Ims&lla TeU of th Cnttian Commeata nd Pointed Wit ot tlie Cvole o( the Inaia aid Doploroa tho Taalahed Maarlo o Hla Ram. . Charles Sumner had no more sense of humor than a hippopotamus,, but there was .something excessively: humorous about his colossal sell consciousness, of which It is no paradox to saj he was ap parently unconscious. - - s n ; His egotbm -was ' inordinately vast, though innocent in its simplicity. It was far from conceit and ted to no disparage ment of hla associates. Indeed, I doubt if he ever Instituted comparisons. , Proba bly Grant, whom he hated and abused, came the nearest to siting him up when ha said: "The reason Sumner doesn't be lieve In the Bible Is because he didn't write it himself.:' , The self consciousness of Hoscoe Conk limr was quite as egregious as that of Mr. Sumner, but hla egotism was tinged with vanity and compounded with scorn, con tempt and disdain. . He was a past mas ter in the gentle art of making enemies and well versed in the vocabulary of de rision and hatred.; Hamlet might have had him in mind when In his soliloquy he mentioned, among other things that make life not worth living, ."the proud man's contumely."'.' The - hinges of his t knees were not pregnant,' and he had none of the thrift that follows fawning.. When I first knew him, be was. in the meridian of bis great powers.; - He possessed an ex traordinary assemblage of physical and Intellectual attributes that made him by far the most prominent,' picturesque and Impressive figure la public life. -, ' His presence was noble and command ing, his voice and elocution were superb, his bearing and address somewhat too formal, but marked by dignity and gVace. His vocabulary was rich and ornamental, sometimes almost to the borders of the grotesque, but fertilised -with apposite quotations ' and - allusions ' that showed wide reading, especially In poetry,- ro mance and the drama. Some hostile -critic described- one Of hia speeches as a "pur ple earthquake of oratory," .But he was always heard with delight on any theme. Had' he possessed greater .flexibility of temper,: been less inexorable in hla ani mosities and learned how to forgjet where he could aot forgfva there was no height he might not bave reached, even the highest in the peopleV gift. ! But he would not flatter Neptune for his trident nor Jove for bis power to thunder. ,-,v Toward the. end of his career in the senate he tell out: with th newspapera, aud sometimes, when be arose- to speak, every reporter in the press gallery, clos ing his notebook, th whole crowd would rush. noisily out into the lobby,, leaving every seat without an occupant. He flushed at the Insult; but, speaking of Journalism afterward, he was moved to remark in his propitiatory way that th only people In the, world authorised to as the first person, plural, "we," In speaking of themselves, were -"editors and men with tapeworms!. - His allusion to Governor Cornell aa "that lizard on the hill" and to President Arthur, after fats- refusal to abdicate In favoT of Mr. Conkling, ss "the oris ox In American politics" and hia refusal to speak for Blaine In the . campaign of 1884 on the gtound that be was "not en gaged In criminal practice" are well known -illustrations of his methods of compelling his political associate to be either his. vassals or hfs enemies. ,. i But Jove did not alwaya sit on Olym pus, i Sometimes- he descended to th plain, though never quite on terms of absolute equality with mankind. - He was inclined to "Jolly', those whom he Aid not feel diSDOsed to bally. r When Thunnan once asked blm In a debate on some legal proposition why he (ept looking at blm all th time, Conkling replied with elaborate raillery that he turned to him as the source and form lain of the common law as at the call of the tnueailn the Mussulman turned to Mecca. . - ' - . Another favorite butt for his chaff, banter and ridicule was Judge Dsvid Da vis. He was a Falstaff In proportions snd good nature and the beat gueaaer in American politics. Lincoln appointed him justlcsof the supreme court in 1802. The greater part of his active Hfe waa passed on the bench, where he waa accustomed to having the last word snd to delivering opinions rather than defending Uiem, which is not good preparation for -the deliberations of the senate. He was-aa inveterate compromiser and composer of strife, which led Conkling to allude to him la debate as "the largest wholesale and retail dealer In political soothing sirup the world had ever known r -. Later, in the discussion of the same measure, Davia interrupted Conkling by way of correction or anticipation, which Conkling resented by quoting ore rotundo two lines from one of Watts hymns: "TU knows the words that I Would (pmk ' Er iroa my opening Ups Uwjr bmkl" To Davis' elephantine attempt to Smooth over his break by some farfetch ed eulogy Conkling replied: "Pr&Uw imdRrrd is eeiuure In disguiss." , The stenographer did not recos-ntie the quotation, so that one of Alexander Pope's most polished lines stands ss an oriKinnl, extemporaneous phrase of Mr, Conkling'. It seems Incredible tlint a pcrsonnjte of surh vast and umisnnl powers, who for 20 years was a rnont prominent actor In the rri'it tlnima of puhlie afTnirs, who thinl ho lure a upnee In the thought of the pi-ople. who was enrlcnturcl, Jam-puniii-il, pini i tl anil revih-l without stint or ii'!-!-mho, KiKinid have fit, hi! no at---o- h:' V fn.'il the Ineiil'-ry of mm. l.vi-n to hr. - of I.--I r--m ---nf ji-nn c i-who Kiirvivo tie I. iisi nlr"i,l? t,w-nne n i'f--,nn remt l - ' i- .-,.!!,', nriiMi.-,! nlnnvs for t- T I. 1 - II i j i !

Wabbinoton, July 11. -The Chinese Minister Wu has delivered to the State Department a cablegram from the Chineae Imperial Government, disclaim ing any 'responsibility " for the Boxer troubles in China, and saying that the engagement at Tien Tstn was the direct result of the bombardment of the Tako forts by the foreign fleets. ' The facts In the case however are that the forts began the bombardment upon the veasels.

The - Cossacks by their admirable scouting prevent the for eign troop from being crashed by the mere force of numbers of the Chinese. Admiral Remey is at Cbefoo with the Ninth Infantry and a battalion of Amer ican marines.'- Chefoo is now considered the danger point snd both the Engtlsb and the American admirals fear that the place cannot be held. j ' The fighting around Tientsin "July 8 and 4 waa the hottest - yet experienced. The British forces had 80 killed, s. Chi neee troops numbering 75,000 attacked the city from three sides. . The defend ers bad 18,000 men. :; A Russtan compa ny of Infantry was nearly wiped out, having 118 men killed and wounded. The Germans lost heavily. A heavy rain saved the allies, t The fight was re newed July 0 and guns from th British ship Terrible silenced the Chineae artil lery after an engagement of eight hours.
