CROKER'S COUNSEL.

the Campaign to Point Out the Lessen
ing Chances Of Young Men.

New York, July 1.-THE executive
committee of the Tammany hall met
in the Wigwam last night, Richard
Croker presiding, and took action rel
ative to indorsing the democratic
national ticket. The general commit
tee of 5000 members will meet July
%, when resolutions will be adopted
and the ticket ratified. Mr.. Croker,
speaking at the meeting last night,
advised all speakers in this campaign
to show the interests of the young
men as opposed to the administra-

of the people of the country, he said,
were governed by 20 per cent. He
pointed out that the chances of the
young man for advancement in life
were becoming less and less.

SERIOUS DROUGHT BROKEN.
Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri Visited by
CopiOus Showers, Which Brought Relief
to Farmers Who Had Corn Crops.

Kansas City, Mo-, July 17.-Good
rains were reported Monday in nearly
all of the western corn belt, and the
weather forecaster said conditions
were favorable everywhere for more
showers. The biggest rainfall re-
ported was at Baker, in northeastern
Kansas, over two inches. Practically
all of Nebraska, so far as heard from,
received heavy rains-much heavier
than in Kansas-and Missouri is
thoroughly soaked. The rain has
come too late to make a bumper crop
of corn in Kansas. The crop in all
the country west of Emporia has
been damaged, and some conservative
observers think that from a third to
a half crop is all that may be looked
for in that part of the state. But in
the eastern third of the state, where
about half the corn area is situated,
the corn has not been damaged at all.

AS AN ACT OF MERCY.
Report from Tien Tsin Says Sey.
mour Killed His Wounded.
Being Hard Pressed BY the Chinese, He
Gould No Longer Garry the Disabled
and Would Not Let Them He
Tortured.

New York, July IA special to
the Journal from Tien Tsin, dated
July 8. via Shanghai, July Is, says:
We are fighting hordes of Chinese day
and night, but are unable to beat
them off. They are approaching closer
to the foreign settlement after each
battle. No quarter is given or asked
on either side.
Intellectual attempts have been
made to conceal the horrible fact that
Admiral Seymour was compelled to
shoot his own wounded during the
recent disastrous retreat of the Pekin
relief expedition. All the wounded
and prisoners who fell into the hands
of the Chinese were frightfully tor
tured. The bodies of two marines
who were captured BIZ the Chinese
were recovered. The bodies had been
cut to pieces. First the eyes had
been hacked out; then the cheeks,
arms and legs cut off, until death
ended the sufferings of the poor fell
lows
When Admiral Seymour in his re-
treat found himself so hard pressed
that he was unable longer to carry
his wounded with him, he asked
them: (Which do you prefer, to be
left to the mercies of the Chinese or
to be shot by your own commanders"
AS Admiral Seymour put the question
the tears were streaming down his
cheeks. 1--WE prefer death to tor
ture! Shoot us now. that we may
die like men," was the piteous re-
Spouse of the helpless men.
A firing squad was told off, and
while the allied force stopped and
beat off with gun fire the Chinese
horde that surrounded it, inside it's
lines an act of mercy was performed
as the firing squad carried out it's
orders. A few merciful volleys from
the rifles in the hands of friends and
the harassed expedition was relieved
of it's burden of wounded, the fanat-
zeal Chinese horde was cheated of
victims for it's torture and the suf-
ferings and fears of the unfortunates
were brought to an end in an honor
able death under their own flag.
