MISSIONARIES WARNED.
Boxer Uprising Not Suppressed-Brit-
ish Minister Offended.

PEKING, Oct. 1S.-The new viceroy of
Sze-Chuen province, Tsen Chun Suan, re-
ports that the Boxers have not been sup
pressed at Chen-Tu and two other centers
and he asks the missionaries to refrain
from travelling in central Sze-Chuen at
present.
The Emperor's reception at the summer
palace to-day was attended by the diplo-
matte corps and the commanders of the
legation guards, except in the case of the
British minister. Sir Satow, he having de-
clined all social intercourse on account
of the miscarriage of justice in the case
OF the murdered English missionaries,
Bruce and Lewis in Ho-Nan province
where the responsible officials were excul-
pated and ignorant peasants were be-
headed.
The negotiations for the departure of the
international troops from Shanghai have
been interrupted. 1t appears that great
Britain, before consenting to the evacua-
ton, desires a more definite arrangement
in regard to her status in the Yang-Tse
valley and more precise stipulations con-
cerning nonalienation of territory in that
region.

row noon. He does not expect to return
to New York until after election. unless
called here on important business in con-
nection with the congressional commit
tee. He will devote his entire time until
election to his own district. He has been
asked to make speeches in other districts,
but inasmuch as he has been compelled
to be away all summer he has been COM
PEELED to decline these invitations and give
his entire time to his own constituents
Mr.. Overstreet has had the most difficult
task of any one Connected with the con-
gressional committee. He has been at his
desk every day all summer, with the ex-
ception of four days trip West. His
task has been a very hard one and all
say that he has handled the business Of
the committee in a most admirable manner.
"The next House will be Republican be-
yond all doubt" said Secretary Overstreet
to the Journal correspondent to-day. IT

of the Democratic managers say the Re-
publican state ticket in Indiana will be
defeated, also that the Legislature will
be Democratic and that the Republicans
will lose three congressman. That is all
foolishness. The Republicans in Indiana
have the best organization of any State,
and returns from there are fiattering. The
entire state ticket will be elected, the
Legislature will be Republican and we will
not lose any congressman. A host of
speakers has been sent to Indiana and

tory reports from them.

day noon to the effect that there had
been fire in the kindergarten
room during the afternoon. but
no particular damage had been
been done. We were requested
not to say anything about it. but
as in the neighborhood of five
hundred people, more or less, in
formed the TRIBUNE representative
OF the catastrophe afterwards, we
don't really believe that it will do
much harm to mention the fact.
While some OF the youngsters
were decorating a Christmas tree
a lighted candle fell from the tree
and ignited some cotton and other
infammable material. The tree
was decorated with a great num-
Der of presents, mostly the work
of the children in the kindergarten,
and a large number of parents
were present to witness the holi-
day exercises. The tree and the
presents went up in a blaze Of
glory, but the flames we're extin-
guished before any damage had
been done, and no one was hurt.
