LONDON, junp 25.—The Interna
tional forces in the section of north
ern China where 10,000 men are striv
ing to keep a footing and to succor the
legations In Pekin appears to ba In
increased peril with every fresh dis
patch. Pekin has not been heard from
directly for fourteen days. The last
dispatch was one Imploring aid Ad
miral Seymour's column of 2,000 was
Inst heard from twelve days ago. At
that time It was surrounded midway
between Pekin and Tien Tsln. Possi
bly now It has reached Pekin.
The 3,000 Internationals at Tien sin
were hard pressed and lighting for
their lives on Thursday and a reliev
ing force of less than a thousand had
been beaten back to Tskn Friday. Ob
servers on the spot think that 100,(tOO
men would not be too many to grasp
China firmly. The admiralty has re
ceived the following from the British
rear admiral at Taku:
“CHE FOO. .June 2i! Only one run
ner has gotten through from Tien Tsln
for five days No Information could
be obtained except that the foreign
settlement had been almost entirely de
stroyed and that our people were fight
ing hard. News has been received as
this dispatch Is nent that an attempt
to relieve Tien Tain on June 11 was
repulsed with some loss.”
The telegram also said: “The allied
admirals are working in perfect accord,
with the Russian vice admiral as sen
ior officer."
A press message from Shanghai, dat
ed yesterday at 4 p. m., embodies some
later Information. It says:
“Official Japanese telegrams eon
fiim the reports of a defeat of the al
lied forces at Tien Tain. The foreign
ers there are now placed in a most des
perate situation. Russian Admiral Uil
lebramlt yesterday sent a mixed force
of 1,000 from Taku to attempt the relief
of 'lien Tain. Nearly half of the force
consisted of Japanese. The remainder
was made up of contingents represent
ing the other nations
“The guns of the Chinese around
Tien Tsin are superior to anything
the European force has or Is likely to
have for some time. The bombard
ment of Tien Tsin continued on I’ri
da.v. Bomb shields were hastily erect
ed by the foreign troops, largely con
structed of wetted piece goods. The
food supplies are insufficient and the
continued shelliirg is reported to he
telling terribly.
“Among those killed of the relief
force on Friday was the commander
of H. M. S. Barfleer. The foreign cas
ualties were 300.
“Japan is making every effort. Iter
troops are now arriving at Taku in
laige numbers. The Chinese troops In
the province of Chi l,i Include 60.000
auxiliaries who have been drilled by
Russian and German officers."
Captain Realty and Lieutenant
Wright, British, have been severely
wounded at Tien Tsin. according to a
dispatch from Shanghai to the l»aily
Express. '1 ne Information was brought
there by the British cruiser Orlando
from Che Poo ami was dated Satur
day. The losses of the Russians were
heavy.
“General Vann Shi Hi, governor of
Shan-Tung, commands 11.000 foreign
drilled troops, organized to a high de
gree of excellence and equipped with
Mausers. It was in the plans that these
troops should go to Taku. hut the seiz
ure of the forts was effected before
they could get there.’
Some of the special dispatches from
Shanghai describe the great southern
province of China as still quiet, but
others assert tiiat the news from the
north is exciting the southerners to a
dangerous height of feeling and that
millions may rise any day. Shang
hai is quiet, hut there are fears of a
rising The action of the consuls in
asking for the departure of the Six
Chinese cruisers was objected to by
the senior naval officer, who informed
them that he had at his disposal a
force sufficient to compel them to
leave if they objected to the presence
of the tieet. The Chinese cruisers are
heaviet armed than the vessels of the
allies, among whose six vessels is the

