Abandoned and Perished.

Washington, July 6--tNot a single
foreigner is now alive in Pekin," is the
latest Chinese report which has reached
Shanghai. Earlier reports from the
same sources describe the condition of
the British legation as something
awful.
That the foreigners at the Chinese
capital have been to their
horrible fate seems no longer open to
doubt in the light OF the message re
ceived by the Associated Press from
TalSu, announcing the decision of the
admirals regarding h hopelessness of
further attempts to relieve Pekin under
the circumstances The same message
seemed to foreshadow the evacuation
of Tien Tsin by the international

Court VII Escape
Columbus, Kas, July 1O.-News was
received here that the supreme court
has declared the court of common pleas
for Crawford and Cherokee counties to
be void It is very far reaching in its
effects, especially in Cherokee county,
as e. f. Sapp, judge of that court at
h Galena division, has tried a very
large number of cases, many of which
are very important and a number of
persons have been sentenced to the
penitentiary, and to the reform school
by him John Norton, who was con-
victed of murder in the second degree
in the court of common pleas for killing
Marion Thomas, the city marshal of
Empire City, had just been sentenced
to twenty years in the penitentiary by
Judge Sapp. But the decisions hold
ing the court to be void will have the
effect to set aside the judgment in
this as well as many other cases. This
will in all probability cause the dis
trict court of this county in the Sep
TENDER term to be greatly crowded
Some attorneys are already taking
steps to have clients released from
sentence imposed by Judge Sapp.

Janan,s Compensn4ion.

Washington, July lot is said that
Japan is to be compensated for the
work she is about to undertake in the
common cause. Her military preparav
tions are very extensive and the cam
paign is certain to involve heavy cost.
1t would be unjust to expect Japan to
meet this herself.
If the powers have agreed upon the
form OF Japan's indemnity, the facts
can not be elected here. The impress
sion, however, is that there will be a
money indemnity, the belief being
based on the fact that such is the only
form of indemnity SO far suggested
that would be least likely to arouse
international jea1ousies-
