To this the chief of the expedition agreed. Thereupon a laiffCuumber of natives entered the camp of the expedition on various pretexts and massacred the disarmed members during bivouac. COME!

SOLD A r CA WLBY'S SHOB STORE St. Petersburg advices say the Russian government permits it to become known that its attitude in China will be increasing independence of the concert of the powers. Russia, it is explained, is disposed to attach less value to.joint action since her interests have been fully secured by the successful campaign in Manchuria. Moreover, Russia is not willing to "follow the irreconcilable policy of some of the powers." The expectation is that the Chinese government is about to utilize all its resources of duplicity to. keep the powers occupied with vain negotiations and proposals and the dispatching of notes to gain time until the winter, counting on the rigor of the climate to prevent military operations and allow China to gather her resources for a spring campaign.

Official announcement was made this afternoon that the Philadelphia and Reading Goal and Iron Co will abolish the sliding scale; will pay a ten per cent advance on September wages until April ist, 1901, and thereafter until further notice, and will take up other grievances of its men.

When wounded, Captain Shields was nnable to move. He ordered bis soldiers to fo forward and to leave him, bnt they declined and fought stubbornly until they were overpowered.

SOLD A r CA WLBY'S SHOB STORE St. Petersburg advices say the Russian government permits it to become known that its attitude in China will be increasing independence of the concert of the powers. Russia, it is explained, is disposed to attach less value to.joint action since her interests have been fully secured by the successful campaign in Manchuria. Moreover, Russia is not willing to "follow the irreconcilable policy of some of the powers." The expectation is that the Chinese government is about to utilize all its resources of duplicity to. keep the powers occupied with vain negotiations and proposals and the dispatching of notes to gain time until the winter, counting on the rigor of the climate to prevent military operations and allow China to gather her resources for a spring campaign.