ATLANTA, Oa.. June 25.—A passen
ger train on the Macon branch of the
Southern railway ran Into a washout
one and a half miles north of McDon
ough, Ga., last night and was com
pletely wrecked. The wreck caught
fire and the entire train, with the ex
ception of the sleeper, was destroyed.
Kvery person on the train except the
| occupants of the Pullman perished,
j Not a member of the train crew es
caped. Thirty-five persons in all were
killed.
The train left Macon at 7:10 p. m.
and was due at Atlanta at 0:45 last
night. McDonough was reached on
time. At this point connection is made
for Columbus, Ga., and here every
night the Columbus train is coupled on
! and hauled through to Atlanta Last
j night, however, for the first, time In
i many months the Columbus train was
reported two hours late on account of
a washout on that branch and the Ma
con train started out without waiting
I for its Columbus connection.
Tremendous rains of dally occur
j rence for the last two weeks have
sw'ollen all streams In this part of
the south and several washouts have
I been reported on the different roads.
Camp's creek, which runs into the
Ocmulgee. was out of Its hanks and
its waters had spread to all the low
lands. About a mile and a half north
of McDonough the creek comes some
what near the Southern tracks and
running alongside it for some distance
finally passes away under the road by
a heavy stone culvert. A cloudburst
broke over that section of the coun
try about C o’clock last night and
shortly after dark washed out a sec
tion of the track nearly lot) feet in
length. Into this the swiftly moving
train plunged. The storm was still
raging and all the car windows were
closed. The passengers, secure as
they thought from the Inclement weath
er. went to death without a moment's
} warning.
I he train, composed of a baggage
car, second-class coach, first-class
coach and a Pullman, was knocked Into
kindling wood by the fall. The wreck
caught (Ire a few minutes after the
fall and all the coaches were burned
except the Piillmsii car
Kvery person on the train except
the occti|>anls of the Pullman car per
I ished in the disaster. There was no
escape, as the heavy Pullman car
weighted down the others and the few
alive in the sleeper were unable to
rentier assistance to their fellow pas
sengers.
For a brief time there v.as silence.
Then the occupants of the Pullman re
covered front the bewilderment and
after hard work managed to get out
of their car and found themselves on
the track in the pouring rain. The
extent of the capacity was quickly ap
preciated. The tlames were seen com
ing from that part >f the wreckage
not covered by the water. As the
train begun to go to pieces under the
destructive work of both flames and
flood human bodies floated out from
the mass and were carried down
stream by the swift current. The
storm did not abate in fury. Flashes
of lightning added to the steady glow
of th" burning train and lit up the
scene with fearful distinctness.
Flagman Quinn, who was one of the
first to get out, at once started for the
nearest telegraph station Making his
way as rapidly as possible in the face
of (lie blinding storm, he stumbled
into the office at McDonough and aftei
telling the night operator of the wreck
fell fainting to the floor. Word was
quickly Rent to both Atlanta and Ma
con, but no assistance was to he had.
except in the latter city, and the wash
out prevented the arrival of any train
from Macon.

LONDON', June 23.—The silence of
Pekin continues unbroken. Four
thousand men of the allied forces were
having sharp defensive lighting at Tien
Tsin Tuesday and Wednesday, with a
prospect of being reinforced on Thurs
day. This is tl* situation In China as
s»t forth iu the British government
dispatch.
“Eight hundred Americans are tak
ing part in tho fighting at Tien Tain,”
say the Shanghai correspondent of tho
Daily Express in ills cable oi last even
ing, and they apparently form a part
ot a supplementary force, arriving with
Germans and British after the conflict
started. It is impossible to estimate
the number of the Chinese there, but
they had a surprising number of guns '’
The information appears to have
been brought tiy the t mi ted o'ates gun
boat Nashville to Che Koo and tele
graphed thence to Shanghai. Tho Chi
nese are deserting Shanghai in large
numbers and going into tne interior.
Reports from native sources continue
to reach Shanghai of anarchy In Pekin.
According to these tales ltie streets are

