THU. MOWING ASTOiUAN !l'HI,,KSUA, UCIOliiK 4, lM LIBERALS GAIN SEATS. J)ut There Will Be Little Change In the Complexion of the New Parliament. ' LONDON, Oct. 4. The result of yesterday' polling In the parllamcn tary general elections were let it ilk Ing than those of Tuesday. Conserva tive majorities still show Increase In numerous contest but In lew marked degree. On the other hand the Lib eral have gained additional scats. On the whole the Indications this morning are that there will not be much change In the complexion of the new parlla ment. As matters now stand, out of the 2S candidal? returned, the relative trer:gth of the parties 'la as follows: Ministerialists. 212; Liberals, Inelud tng labor members, 47; Nationalists. 28. Altogether the Liberals have gained ten seats and the Conservatives seven, LACK OP EXCITEMENT. NEW TORK. Oct. 3.-A dispatch the Tribune from London says: to The election scenes In Fleet street and the political clubs are chiefly re markable for lack of excitement. The second day's polling has Included Hat tersea and Northampton, two of the most interesting borough contests, and has revjaled the trend of opinion In Lancashire and other Industrial sec tions, but the results have been re ceived almost listlessly In the streets and clubs. This apathy is due to the fact that the general result of the elections Is regarded as a foregone conclusion. Not even the most sanguine Liberal has expected the triumph of his party nor hoped for anything more than a reductlin of the government majority, The loyal example of the colonies In fighting the battles of the empire has brought the Liberal Imperialists well to the front In the opposition side, and even a material reduction of the gov ernment majority will not Involve a reversal of the South African policy. The elections are passing quietly be cause the country knows that there will not be any outbreak In the contin uity of the government of the empire. A fresh batch of uncontested regions sent the government well up to the figures at the close of the last parlia ment, and polling In Galway town re corded an unexpected Unionist gain In Ireland. The successful candidate to the eldest son of Lord Morris, formerly lord chief justice of Ireland. He ran against two Nationalist candidates In 1S95 and was defeated, but has now come out at the head of the poll in a home rule stronghold. He is a Roman Catholic and his election is proof that the influence of the clergy has not been thrown against him. The Tories describe this victory as the first fruits of the queen's visit to Ireland, and express hope that It may Influence the results of the elections In South Tyronne and South County, Dublin, where T. W. Russell and Ho race Plunkett are opposed by indepen dent Unionists.. These contests are regarded as de cisive In one respect. The Liberals are sending seven and the Unionists twenty-two seats which have ben con sidered doubtful. The Liberals will not have a better chance for making gains In the borough elections. Their failures will be an indication that the Unionists will hold their majority and possibly Increase it unless the county divisions take a line of their own. The Liberals started off with gain ing Grantham as an ofTset to Galway town and followed their advantage by capturing Swansea and Gloucester; but the Unionists Increased their ma jorities In Boston, Whitehaven and other boroughs and won a seat at Stockton-on-Leas. Mr. Balfour led of! In Lancashire with a largely increased majority. Mr. Bldwell was defeated af ter a stirring fight and the Industrial districts generally went strong Union ist. The cabinet makers have now cus pended their activity, until the results of the appeal to the country are more clearly known. There Is a generally accepted belief that Lord Lansdowne's successor will be a member of the com mons, where a good debater Is required for the exposition of reform politics favored by Lord Roberts. This will limit the choice of a new secretary of war to Mr. Chamberlain and Mr. Wyndham. Old Tories assert that the Influence of Mr. Chamberlain has de clined so that he will not be trans ferred to the war office. The potency of that Influence depends upon the re BUlt of the appeal to the country. It will Increase if parliament be strongly Unionist, for he has forced the fighting and has been the target of abuse. It may diminish If the Unionist majority be cut down. The most :ntimate friends of Mr. Chamberlain do not know whether he wishes the war office. His enemies as sert that he will be unwilling to play second fiddle to Lord P.oberts. for whatsoever is done in the way of mil itary reorganization will have the authority of the commander-in-chief. Mr. Chamberlain, Mr. Wyndham and Lord Roberts are alike convinced that the military resources of the colonies, which have been heavily drawn upon In South Africa, must not be lost sight of, but utilized and developed Into an comprehensive scheme for defense of the empire. INSURGENT PAPERS CAPTURED. Filipinos Will Cease Their Warfare If McKlnley is Re-elected, WASHINGTON. Oct. 3.