(0 B. The First Invoice of our Large SPRING STOCK has Arrived, With a Big Dot more to arrive on next boat.

Senator McBride, who was before the committee ! with a number of telegrams, stated that the level of the Columbia had been lowered from 30 to 24 feet, and urged the emergency of an appropriation. The committee is considering these items, and probably will allow them because of the pressing needs involved. 001. Senator Proctor has introduced a bill in the Senate appropriating $500,- 000 for the purchase of the right. The Ordnance Bureau is opposed to the pur chase, however, on the ground that a superior explosive may be obtained. * * * Mail advices received by the State De partment from Edward H. Conger, United States Miuister at Peking, show that he has not been acting jointly with the representatives of other powers to compel the Chinese Government to sup press the “Boxers” and other anti-foreign societies. He has been making vigorous representations to the Tsung-Li-Yamen in behalf of American missionaries, but, so far as the authorities are are in formed, he has not threatened that the United States will land troops in China should the “Boxers” be allowed to con* tinue their operations. Such a threat, if made, would certainly be disavowed by this Government. The authorities un derstand that the German government has made representations to the Tsung- Li-Yamen, and it would not be surpris ing if it should have declared its purpose to protect foreign missionaries in Shan Tung Province, and its troops at Kian Chou are available for this purpose. The Boers appeared in considerable force six miles from Mafeking, and, to prevent lieing outflanked on both sides, Plumer had to withdraw on Ram.athla- bana, subsequently retiring to his base camp. The engagement lasted three hours, and the retirement was carried out in good order under a heavy fire.
