C?ese Forts mn on Sifts of all t&e Great Powers. ? TM FORTS ARE CAPTURED. ---.-.. s?aa Attack Unsuspected and British, Russians. French and Germans Sustain Losses. London, June 19, 3:30 a a. m. China declared war against the world when the Taku forts opened fire upon the international fleet. The accounts of what took place are still unsatisfactory. The best semi-official information is the dispatch received at Berlin from Che Foo, which said that the Taku forts had been captured after a combined attack by the foreign warships. Three men OQ the German warship Iltis were killed and aeven were wounded. * The dispatch adds that the foreign settlements at Tien Tsin were being fired into by the Chinese. When the dispatch left nothing had been heard from the German detachment sent to Pekin or from the German legation there. The unofficial narratives, coming by way of Shanghai, vary widely and bear internal evidence of supplementing the main facts with guess work. One dispatch says that the Yorktown participated in the bombardment. Another asserts that American marines formed part of the storming force of 2,000. An Associated Press dispatch from Che Foo, dated yesterday af ternon, says : "The forts on both sides of the Taku are now occupied. The Chinese opened fire unexpectedly. The casualties to the mixed forces were as follows : "KiUed-British 1, German 3, Bussian 16, and French 1. "Wounded-British 4, German 7, Bussian 45, and French 1. "The Chinese torpedo boats were seized." West Point Cadetship Open.

The -Candidates for Governor Make it Interesting- for the Crowd. Orangeburg, S. C., June 14. There was a fair attendance at the campaign meeting today. A number of new pledges were filed, notably that of Prohibitionist Jones for United States senator. McSeeney opened and the crowd was evidently with him. There were few counter cheers for Hoyt. Besides his record as governor he spoke chiefly on the dispensary versus prohibition. The crowd was good humord but noisy, and Hoyt was annoyed. Patterson was well received. His address was chiefly regarding the impracticability of prohibit ion. He attacked McSweeney for not enforceing the dispensary law in Charleston and Columbia. The crowd yelled for McSweeney. The meeting grew rowdy and attacked private character of McSweeney. They charged McSwneuey with patronizing blind, tigers. Mc sweeney rose and pronounced the charges false. Then there were yells for McSweeney and great dis order. Gary was oil on the troubled waters. His slogan was lack of en forcement of the dispensary law. Jones said he had no especial fight to make on Tillman. His position in National polities was for tarif? for revenue on luxuries and he was opposed to Wall street's control and the trusts and believed in control of the Philippines and the surrender of Cuba to the Cubans. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. Charleston, S. C., June 14-Tue State campaign meeting started out today at Orangeburg ia red hot fashion. Tillman said it was a regular monkey and parrot outlook. It is evident that the plan out lined is to push Hojt and Mc Swneeney to the wall. Patterson took the lead in the attack and jumped on McSweeney vigorously. To begin with, Patterson accused McSweeney with being in political league with the blind tigers in Charleston and Columbia and then, to rourd off the period, read a recent editorial from the Oe COD ee News in which Editor Vernor said he had the proof against Mc sweeney, that he patronized tigers., McSweeney got up and emphati cally said the charge was false, and theie that matter ended. The proof is the next step if there be any. Then Pasters m said everyone thought the governor was paying for all the papers he was getting and paying for, but he found the State was paying for them all and even paying for the Hampton Guardian and the Herald and News. McSweeney explained that it has been the custom, and he wanted data on State affairs. Patterson also jumped on the governor for paying $20 for a picture of the governors of the State. Gary favored dispensary, but want ed each county allowed the chance to say what it wanted. Pattern son and Gary both jumped Hoyt for an editorial in the Mountaineer last January, m which he is alleged to have written in effect : The prohibitionists and opponents of dispensary should go together as far as they could and destroy the great whiskey machine, which is the impediment to piohihition, and let's agree as we can upon a plan which will give prohibition a m&jor part of the territory wrested from the com mon enemy. Col. Hoyt was in the thought to be insincere. A. Crane Jones entered tho race DO YOU GET DP WITH A LAME BACK? Kidney Tron?le Blakes Tou Miserable.

