LEGATIONS QUITE
DESPERATE

London, July 8, 3 a. m.-"The situa-
ton is desperate. Hasten"
These words from the message of
Won Bergen, "a member of the German
legation at Pekin, countersigned by
Sir Robert Hart, inspector general Of
customs, and dated nine days ago, are
the theme of all private comment,
Everybody is preparing for news of a
frightful tragedy.
Nine days ago the ammunition of the
little garrison defending the foreigners
was running low and their food was
nearly exhausted. while around them
was horde of Kan Su braves, having
at their service Krupp guns and re-
peating rifles.
Pekin was in the hands of the revo-
luuonists.
The allies are not advancing for the
relief Of Pe6in. This announcement to
the house of commons by William St.
John William Broderick, under secre-
tary of state for foreign affairs. was
received with explanations of aston
ishment and dismay.
Sir Ellis Ashmead Bartlett inquired
for any information that had been re-
Ceived from the legations at Pekin, or
as to the composition and command of
the renewing force, ana OF the pres
ent position.
Mr.. BTOderiCk read the dispatches re-

force available is now about $4,000, as

FISHING PARAPHERNALIA LOST.
Indications Of Hard Times Ahead for

North Truro. Mass, Nov. 15.-The
westerly gale which recently swept over
the New England coost produced re-
suits the seriousness of which are just
becoming evident. The great fish weir
industry around Cape Cod has been COM
pletely wiped out, so far as contin-
uance of the present seasons work Is
concerned, Poles and nets have been
washed away and destroyed, boats have
sunk, and the disaster will be keenly felt.
The weirmer had hoped tn pull out u
very unsatisfactory seasons fishing by
the late run of nlackcrel and herring
Not only have they lost all possibility Of
a further Increase of their scanty saw
ings of money, but their gear has been
irrcparably injured.
Scores of men, most of them with fam
lilies. will be thrown out of employment
until the beginning of another fishing
season, about May1 |.
The destruction Of the nets and poles,
coming SO late in the season, precluGes
the possibility Of any resumption Of the
business this fall. Cold storage and
canning plants, which at this season of
the year are usually doing lively bust
ness, are preparing to close down.
These weirs and their accessories rep
resent a capital of more than $l5o. 900, and
the employment of 100 men. The pres
ent Is the worst disaster which has be-
fallen them since their inception In these
waters, In 1882.

man-This Seems to Do Away with

tion Was Done In the House, and
Makes II Hard to Connect the Sus-
pect, Best, with the Tragedy.

Boston. Nov. 15.--Professor Wood. the
Harvard microscopist and expert on
blood, has examined all the specimens
submitted to him in connection with the
Lynn murder mystery, and found no hui
man blood according to this mornings
Post. The Post further says:
The Inference Is that It is practically
aey e that mhasreaa0 aEf aa0dE e kGs2rFfe

cut up in the room from which the sprci-
mems We're taken from the floor and wall
and household articles.
The Post Is able to make this statement
concluslvely and exclusively. for Pro-
fessor Wood has made the same state
ment to state officer. This officer was
talking of the case with Il Post man yes
terday, and dropped the statement OF the
failure of the government to find any
blood stains. A further conversation
with him developed the information
given here.
One of the specimens was a hatchet
shaped like tomahawk. This had
blood on it and threads that looked like
red hair the color of Baileys. About
the same time The Post man found on a
chopping block parts of chicken fea theirs
of the same color. The threads of the
feathers were cut. and really did look
like hairs. 1t seems. therefore that
the hatchet, for time supposed to be
the one used in the dlsmcnberment of
Baileys body. was used to kill a chicken
outside the door to the barn cellar, where
the block was found.
While the government officers have
suggested before that Professor Wood
would not be used, it was only inference
that he was not used in the preliminary
hearing, because he had found no human
blood stains.
His finding materially weakens the
case which the state officials thought
they had against the accused, John c.

red away. Mr. Morse, who is a real
estate owner, was absent looking after
his property. His two sons, Max IL.
and Mendell, are engaged in the jewelry
business, selling to the retail trade, and
kept their stock in trade in the safe,
which stood in room which they also
occupied as a sleeping room.
The Morses occupy one Of the suites
on the first floor, consisting of front
ana r,lr bedI oom, with kitchen between.
The thieves passed the front entrance
and forced the kitchen door. which, in
addition to the usual lock, was rein
forced by bar and paddock. They
forced the paddock, then broke in the
I~~-, .Lo
front room. rolled the safe about three
feet from its position at the head of the
bed, then apparently lifted it up and
carried it to their wagon waiting out
side. and drove off.
The police We're at once notified, but
they have obtained no clue to the Identity
of the robbers. Two men with COW
cred junk wagon were seen about the
place just before noon. and again shortly
after o'clock, by neighbors, and thes' =
men the police are seeking in connection
with the case. Lowell street is near the
Boston and Maine freight tracks. and the
thieves evidently believed that their team
would not be especially noticed among
the numerous trucks and wagons that are
always in that locality.
The description of the two men as given
by neighbors is meagre. A woman ten
ant in the building, who saw the men,
asked them what they wanted, to which
they replied that they had come for an
express package She then went to her
apartments and thought no more of the
matter.
