LI 11 ting Chang Raising Troops.
London, July ti. — A dispatch received
by a news agency from Shanghai, under
date of July 4, announces that the Brit
ish legation, with 100 attaches, was still
safe. _
Paris, July 6.—The French consul at
Che Foo telegraphs that a Chinaman
who left for Peking June 25 reports that
all ministers and residents were then
assembled at the British legation, the
French, German ami Japanese legations
w re guarded by their own detachments
and M. Pichon, (he French minister,
and his wife were well. The other le
gations and customhouse and missions
had been burned. The foreign troops
had lost six men killed and six mon
wounded, including the commander of
the British detachment.
London, July 0.—The oft-repeated
story of the massacre of all the whites
in Peking is being refold with circum
stantiality that almost convinces those
who have hitherto refused to credit the
sickening tales. The only hopeful fea
ture of flic evil near is the fact that it
comes from the Chinese sources at
Shanghai, but it is realized that even if
the tragedy Inc; not yet been enacted it
cannot long he delayed, unless help
comes from unknown .sources. Even
the holding of Tien Tsin against the
overwhelming hordes now seems to be a
very remote possibility, while the
safety of other treaty ports is seriously
threatened.
A dispatch from Che Foo voices a fear
that in view of the imminence of the
summer rains it will be impossible for
the joint forces to advance to Peking
until autumn.
According to reports from Shanghai
the Chiw se army, on a inarch south
ward from Peking, lias reached Lola.
This is presumably General Nieh-
Chaug’s force < nroutefo Tien Tsin. An
other force of 3,0(H) Chi aese from Lutai
has appeared northeast of Tieji Tsin,
and is reported to have been driven back
by the combined forces of Russia and
Japan. The losses of the international
forces wi ro heavy.
The native city, when captured, was
a horrible spectacle, Chinese bodies
lying thick around the grounds. The
sit ant ion in Kwang Tung grows worse.
Li Hung Chang is said to be trying to
raise a force of 200,00') militia.
Anarchy is increasing in Shan Tung
in sjiiti of the efforts of the governor to
o uirol the revolt. A band of 85 Atm r-
mn and other missionaries reached Tsin
Tau safely July.'*. Viceroy Liu is re
ported t > be freely executing disturbers
of the peace at Nankin.
Tim German chamber of commerce of
Shanghai has warned Emperor William
not to under estimate the gravity of the j
situation, but to send troops proportion
ate with the other powers.
DETAILS OF BOMBARDMENT.
Hundreds of t hincite Killed—Forts
Taken at Point of Bayonet.
Victoria, B. 0., July 0.—Details of
the bombardment of Taku forts have
been received by tiro Rio Juan Marti.
When the bombardment was com
menced the British Algerine, the Ger
man litis, the Japanese Atngo, the
United States York town and the Rus
sian Korcjtz were within ‘2,000 yards of
the forts.
A Shanghai oorresp indent of a .Tapa
ni .so paper thus described the fight:
“At 1 o’clock on Sunday morning,
while the allied fleets were quietly
anchored, without warning China de
clared war against the world by open
ing lire from the forts at Taku upon the
gunboats near the shore. The first shells
were harmless, but afterward many
struck the A'gcrineand lliis. The fleet
opened a terrible lire, blowing the forts
to pieces. The Russians troops on the
land side are reported to have eo opera-
tcd. Afterward at daylight the forts
were occupied by strong landing parties,
who drove the Chinese out at the point
of the bayonet, killing hundreds as they
fled northward.
“it is reporb d that the Algerine and
111 is are damaged. Mirny casualties, but
no list available. Japanese correspond
ents say the Yorklown after withdraw
ing from range did not enter the en
gagement.
“On June J, frit) Jiijianese, German
and Rus-itiu troops were landed to guard
the Tong Tu station and at daylight on
the morning of the bombardment, when
the forts were being fast demcUsheiL
they charged the Chinese outside and
carried the square fort, killing many in
a bayonet charge. At the same time the
si dps landed parties who attacked the
Chinese outside on the imint who were
driven northward With gn at loss. Four
hundred are. said to have been killed.”
EMPEROR COMMITS SUICIDE.

Bhanohat, July 0.—Emperor Kwang
Hsu committed suicide Ity taking opium
under compulsion of Prince Tuan June
If). The empress dowager also took
poison, but is still alive, thouglyeported
to be insane from the effects of tlie drug.
The above has been officially reported
to t)ie German consular staff.