Tillman was received with old time ardor, and he said he would go to South Dakota or elsewhere and enter contests if he could do any good there. He will attend but few meetings. Jones made a general argument, making no at j W. D. Evans, J. H. Wharton, J. N. Etheridge, J. E. Petigrew, B. B. Evans and T. N. Berry en tered the racb for railroad commis sioner, B. B. Evans was lively. Ellison Capers Jr., and J. J. McMahan had a bit of a scrap in their contest. J. H. Moore is running against Bellinger, but does not expect much. R. H. Jennings and Dr. Tim merman are having a pleasant race. Derham and Brooker livened up a bit. Sloan, Blease, Wi nkler and J. H. Tillman are in the race for Lt. Governor. * Tillman got after Blease and Winkler for buying Harris Li th i a water. Special to The State. Charleston, Jone 16.-The cam paign meeting here was held in Hibernian hall and was called to older at 6 o'clock this evening. The candidates spent the day in pursuit of pleasure-and votes. There were 500 people in the au dience when the speaking b?gan, and the crowd gradually increased. The candidates for attorney gen eral spoke first. J. H. Moore was the first speaker to-night. He stated that Bellinger baa underrated his strength. He was applauded when he asked what had become of the ,bonds of de faulting dispensers. Bellinger said he had done his daty without prostituting his office to the plane of a detective agency. He couldn't be a prosecuting offi cer iu every trial justice court in South Carolina. TALKED OF THE PAST. Dr. Tiramerman aod Capt. JPD nings, the two candidates for treasurer, related old times in Charleston, the former when a medical student, the latter when a soldier. J. P. Derham said that the errors and irregularities charged to the comptroller's office occurred before his term. Mr. Brooker renewed his charge of neglect and carelessness in the camptroller's office. IS CHARLESTON A WHALE? Brooker said that Charleston had become the biggest city in the South lately, because it had swal lowed Ben Tillman. (Voice - "He'6 a big man." Cheers.) CAMPAIGN OF EDUCATION. Ellison Capers, Jr., candidate for superintendent of education, had once been a citizen of Charles ton. He charged McMahan with trying to take the election of county superintendents out of the hands of the people and in drag ging the whole educational system into the State house. He was well received. McMahan said that he wanted the office two years ago in order that ho might uplift the common schools. His speech was frequently applauded. He had not pursued a milk and water policy of trying to please everybody. GOLD LACE GENTLEMEN. Adjutant General Floyd in the home of his opponent received a hearty welcome. He declared his surprise that opposition should come from Charleston. (Voice-Yon haven't got any pie.) Mr. Rouse had his friends too in the audience, ano he asked for their support, as he believed in home rule. Charleston and the rest of the State are getting closer together. AFTER THE GOOD LIQUOR? When the candidates for railroad commissioner were trotted out the popular chord was struck by Barney Evans. Mr. W.D.Evans was called home, and B. B. Evans made a speech along a new line. He caught the crowd by stating that with all her conventions com ing here Charleston had nothing but a horse lot for passengers to alight in. Winter tourists would never stop here if they once stuck their heads out of the car window and saw the depots. The crowd howled when he congratulated Charleston upon obtaining the dry dock. He referred to the waste of Charleston in paying .$9,000 for a a fright bureau and importing a man from New Orleans to conduct it. He declared that this work should be done by the railroad commission, and the statement was cheered. The railroad com mission, he declared, does nothing but ride around on the train and drink good liquor. Mr. Wharton struck a responsive chord in speaking of Charleston's opportunity as a cotton centre if proper rates could be obtained. Mr.W. D Evans, Mr W. D. Mayfield and Mr. J. G. Etheredge sent regrets. Col. Elliott was sick and could not be there. MUD SLINGING. The candiates for solicitor indulged in mud-slinging. H. B. Matthews of Charleston seemed to have the crowd with bim. Mr. W. H. Thomas made a ring ing speech and Hildebrand made a good humored speech. INATTENTIVE TO JONES. Mr. A. C. Jones, candidate for the United States eenate, then spoke. He charged that Milman had gotten for Charleston the ransportation of troops and the dry do?k in retnrn for the vote of Charleston, lie claimed that ho could better represent them and do more for them than Tillman. He stated his position on national issues, but the crowd wasn't listen ing. When he sat down there were cries for McSweeney. THE WOULD-BE GOVERNORS. The candidates for governor were allowed 30 minutes each. Patterson was the first at the bat. He had some friends in the andi ence. A drunken fellow interrupted Patterson : "What do you know about liquor?" "You kuow all about it," retorted Patterson. "You must be a blind tiger yourself." The crowd applauded Patterson ; the other fellow got mad and the police put him out. Fair play was to be aocorded every speaker. L06? IN THE JUNGLE. . He made the statement that there were 354 blind tigerB and only four constables in Charleston. Voice-That's enough.. Maj. Brodie-Get him to appoint you constable and you will do the whole business. MAC SHAKES HIS FINGER. The crowd listened to Bm patiently until he repeated the charge of the Ocouee News. When Mcsweeney advanced to the front of tho Btage and shook-his finger in Patterson's faca, the crowd went wild and yelled itBelf hoarse. McSeeney said that he had twice Defore pronounced the statement absolutely false. When he made his charge against McSweeney for paying for news papers out of his contingent fund, he was greeted on several sides with "You would have done it too." He was applauded. NOT A WALLOWER. Mr. Gary was frequently ap plauded, especially when he declar-. ed that he would not indulge in mud slinging. He stated that one of the Charles ton paper*- had put him in the attitude of unfriendliness to Charleston. He told where, as speaker, he had benn Charleston 's friend. He saw no reason why the dis pensa}7 should be forced down unwilling throats althougbt the law a good one. (Cheers.) His adv&cacy of increased pension apyropriations hit the crowd. Patterson-Explain whether you local option plan includes bij<h license. Gary-This crowd knows my position. (Cries: "Right,") M'SWEENEY WAS AT HOME. This was McSweeney's crowd' He recalled that here be com menced his life work. He was running on his record and invited an inspection of his record. Every governor had paid for papers out of contingent fund. He asked why Patterson kept making these flimsy, non-sensical attacks on him. He favored the dispensary and had enforced it differently from what it had been. There had been no bloodshed. In regard to the custom house busi- <oss he said it had wound up byremoving the most notorious old Republican in this State. When McSweeney concluded, the bulk of the crowd left, but quite a number remained and gave close and thoughtful attention to Col. Hoyt's strong presentation of his platform. It waa 10 o'clock when he began speaking. The candidates for lieutenant governor, were then presented. Blease spoke of his record in behalf of the Citadel. He favored the disensary. JIM'S DRINKING JOKE. J. H. Tillman was well received. He was opposed to prohibition. Had never drunk liquor to excess, but he wanted the privilege of drinking it whenever he wanted it. He told several jokeB on his fei law aspirants. COL. LIVINGSION'S DEBUT. j Col. Knox Livingston made his 1 debut. He staled that he was now enjoying the honor of representing 1 Marlboro in the senate and he was J perfectly independent in this cam- , paign. He announced no plat form. Mr Winkler said that he would be glad to have the vote of Char leston, as he was bom in this city. ( Col Sloan wound up the celebra- , tion. He had always stood up for t the Charles ton ians. He had fooght ' the metropolitan police bill and had worked for its repeal. He was in favor, of local option. rt Many women lose their girlish forms after they become mothers.
