MINISTER CONGER IS ALIVE
Message From Him Is Received
By Washington Officials.
AUTHENTICITY NOT DOUBTED
riessage Came to Chinese flinis
ter Wu In Answer to Inquiry
Sent Some Days Ago.
A Washington special says: United
States Minister Conger is alive in Pe
kin. An official cipher cable dispatch
has been received from him through
the Chinese minister, Wn Ting Fang.
Minister Conger cables from the Brit
ish legation in Pekin. He says he is
under continued shot and shell from
Chinese troops and that quick relief
only can prevent a general massacre.
Minister Conger’s official despatch, as
translated and given out by the state
department is as follows:
“In British Legation, Pekin.—
Hay, Washington, care Wu Ting
Fang; Under continued shot and
shell from Chinese troops. Quick
relief only can prevent general
massacre. Conger."
The cablegram was received by Wn
Ting Faug at 8:30 o’clock Friday
morning. It was in the state depart
ment cipher and was transmitted
through the tstiug li vamen and the
Shanghai taoti. Immediately upon
receipt of the message, Minister Wn
hastened to the state department with
it,where Secretary Hay caused it to be
deciphered at once.
The receipt of the cable has thrown
Washington into a state of great ex
citement and rejoicing. Shortly after
the minister’s message had been de
ciphered the following official state
ment was made by Secretary Hay at
the state department:
“On the lltli of this month the state
department communicated a brief mes
sage asking tidings of Minister Conger
in the state department code. Mr.
Wu undertook to get this into Minis
ter Conger’s hands if he were alive.
He has succeeded in doing this.
“This reply was in the state depart
ment cipher, and it is regarded as
genuine, inasmuch as forgeries seem
under such circumstances impossi
ble.”
In reply to a question Adjutant Gen
eral Corbin said it was impossible now
to say what effect the receipt of Mr.
Conger’s dispatch would have on mil
itary operations in China or on our
preparations here. He said he did
not know but that increased military
haste might precipitate matters in
China.
Within an hour the welcome intel
ligence that Conger had been heard
from, a4ter weeks of silence and evil
report, was flashed through the whole
country, and, indeed, throughout the
world, dispelling the gloom which had
prevailed everywhere and bringing to
the officials and to the public gener
ally a sense of profound relief.
First of all, from the standpoint
of the administration officials, the
most welcome feature of the message
was its assurance that the American
minister himself was alive on July
18th. But with the cheering news
came the ominous statement of Minis
ter Conger that the beseiged foreign
ers were in the British legation under
continued shot and shell from Chinese
troops, and that only quick relief could
avert a general massacre.
After the first flush of thankfulness,
this graver feature of the message be
gan to impress itself upon cabinet
officials most deeply. As one of them
remarked:
“There are the poor creatures penned
up under fire of shot and shell, and
appealing to us for help.”
The consultation brought about no
pronounced change of policy, for it
was felt that already every euergy had
been spent toward meeting the situa
tion, and that there was absolutely
nothing more that could be done. Af
ter all, the cabinet officials felt, and so
stated, that the message was an evi
dence of friendliness and good faith of
the pro-foreign element of the Chiuese,
and that wisdom dictated a course
which would continue to utilize this
friendship.
OFFIGKBS ELECTED
By the Southern Imlimlrlal Lrague For
the Knaulixc Year.
The Southern Industrial leaguers,
in session at Atlanta, Ga., Fridav,
elected D. A. Tompkins, of Chartotte,
N. C. t president of their organization,
to succeed J. K. Orr, of Atlanta, whose
term expired. Vice presidents electod
to serve with Mr. Tompkins are:
C. W. Ashcraft, Florence. Ala.
A. H. West, Madison, Fla.
P. K. McCully, Anderson, S. C.
W. J. Kincaid, Griffin, Ga.
George Winston, Raleigh, N. C.
