News from I'ekm is still nnob
tainable and the worst fears pre
vail regarding the fate of the win
isters and foreigners iu China's
capital. News from Chinese sources
reports the ministers safe but this
is discredited because no word is
a'lowed to come through from the
ministers themselves. The skua
tiou is an enigma and genera
apprehension prevails as to what
will ba revealed when the firs
authentic news is received from
that silent and isolated citv.
One by one the honest republi
can leaders those who have con
scientiously sought to disseminate
the principles for which that party
at one time stood are leaving the
present organization and identi
fyiDg themselves with those who
now stand for the perpetuity o
oar government on the princi
pies enunciated by the fathers
The most recent one to take this
step is Dr. W. L. Habercomb
manager of the German bureau o
the national republican committee
and of the republican congressional
committee. He has issned
a signed statement denouncing
the republican policies of imperi
alism and militarism and endors
iag the Kansas City platform and
ticket. He will work for its sue
cess.

Osage Tribe Decreasing.
The Osaee Indians have been
counted by the census enumera
tors and it is found that they are
on the decrease. The census enu
merators are not at liberty to give
out the count but it is said that
the Indians are not nearly so num
erous as they were a few years ago
Many of the old men and squaws
have died while very few have
been born. The Osages are the
richest tribe in the United States
Intermarrying is said to be the main
reason that race is on the decline
Many of the old Indians refused to
give answers to the census men.
The end m South Africa is not
yet. It seems that the British
military experts who a few days
ago predicted that the war would
not end for two years more had
something more than mere con-
jecture as a basis for their calcula-
tions. Wednesday Botha made an
attack on a British position within
eignieen nines oi rretona and
captured two heavy guns and more
than 200 men. The British casu

Washington Feara When the Veil Is
Raised From China Humanity
Will Stand Aghast.:
Washington July 14. The
news from China or more prop-
erly speaking the lack of news
is causing the greatest appre-
hension in official circles. Few
people here believe that the for-
eign Ministers escaped assassin-
ation and very little is expected
to come of the attempt of Minis
ter Wu Ting Fang to get a mes
sage to Minister Conger.
The government however
cannot tell just what js 'neces-
sary until more definite news is
had from Pekin. The informa
tion received up to date is; so
vague and is so probably of 'a'
Chinese origin that the officials
here are utterly at sea.
It is believed whin the tragic
mystery of Pekin is;unveuea
that civilization will receive a
great shock which will move
the world to vengeance.
The fears with regard to the
fate of the ministers are increas
ed and aggravated by the possi
bility of an unspeakable catas
trophe to the allied forces at
Tien Tsin. It appears that they
are so completely impounded
that escape is impossible and
they are liable to be annihilated
before a relieving force of suf
ficient strength can reach them.
The allied nations are greatly
hampered by not knowing the
extent of the Boxer insurrection
if it is an insurrection not the
real relations existing between
Prince Tuan and the Chinese
government. Neither is it
known just how formidable the
Boxer army is. Some officials
are inclined to believe that the
yellow hordes of interior China
have at last arisen to challenge
the world and that the nations
will sooner or laiter learn of con
ditions that will require the
presence in China of hundreds
of thousands of troops instead
of the few paltry regiments now
on the ground.
In this connection there is
much talk in Washington as to
the part which this country will
be called upon to play in the
event of a great yellow war. It
is very certain that at present
the United States caD spare few
men for service in China. Gen.
MacArthur has already informed
the war department that no
more can well be spared from the
Philippines. The few regiments
which can be sent from this
country may prove totally inade
quate to lperform Uncle Sam's
share of the work.
The possibility that congress
may be called together to provide
more men and money for the in-
vasion of China is already appar
ent to the officials.
The president is in coustant
touch with the state war and
navy departments and if it de
velops later that China is really
at war with the world or that
a
vast yellow insurrection is on
with which the present forces
cannot cope he will lose no time
in convoking congress for the
purpose of dealing with the sit
uation according to its exigen
cies.
The air is full of doubt now as
to what will be done because
nobody knows what has beri
done or what is being done in
China. There seems to be noth
irrg more than the belief that
Minister Conger and other for
eign ministers and their secre
taries attaches and their families
have all been murdered.
Congressman here are inclined
to look for a special sessioD soon
