LONDON, Aug. Tsin this morning, 11:10 a. m. today. It is assumed that the Americans, British and Japanese are taking part in this forward movement, whether other nationalities are ornot. An advance base will probably be established 20 or 30 miles nearer Pekin, and supplies will be assembled preparatory to. a direct stroke at the capital. Of the 60,000 allies debarked at PeChi-Li ports, English mili: tary observers consider that 30,000 are available for an advance beyond Tien Tsin. The Chinese forces, according to the vague gatherings of the allies’ intelligence officers, up to July 27, were doses in a great are 30 miles long and distant 10 or 15 miles. The numbers and exact location of the several divisions: are utterly unknown. The Pei Ho River is blockaded by sunken ston®- laden junks for 20 miles beyond Tien Tsin, and farther up, accord- ing to Chinese spies of the allies, a dam has been constructed for the purpose of flooding the low lying expanse of country.

All subsequent accounts of China’s government repudiate such a declaration. The Emperor's request to the United States, France, Germany and Great Britain for me- diation was meade four weeks after the alleged declaration of war. Such a request could not have been made of a nation with which he was at war. There is no doubt that the foreigners in Pekin think that China is at war with the powers and that a formal vie enn has been made. ee MINISTERS HELD AS PAWNS AT PEKIN ecBeea eve ete eee cone . e-«-+-« °4 at Broad- was coniined Was to Siu- About herself Is minutes before Mrs. O'Day shot Monday she entered a heg- dressing establishment on Sixth street and left with the proprietress a box of cartridges , from which two had been taken. | The hairdresser savs that she had known Mrs. O'Day for more than 15 vears and'she last FOREIGN BASES NEAREST PEKIN and I left believe that his wife would not improving, I came back to this city, siring to have my blood examined, feared blood poisoning “]T returned to St. louts in gon. | remained in St. Lindell or at the Rremer's residence June. “During this time | was very sick.

The strike was not successful, only 25 the employes quitting work. and the were reported operated on schedule with a full force of men.

ELDEST CHILD SAID SHE COULD NOT SUPPORT THEM. Mother Died Fourteen Months Ago and the Father Went Away July 24 and Has Not Returned. Because Daniel Curtain of 2830 South Sec- ond street is mysteriously missing from his home, Mayor Ziegenhein was Wednesday reluctantly compelled to send to the House of Refuge five children whom the officials Say are as pretty ang intelligent as any children in the city of St. Louis. The committment “was made at the re- quest of the eldest child, a girl of 15, who said that she had done her best to support her younger sister and her brother, but that she had found the task beyond her strength. While she was able to take care of her- Self, she said, she hoped the mayor would include her in the committment. because it was the desire of all the children that they should not be separated. Several families. she said, had offered to take one of her charges off her hands, but none of the little ones could bear to be parted from the others. Little Miss Mary Helen Curtain usually small for her age. eEtrong,’’ she said, “and even bigger girls than me only get $2.50 and $3 a week, and while a girl might get along on that she cant possibly take care of darlings like these as they ought to be taken care of. ‘My little brother, who is only 10 years hgs helped to take care of all of us working in the glasshouse near our home, but it is a dull season and he can't even bring in his $2.50 just now. I1 have figured it all out and I have come to the conclusion that we just can’t do anything else but go to the fe of Refuge until my sister and 1 get bigger and can take care of these younger ones. “Then maybe my papa will come back sometime if he gets work and we will all be happy once more.,”’ Curtain disappeared from his home July 24. The day previous he had sold his furni- ture for a meager sum. In the morning he kissed each of the little ones and bade them good-by. but they say that they did not understand this to mean that his fare- well was for permanency. Curtain formerly lived at 3121 Broadway, and for a long time was employed in the switching yards at Lemp's Brewery. He was last emploved in the American Car Shops, but had been out of work for some time. While this fact and the necessary struggles of his children to help in mutual support had made him despondent, the children say, they do not believe that he contemplated suicide when he left. The mother of the children died about fourteen months ago. Eugene Reno of 2826 South Second street, from whom Curtain rented apartments, and who accompanied the children to the Wyoming Street Police Station. said that he belfeved that Curtain had deliberately deserted his children but the little ones still have faith in their father. In the struggle to keep herself and the smaller children alive Mary Curtain was compelled to take service in a boarding house conducted by colored residents in the neighborhood of her home, but, she found herself incapable of doing the labor re- quired. The St. Vincent de Paul Society at one time assisted the children, but it is stated that at the present time the funds of the society district are exhausted, and as a result Mr. Reno consulted with the girl and upon his advice she consented that the children be committed to the House of Refuge, on condition that she might be allowed to accompany them and that there should be no separation. The missing father is described as having been 37 vears old, with a slight Irish ac- cent. He was dressed in plain laborer’s clothes—a black coat, dark pants and brown soft hat.