H. H. Hargrove, Shreveport, La.
E. H. Dial, Meridian, Miss.
F. C. Collier, Dallas, Texas.
The government accepted the mes
sage as authentic and Secretary Hay
transmitted it to all our ambassadors
and ministers abroad, with instruc
tions to lay it before the respective
governments to which they are ac
credited, and to urge upon them the
necessity of co-operation for immedi
ate relief of the foreigners at Pekin.
A message was sent by Secretary Long
to Admiral Remey, conveying the in
telligence of the desperate situation
in Pekin and instructing him to “use
and urge every possible endeavor for
relief.”
The message, Secretary Long ex
plained, meant for Admiral Remey to
himself “use” and to “urge” upon the
commanding officers of the other pow
ers the use of every endeavor for the
relief of Pekin. Secretarv Root sent
a similar notification to Colonel
Coolidge, the senior American officer
ashore, at Tien Tsin, but without in
junction. This action was the result
of the conference of Secretaries Hay,
Long and Root.
It was realized that the land and
naval forces now in China could not
single-handed push on to Pekin, and
the other powers accordingly were
appealed to, on the base of Minister
Conger’s message, to co-operate for in
stant relief. Secretary Hay explains
his reasons for placing reliance in the
authenticity of Minister Conger’s dis
patch, saying that it was a complete
reply in code to the code message sent
to him, and that its authenticity was
vouched for by the tsung li yamen.
“Of course” said Secretary Hay,
smiling, “I am not omniscient and
may be fooled, but I cannot see how
the authenticity of Minister Conger’s
cable can be questioned.”
BECKHAM NOMINATED
For Governor By Democrats of
Kentucky—Strong Platform
Is Adopted,
Governor Beckham was nominated
by the Democratic state convention of
Kentucky, at Lexington, by acclama
tion at 3:05 o’clock Friday morning,
and the convention adjourned within
thirty minutes thereafter.
After the navies of Judge Black, of
Bnrbourville, and Judge Tarvin, of
Newport, were placed iu nomination
a roll call of the convention was be
gan. When LcLean county was reach
ed Beckham had .the 547 votes neces
sary to nominate. Then Black and
Tarviu’s names were withdrawn and
the latter at once moved that the nomi
nation of Beckham be made unani
mous. The motion carried and Beck
ham was escorted to the platform,
where he made a speech of acceptance.
It was 2 a. m. when Senator Black
burn presented a report from the
committee on resolutions. The re
port as adopted was in part as fol
lows:
“We heartily indorse the magnifi
cent platform adopted by the national
Democratic convention at Kansas City
July 5, 1900, and also the splendid
ticket named by said convention and
pledge the Democracy of Kentucky to
an earnest, cordial and active support
of said ticket.
“The Democratic jiarty recommends
that the election law of 1898, known
as the Goebel law, be so amended that
the most hypercritical can find no ex
cuse for charging fraud or unfairness
to our party in the conduct of the
election.
“The mob and the assassin shall
not be the arbitrators of the citizens
of Kentucky, nor shall the penalty of
an appeal to the law’ and the regular
constituted authorities be death at the
hands of assassins.”
Sincerest grief is expressed over the
death of Governor William Goebel.
Every sincere lover of civil and per
sonal liberty is iuvited to join in a
campaign against the forces gathered
under the banner of “A Government
by Assassination.”
In coucrusion the administration of
Governor J. C. W. Beckham was
'itrongly indorsed.

AUTHENTICITY UNDOUBTED.
Some Reasons Wliy the Conger Cableßram
Min'.ilci Be Genuine.
A Washington speoial says: Natural
iy after the importance of the commu
nication from Mr. Conger, the first
impulse was to make sure of its au
thority. Secretaries Hay and Long
felt no doubt that the message convey
ed internal evidence of authenticity.
Supposing that the Chinese govern
ment had obtained possession of the
state department’s code it could not be
conceived to what purpose it would
serve to represent the urgency of
pushing relief forces towards Pekin. If
the imperial government is making
war on the internationals it would
surely not forward an effort to get
foreign troops into its own capital.
