7 THE NEW COMPLICATIONS , ARISING FROM ATTITUDE OF RUSSIA AND GERMANY TO CHINA CLOSE ON A DECLARATION OF WAR W. W. Rockhill Sent a Special Commis sioner to China-No Compact by Our Government With European Nations Repetition of Chinese Rumor of Safety of the Legations Russian Informa tion That They Were Massacred July (Ith Russians Charged with Great Barbarity. Washington, July 19. In -the absence of direct news from China this morn ing, attention was directed mainly to the more or less speculative stories emanating: from European capitals in dicative of discord among: the powers. It Is realized that these little bulletins of mutual suspicion always character ize allied movements and eo are to be expected in the present case. It can be stated that, so far as official record discloses, there is absolutely no ground or them. Our government having; fully defin ed its intentions in Secretary Hay's note of July 3rd, the other governments interested in the Chinese situation have entered into the spirit of that declara tion of principles with perfect accord. At least that is the record, both writ ten and oral, and Russia, a power more than any other under suspicion in these stories, has not been backward in as suring the state department of the co incidence of Secretary Hay's declara tion with Russia's purpose in China. It is, of course, possible that some of the powers are swayed by motives' that do not appear in their formal dec larations. The state department, however, cannot go behind their form al expression and can now only await results. There is not the slightest disposition on the part of our (government to fol low the example of certain European powers and restrict in any measure the Chinese minister here, Mr. Wu, in com municating with the Chinese viceroys, and whatever remains of the titular Chinese government. On the contrary crediting the minister with an earnest desire to do everything In his power to protect foreigners in tthe Chinese empire, and confident that he has no sympathy with the insurrectionary Boxer element, the state department regards it as good policy to facilitate, rather than obstruct, his communica tions with the Chinese viceroys. Act ing itself on this theory, the depart ment does not credit the stories that any of the Chinese ministers in Europe have been given their passports If there should be a declaration of war .by 'Russia, based on what is said to fiiave occurred on the Siberian bor der, the technical relations .of the allied powers towards .China might, it is said here, undergo a .radical change. It is believed that the story of jBoxer ac tivity is considerably exaggerated so far as it relates to the country north of the Siberian border, and it is hoped that the troubles have been confined to Manchuria. But if war should ac tually and formally open between Rus sia and China, that fact anight oblige The other powers to do one of two things; either join in the declaration of war, or withdraw their forces from Chinese soil. Minister Wu and Mr. Wollant, the Russian charge, again called upon Secretary Hay this morning, but neith er had news from China. Developments in the military situa tion today were the formal designation of Brigadier General Chaffee as a ma jor general of volunteers and the mak ing of other arrangements for a pro lansred oamoaim on a large scale in rhina tiip officials hope that it will be short, but they are preparing to send coal and winter clothing, so they are getting ready for the other contm gency. SPECIAL. COMMISSION TO .CHINA. W. W. Rockhill, director of the bu reau of American republics, has been aPDointed special commissioner from this country to go to China and inves tigate and report on the situation. For some reason the officials did not care to have it known that Mr. Rock hill had been selected for this responsi ble duty. Within a week he will have a final conference with the president and Secretary Hay and then will leave for China. He probably will go to v an couver and there take the Japanese line steamer for Yokohama, proceed insr from that point to Shanghai. Not until hf arrives at Shanghai will Mr. J Rockhill undertake to outline his fur- tner course . xxis posii.iuii i x vcvumu one. He is actually an ambassador In nower. and in the scope of his func tions will be akin to Piesident Cleve land's nam mount commissioner to Hawaii. Mr. Blount. NO COMPACT WITH FOREIGN POWERS. Inauiry at the state department de veloped the fact that no such circular as that' described in the Rome dis patch as havinsr been received from M. del Casse had reached here. While our government and that at Paris ap pear to be pursuing exactly the same line of policy as to China, and conse quently are moving toward the com mon objects without friction, it has not been deemed necessary or expe dient to attempt to reduce to form and substance an agreement upon which common action should be had. The statement is equally true as to Ger many and other powers. Our govern ment . has not found it politic to em bark upon any joint formal programme beyond the matters toucnea upon in the identical note of July 3rd, definin the objects of the united States in China. In French official quarters here the Rome report is denied with equal pos itiveness. Mr. Hay and M. Thiebaut have discussed a number of the details constantly arising, but it can be stated positively that at no time has any thing like a circular from M del Casse, proposing an agreement of the powers as to China been presented. Just at nrespnt there are no negotiations of soecial importance under eonsMera EZSbZWtZSZ SEEK in2r? reVnonse from the United insr any response from States to a circular note, OUR CASUALTIES) AT TIEN TSIN The navy department this afternoon received from Admiral Remey a list of casualties of the marine corps in the fight at Tien Tsin.

