June 2(5.-1 :2S p. m.-The ex clusive dispatch of tho Associated Prcsj from Chcfoo giving Rear Admiral Kcmpff's authoritative announcement of the relief ot lien Tain June 23 remained for hours tho sole news of this occurrence of world-wUe iruportance. At about 1 o'clock tfco Hong Kong and Shanghai bank's L-ondcn tranches received confirmation of the nin nnri ,i about tho samo time Mr. Dawson, a dele rate from Singapore to tho congress of ths Association of Chambers of Cmmcrcs of the Uulted Kingdom, now in session here, Informed his fellow delegates, nmld loud cheering, that ho had Just received n dis patch from his ion announcing tho relief ot Tien Tsln. Tho news reached Berlin later from the German consul at Chefoo, who announced that the relief column entered Tien Tsm during tho afternoon of June 23 and started agcln, June 21, to rcscuo Vice Admiral S niour, who, with tho foreign minister!, was cald to bo occupying n position twelve and a half miles from Tlon Tsln, whero he was surrounded and hard pressed by a great force of "Boxers" and Chinese regulars. Posbtbly tho Japanese report that Seymour Is u prisoner and that tho ministers had loit Pekln guarded by Chinese soldi rs Is mcrsly n distorted version of tho Berlin s:ory. But In uny event deflnlto news may bs ox pected speedily and It Is confidently believed here that Soymour and his companions will bo safely delivered from their plight. According to tho report of a Chinaman refugee who has arrived at Shanghil tha condition ot Tien Tsln Is horrible. Kvery whero In tho streets are tho bodle3 of mas sacred men and women, Americans as well ns other nationalities. Tho Hong Koni and German banks, ho adds, were both de stroyed early during tho bombardment.

A telegram from the governor of L'ai Chou, dated June 25. which has reached Berlin, announces that according to reports from Chinese sources Vice Admiral Soy mour's force has reached Pekln.

Vlco Chairman Kd mlstcu of tho populist nntlonal committee tonight gave out the text of a letter he Is sending to delegates to the democratic na tional convention. Mr. Edmlsten strongly urges tho nomination of Charles A. Towne fur vico president at Kansas City and de clares his selection esjentlal to complete harmony of the three partlea. Tho letter says In part: "If Mr. Towne Is nominated by the demo cratic convention as their candidate for th; vlco presidency it will bo tho Btrongcat ticket of the people and would assure the hupport of tho people's party and silver republicans for the ticket for Bryan nnd Towne. To fall to do this Is taking a course tho result ot which we do not know." Mr. Edmlsten rays Mr. Towno would be stronger In New York than Governor Rocoe vclt. Ho concludes: "The question now Is. What Is for tho best? If It were truo wo had but one party organization, then all would bo settled. If It were true thnt tho dfmocrntlc party could win alone, then It would be useless to consider any other prop osition than for that party to make a straight nomination. In the central west there can be no doubt but Mr. Towne will bo a very strong candidate nnd will assist in bringing much strength to the ticket." Itenoinlnilteil for ('onre. MANKATO, Minn., Juno 2ti.