DATE NOT DECIDED UPON. ~7~-_e_-------— Questions of Finance and Plans of the Campaign Discussed by State Executive Committee. Republicans will open their state com- paign at Sedalia sometime between Aug. 2% and Sept. 1. This was decided Wednes- day morning at a meeting of the Repub- lican State Executive Committee at the Lindell Hotel. The selection of the exact date of the fir- ing of the opening gun was left to Nationa! Committeman Kerens, State Chairman Akins and the Republicans of Sedalia. In selecting Sedalia, which is a considerabte railway center, the committee followed thi lead of the Democrats, who will open thei campaign Aug. 21. There were present at the meeting, which was held in room 2, the following: Louis P. Aloe, Mayor Ziegenhein, Charles Schweickardt an@ William H. Hohn of ®t Louis. Frank D. Roberts of Springreld, fl P. Kinsolring of Maldene, Thomas M, Al- len of Cassville, P. 8. Brown, Jr., of Kati sas City, Ralph O. Stanton of St. Joseph, Henry Lamm of Sedalia, Dr. J. C. Parish of Vandalia and W. J. Wightman of Beth- any. A number of Republicans of local not» dropped into headquarters to greet the vis itors. Among them was Prof. O. M. Wood principal of L’Ouverture 5 _ ed to tell the committee that revolt was rife among colored Republicans over the failure of the party to recognize them, a>» they believe they deserve. The committee indulged in some discus- sion of the financial side of the campaign, and there were eager inquiries for further information about the report telegraphed from Washington recently to the Post-Dis- patch that the national committee had de- cided to appropriate $30,000 to the campaign in Missouri. The Missouri Republican lead- ers have not heard of this except through the Post-Dispatch, but they are disposed to accept it as the decision of the national! committee and are anxious to get their hands on the money. The suggestion was made Wednesday that the executive com- mittee should appoint a sub-committee to eall upon Chairman Hanna and ask for the cash. The general opinion is that the na- tional committee, in its eontribution to Mis- souri, will stipulate that the money be used in ald of congressional candidates only and that Mr. Flory and the balance of the state ticket be allowed to get money where they enn.

THE ASSASSIN OF HUMBERT Facts Obtained by a Post-Dispatch Correspondent, Who Visited the Town of Prato in Italy. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch. rLORENCE, Italy, Aug. 1.—Your corre- spondent trip to Prato, where he obtained a detailed account of the antece- made a _ dents of Bressi, the assassin of King Hum- bert, and of his movements prior to the | assassination. Bressi was borr. Nov. 10, 1869, in Colano, a mile from Prato, a manulactur- 15.000 inhabitants, beautifully situ- Florence. He began but studied in a (gaetano town of ated 15 miles north of work as a shoemaker, technical Prato for a time and thus became a weaver, Which avocation he followed for eight years at Fabrones’ large factory in Prato.

