London, Sept. 29.—Apparently Ger
many's retreat from an untenable po
sition has been virtually accomplished.
The Paris correspondent of The Morn- !
ing Post says:
"An agreement on the Chinese pro- I
gram has been arranged between
France. Germany and Russia. It will i
be submitted to the other powers with
in a few days. The action recom- j
mended will be milder than German's
original proposal, and it is expected
that all the powers will accept the
program."
The Cologne Gazette, in another
semi-official statement, apparently in- ,
tended for consumption in the United i
States and England, points out the I
serious position resulting from Prince
Tuan's ascendency, "the continued 1
massacre of missionaries and convicts ;
and other indications that the anti- '
foreign movement is directed from an
influential center." It thinks that the
situation thus created "must appear
intolerable, even to those powers fa
voring a policy of indulgence and for
bearance."
The Tien Tsin correspondent of The
Standard says:"l learn that Li Hung j
Chang has declared that Vice Admiral j
Alexieff has gone to Port Arthur to j
avoid meeting Count Von VValdersee, j
who was to hold a conference with him I
and with Vice Admiral Seymour and
Sir Alfred Gaselee."
The following dispatch, dated Sept.
27, has been received from Shanghai:
"It is reported that Gen. Mei Kung
Yi (?) has expelled the Boxers from
Shan Tung and Is now following them
into the province of Chi Li.
"Some excitement has been caused
by a rumor that Chinese steamers,
flying the British flag, are conveying
munitions of war from the Shanghai
arsenal northward.
"It is reported that Russia has of
fered to advance money to China to
repay the British loan."
A Tien Tsin dispatch of Sept. 25
says:
Li Hung Chang told Gen. Chaffee to
day that his chief desire was to ef
fect a cessation of hostilities, and he
promised that the Chinese would not
again take the initiative in fighting.
He expressed confidence in the fair
ness of the United States and said he
hoped the American government would
act as a mediator, using its influence
to hasten the assembling of the proper
body to settle the whole question. At
the suggestion of Gen. Chaffee he is
hastening his preparations to leave for
Pekin.
A messenger who arrived at Tien
Tsin Sept. 25 brings news of a mas
sacre of 13 Swedish missionaries in the
northern part of the province of Shan
Si.
A Shanghai dispatch of Sept. 28 says:
According to private advices received
here from Nankin the southern vice
roys expect Great Britain and Ger
many to declare war on China, as
there is no likelihood of China sur
rendering the authors of the anti
foreign uprising for punishment.
Should such an attack be made the
Yangtse viceroys must make a show
against the countries' enemies, though
well aware that the situation is hope
less and though anxious not to sacri
fice life unnecessarily. Meanwhile
forces and provisions are being sent
to Tai Yuan Fu, capital of the prov
ince of Shan Si. The position of the
viceroys is grave.
OCR GOVERNMKWT WAITING.
Expect Mo Important Chinese De
velopment* Within Two Week*.
Washington, Sept. 29. —The state de
partment has not been advised offici
ally of any of the events of more or
less importance which are said to have
occurred in China, according to vari
ous European reports, within the past
24 hours. If Tuan has been degraded,
and if Russia contemplaces a blockade
of the Chinese naval ports, the depart
ment does not know the facts. It has
let it be known to the Chinese gov
ernment that Tuan's promotion would
he unwelcome to this government, but
it has not yet been informed of the
results of that representation. Re
specting the statement that Ching has
been discovered to be a contributor to
the Boxer cause, it is said that all the
information that the department has
been able to secure touching Ching'a
personality went to show his unvary
ing friendliness for the foreigners, and
upon that record he was accepted aB a
competent envoy.
The officials declined to say whether
or not the instructions to Minister
Conger have gone forward yet, but it
is intimated that the minister is fully
advised by this time as to the state de
partment's policy. It Is said, how#ver,
that no developments in the Chinese
situation of importance are expected
within the next two weeks at least.

