XV FOREIGNERS Allied Forces En Without Seri LEGATIONS RELIEVED The welcome news was received at Washington Friday morning of the capture of Pekin and the rescue of the besieged legationers. The rescue was effected on Wednesday, August 15, the allied force entering Pekin apparently without opposition. The acting, secretary of state made public the following plain telegram re- ceived Friday evening from the United States consul at Che Foo: "CHE Foo, August 17, (Re- ceived August 17, 7:55 p. m.)— Secretary of State, Washington: Seventeenth—Japanese admiral rounded legations. Inmates safe. Japanese loss over 100. Chinese 300. FOWLER." The navy department received the following cablegram from Admiral Bemey: "Taku, August 17, 1 a. m.—Bureau Navigation, Washington: Just received telegram from Tien Tsin dated 16th, 10 p. m.: "'Pekin was captured on August 15th. Foreign legations are safe. Details follow shortly.'" "REMEY." LONDON IS ADVISED. A special dispatch received in London, from Shanghai, says: "The allies entered Pekin August 15th. It is believed that Yuan Shi Kai's troops have gone thence to Shen Si to protect the empress, who, according to reports received by local officials here with Tnan, the imperial household, and the bulk of the army and boxes, left Pekin August 7th for Hsian Fu." EARL LI HEARS NEWS. Li Hung 'Chang, who is at Shanghai, received a telegraphic dispatch announcing that the allied forces entered Pekin Wednesday, August 15th, without opposition. All is quiet in Shanghai and in the Yang Tse valley. GLAD TIDINGS FOR BERLIN. The following received from the German consul at Shanghai was given out by the Berlin foreign office at 1 p.m. Friday: LONDON, August 17.—"The allies have entered Pekin without fighting, the legions are relieved and the foreigners are liberated." The collapse of Chinese resistance is explained in dispatches from Shanghai as being due to the failure of the Chinese to flood the country below Tung Chow. The earth-works connected with the dam at the Pei Ho were unfinished and the canal at Tung Chow was full of water, facilitating boat transport when the allies arrived there. Previous information which has been received in Washington showed that the allied armies took possession on August 12th of Tung Chow, twelve TOWNE TO CHASE HOUSEYELT.

HOW ADVANCE WAS MADE. Chinese General Ma Disappeared During the Fighting at Yang Tsun. Extracts from a long dispatch from Tokyo, Japan, describing the advance of the allied forces from Tien Tsin say General Ma disappeared during the fighting at Yang Tsun; that the immediate advance on Pekin was decided upon at a council of war in which 365 officers took part, held at Yang Tsun, August 2d, and that the advance columns were drawn up in the following order: Japanese, Russians, British, and American. The French contingent was obliged to remain at Yang Tsun on account of its commissariat. miles from Pekin. After a halt of three days for rest and preparation the army attacked the capital. Contrary to the press reports, Consul Fowler's dispatch shows that the attack on the city met with strong resistance. The Japanese force engaged with the advance numbering 10,000 men. The president was overjoyed on hearing the news of the safety of Minister Conger and his associates. He has been hopeful all along that their rescue from the perilous position, in which they have been for so long, would be successfully accomplished. Friday's news confirms that hope and brings a feeling of great relief to him. The German press, while expressing joy at the happy discharge of one part of the program, the papers point out that there is much left to do. The Berliner Post says: "A great thing has been done, but a greater must be done before the allied powers will be satisfied. It remains to obtain redress for attacks upon the legations and other wrongs, particularly the assassination of the Geyman minister, and to install a government which will punish the guilty and give guarantees against a recurrence of similar crimes." The National Zeitung. The Freissinige Zeitung and The Vossiche Zeitung, express themselves in a similar strain. Referring to a number of special dispatches appearing in German papers, which claim that the United States government, now that the members of the foreign legations are relieved, is about to withdraw from the international undertaking, a high official of the German foreign office said: "The Washington government has assured the other powers of its willingness to co-operate in carrying out a joint programme. This assurance has sufficed so far and will continue to suffice in spite of newspaper stories to the contrary." John D. Jackson, United States charge d'affaires in Berlin, when his attention was called to the special, said: "The United States government has acted with the greatest harmony regarding China with Germany from the outset. In fact, up to Pekin the powers are all agreed, but beyond that no agreement has, even been attempted. The future must be left to new diplomatic negotiations." WILL PROTECT NATIVE CHRISTIANS: A cabinet official said that the native