-The war de T.artment has Just received 'rom Gen ral MacArUnir y mail another batch of Insurgent papers captured by the American troops. Among them are let ters from Theo. Sandlco and E. R. Reg- K -atrnts for the Filipino Junta at Hong Kong. A letter addressed by Sandlco to Lieutenant-Colonel Caslmlro Tlslno says In part: "The political campaign and torn other circumstance havt created In America a political situation that may oerhars Produce the downfall of Mc Klnley, which will signify the triumph of our Ideal. For the tame reason the disastrous war with the Transvaal and, more especially, the fierce revolution In China, have created a political atmos phere sufficiently critical to cause the birth of a disturbance of the armed peace of the great powers that may result favorably to our aspirations; be cause America may prefer to sacrifice some of her plans with respect to the Philippines granting our independence under a protectorate rather than sus tain two wars and run the risk of los ing the whole archipelago. I believe, then, under the condition so favorably colored by the present circumstances, it Is necessary that we continue the struggle and only accept peace on a basis of independence although under an American protectorate. ''If re-election of McKlnley be accom plished and the revolution In China b wiped out and the war In the Trans vaal take on no new complications, then I will be the first to accept the race that I believe to be necesyary. though it be at the cost of acknowledg. Ing the soverlgnty of the United States, since I consider that our forces are now impotent to defend our sacred and legitimate rights." Reglo. writing from Hong Kong Jun ta to Sandlco. describes the anti-Impe rialist convention In Philadelphia and the Boston meeting, to show that the Philippine sympathisers are Increas ing in numbers and victories obtained by the seasoned Philippine army ex ercise great influence on "the very Im pressionable minds of the American people." He concludes: 'This Impression Is and will be one of the determining causes of our tri umph, which triumph will come soon if we but resist a little more now that but little Is lacking to change the an nounced elections, as with the down fall of McKlnley come the ascenden- dance of the starred banner over our soil." PLOT TO KILL M'KINLEY. Italians Have Gone to Canton to As sassinate the President. CHICAGO. Oct S. A special to the Record from Canton, O- says: Information was made public last night that another plot had been dis covered to assassinate President Mc Klnley. Detectives connected with the safe- guaraing oi me presiaent say tnac of the president say there are three men either here or on their way to kill the president Extra policemen have been detailed to en force an order Issued by Mayor Robert son, ex-ofllclo chief of police, which notifies all policemen to keep close watch on all strangers In the city and to be particular to watch for two Ital ians who w-ill probably be accompanied by ar old man. Mayor Robertson In speaking of the matter said: "The wrord first came to the secret service department at Chicago. An anonymous letter was received by the United States secret service authorities there stating that three men for whose apprehension we were on the lookout were expected to arrive in Canton dur ing the day. Thus far they have not come, but we are keeping a close watch fcr them." RECEPTION TO BRYAN. Tammany Hall Prepare a Big Rally for October 16. NEW YORK.

RAPPROACHMENT NEAR AT HAND (Continued from par one.) ' chief dispenser of the hospital. The man was riven three hundred blows mid the demand was made that he should secure all the arms In possession of the mission. There were according ly given up two pistols and two rifles. The demand was made on behalf of Mrs. Atwater. who was about to be confined, that they be allowed a few days of respite, but the prefect Insisted that they were to be sent awav to the roast and rmrst be ready the next day. Four country carts were prepared for them and their goods duly racked. They were to start on August 15. A guard of 20 soldiers wns made ready. As soon as the arrangements were made the foreign houses were sealed up. The missionaries requested that they be permitted to sell their houses to secure silver for the Journey. The official re plied that all the property had been confiscated by Imperial decree -and could not be sold, but that a small property In a country village could be disnosd of. This was accordingly done and a small sum of silver secured. The escaped teacher rode a horse giv en him by Mr. Atwater. The soldiers J compelled him to dismount and ride on the cart. He overheard remarks by Ihe soldiers and from these he aathere.l that mischief was meant, and on the advice of ore of the soldiers escaped from the party some few miles from the villa s of Ksl Shlh. The party was supposed to be sont to Ping Yao, about thirty miles