Tho Atlanta & West Point road had two

tho track and quick work by tho section
wen prevented nny delay to tralllc. Tho
Central of fieorgla also mintalncd a wash
out In South Georgia Friday, but It did
not came nny damage.
It Is many years since the railroads havo
bad to contend with such a s real of
'weather. Itnlii has fallen every day this
month and each day's precipitation seems
to bo greater than that of tho twenty-four
hours preced'ng It. All tracks have been
patrolled with great care, double fores In
some Instances being put on for this work.
Engineers on trains through tho country
affected by heavy rains were given Instruc
tions to run carefully nnd bo on their guard.
Owing to thesfl precautious tralne have been
operated with but llttlo delays. Tho pas
sengers on tho Columbus train, which
missed connection last night nt McDon

The train left Columbus at 5:20 yesterday

-were told that they would have to remain

MACON, (la., Juno 21 Superintendent A.
Gordon Jones of the Southern railway sa'd
of tho wreck:
"It can only be explained ns ono of tho
Inevltablo acts of Ood. It seems that It
was tho result of a terrlllc rain storm or
cloudburst something similar to that which
caused tho Johnstown flood.
"Tho nccldent occurred nt a deep, nar
row creek, which had become no suddenly
nnd so completely filled that the volume
of watcrn reached such weight as to wash
out tho masonry of stono and brick from un
der tho trestle, which spanned tho stream.
Mr. Orlfllth, superintendent of locks, was
on tho engine of tho wrecked train nnd If
thero had been n break In tho track ho or
the engineer or fireman would have scon It.
The masonry supporting tho track must
havo been washed out, leaving tho track
Itself Intact, so tho men. being unconscious
of anything amiss, allowed the train to
rush on tho unsupported track, which ro
eulted In tho fatal crash."
A lato dispatch from McDonough says two

drawn from a dispatch from Austin, Tex.,
yesterday that ho would withdraw from the

to an extract from a letter written by Mr.

