UNITY TO BE SEVERED. Said That Germany, Austria and Italy Will Bfttk Russia. Learned From Good Hourco That They Will Remain at rcklu When lb Bui lau Withdraw Caulou Oltluiali Or dered to Bond All Fuud North For War Expence. LONDON. Sept. 4. Thelatest relia ble Pekln news is now i-rlv a fort night old. An undated dispatch has boon received at Vlennu reporting that the allied troops marched through thu Imperial palace Aug. 28, but It was known that this dute had been fixed by the allied commanders for. a formal promenade. There Is no other news of any kind. The Hung Kong correspondent of The Dally Mull suys that the Canton olli clals have been ordered to transmit all possible revenue to the north for war expenses, and that all pay of official! from the viceroy downwards has been stopped during hostilities. The Vienna correspondent of The Standard telegraphs tht he learns from a good source that the Germans, Aus trian and Itulluns will remain in Pe kln after the Russians withdraw. Shunghul and Hong'Kong dispatches express the utmost astonishment at the idea of evacuating Tekin. The Dally News suggests editorially that Russia may have made secret terms with China behind the backs ol the powers. The Standard expresses gratification at the explanation that the United States government does not approve Huuslu's proceedings. The Dally Express publishes an In terview with a New York Chinaman, Liu Chuuh, how staying in London, who admits Li Hung Chang's "dupli city and rooted antagonism to Western Ideas," but thinks that the allies have no choice but to negotiate with him o to retire from Chin altogether. M. De Dlowltz, the Paris correspon dent of The Times asserts that the or igin of Russia's decision to evacuate I'ekin was her desire to frustrate the schemes of Kmperor William and to correct thu Impression produced by the kaiser's speech in attributing to Em peror Nicholas the Inltlutlve In the ap pointment of Field Marshal Count Von Waldermx' to the command of the Inter national troo;s. PEKIN'S STORY TOLD. Celebration Over tne Ileacue of the lloleKed. PEKIN, Aug. 11, by post, via Tien Tain A medal will be struck commem orating the siege of Pekln. It will bear the legend "Men, nut walls, make a city." In the grounds of the British legation, where a handful of men withstood tht millions of the Chinese capital for 56 days, a fhetnorable celebration Is in progress tonight In vindication of that principle. Missionaries, assembled about Bell lower, are singing the Doxology. Rockets are blazing. Soldiers and civ ilians of all nationalities are fraterniz ing. The women are applauding the sound of the cannon that are smashing the yellow roofs of the forbidden city. The tired Sikhs ore planting their ten is on the lawn; and the American and Russian contingents are lighting camp fires along the stretch of turf ex tending beyond the Tartar wall. Through the ruins of the foreign set tlement un eager, cosmopolitan crowd Is Jostling Indians, Cossacks, legation ladies, diplomats, Americans from the Philippines and French disciplinarians, from Saigon, who kept discreetly to the rear while the fighting was In pro gress, but came conspicuously to the front -when loptlng began. Only Japa nese who hsve earned the first plooe, are absent. Resident foreigners welcome the lux ury of walking about with Immunity from bullets. The newcomers are anx ious to Inspect the evidences of a his toric defense. These barricades are, af ter all, the most wonderful sight In Pe kln. The barriers hedging the British legation are a market of stone and brick wnlls and earthworks. Sand bugs shield over space. The tops of the walls have niches for the rlllemen and the buildings, at their porticos and windows, have armor boxes, bags stuffed with dirt and pillows too. Back of the United States legation is a work named '.'Fort Meyers," which the marines held, completely screening both sides of the walls, with steps lead ing to it. There is a toopholed bar rier across the wall which faces a sim ilar Chinese work a few yards away. Another wa'l bars Legation street In front of the German legation; and con fronting the enemy's barricades 'Within those limits are yet more walls, enab ling the foreigners to contract the area of defense if pressed. The tops of the American and Brit ish buildings were badly torn by the t'hinese shells. The rest of the foreign settlement was almost demolished. Two thousand eight hundred shells fell there during the first three weeks of the bombardment, 400 In one day. Buckets full of bullets were gathered In the grounds. Four hundred and fourteen people lived in the compound through the greater part of' the siege. Three hun dred und four marines assisted by 85 volunteers, commanded by the English captain, Poole, defended the place, lileven civilians were killed and 19 wounded. Fifty-four marines and sailors were killed und 112 wounded. The Americans lost seven killed and 11 wounded. Mr. Gilbert Reid who was wounded in the feet was the only Amer ican civilian injured. Two foreign ladies were wounded. The reeep'tlon which the survivors gave the army was worth the hardships the troops had undergone. The entrance was nnt spectacular. Sir Alfred Oaseleo with his staff and a com pany of Sikhs waded up n bed of sew age in the canal under the tartar wall The besieged removed the barricades and when the gates swung Inward and the British colors appeared there arose a great continuous cheer on both sides. Generals, soldiers and correspondents scrambled up the banks throuch the filth, elbowing to be firet. Men end wo men surrounded the rescuers and shook the hands of tho Sikhs, patting them un the back. Everybody was hustled tx- cltedly along Into the legation ground where the colors were planted. The sol diers surrounded the well Which had been the salvation of the besieged. The mlnlstors and officers demanded the latest news on both eldes. An 'hour afterward General Chaffee riding at the head of the Fourteenth United States Infantry marched to th tartar wall. PESSIMISTIC BELIEF. European Treu Consider Concert of Na tions Ruptured. LONDON, Sept. 8. The publication of the text of the Russian proposals has Intensified rather than diminished the suspicions entertained by England of Russia's proceedings. The rupture of tho European concert is considered an accomplished fact. Opinions differ, however, as to the way In which the powers will now group themselves. Some papers think that Great Britain. Japan and the triple alliance will stand together In refusing to leave Pekln. The Dally Telegraph, which expressel regret that President McKlnley "has committed the United States to follow tho Russian lead," considers, however, that Japan, "whose consistent policy since the war of 18D4 has been to con ciliate und effect a rapprochement with China" will throw In her lot with Russia and will be reluctantly followed by France, who does not dare to rlsh a divergence with Russia.

