Dar-jrer of International Complications
I'ecause of New York Anti-Negro
Riots.
NEW TORK. Aug. E.-The Herald
ays:
Intprnmlnnal comollcatlons may fol
low the nero riots. Alfred Aikens, a
British subject, who was one of the vic
tims of the mob. and later of the police
outrages, has appealed to the British
consul for redress.
Aikens is a parlor car porter, and
while he was on nls way to his home
from the Grand Central station. Igno
rant of the race war then irolnar on.
he was beaten and almost killed by
whites. He was rescued by a police'
man, but barely escaped even rougher
treatment at the hands of the police,
AiKens is aoout years old ana a
native of Kingston. Jamaica. He Is
employed by the New York, New Ha
ven & Hartford road. He described his
experience yesterday:
" arrived at the Grand Central sta
tion about S o'clook Wednesday evening,
August 15, fr-m the White mountains.
T had not heard of the riots then going
on and I started for my home. I got to
Forty-first street, when a mob of white
men seised me. crying out. There's an'
other of the black devils.' They knock'
ed me down. I got up and ran north to
Forty-third street the mob following
me all the way. They caught me and
dragged me back to Forty-first street.
"Somebody told a policeman that I
was innocent and he took me away from
them and Ints a store. They called an
ambulance, and my wounds were dress
ed. My face was badly cut and my
right ere was swollen shut Then they
started to take me to the police station
and on the wav the ambulance was
stopped for half an hour near Ninth av
enue. A mob - ' ' and men
set cn me, the police offering no ob
jection. "I was kept at the pillce station until
two o'clock In thf- morning. whn .!.
said there was no charge against me
and told me to go. with half a ioten
other negroes. There was a mob still
outside the station and I begged to be
allowed to remain. They let me stay
unll: 4 o'clock, when Captain Cooney
came and ordered me and several
others out. I was the last to leave the
station, and he said to me: 'I hone the
police will catch you before you get
home and beat you to death.' It was
raining then and the mob had scatter
ed. I was not molested on the way
home."
. Aikens has been under treatment since
then In the New York hospital. He
called on the British consul who said he
would Investigate his ease.
C. Clive Bayley. who is British act
ing consul-general during the absence
In Europe of Percy Sanderson, said that
All;ens had called on him. said that he
was a British subject and that he had
been clubbed without cause during the
riots. He was told to have his com
plaint put In legal form. Clive Bayley
told Alliens to come back after he was
better and he would consider his case.
BIG STRIKE THREATENED.
All Union Men Connected With tha
Building Trades at Chicago Expect

CHICAGO. Aug. 22. Unless th plans
of the leaders mlacarry. every union
man connected with the Bunding
Trades council will be called out on
strike before Labor day. The plumbers
have already ben ordered out, and the
Intention Is that all other unions 'a hose
men are working shall fViow suit. Ow
ing to Increased activity in the build
ing trades within the last few days,
many union men have been put
to work In some places with he con
sent of the business agents, and It is
the purnowe of the unions to stop the
work wherever the bosses believed they
had won 'a victory and Bhow them that
the labcr organizations are still in the
fight. The business aent of one of
the largest unions said:
"Contractors have come to believe
that It in comparatively easy sailing
for them now and accordingly havt
been undertaking some large Jobs with
the Idea that there would be no fur
ther trouble from th-j unions. They
will find to their disgust that many of
tha men whom they supposed to be
non-union men have be.-ome members
of the unions and will pimply be un
able to do any work. It Is the only
thing that is left the unions unless
they propose to give up the fight. The
ldeaof. htlning the contractors along
In their Jobs has been a miFtake which
ia gitfiwally recognize! now, and they
will find there; Is n lit .if fight left
among the mea yet."

Wall Wilson, who was one rf the two
survivors of the second Orlnnel Arctic
expedition. Is dead at St. John's hos
pital. Urooklyn, from the effect of an
operation for appendicitis performed
elKbt months aeo. The operation was
believed to have been successful and
Captain Wilson appeared to be re
covering until three days a km whn a
relapse came, resulting In his death.
Captain Wilson was 69 years of age.
He won fame as the navigator of Dr.
Kane's expedition Into the far north.
The object of the expedition way the
relief of Sir John Franklin. The par
ty left the Brooklyn navy yard in