Attack* on American*.
Manila, Oct. I.—The Filipinos in the
▼lcinity of Manila have been more
quiet of late, although last Wednes
day night there were brisk attacks at
Las Pinas and Paranaque, south of
Manila, as well as outpost firing at
Imus, Bacoor and Muntin Lupa. The
American officers are satisfied that the
alleged amigos living in and around
the towns in question participated in
these attacks. Official reports have
been received of insurgent activity in
Zambalos province and in Batangas
province. Two skirmishes occurred
during the week on the Bicol river, in
the province of South Camarines. It
is estimated that the insurgents lost
90 killed in the various districts. Two |
civilians, John McMahon and Ralph

on a business trip for Vigan and
Bangued, in northern Luzon, have not
j been heard from for three weeks. It is

Vla<l Erldontlr Intended to "Work"
Stricken Caulvewtoii.
New York, Oct. 1. —Chief Hazen, of
the secret service stationed in this city,
was yesterday placed in possession of
two molds for silver dollars which
were discovered in a somewhat re
markable manner. While sorting re
lief supplies on the dock at Galveston
a nurse came across a package, which
was taken to a relief hospital. Here
it was opened and the molds discover
ed. There was also the half of a SSO
bill pasted on a slip of paper. Hidden
in the package was a note, which read:
"Be sure and see that gets plenty
of drugs. If you don't she won't be
able to do anything." The package
was sent from this city to Galveston
by steamer. The counterfeiters evi
dently intended to take advantage of
the excitement in Galveston and run
off a large quantity of bogus silver
dollars to circulate in the flood of
money following the relief of the dis
tress.

suicide by severing the arteries on his
arm with a penknife Saturday evening
in a bedroom of a Harrisburg restau

enemies. He left this message, which
was written in a clear hand, on the
wall of the room: "Facing my God,
I die innocent. The future will acquit
me."

New York, Oct. 1. —Rev. Dr. Gilbert
H. Gregory passed away yesterday in
the presence of his congregation at
the morning service in St. Stephen's
M. E. church, Marble Hill, at the upper
end of Manhattan Island. He was 63
years old.
Physicians had urged Dr. Gregory to
' retire from active church work, as he
; had long been a sufferer from heart
| trouble. They told him that he might
J live for years if he would cease labor,
but that if he continued to work he
was liable to be stricken at any mo
ment. As late as Saturday Dr. Dar
lington. of King's Bridge, who was at
tending Dr. Gregory, warned him
against preaching yesterday. The
clergyman said to his physician: "I
prefer to meet death in that way to re
tiring and shirking my duty in order
to live longer."
He had not preached in St. Stephen's
for three Sundays on account of heart
attacks, but when word was passed
around that he would resume his du
ties yesterday the church was filled.
The service had progressed to the
singing of a hymn which precedes the
sermon. Dr. Gregory arose and read
three verses of the hymn, beginning
j "Love divine, all love excelling."
While the music of the anthem filled
the church Dr. Gregory was noticed to
seat himself and then fall limp over
one of the arms of the chair.
Members of the congregation went to
his assistance and two physicians who
happened to be passing the church
were called in. They saw at once that
the minister was beyond human aid,
and in a few minutes from the time
that he was stricken Dr. Gregory was
dead.

evening and spent several hours with
the secretary. Secretary Hay express
ed his satisfaction with the steps taken
by this government and gave a final
and emphatic denial to the allegations

nothing to do with Hensler's arrest,
and believe him to be innocent of any
intentional wrong doing.

New York. Sept. 29. —A large number
of warrants were issued yesterday to
officers of the health department for
the arrest of persons charged with vio
lating the smoke ordinance. The cases
were continued until next week. In
all more than 50 were served. Presi
dent Murphy, of the health department,
said:
"This smoke nuisance must be stop
ped, and stopped right at this instant.
Every one of these firms have been
under surveillance and has burned soft
coal. They were warned to desist, but
they paid no attention to our notice.
More than a dozen presidents, superin
tendents and others from large coal
burning firms called on me today and
asked me to let up 011 this smoke nui
sance for a while. I told them that I
would not do it; that there is not suf
ficient justification for it. The use of
soft coal would do millions of dollars
damage in this city. Because we have
used only hard coal and have been
practically free from smoke millions
have been invested In white marble