The letter vvas brought by a special messenger a Chinese, who left Pekin Junlv 1st. and managed to .make the journey with great difficulty. The substance of the letter is as follows: " The situation at Pekin Is extreme ly critical. The foreign legations are surrounded on all sides by Chinese soldiers and bombarded night and day. The members of the legations, the gifards and residents, are resting to" the utmost, but the overwhelming numbers of the enemy make opposi tion hopeless; our ammunition is being exhausted, our lives are in such danger that we may be massacred at any mo ment. We earnestly request the im mediate dispatch of re-enforcements for our rescu from our . precarious condition. " The Japanese consul at Che Foo adds that he communicated this letter to his colleagues of the consular body there and also to the commander in chief of the forces of the powers. Another cablegram received hre through the foreign office ifrom Japan's consul at Che Foo reports that Tien Tsin castle was captured by the forces of the allies on the 14th and the safety of the foreign settlements Is assured.

The following ad ditional details of the allied forces' at tack on the native city of Tien Tsin reaches here today from the Associated Prress correspondent with the allies: Tien Tsin, Friday, July 13. Midnight Via Che Foo, July 16 After a day of hard fighting, and having lain for hours In shallow, hastily-dug trenches full of water, and suffering from hun ger and thirst, two battalions of the Ninth U. S. infantry that participated in the attack on Tien Tsin retired un der cover of darkness, British sailors assisting them to withdraw by firing volleys to cover their retirement. The Americans brought out all their wound ed under a terrific fire. An official list of the officers wounded is as follows: Ninth Infantry Major Reagan, Cap tains Bookmiller and Noyes, Lieuten ants Lawton and Lang. ANOTHER REPORT OF SAFETY OF LEGATIONS. Paris, July 19. An official telegram from Shanghai, dated Wednlay, July 18th, states that, according to the gov ernor of Shan Tung, the foreign minis ters and their families at Pekin are safe and sound, but that the danger is still very great. The viceroy, accord ing to this dispatch, informed the con sular corps that he had telegraphed to Pekin urging the protection of the foreign legations. RUSSIA'S DECLARATION OF WAR. London, July 19. The action of Count von Buerowr. the German minister oi foreign affairs, 'in informing the Chi nese legation at Berlin that all tele- raphic messages must be in plain language and submitted for approval by the censor, and the suggestion of M. del Casse, the French minister of foreign affairs, that the exportation of arms to Cttiina ibe prohibited, which are generally regarded here as long steps in the direction of treating China as a state engaged in war, have been supplemented this morning by the offi cial announcement from St. Petersburg that certain portions of .the Amur ter ritory, including parts of the Khaba rovsk district and the coast territory, as wen as the towns or ttJiagoesicn ensk, Khabarovsk and Nikolskussuri r g m r Af m A druggist in Macon, Ga., says: 44 1 have soid a Ur?2 quantity of Mother's Friend, and never known an in stance where it has fr.!td to produce the good r."u:r claimed for it.

Russia's announcement is regarded, In London as at least foreshadowing a speedy unconditional recognition of tne fact that a condition of war exijsts between China and the civilized world, and the general opinion seems ,to favor such recognition as the best means of meeting .the tbarbarian upheaval, while at the game time endeavoring jto Isolate the independent -viceroys Crom the gen eral conflagration.