Christians in China, said to number several thousand, will be included in any arrangement made between this government and China incident to the cessation of hostilities. At the present stage of the Chinese situation this subject has not yet been seriously discussed by the cabinet, but there is no doubt, according to this member, that the United States is in honor bound to protect them and will secretly look out for their security. It was stated that, while the matter has not been formally considered, the indemnity to be collected by the Unified States will be not only for the families of the victims, but also probably to compensate this government for the expense it has been put to in prosecuting the campaign. ARTIST WILKINSON DEAD. Was On Staff of Atlanta Constitution and Well Known In the South. Ernest Wilkinson, an artist on the staff of the Atlanta Constitution, died Friday morning at 4 o'clock in Afton, Va., of heart failure. Mr. Wilkinson was spending his vacation in the Virginia resort. Ernest Wilkinson was one of the best known newspaper artists of the south. His work had attracted wide attention since he began his sketches and portrait work on the Constitution in 1899. He was born in Atlanta Juro 24th, 1873, and was 27 years of age at the time of his death. CARTER STILL HOPES. His Relatives Working Hard to Secure Pardon From President. Oberlin M. Carter, serving a sentence in the military penitentiary, Leavenworth, has renewed hopes of obtaining pardon. The prisoner was visited Friday by Dr. Carter, of Chicago, his brother, and L. D.

GORDON REPLIES To Resolution of Criticism Adopted By Army of Tennessee. SAYS HE IS SUBJECT TO NO DICTATION Veteran Commander Will Attend Rennlons of Old Soldiers Where and When His Conscience So Inclines. General John B.Gordon, commander of the Confederate Veterans' Association, has replied in a vigorous and independent card to the recent criticism of his participation in the blue and gray reunion in Atlanta, as well as his acceptance of an invitation to attend the annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic in Chicago. Some weeks ago the Army of the Tennessee in session in New Orleans adopted a resolution 'introduced by General Chaleron which, after criticising the fact that he had taken part in the blue and gray reunion, protested against his acceptance of the Grand Army of the Republic invitation. General Gordon Rehmes as follows. "Kirkwood, GA., Aug. 21, 1900. "To the Confederate Association of the Army of Tennessee; "Comrades—A resolution recently adopted by your association at the instance of General Chaleron criticising certain acts or supposed acts of mine entirely escaped my attention at the time of its appearance in the public press, and I have just seen it for the first time. I understand this action of your association to mean a formal and public notice that you disapprove of my participation in the Blue and Gray meeting which recently occurred in Atlanta, and also that it means a formal and public protest by your association against my acceptance of an invitation extended to me by the Grand Army of the Republic and by the executive committee of the citizens of Chicago. "The object of this reply to your resolution, which you failed to send me, is not to call in question the right of your association to criticise any official act of miha which does not meet your approval. I do wish, however, to state, kindly but frankly and plainly, that my own conscience and my own conception of duty must be my guide in the future as in the past. "As to the courteous and cordial invitation of both the Grand Army of the Republic and of the executive committee of Chicago's citizens, I have to state that I greatly appreciated the compliment paid me by that invitation, and the spirit which prompted it. Circumstances, however, rendered it impossible for me to accept, and I so notified the officers and committees nearly two months ago when that invitation first reached me. But in this connection also I wish to say that I must be the judge now and hereafter of the propriety of accepting invitations from any section of the country or any class of my fellow countrymen. "In order that there may be no possible misunderstanding of my position on these and all kindred matters, I repeat that my sole guide must be my own convictions of duty to this whole country, and to the southern people, whose glorious record in all the past, whose traditions, dignity and honor I have endeavored to defend and uphold at all times, in all sections and under all conditions. "In conclusion let it be definitely understood that so long as Providence permits me to speak or labor I shall continue the efforts which I have made for 30 years in the interest of sectional harmony and unity. Whatever I can do will assuredly be done for the truth of history, for justice to the south and to all sections, for the fostering of our oberished memories, for the obliteration of all sectional bitterness and for the settlement of all sectional controversies on a basis consistent with the honor and manhood and the self respect of all.