SHIPPING DECISION.
Refrigerator Plant Not a Part of a
Ship's Equipment
NEW YORK. Aug. 22. Judge Somer
ville. in an opinion handed down for
the board of classification of the United
States general appraisers, says that It
Is more than doubtful whether a re
frigerating plant could be considered
a tart o f a ship's equipment, especially
as It was not a part of the rroperty of
the owners of the vessel nor was It
leased by the owners.
The Swift Beef Company, limited, en
tered Into a contract with the Atlantic
Transport line for the right to occupy I
certain space on the steamer Marquette.
While the vessel was at London, the
Swift Company started to Install a re
frigerating plant, but the vesel had
to sail bef'jre the work was completed.
The first of the materials for the
plant was sent over on the Campania
arriving at this port before the Mar
quette. The collector tissessd the reg
ular duties on the materials Imported
on the Campania, and the importing
company filed a protest, claiming that
the merchandise should come In free as
part of the vessel's equipment. The
protest was overruled.
REDUCTION IN COFFEE.
War of Rival Companies Works to the
Advantage of Consumers.
NEW YORK. Aug. 22. Considerable
surprise was shown In lower Wall street
as a result of the announcement of the
Arbuckles that they would pay their
customers cent per pound additional
rebate on all roasted coffees purchased
from them that shall be 10 per cent or
more In excess In pounds of amount
purchased In the year ended July 1.
This Is supposed to Indicate that trou
ble over coffee is likely to be renewed
at any time.
The American Sugar Refining Com
pany recently began allowing an extra
one per cent discount to their custom
ers who have Increased their pur
chases. This is said to be done to off
set the extra one per cent allowed by
the Arbuckles to wholesalers on sugar.
and In retaliation, the Arbuckles have
made the announcement regarding
purchases of coffee.
Arbuckle Bros, and the Woolson Spice
Company have both reduced their quo
tations on package coffee half a cent
per pound.