A dispatch from Shanghai received here today reports that the losses of the Chinese in the fighting at Tien Tsin was .upwards of 3.000. It is understood that Lieutenant General Sir Francis Grenfell will have command of the British forces in China. LI HUNG CHANG AT HONG KONG Hone Kone. Wednesday. July 18. Li Hung Chang and his suite, arrived here yesterday evening and landed this mo miner. He was received with a salute of seventeen guns and with a guard of honor from the Welsh Fusil iers and band and proceeded to the government house. Li Hung Chang was extremely ret- ippnt. Hp stated that he had receiv ed definite news that the ministers and foreremers at Pekin. with the excep tion of Baron vonKetteler, the German minister, were safe July 8th. The im perial edict recalling him to Pekin, the viceorv said, was due to tne empress and the emperor and not to Prince Tuan. The eovernor of Canton is regarded as an exceptionally weak official, and the natives fear he will never succeed in maintaining order. ' A transport with .a portion of the Bengal Lancers, a native field hospital, and Generals Gazelee and 'Barrow have proceeded to Taku. The deck protected cruiser Dido has gone to Woo Sung. w mi mrm-m London, July 20, 4 p. m. rne vvasn ington idea of sending Mr. Rockhill to China," says The Standard editorially this morning, "is an excellent one and might advantageously be imitated by the British and other governments." The Chinese assertions that the mem bers of the foreign legation are still safe have been so often repeated that they are again beginning to raise hopes in some quarters. According to The Daiiv TeleerraDh's St. Petersburg cor respondent, however, the Russian gov ernment is already in possession or definite news that ajl the foreigners In Pekin were massacred on July 6th. Del Casse's circular only goes to prove that, so far, the powers have failed to arrive at any concerted plan of action. Very little further news is available this morning. The Yokohama corre spondent of The Daily Mail, who re peats his statements regarding the jealousy felt among the allies on the subject of a Japanese commander-in-chief, and the general lack of unity among them, adds: "The Japanese correspondents charge the Russian soldiers aith appalling barbarity to ward the Chinese. They declare tnat the Pei Ho is full of corpses of women and children and that the Russians loaded 30Q bodies on a junk and burned them." It is stated that when the allies en tered the native city of Tien Tsin they found the Chinese dead piled breast high and it was feared that this would rpsult in an outbreak of Destilence. Sixteen of the captured guns are quite modern weapons. This correspondent confirms the statement of the correspondent of The Daily Express regarding the indigna tion caused by the British reception or Li Hurier Chaner at Hone: Kong. He savs it is interpreted bv the natives as weakness on the part of the allies and he asks why Li Hung .Chang could not have been determined until Infor mation had been received from Pekin. RUSSIANS REPULSED. The Daily Express publishes the following from Che Foo dated yester day. The Russians are hard pressed around Niu Chawang and have been expelled from Tien. Chawang Tai. They have also "been compelled, to aban don Tishichau by a large body of Box ers and armed peasants. Mere again. The Russians lost heavily, but it Is reported that they succeeded Jn killing TOO of their assailants. The Russians, according, to the latest news from St Petersburg, have now completely defeated the Chinese and have occupied Blagovestchensk, capi tal of the Amur government, witn a large tfbrce. The Daily Mail Shanghai correspon dent says: Advices from Vladivosterk state that the Chinese invasion or eastern Siberia has stopped the Rus sian advance from the north on Pekin. The Russians have burned the Chi nese town of Helampo and are adopt ing very vigorous measures. SHE MARRIED A NEGRO Death of a Boston Woman Who Was Once a Social Leader. (Special to Baltimore Sun.) New York, July 18. In a miserable rear room up one flight of stairs in a tenement occupied by negroes in West Twentieth street, Mrs. Martha Mar tini, wife of a negro waiter, once one of the Folsoms, of Boston, and a belle In the famous Back Bay set, died of the heat on Monday afternoon. Her body was sent away to wealthy and fashionable relatives. Mrs. Martini was a half-sister of Paul Folsom, a wealthy scion of the old Boston Folsom family. When about 20 years old she incurred her father's displeasure by marrying Edward Cut ter, a wealthy dealer in chemicals. Then her father forgave her. Cutter prospered and for four years he and his wife had an annual income of $13,000. Then misfortune came and Cut ter's wealth dwindled. About 1890 Cut ter died, leaving his widow penniless. She got a place as a housekeeper in the house of Rufus ' Waterman, a wealthy Providence man. In that house hold Alexander Martini, a negro, was employed as butler. An attachment grew up between the couple and they were married in 1891 and left the place for this city. The life that followed was often one of bitter hardship. Mrs. Mar tini's half-brother, learning of her plight, sent her $150 a month until she died. The Neeley Extradition Case. New York. July 19.