Viceroy Li Hung Chang Sends Information of the Fall of Pekin. Mr. Wu, the Chinese minister at Washington, received an official cablegram Saturday night announcing the entry of the allied forces into Pekin on the night of the 15th. It was sent by Li Hung Chang and transmitted to Minister Wu by the Chinese minister at London. The text of the dispatch was not given out, but it was explained that the message was a simple announcement from the Chinese government confirmatory of the other advices reporting the fall of the Chinese capital. CONGER CALLS CHINA'S BLUFF CONGER CALLS CHINA'S BLUFF Says Government Instigated and Is Responsible For Trouble. "BOXERS ONLY A PRETENSE" sage of Our Minister. A dispatch to the New York Herald from Pekin, Friday, August 17, via Shanghai, says: Contrary to the agreement of the allied commanders the Russians advanced and occupied the first door of the east gate early in the morning of the 14th (Tuesday), but failed to force the second door. At 2 o'clock on the afternoon of the 14th the British and Americans entered the gate near the Regations and met with only slight resistance. The Japanese met more serious opposition at the upper gate all day. At midnight on the 14th they blew up the gate and entered the city. Many Chinese were killed. The people in the legation were well, but somewhat starved. "They tried to annihilate us the day before you got in. Prince Ching, president of the tsuang il yamen, sent word that his officers had received word to cease firing on us under pain of death. "At 7 o'clock in the evening of the same day the Chinese opened fire and this continued all day. "If the relieving column had not arrived when it did we should probably have succumbed. "The Americans lost seven marines killed and fifteen wounded and one child dead. "The whole movement is purely a governmental one. The boxers are only a pretense, having no guns. "The confidential adviser of the emperor was the leader of the imperial troops. "In eleven days over 2,000 shells fell among us." CONGER'S MESSAGE BEFORE CABINET. The cabinet had before it at Tuesday's meeting a message from Minister Conger, received Monday night. After the meeting the state department made public portions of the dispatch, as follows: "United States Legation, Pekin (no date), via Che Foo, August 20...To Secretary of State, Washington: "Saved. Belief arrived today. Entered city with little trouble. Do not yet know where imperial family is. Except deaths already reported, all Americans alive and well. Desperate efforts made last night to exterminate us. Mitchell, American soldier, and a Russian and Japanese wounded. German killed. Advise Woodward, Chicago; Conger, Des Moines; Sims, Council Bloss; Conger, Passadena; Porter, Paris. "CONGER, It will be observed that the portions given out are extracts from Minister Conger's message. It was stated that these portions cover such features as the government desires to make public at this time. The entire message was before the cabinent and the portion not given out doubtless refers to questions of policy and to Chinese internal affairs, upon which the minister speaks as the adviser of the government, rather than as the medium of communicating actual occurrences. It had been hoped that Minister Conger's advices, as well as those from General Chaffee, would be ample by this time in order to afford the Washington officials full opportunity to deal with the perplexing questions raised by the Chinese disturbances. General Chaffee has not been heard from and the Conger message was not as complete as the authorities here had desired. To Frect Big Furnace.

