Li Hung Chang, who is at Shang hai, received a telegraphic dispatch announcing that the allied forces en tered Pekin Wednesday, August 15th, without opposition. All is quiet in Shanghai and in the Yang Tse valley. OLAD TIDINGS FOR BERLIN. The following received from the German consul at Shaughni was given out by the Berlin foreign office at 1 p. m. Friday: London, August. 17. —“The al lies have entered l’ckiu without fighting, the legations are relieved and the foreigners are liberated.” The collapse of Chinese resistance is explained in dispatches from Shang hai as being due to the failure of the Chinese to flood the country below Tung Chow. The earth-works con nected with tho dam at the Pei 110 were unfinished and the canal at Tnug Chow was full of water, facilitating boat transport whou tho allies arrived there. Previous information which has been received in Washington showed that the allied armies took possession on August 12th of Tung Chow, twelve TOWNE TO CHASE ROOSEVELT.

HOW ADVANCE WAS HADE. Chinese General Ma Disappeared During the Fighting at Yang Tiun. Extracts from a long dispatch from Tokio, Japan, describing the advance of the allied forces from Tien Tsin say Oeueral Ma disappeared during the fighting at Yaug Tsuu; that the immediate advance on Pekin was de cided upon at a council of war in which 385 offioers took part, held at Yaug Tsun, August 2d, aud that the adrance columns were drawn up in the following order: Japanese, Rus sians, British and American. The French contingent was obliged to re main at Yung Tsun on account of its' inadequate commissariat. miles from Pekin. After a halt of three days for rest and preparation the army attacked the capital. Contrary to the press reports, Con snl Fowler’s dispatch shows that the attack on the city met with strong re sistance. The Japanese force engaged with the advance numbering 10,000 men. The president was overjoyed on hearing the news of the safety of Minister Conger and his associates. He has been hopeful all along that their resene from the perilous position, iu which they have been for so long, would be successfully accomplished. Friday’s news confirms that hope and brings a feeling of great relief to him. The Germau press, while express ing joy at the happy discharge of one part of the program, the papers point out that there is much left to do. Tho Berliner Post says: “A great thing has been done, but a greater must be done before the al lied powers will be satisfied. It re mains to obtain redress for attacks upon the legations aud other wrongs, particularly the assassination of the German minister, aud to install a gov ernment which will punish the guilty and give guarantees against a recur rence of similar crimes.” The National Zeitung, The Freis siuige Zeitung and The Vossiohe Zei tung, express themselves iu a similar strain. Referring to a number of special dispatches appearing in German pa pers, which claim that the United States government, new that the mem bers of the foreign legations aro re lieved, is about to withdraw from the international undertaking, a high offi cial of the German foreign office said: “The Washington government has assured the other powers of its willing ness to co-operate in carrying out a joint programme. This assurance bp.s sufficed so far and will continue to suf fice in spite of newspaper stories to the contrary.” John B. Jackson, United States charge d’affaires in Berlin, when his attention was called to the specials, said: “The United States government has acted with the greatest harmony re garding China with Germany from the outset. In fact, up to Pekin the pow ers are all agreed, but beyond that no agreement has evea been attempted. The future must be left to new diplo matic negotiations.” WILL PROTECT NATIVE CHRISTIANS. A cabinet official said that the native Christians in China, said to number several thousand, will be included in any arrangement made between this government aud China incident to the cessation of hostilities. At the present stage of the Chinese situation this subject has not yet been seriously discussed by the cabinet, but there is no doubt, according to this member, that the United States is in honor bound to protect them and will sacredly look out for their security. It was stated that, whild the matter has not been formally considered, the indemnity to be collected by the United States will be not only for the families of the victims, but also prob ably to compensate this government for the expense it has been put to in prosecuting the campaign.

INGALLS DEAD Former United States Senator Dies at Las Vegas, New Mexico. HIS CAREER A DISTINGUISHED ONE Celebrated Far and Wide a* Parliamen tarian, Orator, Journalist aud Lecturer. Former United States Senator John J. Ingalls, of Kansas, died at East Las Yegas, New Mexico, at 2:25 a. m. Thursday. He was surrounded by his family. Senator Ingalls’ illness dated from March, 1899, when at Washington his throat began troubling him. He Work ed steadily writing political articles for newspapers throughout the coun try. He was treated by several spec ialists, but received no relief, and on their advice returned with his family to Atchison. At home he grew no better. Ten months ago he sought another change of climate, traveling through New Mexico. The remains of ex Senator lugalls were started for Atchison, Kas., his late home, Thursday afternoon, ac companied by Mrs. Ingalls and her youngest son, Sheffield. In accordance with a special request of Senator Ingalls every feature of the funeral will be simple. Senator Ingalls has been growing weaker gradually for some time from inability to assimilate his food, and there were also heart complications. John James Ingalls was born in Middleton, Essex county, Mass., De cember 29, 1833. Though a New Eng lander by birth, he has been so closely identified with western affairs for more than forty years, that he is gen erally believed to be a native of Kansas. Mr. Ingalls’ original American an cestor, Edmund Ingalls, was the first settler of Lynn, Mass., and members of his family performed distinguished services in the French and Indian war of the revolution. His father was noted for many in ventions, tho most important of which revolutionized the manufacture of shoes. Mr. Ingalls attended private schools in Haverhill and entered Williams college, from which he graduated iu 1855. lie immediately began the study of law and was admitted to tho bar in 1857. The following year ho moved to Atchisou, Kas., and made that city his home ever after. His professional success was rapid, aud, beiug a man of strong personality, he was soon a power in politics. In 1859 he w'as a delegate to the Wyandotte convention, which framed the first state constitution of Kansas. In 1860 he served as secretary of the territorial council, in 1861 he w r as ap pointed secretary of the state senate, arid in 1862 he was elected state sena tor. In the latter year Mr. Ingalls was also the Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, but was defeated. Mr. Ingalls then entered the news paper field and was editor of the Atch issn Champion for three years. In 1863-65 he w'as judge advocate of the state militia, with rank of major and lieutenant colonel, doing duty on the frontier. Once again Mr. Ingalls found him self the unsuccessful candidate for lieutenant governor in the fctate cam paign of 1864. Following this second defeat, he devoted the next nine years entirely to his law practice and jour nalism. He was electod to the United States senate in 1873, aud served, by re-elec tion, eighteen successive years. As senator, Ingalls was a pictur esque figure. He was a fearless cham pion of every cause he espoused, and whenever it was know* that he would speak the senate chamber was filled to overflowing. From 1889 to 1891 Mr. Ingalls was president pro tern, of the senate. Senator Ingalls a few years ago re tired from politics and devoted him self to farming and writing for the daily press and magazines. Mr. Ingalls married September 27, 1865, in Atchison, Anna Louisa Ches brough, of New York city. Eleven children, four sons and seven daugh ters, have brightened the Ingalls household.
