace.

London, July 23.-Sir Chih
Chih Chen Lob Feng, the Chinese
minister In London, took the un
usual step yesterday of paying u
Sunday call at the foreign office.
AS Lord Salisbury was absent,
the visit was without special re-
suit, but its Importance may be
gathered from an interview with
the secretary OF the Chinese lega
ton, Sir Halliday Msccsrtney in
which the legation officials see M
to have assn med at last something
like personai responsi biiity.
Sir Halliday admitted that
communication had been practi
cally rsopened with Pekin and
that messages from Sir Claude
Macdonald, the British minister,
and the other fareign snvoys
might be expected almost imme
diatsly. He said he hoped the
trouble would soon be over, since
the Chinese government was do
ing its utmost to overcome the
difficulties and to control the
lawless element. In bis opinion
the Americans had taken the
most common sense view of the
situation, aud he insisted that
China ought not be misjudged.
Against the suspicion that Ii
Hung Chang hap any but a siu-
cerely pacific object in view he
protested warmly, declaring that
all stories about the perfidy and
trsachery of Earl Ii were "abso.
lutely baseless."
With regard to the prospects
In the southern provinces, the
secretary admitted that there
might be small outbreaks but he
said there would be nothing seri-
Gus and that Europeans would be
quite safe in treaty ports. The
long silence he explained as "due
probably to the rebels, who have
cut the Iwires and blocked the
roads"
Thus according to the secretary
of the Chinese legation, a few
days more should bring a Solu-
tion of the great mystery. Never
theless no one in England
believes that the alleged dis
patches and edicts are anything
but gu bterfuges to hide the real
situation as long as possible and
to avert retributIon by sowing
discerd among the powers. q
EMPRESS DOwAGER MOVING.
From Shanghai comes a report
that the empress dowager and
the court are moving to Hsian
Flu (O, in the province of Shan
81, to which large stores of rice
are being sent, and that, when
these arrangements ara complet.
ed, the remaining viceroys will
declare against foreigners.
CHINESE DIsHEARTENED.
According to the Che Foo cor.
respondent of tho Daily Mail the
the fall of Tien TsIn has so dis.
heartened the Chinese that they
are seeking terms Of peace. He
says that several attempts have
been made to send messages to
Pekin but go far without any
known results adds that rumors
are agaiu current that the Rus.
slams are reaching Pekin from
the north. 1t is impossible to con
firm or deny these statements !;
but either one might explain
China's effort to gain time.

sTockr1EN AT KANSAS CITY.
Two Days in Which cattiemen VIII
Get Very Little Sleep.

Get Very Little sleep.
Special Correspondence.
Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 13.-On Oc-
tober % and "a many hundreds OF
members of the three big stockmen's
associations of Texas and the Indian
Territory will be in full possession OF
Kansas City. Hundreds of responses
have been received from the mem
bers accepting the invitation sent
out by Kansas City's live stock IN
terests and Commercial club re-
questing their presence at that time.
So that those who have the enter
tainment of the stockmen in charge
are expecting largo number OF en-
thusiastic and warm hearted cattle
men from the Sunny South.
Last spring the cattlemen OF Texas
and the Indian Territory at meet
ing at Fort Worth stood by Kansas
City in her endeavor to capture the
meeting of the National Live Stock
Association in January, 1901. The
three Texas associations fought for
Kansas City, but by combination
of Chicago and other points that
meeting was carried to Salt Lake
City. Really, it was battle between
the sheepmen and the cattlemen and
was merely a continuation of the
struggle of the business part of the
convention. The courtesy of the
Texas and Territory people in stand
ing by Kansas City has made the
stock interests, and, in fact, the
whole commercial body of Kansas
CITY, feel indebted to these stockmen
and the invitation extended by this
CITY to each member of the assocla-
tions was but a recognition of the
good will of the Southerners and an
attempt tc express appreciation
therefor.
The reason for choosing October
% and "a for the entertainment OF
the Texas and Territory stockmen
was the multiplicity of attractions
which will be ION" in Kansas City
at that time. There isn't any doubt
at all that the Hereford-Shorthorr
exhibition which will be held from
October is to 26 will be the greatest
that has ever been known in any
country. Then, too, the sale OF some
of the worlds finest Herefords and
Shorthorns will be in progress. Al
the same time the stockmen will be
enabled to spend an evening at Kan
sas City's horse show, which is just
as fine as that given in Madison
Square Garden, New York. The en-
tertainment committee has provided
many attractions to supplement- the
above mentioned. Considering these
facts, it would seem to be the par
of the cattlemen to 60 to sleep al
7 O'Clock every night until they
leave home, for if they get any sleer
In Kansas City it will be in the form
of cat maps between times.

scarcity Of Fire Wood.
from Muskogee says:

A special from MusKogee SAYS
There has been considerable COM
plant of late regarding the scarcity.
Of ere wood in the towns of the In
dian Territory, there being q COM
pIete wood famine in many OF the
towns. The failure of the farmers
to bring wood to town as usual is
attributed to the recent order of the
interior department regarding the
cutting of timber in the Territory,
many of them believing that they
had no right to sell timber for any
purposes whatever. When seen re-
garding the matter Indian Agent
shoenfelt of this place made the
following statement:
"The people are altogether mis-
taken in the assumption that the in-
terror department prohibits the use
of wood for domestic purposes. In
dian Inspector Wright and myself
have encouraged the sale of wood in
the towns of the Territory where 1t
would be used for domestic pur-
poses and not shipped out of the
Territory. There is certain rev.
enue which quite number of fcitizens
secure through the clearing up OF
farms and sale OF wood that helps
them out in the course of year,
and the secretary of the interor
never contemplated taking away
from these men their income from
this source. The regulations do con-
template, however, the driving out
of the Arkansas, Texas and Okiaho-
ma saw mill men, who were in a
fair way of denuding the Territory
of its forests and taking therefrom
the best timber. There has not
been a prosecution, nor has there
been a warning sent out TO the wood
haulers in any part of the Indian
Territory demanding that they
should quit the business, and their
efforts to make livelihood by sup
plying the citizens of the town with
stove wood or wood for heating pur-
poses have rather been encouraged" J."