Soft coal smoke would completely de

Scranton, Pa., Sept. 29. —At the con
tinuation of the hearing in the city
hall bribery charges before Alderman
Fuller last night ex-Mayor James G. '
Bailey caused the crowd of onlookers
to fairly stand aghast by unhesitating
ly admitting that he had perjured him
self at his previous examination, and
that it was true, as Select Councilman
W. M. Finn had testified, that he
(Bailey) had not only been proffered,
! but actually accepted a bribe of SI,OOO
j to sign the ordinance making a con
j tract with the Barber Asphalt Paving
company for repairing the paved
streets for ten years at $17,520 a year.
He further admitted that he was
offered another SI,OOO to refrain from
| acceding to a widespread public de-
I mand to veto the item in the annual
' appropriation ordinance, providing the
?17,520 to meet the first year's ex
pense under the repair ordinance, i
which veto would make the first or
dinance inoperative. He refused this, ,
and in explaining how he came tore- |
fuse it said that he was holding out
for SI,OOO while the company's agent
was only willing to pay SSOO, and that
j when the agent was willing to pay
j SI,OOO the item had been vetoed. Se
! lect Councilman Finn, he said, nego-
I tiated the deals, and the money was
| presented by Carl H. McKinney, the
asphalt company's lobyist.
On cross examination the ex-mayor
denied that he was prompted to veto
the appropriation item by a promise
from the brick paving people to take
care of a $2,700 indebtedness to the
city which he had contracted by retain
ing fines collected in police court,
j The first incident took place in the
j early spring of 1899, and the quibbling
| over the price for withholding his
| veto from the appropriation item oc
curred on Sunday, April 5, 1899, and
j the morning of the following day,
j some few hours before his term ex
pired.
It is said that in consideration of
j the ex-mayor's clean breast of his mis
deeds he is to escape prosecution, but
I the officers of the Municipal Reform
League, who are conducting the cru
; sade, refuse to affirm this.

Washington, Sept. 29. —Gen. Mac-
Arthur cables the war department
from Manila that on Sept. 11 Capt.
Deveraux Shields, with 51 men of Com
pany F, Twenty-ninth volunteer in
fantry, left Santa Cruz for Torrijos.
Nothing has been heard from him
since, and it is supposed that the en
tire party, including Capt. Shields, has
been captured, witl} many killed and
wounded. Gen. Mac Arthur's dispatch
says further:
"The Yorktown and two gunboats,
Col. George S. Anderson, of the Thirty
eighth infantry, and two companies of
that regiment were sent to Marinduque
immediately. Anderson confirms the
first report as to the capture, but was
unable, 27, to give details as to
the present whereabouts of Shields
and party, or the names of the killed
and wounded. This inforwation will
probably be available soon. Ander
son has orders to commence opera
tions immediately and move relentless
ly until Shields and his party are res
cued. All troops expected soon. Lo
gan will be sent to Marinduque if
necessary to clear up the situation."
Delaware He|»nl>llcniis Aenin I'nited
Wilmington. Del..Sept. 29. —Harmony
on the Republican state ticket in Dela
ware was assured yesterday afternoon
when the Union Republican state com
mittee accepted the compromise ticket
selected by the Republican (anti-Ad
dicks) state committee two weeks ago.
The Union Republicans had refused to
endorse Dr. Lewis H. Ball for congress
on the ground of factionalism, although
they had agreed to permit the anti-Ad
dicks Republicans to name the con
gressman should John Hunn, the Union
Republican choice, be accepted as the
compromise candidate for governor. As
a result of a conference with Chairman
Hanna the Union Republicans recon
sidered their former action and the en
tire compromise ticket was endorsed.

III! rued to Dentil In IIIN Home.
Woodstown, N. J., Sept. 29. —Charles
Grass, aged 70 years, was burned to
a crisp during a fire which consumed
his home here yesterday morning. At
first there were suspicions of foul play,
as the old man was known to have
$350 in gold about the house, and this
could not be found. Finally a thor
ough search disclosed the gold hidden
away in an old box. The latest theory
is that the old gentleman arose during
the night for some purpose and carried
a lamp to the rear shed. It is supposed
that he fell or was overcome by a
stroke of paralysis.

