the withdrawal of troops from Pekin
and for consenting in the interest of
friendly relations to use your kindly
offices between China and the friendly
powers who have been offeuded on ac
count of the recent unexpected up
rising in China. We, therefore, es
pecially delegate our envoy extraordi

For this we shall feel unbounded

peaceful settlement of all questions
between China and the powers whoso
interests and natioas have so griev
ously suffered wrongs in your maj
esty’s dominions, and that the out
come may be the complete effacement
of all feeling between them.
“The desire of this goverumeut that
such a settlement may be brought
about speedily has been made known
to all the powers, and 1 trust that ne
gotiations may begin so soon as the
other offended governments shall be
effectively satisfied of your majesty’s
ability and power to treat with just
sternness the principal offenders who
are doublv culpable not alone toward
the foreigners, but toward your majes
ty, under whose rule the purpose of
China to dwell in concord with the
world has hitherto found expression
in the welcome and protection assured
to strangers. William McKinley.”

FIVE FIREMEN DEAD
An Ilia lle.ult of LMgnatroui Conflagra
tion at St. Paul, Minn.
Asa result of a fire which broke out
in the slaughter pen of A. V. Hinman
Sc Co.’s packing house at St. Paul,
Minn., shortly after midnight Sunday
night, five firemen are dead and a
number of others injured and property
to the amount of about $450,000 was
consumed.
From the packing house the flames
spread to the warehouse of the North
western Lime Company, thence to the
McCormick Harvester Company’s large
brick warehouse, filled with valuable
farm machinery. It was here that the
fatalities occurred. The firemen of
engine company No. 13 had entered
the McCormick warehouse to be in a
better position to fight the flames.
There was a tank containing 200
gallons of gasoline in the rear part of
the building, and its explosion shat
tered the walls and buried the men in
the debris. Andrew Johnson was
taken from the ruins alive, but so
badly injured that he died during the
day. The bodies of the other victims
were recovered later. Tho losses so
far as can be ascertained are as fol
lows:
The McCormick Harvester company
was the heaviest loser, its loss footing
up $390,000. Of this, SBO,OOO was on
buildings and $300,000 on stock. They
carry no insurance. Other losses
bring the total to nearly $450,000.
Losers other tbau the McCormick
company are well protected by insur
ance.