Wasiiinotov, July 0.—The navy de
partment has received the following ca
blegram from Admiral Kempff ut Clio
Foo: “Myers of the Oregon commands

Dr. Lippitt are also there.”
UUcER INJUNCTION ISSUED.
Kansas Court Enjoins Bride Living
With Her Husband.
Fort .Scott, Kan., July 4. — Mrs.
Emma Collins John>011 was today on-
joined fiom living with inr new hus
band, J. H. Johnson.
Judge Simons, who issu 'd the order,
is not sure whether Mrs. Emma is Mrs.
Laima Collins or Mrs. Emma Johnson.
Mrs. Emma, who is a pretty younsj
woman, turned pale while she listened
to tlie judge’s severe rebuke in court.
The beautiful Mrs. Collins-Johnson
does not really know which of the two
in ’u is her husband.
Collins is bi hind bars; Johnson is d<>
barri d.
Mrs. Emma secured a decree of dt-
vo ce in Judge Simons’ court a few
weeks ago. He had three years b don
sentenced her young husband to a term
bilbo penitentiary for theft from thu
Mi-souri Pacitie railroad through a tinu -
< h ck fraud in the department in which
lie was chief clerk.
This fact e.iciied the sympathy of th i
court for the wife at the time of the di
vorce bearing, but the announcement ol
her intended marriage, publish: d a few
hours after she was divorced, incensed
the judge. An attempt was made tu
prevent the wedding, hue the ceremony
wan performed outside the jurisdiction
of the Kansas court. Judgo Simon!
l ien waited until ho could bring thu
mai ier up under a rehearing and review
of the divore i case. Then, after secur
ing the a; tendance of the pretty bride,
he is-uod the order enjoining her from
living with her secnid husband, and as
the divorce as itapjioarod upon the Kan
sas court record was a decree nisi, pro
bibbing a r. marriage, be ordered tlr
whole procedure annulled.
Situation at Tien Tsin.
Bkki.in, July (*.—A statement is pub
lish) d here that the Chinene have al
ready taken Tien Tsin, but a cable dis
patch from Shanghai shows that, ac
cording to the latest advices, the city is
still in the hands of the international
troops, though the Ohiuoso forces con-
t >1111 - their attempt to isolate then), as
they did at Peking. They are receiving
coustuni nocoHsiniis, many troojM arriv
ing from Manchuria. The dispatch adds
that Colonel Woguck, commanding the
Russians at Tien Tsin w as almost ex
hausted. He bad been three days and
nights in the saddle directing tlie ope
rations.

Nkw York, July 4.—Mrs. Belle Chai-
mi r, in her petition for limited divorce
filed in the supremo court, says that fol
two years she endured without a mur
mur all the abuses, she declares, hel
husband heaped upon her. but when ht
required her to wear his trousers in
which to do housework she resolved tc
rob 1.
They lived happily, although in ten
years the husband luwl bought hi:; wifi!
only six dresses. Two years ago, slid
alleges, he began to beat and oMierwist
abuse her. Tic did not provide properly,
she says, and she was starved. !5ti 11 slid
did not complain.
Mr. Chf.im r, the wife declares, re
fused to give her. any mousy, and do
spit' she lias had unsuitable dress, re
fused to buy her any.
Mm. Ohaimer says she was compelled
to dou the old trous -rs.
Tnc husband opposed the motion, al
leging hi.s wife had deserted him with
out cause.
CHASED BY AN ANGRY MOB.
Franco Attempted to ( ut His Wife’s
Throat Witli a Lamp f'hluiiicy.
Plainrif.i.d, N. J., July 4.—Edward
Franco, SO years old, would probably
have been lynched if ho had not escaped
from an angry crowd of citizens. It it
alleged that he had tried to murder hit
wife.
France, it is said, tried to cut hit
wile’s throat with a lamp chimney. Hit
did not succeed in his purpose of killing
the woman, but In-r throat and fucu
wore hacked in a horrible manner. .She
will probably lose her sight if .she lives,
widen is doubt fnl.
The crowd clamored for France’s life.
One man in the crowd hud a ropfl
ready for use in case France was discov
ered.
L ist winter Franco created a sensa
tion by driving hi.s wife’s two youngel
sisters from the iumso in a driving snow
storm. l b- was jealous of them because
of his wife’s love for them.