Mr. Towno said tonight that thcro was

"You may say, however," continued Mr.
Towne, "that I expect to bo nominated for

of tho people down thero cannot got rid

SOME YANKEE BLOOD SHED
Four Amiricans Wor Killed nd Seven
Wounded At Tien Tsin.
MEN TRAPPED IN CHINESE AMBUSCADE
Admiral KeniulT Reportx the Dlxpnteli
of mi Additional International
Jtellef Force f i:,IIOU to
Tlou Tln.
WASHINGTON. Juno 21. The Navy de
partment this afternoon Lulled the follow
ing bulletin:
"A telegram from Admlrnl Kcmpff, dated
Cho I'oo, June 21, nays: 'lu ambuscade
near Tien Tsin, on tho 21st, four of Waller's
command killed and seven wounded. Nsmoi
will he furnished as bjoii as received.
Forco of 2,000 going to relievo Tien Tslu
today. KKMl'FI'V
"Tho secretary of tho navy haa ordered
Admiral Kemy to go with tho Urooklyn
to Taku and to tender to General Mac
Arthur conveyance of nny army troops
which the Urooklyn can carry."
Admiral Kcmpff's dispatch, giving tho
first deflnlto nuws of tho shedding of Amer
ican blood on Chinese soil came early
this morning and was. turned over to Sec
rotary Long ns soon as ho arrived at the
department. With Admiral Cronlnshlcld
tho secretary carried tho dispatch to the
Whlto House, where, on the president's
roturn from church, It wns laid before him.
The determination thereupon was reached
to order Admiral Ilemy, In command of the
Anlatle squadron, from Manila to Taku on
board of tho armored cruiser Ilrcoklyn. The
secretary and Admiral Crownlnshleld re
turned to tho Navy department, whore the
necessary orders wore dispatched to Ad
miral Remy. Tho effect of this transfer
Is to make Taku tho headquarters of tho
Asiatic squadron. Tho Urooklyn la ex
pected to sail at once, today If possible, as
tho orders sent contemplate gctt.ng tho
nduilral on the scene at tho earlltat mo
ment. The advantage of this. It was offi
cially stated, Is not so much in adding
tho strength of tho Brooklyn to the lleet
already there, ns tho Meet Is considered by
Secretary Long to bo quite adequate, ai It
Is In allowing the authorities hero to doil
directly with tha situation In China Instead
of through tho circuitous communications
by way of Manila. If the Urooklyn starts
today, as expected, It will tako It fully a
week to reach Taku, as the trip Is 2.QQ0
miles and typhoons are raging. Tho de
termination to carry boiiio of General Mac-
Arthur's troops on n llagshlp shows tho
emergency of the situation. The troop
aro believed to bo ready to move, but some
delay may bo caused In ge'.tlng on board
flufllclent supplies for a largo body of men
for a week.
Aiuerlenim Killed nnd Wounded.
Admiral Kempff's report that four Ameri
cans ,wero killed nnd seven wounded In tho
ambuscade .of Waller's force caused tho grav
est concern among ofllclals. but tho chief
fear was as to the outcomo of the second
attack, which tho admiral reported would
begin today. This Is little short of the di
mensions of a battle und Its results may bo
decisive, not only to tho Imtuodlato force
employed, but In determining tho fute of tho
legations and foreign settlements at Tien
Tsin, and also whether tho Issuo Is, or la
not, to bo war with China.
Word reached tho Navy department todny
that the battleship Oregon got away from
Hong Kong Inst night, bound for Taku. This
la two days ahead of her expected start. She
took on 161 sailors and marines, brought to
Hong Kong by tho Zaflro. Tho big ship may
now have n chanco to repeat her celebrated
performance "around the Horn," as she Is
being crowded for a fast run to tho scene of
action. The dlstanco Is about 1,300 miles
nnd. If she makes her record time, sho will
bo at Taku In six days, about the same ttmo
that the Urooklyn arrive from Manila.
These ships nnd the Monadnock are the only
ones going to China,
Admlrnl Crownlnshleld pronounces as un
true tho reports that tho gunbonts Marietta,
Princeton and sevoral other ships at Manila
havo been ordered to Taku. Thoro Is felt to
bo uo need for them and, moreovor, with the
ships now under orders to sail. Admiral
Remey will have a force which Is consid
ered abundantly able to meet overy possible
requirement. Tha Monadnock bna a largo
complement of men, who can bo used as a
landing party, and It la this rather than her
armament which makes her so available at
this time.
Army Heady fr Any KmerKoney.
Tho war branch of tho government Is pre
paring for nny eventuality that may nrlso
out of tho Chinese situation. As statod by
ono of tho highest officers of tho army, tho
scalo of preparation Is of a magnitude which
would both Interest nnd surprise tho public.
Hut, ho added, tho Information would bo of
oven greater Interest and service to nny for
eign foo which tho United States may he
called upon to face within the next few
weeks or months and, for that reason, there
la no purpose to mako public the complete
preparations making to meet whatever Isauo,
arises. All that the ofllclals will sny Is that
both the army and the navy. If the occasion
arise, will glvo a good account of them
selves. Adjutant General Corbln was at his desk
during tho morning nnd nfter going over
tho dispatches went to the Whlto House.
Tho president was about to start for church,
so that thero wns tlmo for only a brief con
sultation. General Corbln said nothing had
been received up to that hour from Gen
eral MacArthur as to the Philippines or
Chinese situation. Ah to the preparations
for China, General Corbln refused to say
anything except that tho report of a brigade
being ordered thero was purely speculative.
'While tho Ilerlln reports ns to tho safety
of Haron Ketteler and tho legations at
Pekln appear to dlspeso of one of tno most
alarming stories of tho crisis. Minister Con
ger, at Pekln, is still cut off from communi
cation hero and there U no direct and offl
clnl assurance of tho safety of tho ministers
nnd legations, nor la there a word of tho
relief force, Including tho Americans, which
sought to break through to Pekln.
Secretary Long returned from an outing
at Hlngham last ulght and today resumed
chargo of affnlrs. relieving Assistant Sec
retary Hackett. Tho secretary looks greatly
refreshed. About tho first nows that reached
him on his arrival was tho fighting nnd
bloodshed of tho Amorlcan marine forced
noar Tien Tsin.
Munndiiuok Will Hot Go.
Later In the day the order contemplating
the sending of the monitor Monadnock to
Taku waa countermanded. Admiral Itomey
reported that the vessel had been stripped
of her officers, presumably for duties on tho
other vessels, and for this nnd other reasons
It was not deemed advisable to send her.
Chief among these roasons Is tho fact that
tho typhoons now raging In the eastern sens
would mako a voyage of such a vessel ns the
Monadnock with her low freo board very un
certain. She would have to bo towed the
greater part of. the dlstanco and this would
delay tho arrival In Chlncso watera of any
other ship which would be sent with her

