CURRENT COMMENT. Note* Political mill Otlicrwine on Matter* of Public Intercut. By Andrew J. Palm. The Philadelphia Times, which does not pretend to be friendly to Bryan, admits that he will poll at least one third more votes in Philadelphia in 1900 than he did in '96. This is con siderable of an admission for a gold standard, Imperialistic organ. If the flag must never be hauled down when once raised, as our jingo statesmen insist, Old Glory finds itself in a peculiar predicament. It now floats over a fourth of Tien Tsin. and yet Emperor Hanna declares that he does not intend to annex China by "benevolent" assimilation or other wise. Mark Hanna says that the trusts have the best men of the country at their head and he believes in their or ganization. Of course where a man's treasure is there his heart is also, and Mark expects the trusts to put up the treasure on which he bases his hope of carrying the country for a second term of imperialism. The Republican national platform condemns all improper trusts; but when demanding tribute for the cam paign Marcus Aurelius Hanna will bo able to convince them that there are no bad trusts, and that they do not come under the ban of Mr. Hanna's platform. Nothing is improper in Re publican eyes that contributes to Re publican success. Teddy Roosevelt's sympathy with Taylor, the Kentucky outlaw, received a severe stab when the Kentucky Re publicans failed to nominate Mr. Tay lor again as their candidate for gov ernor. Kentucky Republicans wouldn't hesitate to nominate a man simply be cause he is charged with murder, but the trouble was they couldn't locate Taylor long enough to get him nomi nated. The Boers are mostly Presbyterians, and a very faithful and zealous lot of worshipers. We hear a great cry from the pulpit regarding the few Presby terian missionaries that have been kill ed recently in China, and that is only natural; but strange to say there is scarcely a minister to utter his protest against the wholesale slaughter of Presbyterians by the British in the Transvaal. Is it any worse to he done to death by a British spear in the hands of a heathen Chinaman than to have the act performed by an alleged civilized Englishman? We send missionaries to all the world to teach a religion which many of the nations will not receive and which we ourselves do not practice. The Phila delphia North American a few days ago declared that there Is not one place in Philadelphia where a homeless, re fined woman without money can find shelter. The religion that raises mil lions of dollars to send to foreign shores for the conversion of those who never can be rightly converted and ig nores Ignorance, suffering and desti tution at its own doors cannot appeal strongly to the reasoning portion of mankind. Does any reasonable man wonder that here Is trouble in China? The greater wonder is that it did not occur sooner. With Russia, England, Ger many and France demanding a slice of Chinese territory, and the United States' expansion fingers declaring for expansion and open doors all over the world, is it strange that the ignorant and superstitious hordesof China should conclude that the sooner the foreign devils are driven out the better it will be for China? We condemn In the heathen the very things we would have done a great deal sooner under similar circumstances. The platform that denounces trusts and at the same time praises the agency that creates them is an example of gall ami inconsistency not equalled outside the political literature conceived by Mark Hanna. The Philadelphia plat form, In a cowardly, misleading way, attempts to create the impression that the Republican party of Hanna, Me- Kinley, Quay and Tom Piatt is opposed to trusts. At.' the same time these worthies could not find words strong enough to sound the praises of the Dlngley bill, under whose benign in fluence over 650 trusts have been or ganized. with a capitalization of $5,000,000,000. This is more than eight times all the gold money of the coun try and more than two and a half times all the money of the United States. The Dingley bill has proved a great success for the millionaire pro ducers like Carnegie, Hanna, Rocke feller and Havemyer. Smoke and chew Kendall, Clock & Co.'s XXXX union-made.

Our (■uverniiient ly I.lHteu lim to 1.1 Ilium ChuiiK'N Appeal HUH Solv*J tli* Immediate <iuention In Cliinu A New MVNNHKC From Conner. Washington, Aug. 17. —In nil proba bility the ministers are now in the hands of the allies. If they have not left Pe king by this time, it is due to necessary delay in preparing for the moving of so large a body of people, including the 3,000 native Christians whom Minister Conger has declared he will not abandon. The officials of the government are con vinced of this. It is true that negotia tions are still nominally proceeding be tween the American ami Chinese govern ments and that a memorandum was sent through Minister Wu to Li Hung Chang in reply to one received from Li, but the highest officers of the administration ad mitted yesterday that this communica tion will probublr not reach Li Ilung Chang or the Chinese government until after the ministers are in the hands of the allies. The allies reached Peking yesterday be yond doubt. The first intimation of this was received in a dispatch from Ad miral Homey, saying that there were re ports that the arrival at Peking was set for the 15th, but all doubt was dissi pated last evening when the Japanese minster arrived at the state department with an official conlirmatipn from his government. Whatever the allies have to do at Pe king, therefore, has already been done or at least begun. What they had to do was either to attack the city or to peace ably take the ministers out. Every step of the way has been fore seen by the secretary of war, who has been the practical head of the govern ment |in the last fortnight of the crisis and has been acting practically as secre tary of state and war. It has been bis desire and that of the president to force the Chinese govern ment into compliance with the American terms, so that the ministers could he taken out peaceably. Since last Satur day he has been in no doubt that his ef forts would be successful, but at about the same time he saw that while the Chi nese government would certainly accede to his demands in the end tlie.v would not do so until the allies were almost at Peking, when it would be impossible to negotiate owing to the length of time it takes to get messages through. Mr. Itoot'N Fore*in lit. The slow rate at which tile Chinese yielded, fighting diplomatically every step of the way, proved this to him. His cal culations were that they would yield at last with a rush, but too late. When they did, it would he impossible to get instructions through to Chaffee in time to prevent him from making an attack in ignorance of the negotiations. Foreseeing this. Secretary Root took steps to avert its evil consequences. He calculated that by the time the allies passed Tung-cliow and arrived near Pe king the Chinese government would he thoroughly panic stricken and would then propose the appointment of an envoy at Peking instead of Li Hung Chang. lie assumed that this envoy would lie au thorized to enter into negotiations with the allies and would propose to them that they send an escort into Peking or else that the ministers be sent out of Pe king to them. Accordingly, he instructed General Chaffee in advance what he was to do when these propositions were made. The general was to receive them as genuine and to consider himself authorized to ac cept them. Whether he was to send an escort into Peking or to receive the min isters outside the walls was left to his discretion. What Secretary Root has so clearly foreseen canie to pass. Li Hung Chang notified this government that he had memorialized the throne to appoint tin envi v in Peking, and there is not the slightest doubt that the frightened gov ernment has already followed his ad vice. He also informed the United States that this envoy was to propose the de livery of the ministers to an escort of allies. Undoubtedly the Peking envoy has already opened negotiations with Chaffee, who, forewarned by the secre tary of war, has accepted them or reject ed them as treacherous and opened fire on Peking. \oxt Move Unknown. What the American forces will do next is unknown. The statement that they will withdraw to Tien-tsin is unauthor izod. No instructions have been sent to General Chaffee about what he was to do after the delivery of the ministers, and n cabinet officer said that that had not yet been determined. The American government has devoted' all its energies and thought to only one thing—the delivery of the ministers—and that, thanks childly to its diplomacy and forethought, is believed to be now accom plished. Late last night the department of state made public the communications ex changed yesterday between the Chinese minister, Mr. Wu Ting Fang, and the acting secretary of state. The following memorandum was hand ed to Mr. A dee by Mr. Wu at 9 o'clock in the morning: "A cablegram from Earl Li Hung Chang, envoy plenipotentiary of China, dated Aug. 15 and received by Minister Wu at 7 p. in. on the same day. "The allied forces are approaching Tung-chow. I have memorialized the im perial government to depute envoy to ne gotiate an armistice with the several commanders on the spot. I will also shortly proceed to Peking. The powers, being fully aware of the embarrassing position their majesties the empress dow ager and the emperor are placed, are earnestly requested to telegraph instruc tions to their respective commanders aft er arriving at Tung-chow with their forces to stop their further advance to the capital so as not to cause alarm and fear to their majesties and calamities to the people, for such advance would shake the foundations of the Tu Chiug empire and wound the feelings of all her people, high and low. For a compliance with this appeal the millions of people of the em pire will be profoundly grateful to the powers. Please communicate this cable gram at once to the secretary of state." The following memorandum in reply WOK bunded to Mr. Wu in the afternoon: "ForesceliiK I hut there would be insuf ficient time after receiving a reply to our memorandum of Aug. 12 to get Instruc tions to the relief column before it had reached Peking we sent on the same day to the general commanding the American forces in China the following dispatch: " 'Secretary of war directs me to in form you that Li Hung Chang, appointed by the Chinese government to negotiate with powers, requests cessation of hostili ties. We have replied that we are ready to enter into agreement between powers and Chinese government for cessation of hostilities on condition that sufficient body of the forces composing the relief expedition shall be permitted to enter Peking unmolested and to escort foreign ministers and residents bade to Tien tsin, the movement being provided for and se cured by such arrangements and disposi tions of troops as shall be considered sat isfactory by generals commanding the forces composing relief expedition. Wc have communicated this to all the pow ers. Japanese government takes same position. We have not heard from other powers.' "And two days ago in view of the rapid progress of the relief expedition we sent the following to General Chaffee: General Chaffee's Orders. " 'ln anticipation of acceptance liy Chi nese government of condition in our re ply to them cabled you Aug. 12. If Chi nese authorities communicate willingness to deliver ministers and persons under their protection to relief column at Pe king, under arrangements which you con sider safe, you are authorized to make ami carry out arrangement in concert with other commanders without referring it here. From informal communications with representatives of other govern ments here we believe all to take sub stantially same position. Question wheth er you should insist upon entering Pe king and going to legations or will re ceive delivery at gate of inner Tartar city or at outer wall, taking risk of min isters passing through city with only Chi nese escort, you and the other generals determine. " 'We are advised by Minister Conger that the attacks by imperial troops upon the legations in Peking have not ceased. While these attacks continue we cannot stop the advance of our forces toward Peking. If such attacks cease, the above quoted instructions will be allowed to stand, and they would seem to provide for all the action required under the cir cumstances stated by Earl Li in bis dis patch.' " At the same time the authorities gave out the latest dispatch from Minister Conger, received yesterday through the Chinese minister, Mr. Wu. Mr. Wu re ceived it nt midnight from the taotai of Shanghai, by whom it had been receiv ed byway of Tsi-nan. Aug. 13. It is un dated, but Would seem to have left Pe king some time between Aug. 5 and 11. It reads as follows: "Secretary of State. Washington—Our cipher is safe. May it not be sufficient authenticity? We have been imprisoned and completely besieged since June 23. Continued artillery and riffe firing until July 17: only riffe since, but daily: with it frequently desperate attacks; one last night. Have already reported our losses. French. Italian. Belgian, Austrian and Dutch legations and all other foreign property in Peking destroyed. Dr. Inglis' child dead.

London, Aug. 17. —The following dis patch has been received in Rome from Taku, via Chefu, Aug. 15: "A Russian regiment lias disembarked to protect the rear of the allied forces, which is seriously threatened." According to an undated dispatch from Tien-tsin received in Berlin the railroad between Tien-tsin and Pei-tsan has been restored, and the Russians are repairing the line in the direction of Peking. The British government believes that the allied forces are now at Peking, but no completely trustworthy message, ei ther official or press, has been received. Describing the capture of Ho-si-wu a special dispatch says that the headgear of the Americans was quite insufficient for the awful heat and that the conse quences were direful. As the allies were ten miles from Pe king on Sunday, Aug. 12. according to a semiofficial dispatch received at Tokyo stating that the Chinese seemed to have retreated toward .Peking and that on the preceding night arms and u granary with great stores of rice had been cap tured the military authorities here infer that the Chinese troops defending the capital were not going to fight again out side its walls. Under date of Taku, Aug. 15, the fol lowing dispatch has been received in Rome: "The Japanese admiral announces that the allies occupied Tung-chow last Sun day and that lie is expecting news of an attack oil Peking today." Under date of Tien-tsin, Aug. 14. a dis patch received in Berlin announces that the allies captured ('han-ehia-wan with slight loss, the Chinese leaving 500 dead on the field, while the remainder fled, some to Tung-chow and some to Pe king. General Sir Alfred (iaselee, command ing the contingent of troops from India in China, has wired to the government from Ma-tow under date of Aug. 11, via Chefu.

BRYAN IS INDORSED Result of the Anti-imperialist Convention, MAT NAME ANOTHER TICKET, So Called Third Party Men Do Not Accept tle Action at Indiana polio and Issue a Call For Anothei Meet In fg In New York. Indianapolis, Aug. 17.—The liberty con gress of the American League of Anti imperialists yesterday emphatically in dorsed the candidacy of William J. Bry an for president. The resolutions to that effect were read to the convention by Colonel Charles It. Codman of Massa chusetts. who moved their adoption after stating that the entire committee of 25 had indorsed them. The convention, how ever, did not adopt the platform as sub mitted by the resolutions committee with out prolonged and heated debate. Thomas M. Osborne of Auburn, N. 7., leader of the "third ticket" movement, offered an amendment to strike out in dorsement of Bryan, and his amendment was vigorously supported by several del egates, but when the previous question was ordered less than a score could be marshaled to vote against the Bryan in dorsement. The vote was viva voce, and its exact result will never be known, but the sentiment of the convention was clearly shown as being in favor of the in dorsement of Bryan as the most effective manner of checking the alleged imperial istic policy of the administration. The most vigorous opponents of the Bryan pronouncement in the platform were cdlispicuous members of the Nation al or third ticket convention, who were also admitted as delegates to the anti imperialist congress. They wore led by Thomas M. Osborne and advocated the nomination of a third ticket on the theo ry that their followers while opposed to Resident McKinley were not prepared to accept Mr. Bryan on the Kansas City platform. Some Opposition. Colonel (Diaries K. Codman and Edwin Burrit Smith were the chief proponents of the platform as reported, claiming that all political questions were now subordi nate to the one question of imperialism and that all opposed to the present ad ministration should unite to overthrow it in tin l most effective and available man ner presented. Every mention of Mr. Bryan's name in the convention called forth enthusiastic applause. After the adoption of the resolution in dorsing Bryan the representatives of the third party movement met in the assem bly room of the Commercial club and se lected Thomas M. Osborne of New York for permanent chairman and Everett V. Abbott of New York for permanent sec retary. A motion was made and carried that a convention he held in New York city Sept. 5 for the purpose of nominat ing a ticket. It is said that the third party men of fered the presidential nomination to Moorfield Storey of Massachusetts, but that Mr Storey declined the honor. Wil liam I. Calmer of Colorado was reported to be their choice for vice president. The lenders of the movement said that they expected a largo representation at their convention in New York on Sept. 5 and that candidates for president and vice president would then surely be nominat ed. Louis It. Enrich of Colorado presided at the public meeting held in the even ing. The large crowd present ma infest ed much enthusiasm at the introduction of Charles A. Towne. the speaker of the evening, and the applause throughout his address was generous and frequent. Harmony nt Saratoga. Saratoga, Aug. 17.- The heralded live ly meeting of the Democratic state com mittee is over, and the announced heated argument and fight between David B. Ilill and Richard Croker did not ma terialize. the only controversy being be tween Senator Grady and Mr. Ilill on a motion of Mr. Danforth to select a temporary chairman for the approaching state convention. On this proposition Mr. Ilill was defeated, even though the vote demonstrated that he still has con trol of the state committee. Several votes east against the proposition were so east because the owners thereof were averse to having the party placed In a controversial position between now and the convention. The state committee se lected Saratoga. Sept. 11, as the time and place for the holding of the state convention. Wood r tiar Loom IIIU I'p.
