City Of Tien Tsln Destroyed By. The

No Hope of Advance Oa Peklu Until
September. Bnssla Has Secret ;

Special to Journal.' . , ,
Wabhwotob, July 19 The allies have
burned the city .of Tten Tsln to toe
ground in vengance for the massacre of
the en coys at Pekin. . , .
It was realized that no advanced could
be made upon Pekin until September, o.
Minister Wu begged Secretary Hay
not to agree to the destruction of Tien
Tsln, which he said would require a cen
tury to rebuild. . ,
A-cablegram to the New York Journal
from Shanghai says that Bussia Is secret
ly negotiating with Prince Tuan who Is
at the bead of Jhe Boxers and that the
next step will be for Tuau to Invite the
Ozar to restore order la China. It will
then be said to the Powers that the Em
press Dowaesr personally; ordered the
slaughter of the envoys and that Russia's
Invading troops would then be Joined by
those of Prince Tuan to seize . and hold
Pekin for Russia. - ; t ' ' " ,
ft Is believed now' that Viceroy LI
Hnng Chang Is poaitlvely - acting in
concert with Prince Tuan, and that his
trip north from Pekin is In that pur
pose, , ? ' "'
.The Chinese loss at Tien Tsln when
the. city was taken was over three thous
and. . ,
Lieut, General Grenfall Is to command
the British forces In Chins. . '
- The Department of Stale strongly sot
pects Minister Wu and .believes that
his dispatches are merely liej. , It is be
lieved that the Chinese government Is
not only Identified with the Boxer move
ment hut that the Chinese government
is directing It. lW t - ' '
" All the Viceroys are undoubtedly lu
league with the Boxer movement end
are getting secret Instructions from Pe
kin end trying to temporize wi'.h the
orelgn powers In order to gain time to
perfect .defenses -especially at Shang
hai. -,.'. 1 J. M i ' ,

; Nkw Tons, July 18. The Herald will
publish tomorrow the following dispatch
from Washington: - ' A -:
"Though reports are being received an
nouncing the safety of the foreign Min
isters In Pekin, there 1 no prospect thai
the allied troops will reach the Chinese
cspltal before the latter part of Beptem
ber, end some ot the officials- fl x Kovem-
bor as the month during which they will
arrive t their destination. " '
. VThis Government Is extremely' anx
ious that the allies shall commence their
march on Pokln,'. not only because
prompt action will prevent the spread ol
the revolt, but because there is a chanoe
that the Ministers may still be holding
out, and In this ease they should be res
cued with all dispatch.. Minister , Wu,
who called On Secretary Hay today, ex
pressed the opinion that the legation of
ficial bad been secreted ' by .the1 .Pekin
Government ; ;C; .' j ...,.,
: "A tentative proposition Is sow under
consldoratlon by the f owers for , the ap
pointment of n International commis
sion 16 Investigate the" entire Chinese

from all parts of China the refugees are
are flocking to the treaty ports and
every ship Is bearing them to Japan.
Nagasaki, the port at which they first
arrive, Is alrradp uncomfortably crowd