Declination Is Based on Non-Compliance With Declaration of United States Under Date of August 12. A Washington special says: The cabinet session, Tuesday practically opened the consideration of the momentous questions growing out of the capture of Pekin and the war in China: Until Tuesday's session the absorbing question has been the safety of Minister Conger and the legationers at Pekin. Now, however, that has given place to problems of a more intricate and far-reaching character, touching the very existence of the Chinese empire and the part which the American government is to take in the reconstruction of that country. The meeting was devoted entirely to the Chinese situation. Secretaries Hay and Root, who have been most active in directing affairs, were absent from the city, so that the attendance was comparatively small, the president having with him Secretaries Gage, Hitchcock and Wilson and Postmaster General Smith. Several questions were awniting attention. First of these was the application of Li Hung Chang for the appointment of Minister Conger or some other commissioner to negotiate for the cessation of hostilities. The decision arrived at was to reject the appeal, and a reply of this character will be sent to Minister Wu to be forwarded to Li Hung Chang. The moving cause for this action is that this government is at present very much in the dark as to whether there is any existing government in China. With the capital in the hands of the allies, the emperor and empress dowager fugitives in hiding and the entire governmental fabric paralyzed, there is no evidence of an authority adequate to conduct negotiations and secure results which will be final and binding. It was stated by members of the cabinet that the Chinese establishment, instead of being a government, appears to be an enormous headless affair, without knowledge of what is for its best good and without power, to enforce its wishes. With the recognized ruler in flight, no one seems to know who, if anybody, is directing its affairs. As China is an absolute monarchy, without any legislative branch, the emperor and empress dowager are all-powerful, and practically they are the empire of China. Under the present remarkable conditions the United States will act with caution in what steps it may take toward a solution of the pending problems. In the meantime there is reason to believe that the United States and all the powers interested will keep their armed forces on the ground so that order may be maintained and at least a semblance of stable government brought out of the existing chaos. The reply of this government to the appeal of the vicerroys of Nanking and Hunan that no indignities be offered the emperor and empress dowager is a formal acknowledgement of the receipt of the communication with the satis factory assurance that no indignity would be offered the persons of their majesties. This reply is conceived in the polite language of diplomacy, but it is understood that this does not in any way commit the government to refrain from imposing on the emperor and empress dowager any penalty that subsequently might be decided upon in case that it is proved that they were directly responsible for the recent atrocities. This question of fixing responsibility where it belongs and imposing any punishment that may be deemed fitting has not received any formal consideration as yet. The answer with which the two viceroys' appeal is met accordingly is a diplomatic assurance that the rights of the emperor and empress dowager will be protected, but does not impose any barrier to a proper punishment, such as may be sanctioned by civilized usages for any offense which hereafter may be held to call for an accounting. AWAIT M'KINLEY'S ACTION. Germany Watching the Course of United States Regarding Li's Request. Referring to Li Hung Chang's latest request to Washington for mediation, a high official of the German foreign office at Berlin said to the correspondent of the Associated Press: "Germany is waiting to see what answer the United States will make. If Washington is convinced that Earl Li represents any responsible Chinese movement, it could of course undertake a mediatory role for the establishment of peace; but Germany is confident that, in any case, the United States will not separate themselves from the concert of powers."

DETAILS, HOWEVER, SCANT Admiral Remey Cables That the Allies Began at Once to Bombard the Inner City. From General Cheffee the war department received official confirmation of the fall of Pekin and the rescue of the besieged legioners. The dispatch of the American commander was received Sunday and contained few but details. However, the unconcealed satisfaction with which it was received by the officials indicated the anxiety that has been engendered by his prolonged silence. Chaffee's last communication to the government prior to the receipt of Sunday's advises, was dated August 11th, at Matow, almost thirty miles from Pekin. The explanation of his silence is suggested in advises received by the navy department from Admiral Remey, who, telegraphing from Taku on the 18th, stated that the telegraph line between that point and Pekin was interrupted. The cablegram from Admiral Remey contains some important information not mentioned by General Chaffee. He makes the startling statement on Japanese authority that the inner city of Pekin was being bombarded by the allied forces. Admiral Remey says also that the dowager empress is detained in the inner city by Prince Yungedo. Advices received from the foreign office, Japan, by the Japanese logiation in Washington, confirm and amplify previous accounts of the capture of Pekin by the allied troops. Following is the text of the dispatch from General Chaffee: "Citr Foo, August 19.