J., edited by Ciancabelli and Malatesta, revolutionary Italians. Bressi traveled from New York via Paris, and on June 14 applied to the municipal au- thorities of Prate for a birth certificate that he might secure a permit to carry arms. This was refused becChuse of his character and past offenses which he had committed against the municipality. On June 16 he secured a passport for New York. describing himself as a shoemaker Kariv in June he went to Castle San Pietro to visit two of his voung nieces On the evening of Julv 18 he took the train for Miian via Bologna Rressi is tall and slender, with an complexion, dark eyes and a slight mus- tache ifis mother died in February, 1891, and his father in 189. The assassin has two brothers, one Lorenzo. a shoemaker at Co- iano, 13 years older than himself. and the other. Angiolo. for whom the murderer ap- pears to have been at first mistaken. Angi- olo is eight years older than the assassin and is a Heutenant of artillery, stationed at Caserta Lorenzo Bress!l, the respondent, said: “I knew of Gaetano’s anarchist opinions, but never attached any importance to them I always thought him a qulet, good-natured fellow, though unsettled. “For my part, I curse the anarchists, my opinion being that for workingmen like us the chance to eat, drink and work should be enough, I don't think much about politics. olive interviewed by cor- “a ORE RE MES & ings, including a target at which he prac- ticed with a revolver. The family is deeply distressed at the dis- grace which has fallen upon their name. They showed Gaetano's photograph to the Post-Dispatch correspondent as proof of his | quiet appearance and exhibited a letter re- cently received from him for the purpose of showing that in it he made no reference to the assassination of King Humbert. Gaetano’s old nurse, Marie Belli, was also appalled and griefstricken by the crime which her foster son had committed. | “He was always good-hearted and of a sweet disposition,’’ she exclaimed, “‘but got under evil. influences.’’ The town of Prato is draped in mourning flags for the murdered King. Manufactori¢es are closed and troops have been ordered there.

INTERNATIONAL COMPLICATIONS They May Arise From Investigation of American Anarchism, Which Italy Is Now Making. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Aug. 1.—International com- plications may follow the disclosures that the plot to assassinate King Humbert origi- nated in Paterson, N. J. A private detec- tive is working on the case under orders from the Italian consul-general's office in this city. A full investigation will be made by the officials of the Italian government. | It is understood that this is by orders from Rome. If it be found that the murder of Humbert was planned in this country, Italy may ask whether the persons concerned in it were American citizens or Italian resi- dents not yet naturalized. Upon this will depend several issues of international law. If there be conspirators the Itallan gov- ernment may ask for their extradition. The elaborate scheme to release the an- archists at Pittsburg being discovered so near the day on which Humbert was killed suggests a general movement by anarchists in America. This theory is strengthened by the knowledge that New York anarchists hatched the plot to release Alexander Rerk- man from the Pittsburg jail. Berkman is the anarchist who shot H. C. Frick. A man who is in the confidence of the anarchists said last night that more than | $5000 Was collected for the purpose of re- | leasing Berkman.

THE ROUGH RIDER REBUKED There is nothing improbable in the story that Mr. has roundly rebuked Gov. Roosevelt hard names in his St. Paul speech. The rough rider is a rough rider.

Of course Mr. Roosevelt does not mean that all Democrats are cowards or enemies of their country. When he Says such things he meane merely that Democrats are opposed to his election to the vice-presidency and that he doesn’t like it.

As I reached my dressing room I saw one my seconds, young McMichael, talking a man in the doorway. The man slunk away as we came up, but I recognized him. lt was Phil Geoghan. “What was that fellow as Ki d Mc Mi: ‘hael. e's one of the officers of the club,” the boy to'd me, “and he was heiping us with the things we brought.” I thought no more about {[t except to wonder why Phil Geoghan, who had always hated me, should take such a lot of trouble to look over my interests now. It was late, so 1 began prepsess for the fight in a hurry without thinking any more of Geoghan. I had better things to think of. I was indulgine myself by building what people call castles in Spain.

It was tempting fortune I knew, but noth- ing venture nothing have. I was only 19. If I'd been older I'd have thought twice be- fore staking my whole future on one tight, Late in the vear as it was, the weather was warm and my dressing room was stifling. Heat and excitement had made me half sad with thirst. Mc Mic hael was complaining of thirst, too, so I said to him: “Open one of those mineral-water bot- tles and give me a swallow of it, then drink the rest of the bettle yourself .t you Ike There were two or three bottle of min- eral water in my dressing room for me to drink or wash my mouth out with duriag the fight.

