London, July 9.—Foreign legations and missionaries in Peking were safe on Wednesday, July 4* and the Chinese had ceased their attacks. This is the report that comes from the consuls at Shanghai.

London, July 9.—Foreign legations and missionaries in Peking were safe on Wednesday, July 4* and the Chinese had ceased their attacks. This is the report that comes from the consuls at Shanghai. The only fear felt in Peking at that time, according to the report, was regarding the food supplies. The Greatest Now York, July 9, 1900. S Senator J. K.
