 Was Welcome News
 The message of Mir Conger was very welcome to the authorities here. Another statement in MT. Congers despatch rela- tive to the decision of the generals not to enter the Imperial Palace, appears to ex- plain the movement of the American troops which the press despatches were unable to clear up, in relaxing the attack upon the palace gates, after capturing all but one of them. Another event of the day of some interest was the order des- patching the Castine from Shanghai to Annoy a distance of about four hundred miles. The little gunboat should make the run in about two days under favorable coalitions. Her force is small, but suffic- tent to serve the moral purpose if there be need for such. It appears that she is ordered to Annoy quite as much on account of representation from we'll informed busi- ness circles as from any official advice. The consul at Annoy, agreeing with the representations of the business interests, it was decided to be proper to send gum boat to Annoy, not because of any particu- lar apprehension as to Japans aspirations but to prevent rioting at this dangerous point.
 Message from Chaffee
 The first direct word from General Chaf- fee since August IS came today in the form of cablegram dated today at Taku, re- porting the action of the Sixth Cavalry with the enemy near Tien Tsin on the 18th. The cable follows
 'Taku, August 27. - Adjutant General, Washington Colonel Wint, on the 18th, reports marched at 4 a. m and engaged large force of enemy seven miles from city; dispersed them, killing about 100. Ameri- cans had wounded. Will cable names of wounded soon as ascertained.
 (SignedD "CHAFFEE."
 Colonel Wint is lieutenant colonel of the Sixth Cavalry, but is acting as colonel in the absence of Colonel Sumner, who is in Europe. The fight probably occurred near Tien Tsin, as the Sixth Cavalry was at that place at the time mentioned.
 This cable adds nothing to the informa- tion previously reported by Admiral Remey
 Although General Chaffee's cable is dated Taku, it is assumed that it was for warded from Pekin over the field tele- graph line or by courier, probably the lat ter. The fact that the dispatch was sent from .Taku today provides that the cable between Taku and Che Foo is working and that there is no longer any interrup- ton on the land lines from the latter point. to Shanghai.

General Frey's Report

Paris Aug. H.-General Frey; the com mander of the French force in northern China, in his account of the operations of the French contingent, says that with the Russian forces, also under him, he seized the Chen Chemen gate of Pekin August 16, defea ting large number of Manchu troops who defended 1t with cannon. The general adds that his forces next captured the Si Hoamen gate, after long resistance and marched to Pei Tang and rescued Mon signor FaYoir and the Europeans beseiged there. He says the entire distance between the marble bridge, the imperial palace and Pei Tang bristled with entrenchments and were desperately defended by heavy Chinese forces and that most difficult and exhaust ing fighting was necessary to dislodge the enemy. Throughout the day Pichon, the French minister, and the legation staff marched beside General Frey. Finally his column occupied Carbon Hill. The French had four men killed and two officers and three men wounded. The Russians and Jap anese also suffered.
 The general pays high tribute to the cour- age of the troops, who accounted for more than 800 Chinese dead left on the field.

The coroner's inquest today in the case of Jobin Meyers brought in a verdict of death by bullet wounds from parties un- known" In the case of Michael Ryan the verdict of the jury was death by leaden bullets fired from Mrs. Wright's house by parties unknown"
 The inquest over the body of Bessie AL ter was completed tonight The jury held Mrs. Wright to the grand jury without bail. Mrs. Wright was taken to Watseka this noon as measure of safety from possible mob violence.
 During the morning when she seemed in great danger from the crowd, the Mayor ordered the saloons immediately closed. The intense excitement that prevailed all day has subsided, and order is restored. The re- moval of Mrs. Wright to the Watseka jail seems to have stopped all mob talk and the law will probably be allowed to take its course. Later news of the condition of George Willoughby and Peter HAuer. the two wounded deputies. is very discourage ing and the corner will probably have two more inquests to look after shortly It was reported at first that three of Mrs. Wright's girl patients" had perished in the fire. but this Is now thought to be . mistake.

geries BY Experts.

New York, October 19.-The prelimi-
nary examination of Albert 7. Patrick
and Charles F. Jones, charged with at
tempting to defraud the estate Of Will
liam NJ Rice by forged check for $685.
900 drawn in Patrick's favor on Sven
son & Sons, bankers, of this city, was
resumed to-day. Mr.. Tyrrell, the Mil
waukee expert on handwriting, gave as
his opinion that the signatures to the
$25,OOO and $65,0O0 checks submitted to
him are forgeries. His testimony cor
roborated that of Kinsley and. Calvalho.
Harry Tolman, of Chicago, who de-
scribed himself as "microscopical ex-
pert" declared the checks forgeries. He
also pronounced as forgeries the sigma
ture to other checks, including one for
s135, 900 on the Fifth Avenue Trust Com
pany, and papers of assignment and
revocation Night. At this point Osborne
said, "The people rest" and on applica-
ton Of Mr. House adjournment was
taken to Wednesday next, when the de-
fense will begin.
