destruction when Vice Admiral Seymour
ordered the first relief column to retreat
and to them was Anally accorded a respite
In consequence of be defeat of the Chi
nese army at Tien TBln The powers are
now exposing them thj iugh vacillation to
a renewal 0f the attack when their ammu-
nition is well nigh exhausted and they aro
dependent upon the empress dowager for
supplies of food
The camarlla Is growing bolder and
Lore Insolent whllo the generals and ad-
mirals are holding conferences and delay-
ing an advance when fighting Is likely to
be more deaprnje and the situation of
the legations more critical ln consequence
c the long halt and thp Intrigues which
ire apparently in progress
The only alternative for a march to the
capi at i negotiation through Ll Hung
Chang for the delivery of all tho foreign-
ers at Tien Tsln and for the payment of
Indemnity and tl is doubtful whether the
legations will consent to abandon their
position or whether any Chinese genoral
could conduct hem safely to tho coast
Moreover their dollvory at Tien Tsln could
only be secured under a pledge that tho
poircrs would not subsequently send an
army to the capital to effect their rein-
statement
Public opinion hero strongly favors an
advance of the allied army with all possi
ble dispatch after the empress has been
warned that she and her ministers will
be held responsible for tho safoty of the
leptlons The foreign office remains
silent but tho measures adopted lor

communications of tho tnln sters
Kith TM their governments aro closed because
douascr prefors to

cause
save the civilized world utterly in the
dark Such repirts as are allowed to
na out to tho coast are menaces like
Fu Slang has
the rumor bat Tuns
stepped the further entrance of supplies
into the Drltish legation or confess ous
of terrorism like the story that Prince
Tuns has out to death Yuan Shlh Kal and
other viceroys or glittering promises llku
the reiterated assurance that the lega
tioners are under the escort of a strong
force and are Journeying to tho coast
iH these rumors are signs that tho em
press dowager is determined to keop the
Ues out of Pekin Her motive Is plain
be is convinced that If they once enter
hecaDlta some of them will not go out
until provinces have been ceded to thorn
In place of indemnity
The situation Is so perplexed that It Is
is strange trat several powers nre hesi-
tating to start the advance but it is evl
dem that < ne empress dowager Is
strengthened by every day of Inaction and
delay The legations narrowly escaped
Chlneso to retreat from ft strong posi
tionMr
Mr Broderlck confessed that ho had no
Information respecting tho advance of tho
allies and at a hto hour nothing waB
known in Parliament about the battle
Tho press dispatches from Tien Tsln
of an earlier date reported General Tunga
troops in strength eight mllos away and
tho country as Hooded through tho open
ing of the canal bank If there lias been
a battle tho Chlneso have probably
brought on the fighting tor the allies ac-
cording to tho most trustworthy press
correspondents wore divided into two
camps and were unable to agree upon any
plan of operation
CsTew York August 0 A dispatch to tho
Trlbuno from London says Tho corre-
spondent of tho Express at Tien Tsln be-
lieves that tho advance of tho allied troop
on the capital will be strongly resisted
tho tlmo consumed in International con-
ferences having enabled the Chinese to
conccntralo an enormous force
Tho Shanghai correspondent of tho
Dally ami reports that thoro has been
great friction among the allies as to tho
appointment lot a commamderlnchIof
General MacArthur has it Is stated been
put forward for the place by the Ameri-
cans while an unofficial Paris telegram
says that General Voyron the commander
of tho French expeditionary corps ha3
actually been uppolntod

The Shanghai correspondent also says
that In tho papers of tho victory at Tien
Tsln was found receipt for 100 taels
imM to tho Boxers for the head of Major
Waller of tho United States marines who
was killed at tho first battle of Tien Tain
Tho Rev Dr Evans an English mis-
sionary searched tho yamen of the Tien
Tsln viceroy and found in his private
papers full accounts of tho doings of the
foreign forces during the seige with lists
of their killed and wounded He also
found promises of pensions to the families
of oil slain iRoxers Ho found receipts
for arms and ammunition from ovefy vil-
lage This Is proof of the official nature
of tho > Hoxer movement and also of tho
treachery of somo one ln tho ranks of
tho allies
From a trustworthy native source It Is
learned that General Ma was murdered
by a Boxer
about tho plot to got at tho whole truth
She must have known of tho meotlng ot
Brescl with Quintavnlle and Lena and
probably knew of conferences with Mala
tosn whoso headquarters aro now in
London but who Is as mysterious as ever
in his comings and goings
Emma Quazzl Is described as a rather
tall girl with dark hair and eyes aud ollvo
complexion She Is plump and very at-
tractive Tho girl was but a humblo
silk weaver like hor father in
Paterson Sho worked ln tho Paragon
mills on Straight street whore Ernestlna
Cravelle who has already made consid-
erable fnmo In connection with tho an-
archists wes cmployod Tho fathor de-
nies that sho Is a socialist and that tho
onfcv napor sho read was II Marlmento not
an anarchist paper
Sho planned for months her trip to Bu
ropo but her father Insists her only pur-
pose ln going was to see her mother and
brothers In Italy
Quazzi savs he Is sure It was a more
coincidence that brought the girl and
Urescl together on tho steamer on tho
way across tho Atlantic

tington of tho Southern Pacific railway
said in an Interview printed today
Passengers on railway trains are en-
titled to protection
People ln New York
are nlso entl led to protection but some
< got SJndbagged every night I
think the
government should put one man
well armed on ovory mall train As to
whether or not the railway companies
should put on armed guards as a proteo
t on against rain
robbery that is a ques
t on for consideration and not to bo de
elded off handed
Mr Huntington further said that If it
was known that a

DANGER from
COTTON
WORMS
Owing to excessive and con-
tinuous rains the early ap-
pearance in devastating num-
bers of the Army Worm is
practically a certainty and it
behooves cotton planters and
merchants interested in the
planters to see that they are
not caught withoutthe means
of protection when the
worms do come Aany of
the planters and merchants
have already laid in a stock
of Paris Green or London
Purple but there are many
others who are waiting until
he worms begin their work
of destruction before order-
ing poison to destroy them
and then it may be too late
Remember the lesson of 1893
when neither Paris Green
nor London Purple could be
obtained at any price from
any source Place your or-
der NOW and secure the
poison while it is herd
