AWFUL LOSS Of LIFE.

Extraordinary Woman
of the Far Ea$ta
Tho empress of China Is tho one
oriental character that absorbs most
attention Just now. Tzo list Is not a
real empress, but a usurper. Origi
nally sho wns not an empress at all,
but was given that honorary rank as
tho mother of Hlen Fung's only son,
sho being that emperor's concubine.
Hlen Fung was succeeded by Tung
Cho, and this ambitious woman found
hor opportunity when Tung Cho died,
In 1S7C, without an liolr. Tradition
demanded that tho now emperor bo at
least an adoptod son of somo branch
of tho royal family. Tho Infant
Kwang Su, who is now tho imprisoned
and deposed emperor of China, was
chosen. But ho was not of tho right
generation to bo adopted as tho son
of tho lato Tung Che, so ho waa intro
duced into tho succession by adoption
to Hlen Fung, and tho presont dow
ager empress beenruo rcgont until ho
should como of ago, In 1889. Sho Is
tho young cmporor'B aunt.
This arrangement loft tho dead cm
poror, Tung Cho, without an ndoptod
heir to perpctuato his lino. To moot
this difficulty It wob docrced that whon
tbo child ompuror should grow up his
first son should bo adopted to Tung
Cho. Herein tho ambitious downgor

to selzo tho power, for tho young em
peror, Kwang Su, has had no children.
Having taBtod tho sweets of powor as
regent, she reluctantly roslgncd tho
reins into tho omporor's hands whon
long tlmo sho was still tho real ruler.

When Kwang Su began to exorcise his

In view of tho summary stylo In
which tho dowager empress nt onco

Increased peril with every fresh dis
patch. Pekln has not been heard from
directly for fourteen days. Tho last
dispatch was ono imploring aid. Ad
miral Seymour's column ot 2,000 wns
last heard from twelve days ago. At
that time It was surrounded midway
between Pekln and Tien Tsln. Possi
bly now It hns reached Pekln.
The 3,000 Internationals at Tien sin
wcro hnrd pressed nnd lighting for
their lives on Thursday nnd a reliev
ing force ot less than a thousand had
been bciitcn back to Taku Friday. Ob
servers on the fipot think that 100,000
men would not be too many to grasp
China firmly. The admiralty ban re
ceived tho following from the British
rear admiral at Taku:
"CHE FOO. June 23. Only ono run
ner hns gotten through from Tien tsln
for five days. No Information could
be obtained except that the foreign
settlement hnd beon almo3t entirely de
stroyed and that our people wero light
ing hard. News has been received as
this dispatch is sent that an attempt
to relieve Tien Tsln on June 22 was
repulsed with some loss."
Tho telegram nlso said: "Tho nlliou
admirals aro working In perfect accord,
with the Russian vlco admiral as sen
ior officer."
A press message from Shanghai, dat
ed yesterday at 4 p. m embodies some
later Infonnv'pn. It says:
"Ofuchil J.V nose telegrams con
firm the renortSv a defeat of the nl
lled forces at TloirTsln. The foreign
ers there nre now placed In a most des-
pcrato situation. Russian Admiral Hll-
lebrandt yesterday sent a mixed force
of 1.000 from Taku to attempt the relief
of Tien Tsln. Nearly half of tho force
consisted of Japanese. Tho romalnder
was made up of contingents represent
ing tho other nations.
"Tho guns ot the Chlncso around
Tien Tsln aro aupotlor to anything
the European force has or Is likely to
havo for somo time. Tho bombard
ment of Tien Tsln continued on Fri
day. Ronib shields wcro hastily erect
ed by the foreign troops, largely con
structed of wetted piece goods. Tho
food supplies nre insufficient and the
continued shelling is reported to bo
telling terribly.
"Among thoso killed of tho relict
forco on Friday was the commander
of II. M. S. Uarflcor. Tho foreign cas
ualties were 300.
"Japan Is making every effort. Hor
troops nre now nrrlvlng nt Taku In

tho province of Chi LI Inclndo 60,000
auxiliaries who havo been drlllod by
Russian nnd Ccrmun officers."
Captain Bcatty nnd Lieutenant
Wright, Hritlsh. havo been severely
wounded at Tien 'Mil, according to a
dispatch from Shanghai to tho Dally
Express. 'I no Information was brought
lliero by the British cruiser Orlando
from Che Foo and was dated Satur
day. The losses of the Russians were
henvy.
"General Yann Shi Kl, governor of
Shan-Tung, commands 11,000 foreign
drilled troops, organized to n high de
gree of excellence and equipped with
Mausers. It was In the plans that these
troops should go to Taku, but the selz
uro of tho forts was effected before
they could get there."
Somo of tho Bpeclal dispatches from
Shanghai describe tho great southern
provlnco of China us still quiet, but
others assert that the news from tho
north Is exciting tho southerners to n
dangerous height of feeling and that
millions may rlso nny day. Shang
hnl la quiet, but there aro fears of a
rising. Tho action of the consuls In
asking tor tho depnrture of tho Six
Chlne30 cruisers was objected to by
tho senior naval officer, who Informed
thorn that he had at his disposal n
force sufficient to compol them to
leave If they objected to the presence
of tho floet. The Chinese cruisers nre
heavier armed than tho vessols of the

The powers aro said to havo fntally

night, howover, for tho first tlmo In
many months tho Columbus train was
reported two hours lato on account of
a wnshout on that branch and tho Ma
con train started out without waiting
for its Columbus connection.
Tremendous rains of dally occur
ronco for tho Inst two weeks havo
swollen all streams In this part or
tho south nnd several washouts havo
beon reported on the different roads.
Camp's creek, which runs Into the

Its waters had spread to all tho low
lands. About n mllo and a half north

running nlongsltlo It for some dlstnnco

a heavy stono culvert. A cloudburst
broko over thnt section of tho coun

shortly after dark washed out a sec

train plunged. Tho storm wns still
raging nnd all tho enr windows wero
closed. Tho passengers, secure ns
they thought rrom the Inclement weath
er, wont to death without a moment's
warning.
The train, composed ot n bnggago
car, second-class coach, first-class
conch nnd n Pullman, was knocked Into
kindling wood by tho fall. Tho wreck
caught flro a few minutes after tho
fall and all tho coaches were buracd
except tho Pullman enr.
Evory person on tho train except

escape, ns tho heavy Pullman car
weighted down the others and the few
nlivo In the sleeper wero unable to
render nsslstanco to their follow pas
sengers. For a brief tlmo there was silence.
Then tho occupants of tho Pullman re
covered from the howlldormcnt and
aftoi' hard work managed to got out
of tholr car and found themselves on

extent of tho capacity was quickly ap
preciated. Tho flames wero scon com

not covered by tho water. As tho
train began to go to pieces under the
destructive work ot both flames nnd
flood human bodies floated out from
tho mass and woro carried down

storm did not abate In fury. Flnshes
or lightning ndded to tho steady glow
of tho burning train and lit up tho
sceno with fearful distinctness.
Flagman Quinn, who was ono ot the
first to get out, at once started for tho
nearest telegraph station. Making his
way aa rapidly as posslblo in tho faco
or tho blinding storm, ho stumbled
