One Snjra Women Were Outraged and Children Tortnred by Felting Moh—Emperor Again Said to Have Killed Himself. London, July o.—The story that all for> elgners in Peking were murdered on June 30 or July 1 appears to be circulating simultaneously at Chefu, Shanghai and Tien tsin. Yet as it is not confirmed by official dispatches and is not traceable to the southern viceroys, who are still in certain communication with Peking, there is a basis for the hope that it is untrue. Cautious observers at Shanghai recog nize that even though these reports are rejected events in Peking must be gal loping to a tragic end. The Shanghai correspondent of The Daily Telegraph wires under date of July 4: "Yuan Shikal, governor of Shnngtung telegraphs the French consul here thai Prince Tuan is preparing an edict or dering the extermination of all foreign ers. This is probably intended to pre pare the public for the worst news. "Chinese cumulative reports, which arc generally believed here, declare that all the foreigners lu Peking huve been mas sacred. "The safety of all foreigners in north China depends upon Jupuu's prompt ac tion." The correspondent of The Daily Mail at Shanghai, telegraphing under date of July 5, 12:10 p. m., says he believes thai when official information comes regard ing Pekiug it may include news of the outraging of Knglish women and the torture of children. It may almost be taken for granted, he assertN, that all the foreigners in Pekiug have been wiped out. These are the whisperings of star tling rumors iu the native quarters, am) it must not be forgotten that the tele grnirii lines over which alone the newt can come are solely in the bands of the Chinese. The native rumors are Jikcly tc have their source on a solid basis, and the native officials are believed to he pre paring the way for the reception of new? of the greatest crime of the century. Taoti Yu admitted to the correspondent that the case of the Europeans in Peking is utterly hopeless iu his opinion. He be lievps that if they have not yet been mas sacred it Is only a matter of hours be fore they will he. A letter brought by courier from Pe king received in Shanghai on July 4 soys the Boxers are gathering huge force* about Peking, re-enforcements are arm ing from all directions. This is taken tc indicate a concert of action among the nobles, who are believed to have thrown In their lot with the Boxers. The em peror and the empress dowager, the lettei says, are completely under the thumb of Prince Tuan and Yang-lvi. Two Manehus who have arrived nl Shanghai certify to the truth of the state ment that Prince Tuan visited the pnlnct and offered the emperor aud the down get empress the alternative of poison or the sword. The emperor, they say, took poi son and died within an hour. The down gcr empress also chose poison, but crnfti ly swallowed only a portion of whut wni offered her and survived. On the snin day the Chinese customs bureau was de stroyed, Sir Hobert Hart, the Inspcctot of customs, and his staff escaping to the legations. Great alarm is now felt for the allied forces iu Tien-tsin. A dispatch to Berlin says their retreat to Tuku has been cut off and that they are surrounded, the Chi nese artillery dominating the foreign con cessions. There arc 12.000 foreign troops at Tien twin. The Chinese operating against them now probably number at least 100,(100. Brooklyn nt SnKfisnkl. Washington, July (I.—News of the ar rival of the armored cruiser Brooklyn al Nagasaki. Japan, with Admiral ltemc> of the Asiatic squadron in command, w> received by the secretary of the navy lasf night. The Brooklyn is on her way tc Taku, to which place she was ordered on the 24th of June, after the admin Istrntior received n dispatch from Admiral Kempfl telling of the ambuscade near Tien-tsin in which a number of men of Major Wal ler's command were killed and wounded. The Boer War. London, July o.—The cordon around Generul Do Wet appears still to be wide nt least he has not yet been cornered Dispatches from the front, except official ones, deal with trifles or vague probuhili ties. The Daily Telegraph's Ixcurencc Marques correspondent attempted on Ju ly 4 to interview President Kruger nl Wntervalonder. Herr Kruger was there hut he deputed State Secretary Roitz tc talk. The secretary said: "We do not need to discuss pence. President Krugei wishes, through me, to repent what lu has said over and over again. The South African Republic will fight for indepen donee as long as 500 burghers remain alive, and even then will continue to fight Such is our decision." Dr. t'onnn Doyle writing to the British Medical Journal says he thinks that there were 10,000 tc 12,000 cases of enteric fever at one time Six hundred patients died nt Bloetufob tein in one month. Dr. Dnylo declare? ! that the physicians did nil they could. "V - A Sen of Blnmlna OH.
