PEKIN , June 10. The situation here is appalling. The Boxers have destroyed the railroad. The native government has refused additional guards to foreigners. Only 400 armed men of all nationalities are here. American missionaries are all assem bled in the Methodist compound ( in- closure ) , which has a guard of only ten marines. Frightful reports of butcheries of Christians come from the country. In every instance the troops furnished by the native government have amalga mated with the Boxers. The government has not even re buked the troops , thus proving its in tent. tent.Only Only one slender wire holds com munication between Pekin and the out side world. There are twenty-four foreign war ships at Taku , but they are .prac tically defied by the Chinese govern ment. The Tsung li Yamen ( Chinese for eign ministry ) seems to mean well , but is powerless.

Thus far live boats have reached the lakes from Dawson and the rush for the states is fairly on. Among the returning Daw- aonites are many women and chil dren.

BOLD RAID OF BOERS. Twenty Miles of Itullroad lletwccn Kood- cvnl iiml America Siding Cut. LONDON , June 11. 3:30 a. m. 'Hie Boers have torn up twenty-one miles of Lord Roberts' vital line of rail way between America Siding and Roodeval. Is is a bold raid and vex atious , but Jt does not disquiet the military authorities as yet , for they expect General Kelly-Kenny to drive off the marauders and to reopen the line. line.The The rapidity of the advance of Lord Roberts cannot have permitted him to accumulate large reserves of stores. Therefore an interruption of the rail way for a week must embarrass the army and may bring the forward operations to a standstill. Nothing has been heard ftom Lord Roberts for three days. This raid on the railway , the strenuous opposition to General Rundel and the escape of General Botha's division have forced the War office authorities to the con clusion that the war is not yet over , though even the occasional civilian Boer sympathizer can not see how the Boers will be able to do anything to change the result. General Buller is in Boer territory. The dispatches of correspondents with him at Sunset , near Koomatiport , de scribe the corps on the frontier of the Free State. "The British marched eight miles yesterday , " says the Renter corre spondent , "before encountering any op position. The Boers , who had one gun , withdrew under heavy ordnance fire to a ridge just ahead of the camp. " The long range running skirmish will doubtless be renewed this morn ing. General Buller is expected to make rapid progress now and to throw the weight of 20,000 men into Lord Roberts' Transvaal combination. AGUINALDO AS ARCH FIEND. Rebel Leader Auvixes Use of Boiling Water and Oil. MANILA , May 11. The great store of insurgent documents discovered by General Funston , together with some interesting papers which Captain Smith found in the possession of Gen eral Pantaleon Garcia , throw interest ing side lights upon the Filipino gov ernment. Most important of the lot is Aguinaldo's plan for the uprising in Manila , which was drawn by him at Malolos. It is in his own handwriting in the Tagalog language and bears the date of January fl , 1899. Pinned to the document was a translation into Span ish done by the hand of Buencaminc. Aguinaldo's order was addressed to his "valiant sandalihans , " or bolomen. When the word of the uprising was given they were to slay all American soldiers in Manila. The insurgents were to repair to housetops , whence they were to hurl down upon the sol diers heavy furniture and any iron im plements they might have heated red hot. They were also to have ready In their houses hot water , which was to be thrown upon passing soldiers or squirted at them from bamDoo syringes. The won en and children \ were exhorted to help in preparing tue water and boiling oil , which they were to pass out to the men for use. After wards the bolomen were to run through the streets slashing Ameri cans ( v/herever they met them. Settlement in Sight. CHICAGO , 111. , June 11. Arrange ments have been completed for a joint conference between a committee from the 1 building contractors' council anfl representatives of every bjuilding and material trades union in Chicago now on strike , and a formal call for the meeting was issued to be held tomor row. This will bring together for the first time since the strike was called several months ago the contractors and their former employes , no business agents being allowed to represent any of the unions , and both sides are now confident that a settlement of the strike , which has involved 50,000 men and resulted in a practical suspension of building operations in Chicago , is at last in sight. Race for Flying Machines. PAKIS , June 11. Great 'Inteit-r. : is manifested in the coming competion of steering balloons. The conditions are just published , but the date , though near , is yet unsettled. The competitors must start from the Aero club grounds at St. Cloud , the Paris suburb , head for tne Eiffel tower , turn round the top and then return Balloons unable to return to the starting poiat within half an hour after departure are debarred from prizes. The two favorite competitors among the experts are Santos Dumont , the well known aeronaut , who uses a double cigar-shaped balloon propelled by a petroleum motor , and Emmanuel Amir . , using a flying macnm * heavier than air. No Navy for Cuba. HAVANA , June 11. General Lacret has brought before Governor General Wood the plan which originated last year for forming a Cuban navy , to D9 composed at the outset of sixty vessels , having in view for the present the pro tection of Cuban fisheries and the pre vention of smuggling. Last year the entire plan was rejected as unneces sary , it being felt that twelve small revenue cutters would be adequate and that these could be maintained much cheaper in connection with the cus toms department. General Wood takes the same view and the Cuban navy will therefore probably remain In abeyance until Cuba is independent. Regulars for the Philippines. WASHINGTON , June 11. Orders were issued at the war department to day for the first squadron of the Sixth cavalry , consisting of neadquarteis and troops A , B , C and D , and the third squadron of the same regiment , con sisting of troops I , K , L and nl , to pro ceed without delay to San Francisco for transportation to the Philippines on the first available transports. So far these are the only troops selected for service in the Philippines under the plan of bringing home the entire 31,000 volunteers and of maintaining the regular army in the Philippines at a strength of 40,000 men. Difficult to Verify Stories of Engage ments Between Boxers and Troops. CITIES PREPARING FOR DEFENSE Missionaries are Horribly Mutilated General Nlech Is Dealing Telling JJloiVb to the Enemy American Conference Appeals to tlio Administration. LONDON , June 9. Definite returns regarding the severe fighting between the Chinese troops and the Boxers which was going on Thursday between Tien Tsin and Pekin had not been re ceived at Tien Tsin when the latest telegrams to reach London were filed. The Chinese troops , however , had killed many Boxers , according to some reports , while another account had the government soldiery defeated in an engagement near Pao Ting Fu. Apparently the legation guards have not yet taken a hand in the fighting , but they are ready to do so at a mo ment's notice. The Boxers movement affects some hundreds of square miles. Official dispatches to Vienna from Pe kin aver that the sect is more powerful than any political party in China , em bracing no less than 4,000,000 , and manipulated by zealous and adroit leaders. The powers are acting in entire con cert , which at present gives the Chinese nese- government plenty of chance to put down the disturbances alone. The Tien Tsin correspondent of the Daily Mail , telegraphing June 7 , says : "For the last three uays the whole community of Tien Tsin has been pre paring to defend itself against an ex pected attack by the Boxers. There is a continual influx of refugees from the surrounding country who are now crowding the city. This increases the excitement. Nearly all the villages surrounding the Tien Tsin are joining the Borjers' movement , which is tak ing more and more a fanatical nature. STRIP AND PAINT WOMAN Shameless Sjmputhizerii "With Strikers Outrage Decency. ST. LOUIS , Mo. , June 9.