McMichael cut the wire of this and I ex- pected the cork to fly out, but it didn’t. “The bottle seems dead,’ I suid to Me Michael. ‘‘Never mind, the earbenic gas wow ve bad for me anyhow. Full th; cork.’’ I took a big mouthful of the water, swal- lowed just a little (it is bad to drink to much water before a fight) and rinsed out my mouth with the res Then McMichael joni the bottle and emp- tied it in one draught. In 5 minutets I was ready for the ring. I started toward the door, but stumbled. “What ails you?’ Harris asked me. “Nothing much, I guess, I told him, ‘My head feels a little queer and my body's sort of numb. It's the heat, I suppose. I'll be all right by the time I get tno the ring. “Come on, if you're ready,” said Sam, and Mec Michael” The boy answered him with a groan and collapsed on the floor, where he roll around in perfect agony. “Cramps,”’ I said. **Too much cold mineral ; Water in hot weather.”’ Then the same sort of pain, only less of it, caught hold of me; and the room began 'to whirl around and Harris seemed about -a hundred miles off.

Frazer and Donahue Did the Twirling for the Quaker City Boys and Were Hit Hard. The St. Louis Baseball Club, which has been worrying the minds of the scribes, who have been sending out all sorts of stories in regard to its reorganization, temporarily at least put a quietus to these “nipes’’ Tuesday by winning the first game of the series from Shettsline’s band of Quakers at Philadelphia. The Cardinals played Phillies and proved conc! can win games without if they have a mind to. Bert Jones, Manager Tebeau’'s elongated southpaw, occupied the slab for the and after the first inning, when the Phil- lies scored their only four runs of the game, had his opponents completely at his mercy, allowing them but four safe hits in the remaining eight innings. The entire team backed Jones up in admirable fashion, every one of the players putting up a fast, Scrappy game in their respective positions. eastern rings around the usively that they being reorganized locals, With the exgeption of McGraw and Wal- lace each one of the Cardinals secured one Or more safe hits, but the little captain was not called upon to hit safeiy to reach first base, as the Philadelphia twirlers, trazer and Donahue, very obiigingiy permitted alin to ambie to the initia: corner four of the Bix times he faced them, three times on their inability to put the sphere over the plate, and once by hitting» him on the hand with a pitched bail McGraw made himself obnoxious to Mr. Frazer that he biamed the umpire, Tim Hurst, and finally requested his manager Lo remove him trom the box, which the :iatter did, in the third inning. Donahue took his piace and held Tebeau's bunch sate until the final inning, wiien just to demonstrate to the red-topped twirier that ali pitchers iook alike to them when they are in a winning mood, slammed horsehide all over the field, and when Were: finally retired had chalked up runs, which, together with the runs scored in the first three innings, gave them a total! of 11 tallies, while Phiiadeiphia scored but 4. SOU The article of ball put up by the Cardi- nals at Philadelphia on ‘Tuesday is the of ball that the team should piay in every game, as it iS nothing more or less than their true gait. They are capable of win. ning from the best teams in the League withno@t much of an effort if they will put play in,unison. ‘The talk of reorganizing the team is all buncomb. It is difticult to see how a reorganization could take place with a benefit to the club. Take the players individually pare them with other teains in the League according to official averag. which are the true criterions of a player's worth. McGann, for the greater pari of this sea- gon, led the first pagers: and while he Was not at the top of the column when the last averages were published, he was very close to the leader Keister is not the ranking second baseman, and what is more, he never will be, for the simple reason that he is not a record piayer and goes after grounders and grasscutters that the majority of middle station players do not make an effort te field. Wailace is the fame way. No one ever accused Bobby of shirking a ball, and that is the prime reason that there are so many misplays chalked against his record. McGraw not the best fielding third baseman in League by any means, but he is able hold his own, as every one knows, and though he is outranked by Lave Cross and others, he covers more ground and makes more plays that require headwork than any one man in the position in the League. As for the regular outfielders, they are in a class by themselves. Emmett Heidrick is the leading center flelder of the League, and is the recognized peer of them all in the position. Donovan and Burkett are reat ficiders and as good as the next. Don- in is the most promising youngster in the business. Mike is not yet a finished fielder, but improves in every game he plays, and at that can hold his own in com- parison to the majority of suburbanites in the major organization. As for the twirlers, the Jones, Young and Powell, dition, and Hughey and Sudhoff can be relied on to relieve the regulars occasion- ally. As a backstop Criger is the peer of them all, and Tim Murnane, the well-known Boston scribe, says Robinson caught the best games seen in Beantown this vear on the Cardinals’ recent trip to that city. The above statements are borne out bv the records, so it is hard to contemplate a change for the good in the make-up of the team No change is necessary, however, if the boys will continue to play together as they did on Tuesday, and it is to be hoped they will. sort and com- three mainstays, are in prime con- _— - — Baseball Pickups.