—Adjutant General, Washington. Pekin, August 15.—We entered logation grounds at 5 o'clock last night with Fourteenth and light battery. Eight wounded during day's fighting. Otherwise all well. CHAFFEE." It is believed that the word "fifteenth" is an error of transmission and should be "sixteenth." All previous advices, official, unofficial, have indicated that the logations were relieved on the evening of the 19th, Wednesday. Admiral Remey's dispatch, which contains much interesting information in a few words, is as follows: "Chz Foo, (no date), Bureau of Navigation, Washington: Taka, August 18.—Telegraph line to Pekin interrupted. Information, Japanese sources, empress dowered detained by Prince Yungedo inner city, which being bombarded by allies. Chaffee reports entered legation grounds evening of 14th. Eight wounded during day's fighting; otherwise all well. The startling feature of the dispatch is that fighting within the city of Pekin was continuing, according to the advises of Admital Retney. The inner, or as it is popularly known, the Forbidden City, evidently had not been taken. It is surrounded by a massive wall of solid masonry more than twenty feet high, and it is not regarded as surprising, that the Chinese should make their final stand within it. A MORE SERIOUS ASPECT. Rear Admiral Bruce's report to the London war office of the continuation of fighting in Pekin puts a more serious aspect on the Chinese situation than was generally expected in England. It appears effectually to dispose of all statements that the empress dowager had fled, although circumstantial accounts of her departure continue to come from Shanghai. Despite defeat, the Chinese are apparently resolved to make a desperate struggle not only in their ancient capital, but also in other parts of the empire. JAPS OCCUPY PALACE. After Entering Pekin They Made Straight For the Imperial Edifice. The Japanese legation at Washington has received several important dispatches. One received Monday says: "After entry into Pekin was effected by the allied troops the Japanese troops on August 15 betook themselves to and remained in the imperial palace." A body of Japanese troops was told to guard the palace and they met with obstinate resistance by the Chinese troops. Fighting is still going on. The headquarters of the Japanese army is in the logation and the division is mainly quartered in the villages outside of Ka-Tiig-Men." : The Savannah Tribune | ee PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY BY THF TRIBUNE PUBLISHING 0, RaGlsTEEmD as HECOND-cLAGS MATTER AT Tua SAVAMEAE Pos?

Alma Johnson to Mr P. Edward Perry. The.brightening of the lights and pealing forth of the wedding march was the signal for all attention, and for a time there was much anxiety to get a good look at the bridal party, which was one of the most graceful recently seen. To the sweet strains of the wedding march the party reached the altar where the bride was met by the groom. This part of the edifice was tastefully festooned with evergreen and an arch tastefully arranged. The impressive Congregational services were conducted by the pastor, Rey. Jno. W. Whittaker, who was assisted by Bishop R. S. Williams, of the C M. E. Church. The bride looked charming in her dress of brocaded silk, trimmed with silk lace and liberty satin, the yoke and sleeves being of ribbon and lace, with a train of one yard and a quarter in length and a bouquet of bridal roses. The scene became more interesting when little Lester B. Johnson, dressed in a white blouse suit, presented the wedding ring. The entrance to the church and the surrounding grounds were crowded with eager ones to witness the services. After the services a reception was held at the home of the bride's parents, 617 Tatnall street. The bride was attended by two maids, Miss M. Alma Rogers of McBean, Ga., and Miss Clara Rogers, and the maid of honor was Miss E. L. Jackson, who was dressed in washable chiffon, trimmed with ruffled ribbon, Vandyke point yoke, ribbon and lace, draped with fichue and carried American roses. The bride's maids wore washable chiffon trimmed with ribbon and lace with tunic fichus. The flower girl was little Melie Chichester, who was dressed in organdie trimmed with ribbon and carried a basket of field roses. The "best man" was Mr. E. J. Robinson, while Messrs. L. S. Reed and Sidney M. Jackson acted as groommen. The ushers were Messrs. Chas. H. Sheftall. Chas. H. Hill, Joseph L. Jackson and Malcom McNichols. After the reception the happy couple were driven to their new home on east Henry street, where they are comfortably settled and well prepared for their future living. The bride is formerly of Augusta but has been in our midst for several years and has made many friends. The groom is one of our most properous and highly esteemed business men, well thought of by his friends. To Organize.