ALLIED FORCES TO
REMAIN IN PEKIN
(Continued from r Af on.)
conslderkbly and enable this govern
ment to map out. In a large degree, Its
future tine of action In China. This
was not the case, however. General
Chaffee's telegram Indicated that thotv
may be yet considerable heavy fighting
around IVkln, and between that city
and the coast. It was lmislble to
make any prediction as to the da;
of the paiiflcatton on the Information
thus furnished, and the administration
Is not able to fix an approximate date
for the withdrawal of our troop from
Chinese territory.
While the White Jlous confervne
was In progress the Chinese minister
arrived at the state department. Mr.
Adee was absent and the miniate
waited patiently for two hours, the ex
poctatlon being that the reply of th
United States government to M Hung
Chang's peace application would be
handed to him. At 13 o'clock minis
ter Wu had heard nothing as to th
return of the acting secretary of state
and he returned to the Chinese leg.t
tlon, expecting to call tomorrow, un
leas advised before then that his pres
ence was desired.
Bloody work has been going on In
Pekln. according to a dtspatch recelv
ed today by the navy department from
Admiral Remey, dated Taku, the SOth,
and Pekln. the 16th. The message
shows that the AmerU-an forces ver
then fighting, along with the allies,
and that progress had been made which
could only have been accomplished af
t?r military efforts of a severe ihar
acter.
Oiflelals of the war department who
are familiar with the physical con
ditions of the defeases of Pekln. say
that the fact that all but the Imper
ial citv had been cleared of Chinese
troops is evidence enough of the severe
fighting which must have occurred. In
order for the American troops to pene
trate the gates of the pulace they must
have stormed a wall about 30 feet high
which no doubt was stubbornly de-
feuded.
It Is a source of satisfaction to the
military officials here that the allied
commanders succeeded In clearing the
region outside of the Imperial city of
Chinese troops, as thereby the dan
ger of attacks In the flank and In the
rear, while the invaders were storming
the Imperial city, would be obviated
Admiral Remey's dispatch. In stating
that all but the Imperial city had been
cleared cf the Chinese soldiery, left
the Impression that a force of defend
ers was still Intrenched In that sec
tion of Pekln, and would have to be
routed out
General Chaffee's brief report stated
that he entered the legation grounds
at 5 o'clock on the evening of the 14th
and that eighty men were wounded In
the day's fighting. Admiral Remey's
dispatch shows that within the next
two days General Chaffee lost six men
killed, including Captain Rellly. of the
Fifth artillery, and 30 men wounded,
To all appearances, therefore, the
fighting In Pekln was more severe af
ter the entry Into th? city than dur
ing the movements which brought the
Americans to the lr-gatlon gates. This
may be explained by the evident fact
that the rescuing parties were engaged
In clearing the outer city of Chinese
soldiery. Such a task would not have
been a light one, owing to the presence
of large bodies of Chinese troops In
the city and the means at hand of for
tirying tr.emseives in the narrow
streets of the main city and behind
the walls of the Imperial city.
Admiral Remey's dispatch also
shows that there Is further fighting
outside of Pekln. and that the Boxers
have not been dispersed, but are still
Inclined to hang on the outskirts
of the invaders and harrass them as
much as possible. It would also sem
to presage fighting for the allies If
they should attempt to return from
Pekln, and for the reinforcements
which will be sent forward to Tien
Tsln and Pekln. Evidently, according
to the military authorities, the coun
try about Tien Tsln and between that
city and Pekln still harbors hostile
forces which will have to be overcome
by the allies before the road can be
opened from Pekln to the sea.
NEW YORK. Aug. 22.-A special to
the World from Washington says:
The war department sent General
Chaffee a cablegram of four words late
this afternoon which practically takes
things out of Minister Conger's hands
and puts General Chaffee In a position
of the utmost responsibility.
The message said: "Report opera
tions, situation, requirements."
There Is no Intention of depreciating
Minister Conger;the government has
the liveliest sense of gratitude for him;
but It Is not deemed expedient to act
on his dispatches because, after his ter
rible experience, he Is naturally embit
tered and possibly unconsciously bi
ased, and because he needs and de
serves, a rest. It Is proposed to have
Mr. Conger come home at the first op
portunity and enjoy a long period of
rest and recuperation.
NEW YORK. Aug. 22.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
Some more particulars are published
of the attack on Pekln by the allies.
The Shanghai correspondent of the Mall
says that the walls were blown up
with dynamite.
Fears are entertained lest the com
munications of the allies In Pekln with
Tien Tsln ' should have been cut. as
Chinese forces are reported In the
neighborhood of Pel Tsang.
Statements are made in Paris to the
effect that French troops now on their
way to the far East will not go to Ta
ku, but will be disembarked In Ton-
quln.
The reply of the United State gov
ernment to the offer of 1.1 Hung Chan
to negotiate, undoubtedly, says the
Times, represents the position which
It the powers concerned have uxrd
to take up.
NEW YORK. Aug. 22.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
There again a tvvtval of something
like Pessimism In otHcln) and political
circles here, or In the mttnty remnants
left of them in London by the ravage
of the helKluv season. After til ex.
hlluriulon caused by the first news of
the entry of the alltes Into Pekln, there
has come a rebound.
The cessation of dltvot eomtmml.'Atlon
with the allied commanders nt the front
is net liked at all. nor does Admiral
Bruoe's telegram, stating tht the For
bidden City was entered on the 17th.
do much to console the doubters. In
the flint Place It Is pointed out that the
admiral dor not profess to have heard
his news officially from General Guse
lee. but only given It on the authority
of th-' report current at Taku. and we
know by this time what report in Chi
nese towns are worth: secondly, even
if the authentic news Is four day old
and much may have happened since
thin the silence of the general lends
color to a Shanghai statement that the
wires to Tien Tsln are cut, and may
also help to explain the hurried march
of tle German and Italian reinforce
ments to Pekln.
Assuming that even the mored city
and the lutl-u-e are captured, the Jiffl
cultli s of the nlll-s are bv no means at
an ei'd. Their force Is, of course, more
than sufficient to repel any attftvk
made on them, whether bv Box rs or
bv Imperial troops, but when It Is re
membered that thev have to nolliv the
grat tr!lng citv of Pekln. with Its
million Inhabitants, and to keen open
the line of communication to the coast,
their strength Is bv no mean exces
sive, even If It Is sufficient for the
work In hand.
Besides, the allied general, like Lord
Roberts In South Africa, mav have ad
vanced too fast effectively to occupy
the country behind '.hem. The spjed of
their march wan rend -red necessary by
the position of the legations, for if the
relief column had taken three or four
davs longer on the Journey. It might
have come too late. Ptlll.lf the Chinese
troops which were defeated nt Pel
Tsang and Yang Tsun should form up
again betweeen the capital and Tien
Tsln. the allies will either have to
march back to disperse them, or to wait
till that task Is performed by reinforce
ments from the coast, and meanwhile
may find themselves virtually besieged
at Pekln.
The pessimists too. are additionally
depressed by Minister Conger's testi
mony as to the conduct of the Chinese
government and his opinion that the
tvhole movement was got uo by the Im
perial authorities and that the Boxer
were a mere pretence. On the other
hand. It Is admlttel that If the empress
and the Manchu princes, particularly
Tuan, have been captured, the outlook
Is mu?h more hopeful, since It will be
possible to find responsible Chinese au
thorities on whom new arrangements
can be lmposd. The action of the
south-rh viceroys, too. shows that the
campaign In the north has had an ex-,
cellent effect In checking the further
unread of antl-forelgn agitation.
The Chinese minister hero has hand
ed to the foreign office for transmission
to Lord Salisbury. LI Hung Chang's
note suggesting that a Plenipotentiary
should be appointed to negotiate with
him. His communication Is couched In
a tone of cool assumption, which ex
cites a certain amount of Indignation.
The Times and other papers had arti
cles angrily denouncing LI and sugg'-st
Ing that no notice should be taken of
him. The aged viceroy Is profoundly
trusted by what may be called the An
glo-Chinese colony here, which Is not
without Influence upon the foreign of
fice. It Is urged that there Is plenty of
proof that LI Is not playing for his own
hand, rather than genuinely endeavor
ing to extricate China from Iut difficul
ties. His Influence has for some time
past been overshadowed by the violent
reactionary Manchu party, and he may
now be trying to get even with his en
emies, or. again. If he Is volunteering
his services, the powers may negotiate
with him and as soon as peace Is patch
ed up and the allied contingents with
drawn, LI will be repudiated, as has
happened before, on the ground that
he has exceeded his authority. It Is
also said that LI dislikes England more
thar. any other European nation, and
has more than a preference for Russia.
It Is. therefore, thought that. If possi
ble, negotiations should take place In
Pekln. and Li's Intervention can be dis
pensed with. All this, of course, again
depends on the possibility of finding
anybody in Pekln to negotiate with.
HUNTINGTON'S WILL.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-Charles W.
Tweed, general consul and second vice-

yt about the vaoancy caused by the
death of Mr. Huntington except that we