Talks of the Silver Blank—Meeting
of the Biatl'orui Committee.
Kansas City, July 0.—The platform
committee has changed the order of the
Ijresentation of subjects and placed tlie
question of imperialism in the front
rank, making its way and also by actual
declaration the paramount issue. It
says:
“While other issues arc vital the ques
tion of imperialism strikes at thu very
heart of the republic.”
Kansas City, July (3.—General A. J.
Warner of Ohio, one of the founders of
the Bimetallic league, is vigorously op
posed to the action of the majority of
.he committee on resolutions in report
ing a 10 to 1 plank in the platform.
“The idea of announcing that the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at the
ratio of 10 to 1 is a great moral princi
ple is all nonsense,” said he. “The
ratio is a thing to be determined by con
gress. Here wo have the spectacle o?
.Oklahoma and Indian Territory and
some of the smaller western states dic
tating to such states as Ohio, Indiana,
New York and Pennsylvania. It is ab
surd. Bryan is honest and earnest, but
ho is surrounded by u lot of people who
evidently control his views. It would
be simply impossible to carry Ohio or
Indiana on any such platform as is sug
gested by the majority of the resolutions
committee. # The Germans will vote
solidly against us. It forces 1(1 to J to
the front as the paramount issue of the
campaign. It is not that; but the Dem
ocratic party will have to defend it from
the minute the platform with a 10 to 1
doctrine in it is adopted. They are play
ing right into the hands of their oppo
nents. ”
HILL TALKS OF PLATFORM.
He Says the Action of the Committee
Will He Appealed.
Kansas City, July 0.—“The fight on
the platform will be carried to the flour
of the convention,” said David B. Hill.
“The action of t he resolutions committee
is not conclusive. Why just look at the
list of states that voted for a H5 to 1
plunk. It includes states that never did
bring an electoral vote to the Demo
cratic party, and states with small dele
gations in congress. Look at the list of
states that voted no. Isn’t nearly every
doubtful state in that column? Doesn’t
it include in arly every state that is a
battle ground, imd the states with the
most powerful delegations. There's In
diana, for instance, and Michigan and
Now York artd Maryland and Ohio.”
“Then you don’t consider the question
settled by the action <»f the resolutions
Committee?” Senator Hill was asked.
“No sir, it is not settled by any menus.
Wait until it comes up in the conven
tion.”
“ Why do you know,” he continued in
a rather excitable imufficr, “that we
carried the conservative proposition by
•5 votes one time and then they put up
the ery that Mr. Bryan would not ac
cept and then carried it by 2 votes.
Think of it—2 votes. Probably Hawaii
and Oklahoma—two territories that
can’t give us an electoral vote, defeat
the will of the east and the entire
Democracy. It's appalling. The strong*
est silver men are with us. Even Jones
is with us and has so declared, but he is
dominated by Mr. Bryan. Justthosame
as 1 am opposed to imperialism in a na
tion, so I sua opposed to it in an indi
vidual.
“There is imperialism of the worst
sort. However I believe we’ll beat
them.”
VIEWS OF COMMITTEE MEN;
They Decide to Abide by the Ma
jority Report.
Kansas Guy, July 0.—The committee
on platform did not reconvene until 11
o’clock. It had adjourned at 4 o’clock
with the intiutiouof getting together at
10, but the all-night vigil proved quite
trying for some of the members of the
committee, and they wore slow in col
lecting. The time previous to the formal
meeting was utilized by the leaders in
the light against the It! to 1 movement
in an effort to reach a decision as to
whether u minority report should bo
presented. There were several confer
ences, in which Sinclair, Money and
Daly were Hie principal participants.
These three members were at first dis
posed to insist ujhui the formal presenta
tion of the views of the minority, but as
one state after another which had voted
against Hi to 1 announced its decision
not to carry the matter into the conven
tion, their determination weakened and
they ultimarely derided to drop the mat
ter. This they did not do, however,
without many protests.
Daly said he was instructed by his
delegat ion against any concurrence in
the ri port of the majority and that
whether a minority report were pre
sented or not, he would not sign the re-
jxirt for 1H to 1.
Senator Money presented a tabulated
statement showing that tho votes cast
fdr the ratio represented 171 out of 930
votes in the convention. Ho said, how
ever, that his state had given him free
rein to act ns he might think best.
New York decided early in tho morn
ing not to unite in any minority pre
sentations, and this had an influence on
determining the opposition to avoid a
presentation of minority views.
Hon. George Fred Williams, who was
one of the most proinineut contestants,
was influential in turning tho tide.
The subcommittee gave u brief hear
ing to Mrs. Galt, president of thu Equal
Suffrage association, in favor of a plank
recommending an aiueuduiuiit to the
constitution forbidding the disfranchise-
meut of citizens on account of sex.
When the full committee convened at
11 o'clock the subcommittee presented a
complete diaft of iho platform as agreed
♦ipon lu.t night.

“Jiff* closed tlie open door of possible disaster to family
and estate” by making its policies inuontestalde from date
of issue.
Before you insure your life write me for sample policy
and have your lawyer to explain it to you ; it is much cheaper
than for your wife to have it to do after you are dead.
r l he living policy holders speak for us as follows :
Your first offer is Go per cent, dividends, second $1.73
for every dollar I have paid your company and twenty years’
insurance on my life without cost.
r l he New York Life Insurance Company has more insur-
ffiico in force than any company, in America. $1,001,871,1185
insurance in force ; assets $237,580,812; surplus $11,135,183.
Write me at Blacksburg, S. 0., for our rates and one of
