EXTRA SESSION

ly, while not saying much in public, we
Are deeply aroused tonight orer the
ClthicBu situation, not so much because
o( the present horrible conditions, but
over the possible outcome. Much p
prehensun is felt uleo that the relief
expedition tuny bo overpowced and
annihilated, but the greatest fear is of
international complications tbut may
urieo if the great powerB do not act
unitedly in suppressing the uprising.
RhoulJ Russia co in und take the lead
or ait independently, there is danger
that they will contend theieafter for
supremacy in China. Or, if the European
powt-re act in concert without giving the
Americans a fair ehow, it is feared they
may uter combine to suppress American
advancement in China. This fear is, of
course, premature, but some people here
tlnuk if the worst rumors are confirmed,
it may be necessary to cull an extra
eesiji u of congress definitely to outline
course to bo pursued.

ROOSEVELT
Move to Put Him on the Ticket With
McKinlcj it is Said He Would Not
Decline.
Philadelphia, June 17. The long
advertieed stampede for Rossevelt four
days before the nomination can be made
is such as to indicate it probably cannot
be checked. Nothing but a positive dec
laration from Governor Roosevelt that
lie would not accept the nomination after
it was made would stop it, and he will
not uake that declaration. Some of the
governor's personal friends have been to
him today nnd urged him to make every
effort to prevent the nomination, but he
realized that he is In no position to de
clare in advance that he would refuse a
nomination after it was tendered. Look
ing to the future, Governor Roosevelt
and his friends realize that the declina
tion of a popular and enthusiastic notnia-
tion for vice-president made with the
idea that it will contribute to the success
of the party in the campaign would no
doubt mean oblivion.
It isaccepted by the leaders that Roose
velt was sincere in hisenphatlc declara
tions that he would not accept, and was
not a candidate, but he now realizes
that the popular and political movement
to force the nomination upon him has
reached a point beyond his control.
The attitude of the administration,
and especially that of Senator Hanna,
who has been looked to by the delegates
to give the cue to the wishes of the presi
dent, forms an interesting feature of the
situation as developed today. It has
been the general impression that it only
remained for Hanna to give the word or
for some person with authority to
indicate the wishes of the president, and
that the convention will line up for the
man selected.
While the situation is uot beyond the
control of the administration forces to
prevent the nomination of Roosevelt, it
is realized that such action, in view of
the general stampede, would be unwise.
From the first, Senator Hanna has de
clared that the convention should make
tho nomination, and now that it is about
to do so, even under the manipulation
and with the assistance of such expeii
euced politicians as Piatt and Quay, it
would be impolitic for Senator Hanna to
make a fight to defeat it, even if the
man selected is not the selection of the
administration. The only man in the
race who seemed satisfactory to the
friends of the adminlstiation was Secre
tary Long, and his candidacy did not
flourish because a Massachusetts candi
date did not impress the delegates as
giving additional strength to the ticket.
With doubt as to tho choice of the ad
ministration, and with the desire to
make New York safe, with a belief iniiong
many delegates that Roosevelt was the
one man ho would add strength to the
ticket East and West, it was not difficult
to start the stampede, and tonight it is
generally accepted that tho national re
publican ticket will bo McKinley and
Roosevelt.

A Difficult Problem.
It is among the most difficult prob
lems of natural science for one to become
expert in several lines. J. E. Adcox &
Co., by their combination, have over
come this difficulty in a practical man
ner. J. E. Adcox is an expert watch
maker and is good on jewelry, optical
work and engraving, while Theo. H.
Liehe is an expert optician and is good
on watch repairing, jewelry work and
engraving. Their price is as low as con
sistent with good workmanship. They
are prepared to do all work in their

and Utah have continued in the repub
lican column from the time of their
admission until the gold declaration of
the St. Louis platform. That carried
them over to the silver party. Of the
western states, Oregon is the, only one
that has remained true to the republi
can cause in subsequent campaigns.
The republicans, in discussing this phase
of the question, say that this has been
largely due to the persistent efforts of
the Oregonian, which would not allow
the republican party or the Etate to fce
Bryanized, and which has made it plain
to the people that the silver issue was
of no advantage to them. Now" that the
democrats are getting ready to pass on
to other issues, and that silver is to be
one of the several issues in the coming
campaign, the republicans begin to be
lieve that there is a possibility of carry
ing the silver states.
The democratic position on the ques
tion of expansion is one of the reasons
which gives the republicans a great deal
of hope in the coming campaign. It is
believed that the expansion issue is as
strong in Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming
and Montana as It is in Oregon and
Washington. The democrats, who car
ried Washington by 13,000 in 189G, have
abandoned all hope of that state, The
only hope they have of carrying either
Montana, Idaho, Colorado or Utah ii
because those states are large producers
of silver, and they believe that tho
mining interests are still uppermost.
FROM BAD
TO WORSE
Situation in China Becomes Alaruiinu
Rumored Massacres in Pekni.
Loxnox, June 10. A special dispatch
from Hong Kong says all the Pekin le
gations have been destroyed, und the
German Minister, Baron von Kotteler,
killed. There is no confirmation of tho
report, nor the later report of fighting
between the British and the Chinese.
Dispatches from Shanghai, dated last
evening, state that Admiral Seymour's
force is in a tight place botween Lang
Fang and Yung Sun, with enormous
masses of soldiets in front, while tne
Boxers aro cutting tho railway in the
rear. Tho Kiang Nan areonal, outturn
of Shanghai, is sending vast quantities
of ammunition north. All is quiet at
Shanghai, but trade has been disrupted.
Is Etated that 7000 Americans aro
coming from Manila, ami mat largo
foiccs of Japanese are also en toute. Tho
wires souts of Tien Tsui have been cut,
and the city telegraphically isolated,
According to a speciul from Vienna, it
is stated iu diplomatic c'ucles there that
the question of intervention in under
discussion by the powers. It is proposed
that Japan shall act us mandatory of the
poweis ic-establish order in Pekin nnd
elsewhere. This, it is said, emanates
from England, and it is supported by
Germany and Austria, but it la doubtful
if Russia mid France will agree to tho
proposition .