NE.W YORK , June 9. The anxiety which has been felt in regard to the Presbyterian missionaries in the Pekin district was partially allayed today by the receipt of a cablegram from Dr. John W.

OOM PAUL IS NOW AT MACEDORP Seat of H < ir Government Located in Kallroad Car. LONDON , June 8. 3 a. m. The ex ecutive officers of the Transvaal gov ernment are in a railway car , shunted on a switch at Macedorp station. Pres ident Kruger caused the interior of the coach to be reconstructed some time ago with a view to contingencies that have now arrived. A correspondent of the Daily Ex press , who went from Lourenzo Mar- quez to see President Kruger , was re ceived yesterday The president sat smoking a long pipe. He looked wor ried , but his bearing was quiet and de termined. He did not make the least objection to being interviewed The correspondent was equipped for the interview by cables from London. "Yes , " said President Kruger , "it is quite true that the British have oc cupied Pretoria. This , however , does not end the war. The burghers are fully determined to fight to tht last. They will never surrender so long as 500 armed men remain in the country. I feel deeply encouiaged by the fine work Steyn and DeWet are doing in the Free State. ' Secretary of State Reitz remarked : "You may depend upon it that the Avar is not yet over. Guerilla warfare will continue over an enormous area. We intend to fight to the bitter end shall probably retire on Lydenburg , where we can hold out for many months. " "Yes , " observed Mr. Kruger , "it is only now that the real struggle has begun. I fear that there will still be much bloodshed , but the fault is that of the British government. " Then raising his voice to an almost passion ate height , Mr. Kruger exclaimed : "The time has passed for us to talk. We have done plenty of that , but it has done us no good. The only thing left for us to do is to Keep on fight ing , to keep on fighting. " GOT READY IN FORTY HOURS. Indiana and MasoachuuetlH Figure in Remarkable Experiment. WASHINGTON , June 8. The ex periments with the battleships Indiana and Massachusetts have been a marked success. A telegram received at the navy department today from Admiral Silas Casey , commandant of the League Island navy yard , announced that the two big ships were completely equipped and ready for sea. He said the Indiana would pull out at noon and the Massa chusetts about two hours later for Newport via Hampton Roads. The de lay in the case of the latter ship was not because of any , ack of prepared ness on her part , but simply because the tide would not serve until alter- noon. Thus it appears tnat these two tormida.jle vessels have been made icady for any required service in the 5hort space of about forty hours , with out the slightest notice to the com mandant of the League Island navy yard or the commanders of the two battleships. The result is regarded as a satisfactory vindication of the policy of keeping ships "in ordinary , " recent ly adopted by the navy department. The record made at League Island is about as good as any made abroad , with superior facilities in the latter case. TOWN DESTROYED BY FIRE. Virginia In the Mesaba Iron Range Suf fers a 8GOOOOO IOSH.

In that time fully 125 build ings were reduced to ashes. The main business section of the city is about five blocks from the mill where the fire started and over this intervening territory the flames spread rapidly , car ried directly to the business buildings by a fierce southwest wind.

The St. r.ouls Strike. ST. LOUIS , Mo. , June 8. It is just one month that 3,325 'employes of the St. Louis Transit company struck to secure a recognition of their union and an adjustment of other grievances , and a settlement of their differences does not seem to be in sight.
