TROOPS FIGHT
THE“BOXERS”
The Confict In China Begins In
Earnest.
MORE AMERICANS ARE LANDED
Admiral Kempf and Minister Con
ger Both Reiterate the Seri
ousness of Situation.
The secretary of the navy Ims re
ceived the following cable from Ad
miral Kempf, commanding the United
States steamship Newark, lying at the
Taku forts at the mouth of Pei Ho
river, dated Taku, China, June 5:
“Engagement has commenced.
Have landed force of fifty sea
men more —battalion of marines.
“Kempf.”
The cipher message is not entirely
legible, and it is supposed at the navy
department the admiral means that he
has landed fifty seamen to reinforce
the band of marines already ashore.
Minister Conger, at Pekin, cabled
Wednesday that the situation was
■worse at Pekin, and this statement,
taken in connection with Admiral
Kempff’s alarming cablegram, decided
the state department to strengthen the
naval forces nearest the scene of trou
ble. According' v a cablegram was
sent to Admiral Remey, at Manila, di
recting him to dispatch at once to Ad
miral KempfT’s command the gunboat
Helena, or if that cralt is not at Ma
nila and ready for immediate service,
then some craft of correspondingly
light draft and power.
Dispatches from Shanghai state that
the soldiers dispatched to attack the
Boxers have fought an engagement
quite close to Pekin. Many were
killed on both sides.
In consequence of the representa
tions of Japanese the landing of a
large Russian force to Taku is alleged
to have been stopped.
It is believed in Shanghai that
should Russia persist in sending a
prepondering military force to the
front a collision with Japan will inev
itably result.
Alarming reports are current of the
hurried completion of the mobilization
of the Japanese fleet.
News from Tien Tsin is to the
effect that the Chinese servants of a
Belgian engineer, who left Pao Ting
Fu two days after the Belgians, saw
five foreign and two Chinese dead bod
ies in the grand canal, one being the
body of a woman. A boxer placard
threatens the extermination of the for
eigners in Tien Tain on June 10th.
Violent dissensions are reported to
exist between the Chinese commander
in-chief of the forces, Jung In, and
Prince Ching Tuan, who, in accord
ance with the wishes of the dowager
empress, is strongly supporting the
cause of the boxers.
The mobs who murdered the Eng
lish missionaries, Robinson and Nor
man, mutilated aud disemboweled the
bodies.
“boxers” are semi-barbarians.
More or less uncertainty and igno
rance exists in the pnblic mind relative
to the Chinese secret society known as
the “boxers,” whose present activity
threatens to precipitate the long an
ticipated partition of the celestial em
pire. According to The Loudon
Daily Mail the Chinese Society of
Boxers constitutes in reality a great
clan of murderers, estimated to con
tain in its ranks over 11,000,000 semi
barbariins, well organized, well arm
ed, and as savage in their fanaticism
as the Soudan dervishes.
The society was originally formed
with the beneficent intention of pro
tecting honest men in China from
bandits. It was called Ta Tao Hwri,
which means ’“The Society of the
Great Sword,” a title which seems to
have been changed at a comparatively
recent date to the more familiar name
which so often appears in our news
papers just now. When and where
the clan originated is not certain.
A “PEACH” KESOLLTIOX
Introduced In th* Senate By Mr. Mason,
of IlUnole.
A Washington dispatch says: Sena
tor Mason introduced the following
resolution Monday:
“The United States hereby ex
presses the hope that the war in
South Africa may cease at an early
day upon terms of fairness to both
England and the Transvaal.’’
Boer Peace Envoys At Cleveland.
The Boer envoys and their party re
ceived a number of callers at Cleve
land, 0., Monday morning. At 1:30
p. m. they gave a reception, several
hundred people attending.
ROBERTS’ PROGRAM
Cannot Be Prognosticated Until
Further Particulars—Boer
Army Intact.
I ntil the situation in the neighbor
oood of Pretoria is enlightened the
officials in Loudon, as well as others,
will flnd difficulty iu prognosticating
Lord Roberts’ immediate program.