EVACUATION OF CHINA, j

He i'niil to >liir«lcre«l (ifrman nnd
•Inpanene I> i plo mil t »—Mr. Hockliill
l.eavcM I'ekin Under Cavalry Gieort j
London, Oct. 1. —Beyond a number i
of imperial edicts, which throw into j
still worse confusion the complicated j
Chit • • situation, there is little in to
day's news to arrest attention. From i
Shanghai comes an unconfirmed report
that the allies have seived Shan Hal j
Kwan.
All the news with regard to the
edicts emanate from Shanghai. Ac- '
cording to these advices, in addition
to the edicts ordering Grand Council- I
lor Kun Kang to offer obligations be
fore the coffin of Baron Von Kettler
and the edict directing that Li Hung
Chang's entire plan lie followed in re
gard to the punishment of the princes
and high ministers of state responsible
for the anti-foreign outrages, and the
decree ordering that funeral honors
be paid in Pekin and Tokio to the re
mains of Sugiyama Aklrira, the mur
dered chancellor of the Japanese le
gation, Emperor Kwang Su has ad
dressed further letters to the czar and
the mikado renewing his request for
their aid in the peace negotiations.
A dispatch from Pekin dated Sept.
25 intimates that the withdrawal of
the army has already begun. Says this
dispatch:
"At the conference of generals to
day the Russian commander. Gen.
Linovich, announced the immediate
withdrawal from Pekin of the bulk of
the Russian troops and the legation.
He will leave on Sept. 30 and the le
gation will follow immediately. There
will remain a mixed force of about
2,000 to represent Russia. Gen. Lino
vich asserted that the dispatch from
St. Petersburg transmitting the order
to withdraw contained a statement
that all the powers were adopting the
same policy. The other generals re
plied that they had received no orders
of that nature."
A St. Petersburg dispatch of Sun
day, dated I'ekin, Sept. 27, says the
following has been received from M.
De Giers, Russian minister to China:
"In accordance with orders from the
highest quarters I am leaving for Tien
Tsin with the whole legation."
A Tien Tsin dispatch of Sept. 30
says: " Orders from Washington di
recting the withdrawal of the bulk of
the American troops were received this
afternoon and preparations to comply
were begun immediately. Gen. Chaf
fee is here directing the movement,
which will commence at the earliest
possible moment.
"It is understood that the plan con
templates leaving a regiment of in
fantry, a squadron of cavalry and a
battery of artillery in Pekin to protect
American interests and that the re
mainder of the troops will proceed to
Manila.
"The allied commanders had decided
to dispatch a combined land and naval
expedition to Shan Hai Kwan on the
gulf of Liao Tung, leaving Taku Oct.
3, the total land force being 4,200. The
American detail had not yet been
made, nor had a decision been reached
as to the naval force. Now that the
order to withdraw has been received
from Washington it is possible that
the plans for the expedition will have
to be modified, so far as American
participation is concerned. Gen. Chaf
fee, however, is proceeding on the op
posite assumption, and has ordered the
I ifth marine battalion to prepare to
go.
"The United States armored cruiser
Brooklyn will probably be the only
American warship in the expedition.
The troops will go by water and be
landed south of Shan Hai Kwan. They
will co-operate with a large Russian
contingent already on the way.
"The news of the American with
drawal created a sensation among the
representatives of the other powers
here."
Another Pekin dispatch says: Mr.
William Woodville Rock hill, special
commissioner of the United States, left
Pekin. with a cavalry escort, today for
Tien Tsin. He will visit Nankin and
the Yang Tse valley, examine affairs
there and advise the viceroys to mem
oralize the throne, urging the return
of the court to Pekin.

DIAMOND DIGEST
TABLETS
Do Destroy Dyspepsia and restore the
bowels and liver to perfectly natural action
promptly, or money refunded by any drug
gist.
Gentlemen:— l have been taking your
DIAMOND DIGEST TABLETS for two months
past and am practically a well man for the
first time in 10 yearn. Everything I ate dis
tressed me, more or less, and I was all run
down from lark of proper nourishment. I
am eating everything that comes my way
now, without the slightest inconvenience.
Two tablets after a hearty meal and one,
after a light meal seem to thoroughly di
gest everything, and I am daily gaining
flrtth. My daughter commenced taking
them about two weeks ago for constipation,
and while they do not act as quickly as
some powerful cathartic, they are positive,
and much more satisfactory, because they
do not gripe or distress her in any way,
and the relief seems to be of a permanent
nature. All other medicines have left her
In worse condition after taking than before.
D. V. BERGEN, 27 Boyd Ave., Jersey City.
Dear Sirs: —I hare taken one box of your
DIAMOND DIGEST TABLETS and they are
the only remedy I have ever found that
stops the HEARTBURN. I enclose 50c. for
another box. MRS. HENRY CUMMINOS,

The Pennsylvania railroad company
will not allow a man in its employ to
wilfully refrain from paying bin just
debts. As a consequence all the em
ployees of the I'ennsv are pretty honest
fellows. Those who are rot honest l>v
nature are made so through obligation
or they must sacrifice their jobs. And
on the I'en nay a job is thought to be
valuable enough to induce u man Dot to
ruu into debt.
