This dispatch from its special correspondent is published by the Daily Mail: "Shanghai Thursday. I have no hesitation in stating that crimes, in-; eluding.

In fact, it may be almost taken for granted that the whole 'foreign quarter of Peking hasbeen completely wiped out. "There are whisperings and startling and sensational rumors which are noauag arounu wjtnout apparent re hiabie sources in the native Quarters; but it must Tiot be forgotten that the Imperial telegraphs, over which alone news can come from Peking, are solely the hands of the Chinese, and that the whisperings, and rumors in the native quarters arc at least likely to have some solid basis of face "I would hesitate to send this, last reliable news from Peking that tic Europeans have had case, as 1 cabled yesterday; from Sir Robert Hart by a carrier, dispatched on June 25, on were It aot that I find some Chinese at officials hare, who show friendliness to Europeans, who have had to sr knowledge advices from Peking, via withla the last hours and are most anxious, we shoald understand that the Governmeat of.

In a note on the above dispatch, the Daily Mail says that its special correspondent at Shanghai is a gentleman of distinction with unequalled sources of information, and add: "It is obvious from the message that the correspondent has the best' of reasons for believing that news of the greatest Importance Is being suppressed by the native authorities. There is, we fear, only too much reason for the correspondent's suggestion that the greatest tragedy of the century has been consummated." JOHN RUSSELL YOUNG ON CHINA'S IMMENSITY. Attacking the Chinese Nation, Wrote Former Minister, Is Like Macerating the Waves. NEW YORK, July S. The late John Russell Young, who accompanied General Grant in his trip around the world and who was Minister to China during Grant's administration, in a letter to the New York Herald, September, 1S94, wrote the following, which, in the light of recent evencs, reads like a prophecy: "Remember that the Chinese are not an 'enthusiastic people.' Their hearts are not 'easily fired.' They are not prone to outbursts, of public emotion. China moves as the glacier than as the volcano or cyclone. But she moves. You may defeat her to-day, you may defeat her to-morrow you may bombard her Taku forts; you may even-land an army and, marching over the low, alluvial, fertile lands of China, spring upon Peking. What then? You have no more gained the country tndii by the capture of Boston you woaM gain the United States. It is like macerating the waves. You may cut and slash and stab. The billows w'll swirl up and rojl. It is war upon an impalpable enemy as if assailing the air of the clouds." SHIKESE SNELL THE ' ALLIES FORCES Lively Work for Tien-Tsin.

At the bridge near the French settlement there was hard fighting at close quarters, the Russians with a gatling finally compelling the Chinese to retire, though they suffered heavily. The operations, however, were in no way decisive, later messages showing the Chinese were still full of fight. About 500 men have been wounded In the fighting at Tientsin. FRIGHTFUL HORRORS ARE YET TO BE TOLD. WASHINGTON, July S. Mr. W. W. Rockhill, " director of the Bureau of American Republics, who served in China as secretary of legation when the late John Russell Young was there as Minister, and who is a recognized authority in Chinese matters, spoke feelingly to-night of the indignities which foreigners in Peking are reported to have suffered after capture. "This is something new in the history of China," he said. "Foreigners have never before been publicly "executed, and we can only by analogy imagine what has happened to foreign women and children in Peking. We know that In the civil wars of China the greatest barbarity was practiced, and it has been the knowledge of what might be expected which has given rise to the conquered party putting to death its women and chlldfeSTbefore surrendering. "No doubt the dispatch tells but a small portion of the horrors of the-spectacle in Peking. It was only a matter of time, any way, and what followed was the common practice of barbaric and half civilized nations. Had they been merely imprisoned their condition would have been pitiable enough. Anyone who has read of the capture of and the tortures imposed on Lord Loch and Sir Harry Parkes, In 1860, and who knows the Chinese prisons, have not been improved in the last forty years, can appreciate In pari the sufferings which foreign residents in Peking must have endured in the last month. "There Is little use in trying to portray what indignities were heaped upon the victims before death released them. Without question they were horrible beyond the imagination of civilized man. Their captors add to the cruelty of the American Indian the demoniac ingenuity of a race that Is almost civilized, a race which appropriates the arts of white men without appreciating them. The tale which comes from Peking when entrance k gained by foreign troops will be one nnequaledIn shuddeY forcing qualities since the days of the Sepoy rebellion." Holding' Back ICsaionarie.