Woods, met for the second time in a race at a mile and seventy yards It is a well-known that these two horses have caused the sus- pe nsion of one of the best jockeys now rid- ing in St. Louis, Dick Crowhurst, who rode Guide Rock in the first race on Tuesday, the 24th of July, and was beaten a half a length by Chorus Boy, with Dominick in the sad- die. On the following Saturday these horses met again in a six and one-half furlong dash. Guide Rock was well ridden by Dom}- nick and won this race, while Chorus Boy, ridden by Tullett, was next to lastina large field. Immediately after this race Judge Mur- phy ruled Dic k Crowhurst off the track, al- lowing him to ride for George Bennett only, with whom he is under contract Tuesday, as above stated, these horses started in the fourth race, which was at a mile and seventy vards, and again Chorus Boy beat Guide Rock by a half length.

Grain, Provisions and Seed Included in the General Omission From the Exchange at Chicago. The Chicago off from the St. Louis market although many of the tinued to receive them. The effect upon trade felt. Traders have so long been tomed to following the lead, of that now, when under the necessity, cannot act independently. There was some doubt before the opening as to whether the injunction issued Satur- day by Judge Bishop. restraining the Chi- cago Board of Trade from cutting off their quotations from the Central Grain and Stock Exchange of that city, would. permit the telegraph companies to furnish the Mer- chants’ Exchange with quotations. When the market opened the operator for the Chicago board posted this notice: ‘‘No Chicago quotations will be posted.’’ Although cut off from the public Chicago quotations, traders were not wholly in the dark as to the course of trade there. Many of the private wire houses posted the con- tinuous quotations and some of the bucket shops managed to get them. Some traders imagined that the grain quo- tations would be the only ones cut off, but it was found Wednesday that provisions and seed prices also ceased coming. CITY NEWS.

Hupertz roomed with Conductor John P. Hummer at 2103 Laclede avenue. He arose as usual at 7 o’clock and started to walk to the ear sheds, a block away. When in front of 3121 he was seen to reel and clutch his chest. He sat down on the stone cop- ing of the lawn terrace, gasping for breath. The housegirl at the adjoining number was sweeping the steps. Hupertz weakly implored her to call a doctor. The girl sent a bov across the street to awaken Dr. Tal- bott of 3148 Laclede avenue. The doctor hurriedly dressed and ran to Hupertz, who was still in a sitting posture, holding his hands over his heart. Thick white froth was issuing from his mouth. Dr. Talbott sent the housegirl to bring hot water, and he asked Hupertz who he was and where he lived. The man tried to reply, but the next moment he fell over on the grass. He was dead within two min- utes after the arrival of the physician.

Mr. Bergler was working at the Fast St. Louis rolling mills seven years ago and GEORGE BERGLER. made good wages. Then at Christmas time came the illness which caused his affliction, and when in March he was finally able to go out again his sight had left him. Always accustomed to work he could not bear the thought of being dependent on oth- ers and began to mimake a livelihood family. out take study and to his a Means care oft aecident that first threw his pres- ent employment in his way. He had taken an old wheelbarrow and gone down to the railroad yvards to pick up coal along the tracks, taking his 5-veur-old girl to guide him. He was returning home with his load when an old woman, who saw him trudging by, offered to buy his load. The fact that he had once more earned a little money put the idea into his head that he might sell coal every day, and in a tew weeks the old wheelbarrow wis renlaced by the cart which would hold more coal criminals used prairies, chafed with the heat and the con- Missouri, Kansas and Texas into the Union Station sheds morning it brought one car whose passengers did not leave their seats to mingle with the crowd in the Midway.