It appears evident that the Boer
commander-in-chief, General Botha,
with all his gnus, withdrew in good
order, probably along the Dolngoa
bay railroad with the view of joining
President Kruger.
So the Transvaal forces remain
practically intact with President Kru
ger; President Hteyn and General
Botha aud Secretary of State Reitz all
safe and iu a position to continue the
direction of affairs. The most opti
mistic see iu the fact that President
Kruger’s wife and General Botha’s
wife were left at Pretoria, an indica
tion that the president does not count
on a long resistance, iu any case it
will probably take Lord Roberts at
least a week to organize a campaign of
pursuit.
Wednesday Lord Roberts telegraph
ed to the war office as follows:
Pretoria, June 5, 5:35 p. m.—The
occupation of the town passed off most
satisfactorily, aud the British flag is
now hoisted on top of the government
offices. The troops mot with a much
more enthusiastio reception than I
anticipated. The Third battalion of
the Grenadier Guards lined the square
when the march p>ast took place.
Owing to their having been on duty
at some distance around the town, very
few cavalry aud infantry were able to
fake part in the ceremony.
Several of our officers who had been
prisoners were among the onlookers.
FIGHTING NEAR PRETORIA.
Some dispatches are to hand which
left Pretoria Monday while the fight
ing was going on outside the city.
They come by way of Lourcuzo Mar
ques. One of them says:
“Toward the end of the day, when
the British naval guns were shelling
the southern forts, a number of pro
jectiles burst, damaging the suburb.
All day armed burghers have been
leaving Pretoria, going east. The
greater part of the railway rolling
stock bus been removed.
“General Botba was fighting an
essentially reur guard action, his ob
ject being not to defend Pretoria but
to delay Lord Roberts until the rail
way switch bad been cleared and the
main part of the Boer army bad started
to withdraw. The British advance ap
pears to have left open to the Boers
the best line of retreat along the rail
way.”
CAXXOX HELD HOUSE.
Adjournment Program W Not Carried
Out In Consequence.
A Washington special says: After
everybody bad felt assured of adjourn
ment Wednesday evening without any
trouble the Republicans of the bouse
got into a wrangle among themselves
and the result was a recess until
Thursday at 10 o’clock.
The cause of trouble was the item
intended to take from the coast and
geodetic survey much of its work and
baud it over to the navy.
The navy people have been palling
bard for this and the senate has been
with them, but the house, under the
special leadership of Cannon, chair
man of the appropriations committee,
has made a fight for the coast and
geodetic survey, claimiug that the
senate provision would kill that branch
of the government.
Cannon attacked the house confer
ees, chargiug that they bad not acted
in good faith. This brought on a
general fight with Foss, chairman of
the committee, and Grosvenor and
others. There were charges and coun
ter charges of a highly interesting na
ture and these brought in the sharpest
kind of an exchange of personalities.
Finally Cannon succeeded in doing
something that is very seldom done,
and that was to briug about the sub
stitution of anew set of conferees.
CAUUHT OX TRESTLE.
Two Children Cruehed lo Death and An
other I’.adly Injured.
A special from Selma, Ala., says: As
Mrs. Harper, Birdie Buttles, a young
lady and Hugh and Edward Buttles,
small boys, attempted to cross a tres
tle about half a mile from Lake La
nier, they were run down by the
Southern passenger train from Merid
ian. Horror stricken, they screamed
and made an eflbrt to get off the tres
tle, but too late, the irou monster was
upon them, carrying death, instant
and fearful, in its wake.
Mrs. Harper hastily jumped from
the trestle into the small stream be
low, and escaped injury.
Birdie Buttles was struck by the en
gine, instantly killed aud horribly
mangled.
Hugh Suttles was also struck and
instantly killed, his body being man
gled almost beyond recognition.
Edwin, the other brother, escaped
with his life, but one arm was terribly
mangled, and it is a question whether
or not he will recover from the shcck.