from Fu Chow. When not far away on his line of escape he heard the firing of a g;n. He afterwards learned that this was the signal for the attack upon the pirty. They were es corted by the soldiers a few miles fur ther when they were met by another detachment and all were attacked and killed with swords. The officials here piace no doubt In the accuracy of the report, which is said to have been confirmed by close ques tioning and further upheld by a mes sage from Mr. Price. This was written on a bit of '.inen which the refugee brought with him and surrendered to an officer at the gate of the walled city when he arrived. Going back to early June this man gives a graphic and apparently reliable account of all the murders In the Shan S province. Much of it is too horrible for publicity. Men. women and child ren were butcher?d. their bodies muti lated and In many Instances their heads placed on the gates of the vil'ags. So far as known the first murders oc- curred June 2?. when two of the women members of the China Inland mission were killed at Hsiao LI Hslen. These two were Miss White Church and Mis Sewall. who lived alone at the mission, a rernote place. On the day mentioned about three hundred Boxers 'orcd an entrance Into the mission compound and some of the village men smashed In the gate. The local magistrate was sent for, but it 13 said he reproved the messenger for disturbing him. The mob took this as an Indication that they were not to be Interfered with, and forced an en trance Into the house. The two women made vain appeals for mercy but were beaten to death with clubs and heavy glass battles. It Is said that one of thrti survived the assault about an hour. Their clithlng was stripped off and their valuables stolen. When the local magistrate was Informed of the murders he sent two boxes In which the bodies were placed and burled In the baptistry. The details of this out rage were learned from a messenger sent from the American board mission at Yen Chou Fu. The next outrage took place at Shou Chang, about "5 miles from Tal Yuan Fu. which was a mission station of the Independent workers on June 29. The etory of this masacre. If true, leaves little doubt of the guilt of the local Chinese authorises and also of the governor of the province. In all thirty three "oernons were slain. It appears that Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Plggott. their son; Mr. Robertson, a teacher; Miss Duval, a teacher, and two daughters of Rev. Mr. Atwater. of Yen Chou Fu, were driven from their homes and for several days hid In the mountains. Fi nally they determined to return to the mission. They were arrested and sent to Tal Yuan. Thiv were chained and handcuffed and Iron collars were placed around their necks, and during the terrible march they suffered terribly. Thy were not permitted to purchase food, and during the entire march were prac tically without anything to eat. On arrival at Tal Yuan they were placed in separate rooms and suffered many Indignities. In the .-neantlme most of the foreign houses ;n Tai Yuan were burned, foreigners taking refuge In the home of a Mr. Farthing, of the Eng lish Baptist mission. One woman, Miss Coombs, the principal of a girls' school, however, failed to escape and fell a victim to the mob. Hampered in their efforts to protect her she was separated from the others and secured by rioters who were looting the burning building. In spite of her pleading; she was siezed and thrown Into the flames. The missionaries remained until July 7 in the house of Mr. Farthing, when a complete list of all the foreigners was demanded by the governor. He ordered them all to come to his yamen. assuring thjm they would be protected and escorted safely to the coat. The order was compiled with, and the en tire party of foreigners was admitted between files of soldiers through the outer gate Into the court. When safely within the walls of the yamen the ranks of the soldier were opened and about forty Boxer admitted. They fell upon the Unarmed missionaries with sword, and a horrible butchery ensued. The bodies of the unfortunate men and wo men were hacked :nto piece, their heads cut off and placed In basket, which were suspended over the four gate of the city. Forty native Chris tiana were also slain, and the following day the Catholic priests, said to have all been Frenchmen, wore beheaded. tn addition to the Plggott party from Shou Ctmng the following perished at Tal Yuan: Mr. 8tok and wife; Mr. Simpson and wife: Mr. lleymnn and wife and three eh.IUIr.Mi; Mr. Farthing, wife and three children: Mr. Whltehouse and wife; Dr. Leavltt. wife and one child; Dr. Miller Wilson anj wife. The list Is very Incomplete but It Is certain that In All thirty-three white persons were sUln. According to re ports current here and at Pekln tlu sovernor of Shan SI sent a dispatch to the Pekln government reporting the massacre and demanding a reward. Thirty-fix's miles from Tal Yuan Is the English Baptist mission of Haiti Chou, on