Together in the middle of the car sat two men who had burned a human beine at the stake. They had been a little hasty in their act, the court had judged, and they now under a sentence of three years They were white men, capable of teachine a lesson in barbarity to the wild- est of the Indians among whom they lived. Across the aisle were two men who had broken open a country store which served a postoffice and had carried away some letters with the rest of their plunder. They will spend 15 years each in the peniten- tiary. Mingled with the most desperate of the lot were men who had been arrested for carrving weanons and introducing whisky, charges which in Indtan Territory are brought In much the same way as is the charge of loutfing and lounging in a city police court, to get rid-of dangerous char- vwcters against whom no other: definite of- fense can he alleged at the time.

There were few old time offenders among them, and several were mere youths. Sam Pryor and Bird lvanhoe, whites from Oklahoma, were the notable prisoners or the company. The crime for which they were sentenced was one of the most atroci- ous in the history of the border, and only strong mitigating circumstances saved them from hanging or life imprisonment. They kidnapped two Seminole Indian boys, Lincoln McGesey and a companion, from Tinto, in the Seminole nation, took them across the line into Oklahoma and were the leaders of a mob which burned the two indians at the stake. The offense of which they believed their victims guilty was one which had stirred up the passion for revenge in all the sur- rounding country, but it was later found that the two youths who were burned to death had in all probability been innocent of the crime charged against them. The arrest of Pryor and Ivanhoe on the charge of conspiracy followed, and they were sentenced to three years imprison- ment each. Both are plain looking men of the prairies, and Pryor’s face is one from which anything resembling compas- sion seems pecullarly lacking. They were pointed out to some of the curious outside the car, and returned their expressions of interest with sullen glares. The long-term prisoners of the party go up for 15 vears each. They were O. W. Head, Charles Williams and Joe Ross, the last ‘=e named having been convicted of burg- ary. Of no less interest than the prisoners themselves were the men in charge of them, whose massive revolvers were held in care- less pose which kept bystanders endeav- oring to get behind the deputies. The only exception to the general frontier aspect of. the party was United States Mar- shal F. C. Hubbard, who might have passed for a St. Louis lawyer or a real estate man. His deputies were W. H. Barker, Hayden Tolbert, Ben Cobb, Wood Bruner, W. Ik. Trainor and Bob Tavlor. All have records in desperado-catching to their credit, and on the tvory handles of their revolvers are notches which to the initiated stand for the gravestones of bad men on the plains.

Jones was not feeling weary himself, and kept the prison in an uproar with his won- derful voice. All night the bunks of the cells were infested by a horde of rodents. They were of immense size and actually gnushed their teeth with rage and gnawed holes as large as the side of a barn in tbe iron walls. Plain drunks thought they had a case of “snakes.”’ Sober prisoners were annoved and cursed Jones. Others were amused. lis cellmates asked to have him removed. All in all, he gave the turnkeys a horrible night of it. Then he was taken into the police court, where the policeman told of his vocal mim- lery.

Five long-haired Comanches, under the leadership of Chief Le-sah-tigh, spent a half hour in Union Station Wednesday morning on their way to Washington. This is about the time of the annual visit of the representatives of the less-civilized Indian tribes to the national capital, and the fact that the President is generally away from Washington when there seems to make no them.

A conductor on the Laclede avenue line stated that Hupertz was in the habit of smoking several packages of cigarettes in the daytime. ‘‘He smoked all the time when off duty,’’ said this conductor. Conductor Hummer, his roommate, says that Hupertz was as well as usual, appar- ently, when he arose Wednesday morning. He could not say whether Hupertz was in the habit of taking morphine, but the suppo- sition is that he used the drug to steady his nerves, which were unstrung by the use of cigarettes. Dr. Talbott said Hupertz had edema of the lungs, which might have been caused by morphine, but the doctor was inc.ined to think, from his hasty examination, that a were no symptoms of morphine pois- oning.