No further news camo from Admiral
Kcmpff during trie- evening.
The Chinese, aetnnllng to advIcM received
here, are approhonUve ns to the posslblo
effect of the lantllbg' of foreign troopa on
their territory. MtnlMer Wu's advices show
this to bo the case and they are using every
effort to avert such taction because of tho
effect It may have on the people. Today
tho minister received a dispatch from the
viceroy of Hunan and Hupe, the central
provinces In China, on this subject. Tho
viceroy had been In consultation with other
high olllclnla of the empire, as n result of
which they communicated with the Chlneso
representatives in this nnd European coun
tries, directing them to request tho govern
ments Interested not to send further troops
to Tien Tsin whllo the government Is mnk
Ing every effort to suppress tho operations
of tho Iloxers, because of the suspicions and
excitement which such steps would cause
among tho natives. The cablegrams said tho
authorities fear tho consequences of the In
troduction of theso largo bodies of foreign
soldiers nnd hope that It may be stopped.
Minister Wu laid tho matter before the sec
retary of stnto and It will receive tho at
tention of this government.
Wu Wllllntc Hct I1U Life.
Minister Wu characterlzca as ridiculous
the report that tho emprecti dowager had
decreed the extermination of nil the for
eigners lu China. "It Is not true," he said;
"I will bet my life on It. She la too sensi
ble n woman to do such a mad and foolish
thing ns that."
Just now thero appears to bo a lack of
information among the forolgn embassies
and lcgutlona In Washington aa to affairs
lu China, Their homo governments, like
that of tho United States, aro without now3
of a definite character from Pekln and tho
olllclnls hero aro almost entirely dependent
on tho newspapers for what they may learn
respecting nffalra In the east.
The Sixth cavalry, which will nail from
San Kronclsco shortly, will not go directly
to Manila, but will bo taken to Nagasaki,
where orders will be sent based upon the
developments In tho Chlneso situation.

Tho Oniclnl Messenger of St. Petersburg

ing tho courso of events In China and con
cluding ns follows: "It will thus bo seen
that tho Russian troops nro pursuing no ob

view of tho present exciting events, tho
presenco of tho Russian troops In that
friendly stnte can only render un essential
servlco to the Pekln government In Us strug

The St. Petersburg correspondent of the
Dally Telegraph In n dispatch dated Satur
day sends n long statement embodying tho
views of tho Russian foreign otllce, prepnred
by permission of the late Count Muravlefl",
and embodying not only his views, but those
of his successor, Count Lansdorff. This
statement holds that n state of war does
not exist under International law and hence
It Is nosslble to nssumo that the order for
' active military operations at Taku originated
with the provincial authorities and not with
tho Imperial at Pekln. "Llki other nntlous,"
says tho statement, "Russia Is pursuing