SOUTHERN INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE Tables Address of Its Committee on Southern Commercial Conditions Be cause of Its Endorsement of Repub lican Party Principles. Atlanta, Ga., July 19. At the second day's session of the Southern Indus trial convention here, the public ad dress on the commercial conditions of the south, prepared by a special com mittee, was rejected after a heated discussion. The delegates held that the address was an endorsement of the republican platform In many particu lars, and did not think politics should enter Into their organization. D. A. Tompkins, of North Carolina, spoke In opposition to the clauses en dorsing the political currency system and relating to the protection of American labor. B. W. Blackburn, of Atlanta, said the address was a direct endorsement of the republican platform. "If this address is stampd with approval from this convention," he said, "you place a bludgeon in the hands of Hanna "and his campaign committee to wield over the heads of this section." C. E. Sanders and R. L. Bennett, both of Mississippi, opposed the ad dress. Mr. Tompkins said if there was any thing good in the address it should be adopted without . regard to politics. L. L. Gilhert, of Atlanta, moved that a committee -of seven be appointed to draw up a new address on industrial lines instead of political lines. The motion was adopted. The organization committee will con sider the following resolution from Mr. Fro well, of South Carolina: Resolved, That the Southern Indus trial League should be formed all over the south, in every county and town, with the purpose of developing our resources, and that a committee of three from each state be appointed by this league to take the matter up and get the leagues in working order by the next convention." The convention, after hearing sev eral addresses on Industrial subjects, adjourned until 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. CULTON STILL ON THE STAND He Brines Out More Evidence or Con spiracy Other Witnesses. Georgetown, Ky., July 19. Today's session of the trial of Caleb Powers, charged 'r;th complicity in the Goebel shooting, started off with a long de bate before the court on the admissi bility of matters transpiring between the date of the shooting of Goebel and his death. The point was made by a question put by the prosecution to Witness Cul- ton regarding a conversation between him and Henry Youtsey before Goebel died. The court ruled that this evi dence must be excluded. After the assassination Culton said Powers came to him and told him to write to the parties who were in the Conference and tell them they had bet ter be very careful and do no talking, as they were liable to be connected with the murder. Witness told him it would be uangerous to write and Pow ers said he would do it himself. The prosecution produced a box of cart ridges for the witness to Inspect. Cul ton said the cartridges were like those Youtsey showed him when talking about the killing of Goebel. Powers gave the witness badges for the moun tain men who remained in Frankfort so they could distinguish their own men from others. Culton declared that while in jail with Powers at Frankfort Powers begged him not to go on the witness stand in the hearing of his (Culton's) motion for bail. Witness told Powers he wanted to get bai as his family needed him. Powers told him he would see to it, that his family was provided for if witness would agree not to go on the stand. Witness refused. The witness was asked by Mr. Owens for the defense about visiting Colonel Campbell and others of the prosecu tion. He denied that he had been promised immunity. In becoming a witness in the Powers case he was fol lowing the advice of his father, Judge Culton. A number of questions were asked by the defense to. show that Culton's evi dence now is at variance with that given in his application for bail at Frankfort. Silas Jones, of Whiteley county, who went with the mountaineers to Frank fort and remained there till after the assassination, said he was in the ex ecutive building when the shooting oc curred. The shots sounded to him from the secretary of state's office. Prior to the shooting, witness said he was in Taylor'ts office. The governor asked him why he was not in the house lobby. Witness replied that he did not want to go up there, as he was not armed. The governor asked with an oath why he had come there without arms and said he had as well go home. George G. Fetter, of Louisville, tes tified that he was entering the state house yard when Goebel was shot. He could not tell where the first shot was fired from, but was positive that sub sequent shots were fired inside the main hallway of the executive build ing. Atlanta Reunion. Atlanta, Ga., July 19. Five thousand members of the GTand Army of the Republic and the United Confederate Veterans lustily cheered the comman ders of these two organizations, Gen eral Albert E. Shaw, and General John B. Gordon, as they set together upon the stage of the Grand opera house at the kindKng of the camp fire of the blue and pray reunion here tonight. The occasion was the formal beginning of the reunion of the surviving veter ans of the union and the confederate armies who .fought In the battlee around Atlanta, in July 1864. The au ditorium of the theatre was filled with the veterans who mingled in frater nal peace and cheered the battle tunes of "Dixie" and "Yankee Doodle" with enthusiasm. Upon the stage were seated distinguished soldiers, many of them commanding officers in the dif ferent engagements Over the heads of those on the stage the United States flag and that of the Confederate States were draped together, typifying the sentiment of the camp fire.