Kroger ami Steyn Have Oone to llnrber ton Hrltl.h I'imIiIiiit Forward. PRETORIA. Sept. 3. Mr. Kruger and Mr. Steyn have gone to Barber ton. It Is believed that they are pre paring for flight. The general opinion Is that the war Is now very near the end; but, should the Boers construct strongholds in the bush, on the veldt, or elsewhere, and begin a system of raids, the Brltsh would require further large supplies of horses. General Buller moved 14 miles north westward along the Lydenberg road and crossed Crocodile river to Iludfon teln. He found the Boers concentrating In the Crocodile mountains. WILL NOT STRIKE.

EXCURSIONISTS KILLED Sixteen Meet Death la Rail road Collisions. Excursion Train Crashed Into Milk Train at Hatfield, I'a Canting Fright ful Wrack Uuggy Containing Foui Lover Struck Near Syracuse and Thret of the Occupants Killed. PHILADELPHIA. Sept S. Thlrteer persons killed and over 40 others in jured Is the appalling record of a real end collision between an excursion train and a milk train on the Bethle hem branch of the Philadelphia an! Reading railway yesterday morning al Hatfield, Pa., 27 miles nurth of this city The wrecked train consisted of 10 da) coaches, and was the first section of e large excursion made up of people fronr Bethlehem, Allentown and surroundlnj towns to Atlantic City. This section carried only thoso persons who lived In Bethlehem and Allentown and left the Union depot In Bethlehem at 6:05 a. m. exactly 35 minutes behind the milk train. The latter train consisted of tw milk cars and two passenger coaches and had stopped at every station on the road from Bethlehem en route to Philadelphia. Care C ruilied Like E Shell. At 6:54 the milk train drew up at the milk platform at Hatfield and in les than two minutes the special excursion train, running at the rate of 35 mllet an hour crashed Into the rear of the milk train. The locomotive plowed through the two passenger conches and crushed them as If they were egg shells The excursion train was a picture ol Indescribable horror. The locomotive was a mass of bent and broken Iron and firmly held the bodies of its engineei and firemnn beneath Its great weight Behind the engine, six of the 10 cars were also a ma?s of wreckage. The flrsl car was broken In twain, and the othet five cirs were thrown on their sides, completely demolished. Nine persons were killed In the first two cars and the others In those coaches were badly malned. As soon as the crash came a terrible cry rose from smashed cars, and those who had not been injured quickly crawled or Jumped from the cars and went to the assistance of the Injured. M'iny were pinned down by wreckage and had to be freed bv the liberal use of axes. With three four exceptions the dead were killed instantly, the others dying on their way to the hospital. FIXING THE BLAME. Evident That IUI field Wreck Was Re sult of Fktmeotie's lllnnder. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sep. 4. It seems to be the generally accepted con clusion that the appallng wreck Sun day on the Philadelphia and Reading railway at Hatfield, 27 miles from this city which resulted in the loss of thir teen lives and more or less serious In juries to 53 persons was due to negll gence or direct disregard of Blgnals. While the Reading company will not be prepared to make any formal state ment until later, the principal line of investigation Is being drawn about W. S. Groves, train dispatcher at Philadel phia; B. Beldlor, operator at Souderton, 2 1-2 miles from Hatfield, and John Davis, engineer of the colliding excur sion train, who Is dying in a hospital at Bethlehem. According to James Benner, flag man at Souderton station, the milk train passed that station on time and following the rule of the company which requires any train coming after another within five minutes to be stop ped, he placed a red Hag between the tracks. In three minutes the excursion came thundering along making 40 miles an hour. Davis made no effort to atop and waved Benner to one side. The lat ter had only time to secure his flag and spring out of danger as the train swept by. Looking upward he saw that Beldler had a clear signal set. Beldler when questioned said he had received no orders to stop the train. Graves is supposed to have sent such orders. Be sides, according to General Superin tendent Sweigard, all agents must stop a train, orders or no orders, if there be five minutes time or less between them. More llenlhs Expected to Result. PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 4. Reports from Bethlehem and Allentown are to the effect that none of those Injured In the terrible collision at Hatfield, Pa., on the Philadelphia and Reading rail way have died, although several are not expected to live.
