Washington, Jane 8 ?The follow? ing cablegram was rceived at the navy department this morning from Admiral Kempff. on board tbo Newark, off tho Taku forts : Yoog Ku, June 8, 1900. Battle yesterday between Chiocsn aod boxen near Tieo Tsio. Largo numbers of boxers expeoted to reaob Tieo Tsio tomorrow. Kempff. Minister Conger, at Pekin, also has been besrd from todsy. His message to the state department raid there wae no improvement io the situation, sod asked for instructions. Ssoretsry Hay took ths message to the oabioet meet? ing, where tbs answer will be framed. The slate department is steadfastly pursuing lbs line of polioy laid dowo at tho bogiooisg of this boxer trouble ?of avoiding any interference with Chinese internal affairs beyond snob meteoros ss may be absolutely oeoes sary for tho proteotioo of American lifo sod property there. Especially is it detsrmioed to amid oommitmeot to the polioies of soy of tbo European powers which might involve the Uoited States in trouble. Therefore, notwithstanding the ominous news oooveyed in Admiral Kempd's cablegram, it seems eotireiy probable that Mioiater Coogcr will be direoted to stiok to tbo same lioe of polioy which be bad pursued to this time. It is oot to be understood by this that the Uoited States is desirous of evading aoy proper measure of respon? sibility, aod the state department effi oisls are oaraful to poiot out that, j while retaining our iodepeodeooe of aettoo, our government is really acting concurrently with the European gov? ernments respeotiog this boxer agita? tion. Thus at Taku, Admiral Kempff is acting in a similar msnner to the commanding officers of tbo foreign navy there assembled, although bis orders are eubjeot to the approval of no one. At Tieo Teio, 40 miles op the river, which the admiral expects to be attaoked tomorrow, the foreigo oaval oommaods are acting together. It is eaid that io oase of ao emer gaoey involving jeopardy to the lives of foreigners the Uoitod States forces at Tieo Teio migbt eveo be directed in their general movement by the ssoior osval offieer ashore, eveo though that cffio-T should happen to be a Ger? man, a Russian, a Freoohman or tu Englishman This temporary subordi natioo of authority migbt be brought about aod io faot would exist solely through a military exigeooy. If Tieo Teio ie to be attaoked by a vast horde of boxers, it is entirely conceivable, aoeordiog to military praotiee, that a successful defeose of tbe foroig o lives sod property in tbe oity osn be main tained only through the assumption of ths command of tbe foreign naval forees by ooe competent offieer ; too many eaptaioa may mean defeat ; io view of this possibility, tbe assumption of tbe command of tbe American forces ashore by Csptaio McCalla may be sig oifiosut. It is an uousual oouree for a oaptain of a ship himself to tske oom maod of a landing party, as has been dooe by Caytaio MeCaila His raok would correspond with that of a oclo oal of marines, aod it may be that be woold himself be the senior offioer at Tieo Tsin sod thus be obliged to as* some oomoaod of ths European naval parties landed tbars.

Aguinaldo Not Dead and His People Still True to Tbelr Country and Fia? Manila, June 6 ?A dispatch from Candon, dated June 3, says, Major P. C. March's men of the 33d rcgi meut returned to Candon that day by steamer from Parri A majority of the men are ready for the hospital They arc thin and weak, having trav eled 250 miles in the mountains, dur ing which they suffered greatU from hunger. Of the fifty horses which slarted with the battalion thirteen survived. The remainder died on tbe march or fell into canyons The battalion practicaliy collapsed at Piat thirty miles from Msguegaro, as the result of fevers aod exhaustion. Eighty-seven of the men were con veyed from Piatt to Maguegaro in bull carts snd those falling on the way were carried in litters by the Ingrottis with the column The offi cers accompanying Major March were. Gapts. Henry L Jenkinson snd Edward Davis ; Lieuts Carroll Power and Frank L Case, aod Dr. J 0. Greenwalt, assistant surgeon. They say it is all guesswork as to whether Aguinaldo was shot Bo fore the Americans struck Sagat the insurgent chief divided his forces into parties of ten. following differ? ent trails. Tbe officer shot was per baps Aguinaldo's secretary or adju tsnt Tbe report among the natives of tbe region is that Aguinaldo was wounded in the shoulder. The papers showed that nearly all tbe presidents installed by the Amer? icans in Gen. Young's territory are treacherous, and have been making regular reports to Aguinaldo for the disposition and movement of the American troops, and they have been collecting and forwarding taxes The captured papers also prove the dis loyalty of the native telegraph ope rators, wbom the Americana retained on the Cayagan Valley line. When Tirooa surrendered the Filipino forces in that sectioo these operators pro fessed loyalty and took the oath of allegiance. But it is now shown that they bad been sending Aguinaldo copiee of important telegrams ex changed between the American offi? cials Letters were also found relating to large contributions forwarded to Aguinaldo from Spanish and other foreign business men CUBAN OIL cures Cuts, Burns, Bruises, Rheuma? tism and Sores.
