NO CONQUEST SAYS BERLIN. 'Now, FHzslmmons evidently believes that I am easy game, but I don't see how he figures it out. "Jeffries knocked him out in eleven rounds, and I made the champion look like a novice for twenty-three rounds. If 1 can beat a man for twenty-three rounds who stops Fitzsimmone in eleven, 1 think I have the call on the latter. "There is no doubt in my mind that I can defeat Fitzsimmons at any time, and just to show that I have confidence in my ability I will wager him oh the result of a battle between us.

The fight can take place any time agreeable to Fitzsimmons. This proposition will hold good whether McCoy defeats me or not. "If there is one man in the ring whom I believe I can whip, it is Fitzsimmons." BASE BAT Games Played Yesterday. NATIONAL LEAGUE. St.

From all the raids made about half a dozen kegs of beer and some whisky were found, together with the usual number of glasses, beer pumps and temporary bars. MAYOR DREW WrAS PLEASED. Mayor Drew was well satisfied with the work of the day when he called at the police station last night on his regular evening visit. He decided to make even plainer to the officers what was expected of them, however, and when the night force was gathered together for roll NEXT THE FUTURITY. It.

Keene Thought to Be Sure of thorities had desired. It was stated today that messages may be sent from here to our representatives in China specifically calling for more detailed infor matlon. Aside from the consideration given to particular questions raised by the Conger dispatch, the appeal of Li Hung Chang and that of the southern viceroys, the cabinet also had time to 'ook over the broad field of Chinese affairs. There was no effort, however, at this early stage, to outline a general policy. That will come later, and will be, to a considerable extent, the outgrowth of the government's action upon the various issues as they may be presented.

It was stated tonight that the reply of this government to the appeal of LI Hung Chang for a cessation of hostilities and the appointment of a peace commissioner has not yet been transmitted to the viceroy. It is suggested in diplomatic circles that the delay is probably for the purpose of ascertaining the trend of opinion of the other powers, Inasmuch as the presumption is that an identical application was made to all of them. There is some public discussion of the ubject of a leave of absence for Mr. Conger, so that he may have an opportunity to recuperate from the trying experiences of the past two months. It is said, however, that no suggestion for a leave of absence for the minister has yet been made to the State department, although the officials express the opinion that he a entitled to one.

Mr. Bryan addressed a large audience of Saunders ccunty people at Wahoo, the county seat, this afternoon.

The point is thirty miles north of Lincoln, and the trip there and back was made during the afternoon. The speaking occurred under the trees in the court house yard, and the largest part of the enclosure was well filled, notwithstanding one of the heaviest rain storms of the season had just passed over the place, leaving the ground very wet andi uncomfortable. The speech was one hour in length. Throughout it was an appeal to Republicans to vote the Democratic ticket. Giving his reasons for this appeal, Mr.

Bryan said: "I want to talk to you Republicans, believing that you are just as anxious to kelp your country' and help your fellows by your vote as the Democrats, the Pepu-lists and the Silver Republicans are. If I did not have faith in the honesty, in the patriotism and in the good intentions of the Republicans, I would not make speeches at all, because I would not want to make so many speeches and do so much work simply to please men who agree with me. But I desire to show you if I can that it is your duty to vote with us this fall." