THE CHINESE CRISIS. Europeans have boon teaching the Chi nese how to fight. What for?— New York .World. Not siure Napoleon Bonaparte escaped from Elba has such an avalanche of trouble threatened the civilized nutious of the earth.—Chicago Inter Ocean. The precipitation of war with China by the allied powers before they had forces in position to defend their citizens made the murder of their residents in China the logical result. —Philadelphia Times. There is a grim suggestiveness in the fact that such a modern army as China possesses is largely the product of Ger man instruction, as it was drilled by Ger man officers and urmcd with German guns.—Troy Times. The surprise caused by the weakness of China in the war with Japan may be followed by another surprise caused by the discovery that the 400,000,000 Chi nese, after all, constitute a gigantic power.—Philadelphia Record. If tho powers cannot save, they can punish. If their punishment must be 6low, it will be sure and deadly and last lug; tho memory of it will linger in Chi nese tradition like the horrid punishments of the Indian mutiny.—New York Com mercial Advertiser. China is defying tho world. It now re mains to be seen whether the 400,000,000 of natives can be led into war or whethei the nution lacks cohesiveness, as has so often been asserted. It is at least certain that when the present trouble is ended the world will know more about China than it does now.—lndianapolis Journal. THE DOMINIE. The Rev. Burris A.

Allies Fail to Find Any of Them Around Peking. THE LEGATIONS IN DESOLATION, Attempt WUH Wiile to llloiv I'| tlie Atnorlenit Building In tlie Chin cue Cap I tnl—l*enee Neicotlutloii* Said to Have Ileen l)etcnii. London. Aug. 29.—A dispatch from Pe king, dated Aug. 21, via Taku, Aug. 27, "Three Russian, two Japanese, one British and one American battalion searched the Imperial park, south of the city and about five miles out, for Boxers. No armed force was found, but only u single Chinese scout, who was killed. "The Japanese arc in possession of the imperial summer palace. The winter pal ace here is still closely guarded. The Russians wish to destroy it, but the Jap anese desire to save it. A southward movement began today and will con tinue, but several detachments will re main to protect converts." A Renter dispatch, dated Peking, Aug. 15. and sent by post to Shanghai, de scribes scenes of appalling desolation and wanton • destruction in Legation street. All Mie houses of foreigners were riddled with shells, burned or blown up. An attempt was made to mine the Amer ican legation. A shaft was sunk from the top of the wall 15 feet deep and was then continued as a tunnel, with a sharp slope, in the direction of the legation. Apparently the Chinese did not have time to finish it. The Chinese legation in St. Petersburg has received news that pence negotiations have already begun. The Peking correspondent of The Dai ly News, in a dispatch dated Aug. 17. asserts that there are thousands of in stances going to show that the Boxers were approved by the imperial officials in their indescribable ferocity. The Hongkong correspondent of The Times, wiring yesterday, says: "There are reports of continued ag gression by Black Flags on North rivei and of the deliberate l destruction of mis sion property." IN WAITING ATTITUDE. Absence of \'WH From china llanill- ON (IN tin- (■overiimeiit, Washington, Aug. 29. —The govern ment is in a waiting attitude regarding the Chinese situation. The lack of late: advice's from Peking and the; failure; ol the powers to show their hands as to their future policy makes it necessary for this government to await develop ments. The administration considers it of the? greatest importance that in tho negotiations for u settlement of the Chi nese difficulty all the' powers should act in unison and harmony, and its efforts are being directed to that end. The powers, however, seem slow to declare themselves. Several replies have been receiveel to the instructiems seut to our embassadors and ministers last week asking them to sound the governments tc which they are nccre'dited on two propo sitions—first, the willingness of these governments to the sufficiency of Li Hung Chang's credentials to treat with the powers for a settlement, and, second, to ascertain if possible what tin future policy of each power is to be. Power* Wnteliiiiii Hitch Oilier. Regarding the latter inquiry, the re plies thus far have developed nothing. The powers appear to be watching each other without definite or fixed purpose as yet of their own. With regard to the first Inquiry, Great Britain and Russia are agreed that Earl Li's credentials are sufficient. Germany, however, takes u firm stand against the sufficiency of his credentials and is tlie only power as yet which has returned a fiat footed dis sension. The attitude of the United States is that liis credentials appear authentic. They were promulgated by what appear ed to be a genuine imperial edict, duly transmitted through the accredited Chi nese minister. Mr. Wu, and the United States is willing to accept them at theii face value, at least for the present. The president and the cabinet are as much in the dark regarding the dale when the dispatches of Minister C'ongei and General Chaffee left Peking as is the general public. They can find no ex planation for the fact that they have come through without Peking dates ex cept that they evidently wore sent by courier to Tnlcu and that cablegrams are relayed 18 times after leaving the lat ter point. They may have been sent from Taku without Peking dates or they may have lost the date en route. Inter nal evidence was found in late dispatches reeoived from them that tended to dem onstrate that some person or persons had been purposely delaying the messages coming from Peking and Tien-tsin to Washington. ItlennitKcn Tampered Willi. It is also suspected that our messages may have been injuriously tampered with. The cabinet came to the conclu sion that if any Chinese persons have interfered with the dispatches the inter ference must have occurred on the wires between Chefu and Shanghai, and it was determined to reopen direct communica tion by means of a war vessel. Either the New Orleans or tlie Princeton, now at Shanghai, will be sent at once to Chefu, where the military cable system begins free from Chinese interference. The administration has nothing tending to confirm the alarmist rumors regarding the situation at Peking. Admiral Remey reports nothing disquieting, and it is as sumed that it there was any prospect of the allies being attacked and hemmed in he would be in a position to hear of it and would promptly report it to Wash ington. Deport From C'lnifTee. Three messages from General Chaffee have been received, and while they east no direct light on the military situation they were inferentially important. The general's statement that he needs no siege battery, taken in connection with the diversion of the First cavalry, which was bound for Taku. to Manila, seems to make clear that there is no intention to enter into a prolonged campaign in China such as would involve the use of heavy artillery or of re-enforcements in the lhape of men and horses. At the same time it cannot be said that the govern ment has shown any signs of a purpose to abandon any just claim it may have, secured upon China through the brilliant operations of the lit'tfe American force in the Flowery Kingdom. But ir begins to appear that the battle of today is one of diplomacy rather than one of arms, and notwithstanding the various rumors that have filtered out from Chinese sources of heavy engage ments bet ween t the international forces and the Boxers the olficinls here are satisfied that no formidably organized resistance will be offered by the Chinese if the demands of the powers are limit ed to the principles laid down by the United States in its several notes. Ciettiiiir Heady For Winter. A dispatch from Tien-tsiu, Aug. 24, via Taku, Aug. 27, says: "Officers who have arrived here from Peking report that General Chaffee, com manding the American forces in China, is making all the necessary preparations to maintain 15,000 men through the win ter. Fifteen of the American wounded, including the marines wounded during the siege of the legations, have arrived here by boat from Peking. Captain Myers of the United States marine eorps is suffering from typhoid fever and can not be moved. A large batch of refu gees is due here today. The American signal service corps, co-operating with that of the British, has completed the telegraph line from Taku to Peking." Captain John T. Myers, or Jack Myers, as he is familiarly known, who was as signed to command the legation defend ers at Peking, was horn in Germany and was appointed from the state of Geor gia, entering the marine corps in Sep tember, 1887. He is the reputed author of the famous satirical i>oem, "Hoeli der Kaiser," which involved Captain Cogh lan in so much difficulty. lie was at tached to the flagship Baltimore and was afterword assigned to duty with the marines on board the battleship Oregon. The Situation at Ainoy. Hongkong. Aug. 2b. —General Goto, from the island of Formosa, Japanese territory, commands the Japanese forces occupying Anioy. Large bodies of troops have been landed, and Nordenfeldt guns have been mounted, commanding the city. Many Chinese are leaving. The British cruiser Isis sailed* from here yesterday under sealed orders. It is thought probable she is going to Amoy. Canton is quiet. The large merchant guilds are feeding the poor in order to prevent a disturbance. iii iitum Cluum n iiontimc. Paris, Aug. 29.—Admiral Courrejolles, the French commander in Chinese wa ters, has cabled to the navy department here that a council of the admirals has given notice to the foreign legations at Peking that it has been decided to hold Li llunjr Cluing on hoard ship until the diplomats have consented to open nego tiations with the Chinese. NEW YORK PRIMARIES. SuliNtnnlial Victory For the C'roker- Murpliy Force*. New York, Aug. 29.—The Herald this morning says: "David B. 11 ill and Comptroller Bird S. Coler seem to have gone down before the impetuous attack of the Croker-Murphy forces in the Democratic primaries held in the principal cities of the state yes terday. "Indications last night pointed to the control of the state convention by Mr. Croker and Mr. Murphy, the defeat of Mr. Color's candidacy for governor and the nomination of a state ticket in sym pathy with Tammany I hill. "Greater New York will ho solidly against I [ill and Color. In Brooklyn, where the comptroller expected to divide the delegation, his friends were put to rout, and the organization as represented by James Shevlin is in complete control of the situation. "In the interior of the state the Hill forces scored some unexpected victories, hut not. enough to redeem the day. "Abraham Gruber, who has declared war on Senator Piatt in the Twenty-first assembly district of this borough, won a sweeping victory. "William F. Sheehan, who went to Buffalo to overthrow Norman E. Mack, Mr. Croker's member of the national committee, and to restore Erie county to the Hill column, carried only one of the 25 wards of the city. His repulse was more complete than even the Croker- Murphy faction had expected. It clinch ed the nail that Kings county had driven into Mr. Hill's ambition." Kx-L*re*llciit* HH Arbitrator*. Washington, Aug. 29.—The United States is one of the first of the great powers to demonstrate its good faith in carrying out the provisions of the treaty of The Hague, looking to the universal arbitration of international differences. Under this treaty each of the nations a party to it was authorized to appoint four members of an international hoard of arbitration. Under this authority Pres ident McKinlcy has requested former Presidents Harrison and Cleveland to accept appointments on this board. Re sponses are expected very soon, when the remaining members may be selected. A'IMV Kind of CiiNtom* Officer.

VETERANSOWN CHICAGO Nothing Too Good For Old Sol diers In the Breezy City. THIRTY THOUSAND MEN IN LINE. The I'nraile Declared to He the <>reate*t Military PaK'iint Since the Union Army Wan Reviewed and l)l*lanled In Washington. Chicago, Aug. 29. —The annual busi ness meeting of the Grand Army of the Republic is held today in the Studehnker theater. The meeting was called to or der by Commander Shaw, and an address of welcome was made by Mayor Har rison, Commander Shaw replying for the members of the army. J. L. Longeneeker of Chicago then, speaking for the old soldiers of Illinois, extended a greeting from the state, ami to this General Louis Wagner made the reply. This evening the principal affair will be the banquet of the Hamilton club in the Auditorium hotel. It was originally intended that President McKinley should be the guest of honor at the banquet, but owing to bis absence Speaker David B. Henderson will make an address. Sentiment in regard to the place for holding the next annual encampment has crystallized apparently in favor of a far western city, with Denver in the lead for the honor. Thirty Thousand In I,lnc. The military pageant which marked the climax of the encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic was, ac cording to Commander In Chief Shaw, the greatest parade since that day in Washington, when the hundreds of thou sands of veterans, the most powerful army on earth, marched in review to their final disbandment. Probably 3(1,000 members of the army of veterans took part in the parade, which was witnessed by probably 1.000.- 000 people. For exactly four hours ami 20 minutes, most of the time with ranks almost perfectly hligucd, but occasional ly faltering under their burden of years, they tiled past the reviewing stand on Michigan avenue. Weather conditions were almost ideal for the parade, wearisome enough at best for the silver haired veterans. The line of march, too, was much shorter than ever before mapped out for the annual parade, its entire length not being over four miles, but notwithstanding this here and there n veteran, dazed uud exhaust ed, dropped out of the ranks. Especially was this true after the reviewing stand was passed, ami many pathetic scenes were witnessed down the long streteh|of Michigan avenue as the veterans fell by the wayside. One especially sad incident occurred to mar in a degree the glory of the parade, Charles Beck with of Algonseu, Mich., dropping dead as the line was tiling past the corner of Michigan avenue and Mad ison street. The parade was halted for a moment, the body of the veteran who had'responded to his last call was tender ly removed, ami his comrades passed on. Cheered ly Va*t Crowd*. Long before the hour for the parade to start the sidewalks along the line of march were packed from curl) to wall, the windows of the immense office build ings, gay with fluttering flags uud bunt ing, were filled with sightseers, while along Michigan avenue, where were erect ed the beautiful columns and arches forming the court of honor, the crowd was so great that the hundreds of police had great difficulty in keeping clear the line of march. And all during the hours that the veterans tramped by this sea of humanity roared its welcome. In the grand stand, erected down the slope of the lake front park near the Logan monument, were gathered scones of officers who won their fame iu the civil war. statesmen and diplomats. 111 the center box of the reviewing stand were Lieutenant General Nelson A. Miles, representing ['resident McKinley; Uoiniiiamler In Chief Shaw, General Jo seph E. Wheeler, General Daniel E. Sickles, Mayor Harrison of Chicago and W. 11. Harper. To their left were Act ing Governor Warder, Speaker David Henderson of the house''of representa tives, Bishop Fallows and Senator Shel by M. Uulloni, and to their right the Spanish minister, Duke d'Arcos. Cheer* For "Old Abe.*' The first cheers from the reviewing stand were given to the famous old war eagle* of the Wisconsin troops, "Old Abe," the stuffed figure of which, borne aloft by a brawny buckskin dressed vet eran, was heartily greeted by the crowds and saluted by General Miles and the others in the boxes. The post escorting "Old Abe" was closely followed by Lucius Fairfield post, which startled the crowds by stopping in front of General Miles and Commander Shaw and giving the familiar "Rah ralix" of the Univer sity <f Wisconsin. It was somewhat cracked and feeble, but it showed the umlimmcd spirit that made the Iron brigade famous, and it started the crowd to cheering again. A few moments later George G. Monde Dost No. 1 of Pennsylvania tiled by. Borne aloft by 24 silver haired veterans were as ninny battle flags, tattered and torn by bullets, and close behind them ten equally ragged corps flags. They were the first of the many battle flags carried iu the parade that were seen by the thousands along the line of march, and everywhere the ragged banners were greeted with cheers. They were follow ed by Philip Schuyler post, with eight battle tings; Knapp's battery of Pennsyl vania, with three guidons, and Lytic Post No. 128 of Allegheny City, with three battle flags. Nearly every post in the Pennsylvania section in fact proudly marched behind one or more of these mute reminders of the southern battle fields of years ago, and every standard was saluted and cheered. Riiipirc State Veteran*. New York was rich with three em blems. O'Rourko Post No. 1 of Roches ter, the veterans all in uniform and car rying rifles, held aloft two civil war banners. Chnpin Post No. 2 of Buf falo, bended by the old Continental I>rum and Bugle corps, carried 2.'t bat tle flags and one guidon, alPof them in ribbons. The Thirteenth infantry of Rochester, the regiment that met such heavy losses at Malvern Ilill, bore un furled their flag. It was ragged and faded almost white, but it had the names of many hard fought battles inscribed thereon, and the crowds greeted this, too. with great cheering. Shortly after passing the reviewing stand the line of march disbanded, and most of the veterans, tired with the hours of march, sought their hotels and lodg ing ilace. PUBLIC OPINION. Opinion* From Vnrlou* Source* on Uncntlon* of Public Intercut. The German meat bill is a mistake; the Dingley bill was a mistake, and the Bailey bill and all other retaliatory measures, which will result in arousing further hostility and greater restriction upon trade, are also sheer folly.—Phil adelphia Public Ledger (Rep.), The Filipinos are a primitive people and incapable of self government, but Gen. Otis says they are enthusiastic about building roads and astonishing ly eager for schools. He says they are clamoring for schools everywhere, have exhausted a $40,000 supply of school books and are asking for En glish instead of Spanish books. It might be well to give them books in stead of bullets.—Philadelphia North American. During the past four years 700 trusts have been formed, and yet with one exception not a suit has been brought by the 76 United States district at torneys against these unlawful com binations. The exception was the suit of District Attorney Bunday, of Cin cinnati, and he got telegraphic orders from the United States attorney to desist when he set out to indict the coal trust officials —Ex-Attorney Gen eral Monnett, of Ohio, Rep. "Trade follows the flag!" whoops an administration journal with a calcu lating eye on China. The trouble is that other people have equally calcu lating eyes on China and that their flags are likewise flopping in the winds of the middle kingdom. Incidentally, too, it may be mentioned that trade hasn't followed the flag into Luzon, where Europe beats us in tne ratio of 16 to 1, and that trade has to hop over a 25 per cent tariff to get into Porto Rico. Let us ponder these things.— Chicago Chronicle. A nation which denies the principle that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the gov erned can give self government to one colony and deny It to another; it can give it to colonies strong enough to exact it by force and deny it to weaker ones; but a nation which recognizes the people as the only sovereigns and regards those temporarily in authority merely as public servants is not at lib erty to apply the principle to one sec tion of the county and refuse it to an other.—William J. Bryan. The gentlemen who are so fearful of socialism when the poor are ex empted from an income tax, view with indifference those methods of taxation which give the rich substantial ex emption. They weep more because $15,000,000 is to be collected from the incomes of the rich than they do at the collection of $300,000,000 upon the goods which the poor consume. And when an effort is made to equalize these burdens, not fully, but partially only, the people of the south and west are called anarchists.—William J. Bryan in the house of representatives. Pennsylvania farmers may be im portant allies in the fusion campaign for anti-Quay members of the legisla ture. They are aggrieved at the apathy of the state administration in execut ing the anti-oleomargarine laws, and many of them are expected to follow the advice of the State Grange. Patrons of Husbandry, "to unite, irrespective of party affiliations or factional asso ciations. in the support of fusion mem bers of the senate and house of repre sentatives in districts where thh rights of the people have been persistently disregarded by the local leaders of the dominant party." The Democratic partv has never ac quired an inch of territory that P did not sign and seal a covenant with its inhabitants that they should have ail the rights of American citizenship and that their territory should be finally admitted as states of the Union. Tim Republican party was the only party in this country that has eVer proposed to hold vassal provinces, and the Dem ocratic party wanted no shore of the honor. If a people were not fit for free institutions, our free Institutions were not fit for the government of such peo ple. We could not afford to become tyrants on the ground that another people were not fit to he free.—Hon. It. R. Carmack, Tennessee. The Philadelphia platform is the best evidence thus far given of the de ception attempted by the Republican party. Taken in conection with the speeches made at the convention, it shows that the Republican party's plat form in 1896 was a deliberate fraud as far as the promises of international bi metallism were concerned; that the party's attitude on trusts is insincere, and that the party is willing to state lis attitude on the Philippine question arid invite the judgment of the people. Nothing was more manifest in the con vention than the military spirit, and yet the convention did not dare indorse the course of the president in 189S for a standing army of 100,000 men—Will iam J. Bryan. I know how feeble is a single voice amid the din and tempest, this de lirium of empire. It may be that the battle for this day is lost. But I have an assured faith in the future. I have an assurod faith in justice and in the love of liberty of the American people. The stars in their courses light for freedom. The ruler of the heavens is on that side. If the battle today go against it I appeal to another day not distant and sure to come. I appeal from the clapping of hands and the stamping ol feet and the brawling and the shouting to the quiet chamber where the fathers gathered in Phila delphia. I appeal from the spirit of trade to the spirit of liberty. I ap peal from the empire to the republic. I appeal from the millionaire and the boss and the wire puller and the man ager t® the statesman of the older time, in whose eyes a guinea never glistened, who lived and died poor and who left to his children and his coun trymen a good name, far better than riches. I appeal from the present to the future and the past. —Senator George F. Hoar, Rep. RAILROAD TIMETABLES LEHIGH VALLEY RAILROAD. May 27, I'JOU. i AHRANQEMKNT OF PASSENGER TRAINS.

BUTllKlt C. SMITH, Superintendent. Colonel GtiA'ey n* u Lcuder. As predicted some time ago by the writer, the influence of the Pennsylva nia delegation was not frittered away at the Kansas Ciity convention. Under the magnificent leadership of Col. J. M. Ciuffoy the delegation, acting as a unit, wielded large influence in the great convention, not alone in shaping the platform, lint in the nomination of the vice president. Mr. Stevenson owes ills nomination largely to Col. GnflVy, with the Pennsylvania delegation be hind him. On Tuesday evcing prior to the meeting of the convention Col. Guf fey, in conference with three or four other national leaden*, concluded that the vice presidential nominee must lie a Democrat, and at this meeting Mr. Stevenson was agreed upon as the most available man for the vice presi dential nomination, and from this con ference Col. GnlTey took up the fight and maintained it until the man of his choice was selected. The wisdom of that choice is unversnlly conceded. Senator Hill, of New York, was a fa vorite for vice president, not alone in Pennsylvania, hut in many other states of the Union. Col. Guffey. how ever. soon learned after his arrival in KansiiH City that Hill would not accept a nomination and that his nomination would fie unwise, and with his usual quick discernment decided on Steven son. It is a satisfaction for Pennsyl vania Democrats to know that their their trusted leader was one of the few men whose advice was sought by dele gates from all sections of tiie country.' He lins made a national reputation as one uf the great leaders of the party.