A Washington special says: The Chinese government made formal application Monday through Li Hung Chang as its envoy for the appointment, of an American commissioner to bring about the cessation of hostilities in China and the restoration of general peace. This, coming since the capture of Pekin, is the first showing of China's complete weariness of the struggle and her desire to make terms. The reply of the United States government has not yet been made known. Li Hung Chang's application came to the Chinese minister and was delivered by him to the state department at 10 o'clock Monday morning. Shortly afterward the president was acquainted with China's desires. In the absence of Secretary Hay and Secretary Root, the latter having gone to New York, who save been most active in the Chinese matter, there was no opportunity for a cabinet meeting. The application of Li Hung Chang is that Minister Conger or some other official be named commissioner to negotiate for a cessation of hostilities, Earl Li expresses a willingness to go where the powers may desire to conduct the negotiations, and it is expected that this will be either Pekin or Tien Tein. In that event the negotiations will occur on what is practically conquered territory. The suggestion of the Chinese envoy that Minister Conger be named as the American commissioner is said to be due to the fact that as Mr. Conger is now relieved from personal danger at Pekin he is free to conduct the negotiations and has the advantage of being on the spot. The application to the United States is understood to be similar to that made to other powers. Under these circumstances it is probable that there will be a conference in order that the powers may act in unison. As to this, however, there is no official announcement for Li Huung Chang's application has barely had time to get before the president and his advisors. Another, important development is that two of the influential viceroyos of China had made application to the powers, including, it is believed, the United States, that no disrespect be shown to the emperor and empress dowager of China. It is understood that the government is informed that at least one of the powers is prepared to answer that there will be no personal indignity or disrespect to their majesties. The condition inside the city was made more clear by a dispatch from Admiral Remey, giving authentic reports from one of his staff officers, Lieutenant Latimer, as to the situation on the 15th. It spoke of the troops "moving on the Imperial city" and "clearing out the Tartar city." This latter city contains the Tarter arsenal and is the headquarters for the vicious Tartar troops. It is said at the war department that the reports of continued fighting, in Pekin indicate that the allied forces found a state of anarchy in the city, with many disorderly people and no method of controlling them. This especially would be the case if the reported flight of the empress dowager and emperor is true. Consequently it has been found necessary for the troops to restore order in the city and carry out the instructions under which our forces are acting. Plague Rages In Manila.

General McArthur approved the sentence and designated Bibilid prison, Manila, as the place of confinement. CORRALING CHINAMEN. Unless They Can Show Regulation Papers They Must Get Out.

The now Japanese stamp issued in commemoration of the recent marriage of the Prince Imperial are now reaching this country. In the oval frame of the stamp is a picture of the Japanese marriage table, which takes the place of the Christian altar on such occasions. The table is decorated with bamboo stalks and plum twigs and blossoms, and at each corner rises a spray of pine. The pine and the bamboo being evergreens, represent that in which there is neither variability nor shadow of turning; the plum, on the other hand, stands for that which buds, blossoms and fruits for the good of man. The decorations of the paper table cover are the crane and the tortoise; of these the bird is symbolic of one thousand years and the turtle of ten thousand years. Here sit the bride and bridegroom and pass each other cups of saki to the number of nine, and so they are married, for the nine drinks together symbolize the perfect Japanese marriage. The legend in Japanese sets forth the names of the imperial bridegroom and his bride and the date of the wedding.—Collier's Weekly. An Advantage In Being Short Colonel Burn-Murdock, who is now in South Africa in command of the "Kaiser's Own," owes his life to his short stature. When the square was broken at Abu Klea, Colonel Burn-Murdock was standing by the side of two other officers, both taller than he. The onrushing dervishes fired a volley, and, unhappily, both of his tall neighbors fell shot through the head, while Colonel Burn-Murdock was hit in the helmet. That helmet is now in the ancestral hall. To Cure a Cold In One Day. Take LAKATINE BROMO QUININE TABLETS. All drugs refund the money if it fails to cure. E. W. GROVES's signature is on each box. 230.

The more important of the two eggs is an unrecorded one from a French collection, and is described as the finest specimen known of a special type of marking. The price just obtained for it establishes a record, $1,600 having been, until this sale, the highest amount ever received. About seventy-five eggs of the Great Auk are known be in existence. The Gare Fowl, or Great Auk, was a bird about the size of the domestic goose, but with abnormally small wings, formerly abundant in Newfoundland, and is a visitor to Iceland and to some of the Scottish Isles. It is now extinct, the last specimen probably having been hunted down for museums about sixty years ago.