the great road. There were at Hsin Chou six persons, and their fate Is unknown. They are Mr. and Mrs. Dixon, Mr. and Mrs. McCurrun and an unmarried man anil woman. At the outbreak of the trouble It I re potted the entire party fled to the mountains, escaping safety from the vlllsge. Since then no word has been hord of them and their fate Is conjec tural. Owing to the friendliness of the local official nt Tal Ku. which Is about twen ty miles from ToJ Yuan, the American hoard mission there escaped the first attacks upon foreigners.1 About July M a band of three hundred Boxers went down anon, the place and at tacked the mission premises. One of the native missionary assistant was killed and the mob. smashing the gate of Ihe compound, effected an entrance. There were six persons In the mission: F. W. Davis. C. D. Williams. D. II. Clapp nnd wife. Miss Rowena Ford and Miss Susan Tartrldge. The three men took position on the roof of the mission building and made a cullant defense until their sparse ammunition was exhausted. The Boxers rushed them and thv were cut down, fighting to the last, with cluhb-d guns. The women then fled to the rear court, where thy were discovered and slain, as was al a native woman teacher. The bodI?s were thrown into tr, ilnmes of the burning mission building, aftr being beheaded The heads were tak?n to Tal Yuan and placed In the baskets on the gates and It Is said the hearts of the men were cut out and carried to Pekln. One hundred native Christians were killed at the same time. 85 of them be ing converts to the Roman Catholic mission. These oeople had no means of resistance and were simply slaught ered. Amonar the missionaries whose fate Is unknown up the present are Mr. and Mrs. Og len, of the Swedish mission at Yung Nlng Chou. 50 mil s southwest of Tien Chou Fu. They es caped with their child in a boat but have not since be'n heard of. At Chlen Yl two womn. Miss Palmer nnd Miss French, were, stationed. They tre known to have escaped as far as Hung Tung. Chinese soldiers report that some foreigners were killed In that vi cinity ANNUAL ATHLETIC CARNIVAL. Foreigners .t Paris Are Eager to Com pete for World's Champion ship Annually. NEW YORK. Oct. 3.

(Correspondence of Associated Press.) MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Sept. 10. The Nicaraguan congress is absorbed at present In the work of enacting laws and passing resolutions authorizing the president of this republic to decorate President Castro, of .Venezuela, with the title, and honor, of major-general of the army of Nicaragua. This Is a reciprocity affair and Is declared to be in consideration of the fact that only a few months ago President Castro conferred on PresI- dent r.elsy honorary membership In tht highest order of honorary dlstlno tlon conferred by Venesuvla on some of her great men. However, It claimed that the tru cause of tht decoration from Iisldent Castro Is the fact that In March of this year, when a revolution was In progress In Co lombla against the government, lYesI dent Kelaya permitted a Vrnesuelan steamer to leave Corinto, Nicaragua for Panama, loaded with Colombia revolutionists and rifles, cannon an.! munitions of war, In an endeavor to overthrow the government on the Isth mu.

L. P. McCarthy last night. I iraiy. It appear that Oleason called at his residence nnd re quested to see Father McCarthy. The first thing he raid to the priest wns: "Were you born In Ireland?" Father McCarthy replied: "No. I was born right l.r In Boston." Immediately Oleason raised a revol ver which had been concealed and fired four hot at Father McCarthy. One bullet took efTct In the priest' hack and another grased hi left shoulder and he fell. Oleason, after the shooting, rushed from the building. He went at once to a police station w hich he entered with the revolver still In his hnnd. He ap Driwched the desk and said: i am a good ratnniic. i nave a gun and I am afraid I will get Into trouble with It If I don't get rid of It You'd better take It." The wounded clergyman was picked up by h's servants, who hail henrd the report of the nh-!s. Olenson' first words to Captain Du gan were: "I never felt tx-tter In my life than today. At last I have done what I should have done fourteen years ago and what I have wanted to do all these years. I am only sorry that I dlil not kill Father McCarthy and I wish It wa the bishop of Portland, Oregon. I would willingly start today to walk to Portland on my head Just for the satisfaction of killing the blxhop, Fourteen yea:- go Oleason went to Portland, Or'gm. and later took up a soldier' claim In Washington terri tory. He returned to Portland and wa shot while he was there. He was locked In the same cell with the mur derer, he claims, and all because of the enmity of the bishop of Portland for him. He claims that the bishop hod pursued him all th-se year and per secuted him by the aid of Father Mc Carthy and other priests. He said that the bishop had Interfered In his affairs SORES AMD ULCERS.