I Ik* English consulate at Shanghai is
said to have received from influential
natives reports of a tragedy In the
palace at Pekin, though precisely what
It is is not defined. The consulate
thinks teat Admiral Seymour, com
mander of the interantlonal relief col
umn, was misled by information from
Pekin, ami consequently underesti
mated the difficulties in Ills way and
•he Chinese power of resistance with
Maxim gens and Mausers, i he consuls
at Shanghai still believe the foreign
ministers at Pekin safe, although Jap
anese reports received at Shanghai al
lege that up to June 15, 100 foreigners
had been killed in Pekin,
The Daily Express says: "We un
derstand that Mr. Reginald Thomas
secretary of the British embassy In
Washington, is to succeed Sir Claude
McDonald at Pekin and that the rea
son of Hit ('aide's recall is the break
down of his health.”
A special dispatch from Vienna says:
“Id Hung Chang lias wired the vari
ous Chinese legations in Europe direct
ing them to inform the governments
to which they are accredited that he is
called to Pekin by the empress to act
as Intermediary between China and
the powers to negotiate a settlement of
the points at issue, and he instructs
them to beg the powers to facilitate
his mission by declining to send fur
ther troops to China.
Sheng, director of telegraphs, wires
from Shanghai to the Chinese legations
in Europe that the foreign legations In
Pekin are safe. It is reported that tlie

No mention was made of the trans

| LONDON, June 23.—General Steyn'»
force in the Orange River colony are
I for the time drawing moat of the at
| tention of Lord Roberts, rather to the
neglect of Commandant General Louis
Botha and President Kruger.
The severance between the Trans
vaal and the Orange River colony was
completed yesterday, as Lord Roberts
said it would be by the arrival of Gen
eral lRiller’a advance guard, under
Lord Dundonald, at Standerton. Tiic
wide knot around the 6.000 or 8.000
men under General Steyn will not con
I tract. Adroit maneuvering and brisk
lighting are likely to take place, be
cause until all resistance south of the
Vna! is at an end, the British line of
communication will not he safe.
President Kruger's principal eondi
renderod to General Baden-Powell, are
back on their farms und working
peacefully. General Baden-Powell
rode with only 300 men from Mafeklng
and he made the last section of ills
ride to Pretoria with only thirty-five.
Lord Roberts met him in the outskirts
of the town and escorted him to the
presidency.
tleneral DeWet's farm houses have
been burned by the British. General
Buller has issued a special order eulo
gizing the services of Stratheona's
horse.
Captain Jones and the brigade from
h. M. S. Forte have been ordered back
to the ship at the admiral's request.
President Kruger.s principal condi
tion for immediate peace Is that he be
allowed to stay in the country.
There are 5,000 British sick and
wounded at Pretoria.
Mrs. Reitz, wife of the Transvaal
stale secretary, and her family, who
arrived here enroute for Europe, had
so little money that the Dutch consul
purchased second class steamship tick
ets fur them.

WASHINGTON, June 23.—It is un
derstood tlytt the I'nited Slates at
torney at New York will take action
within tlie next day or two looking to
the prompt removal of Neely, the al
leged embezzler of Cuban postal
funds, to Havana for trial. Judge I .a*
combe, before whom the rase will be
brought, expects to leave New York on
July 2 and it is his wish that the mat
ter be disposed of before his departure.
Some days ago the government sent to
Havana for copies of papers wanted
in the case; also for a certified copy
of article 401 of the old Bpanish-Cuban
laws against the crime of embezzle
ment. These papers have beeh re
ceived and forwarded to I'nited States
Attorney Burnett, who will prosecute
the case.
There are two indictments against
Neely, one for violation of articles 4dl
of the Spanish-Cuban laws and the
other is under sections 33 to r>? of
the Cuban postal code. The former
case is said to bo the stronger and it is
probable that he will be tried first un
i der the indictment for violating arti
cle 401. Officials here expect that Nee
| ly's counsel rvill take the case to the
i’nited Slates supreme court.

CLEVELAND, June 23.—General
Nelson A. Miles, who came here to
witness a test of the recently invented
McClain ordnance, in an interview re
garding the Chinese question, is quot
ed as saying:
‘Our government will be prompt to
! act in that matter as soon as the true
pituatlon Is learned This country
will be equal to the emergency, and
when decisive action is taken It will be
of such a character as to lie effective.
The trouble in China is most serious
and the result is most difficult to pre
dict. What is likely to result from
the uprising is certainly a very serious
proposition.
"The I'nited States will send enough
troops to China to protect the Ameri
cans there and American interests.
More troops than those already detail
ed will lie sent to China speedily if
tlie situation demands. The dignity
and rights of the government will lie
upheld."
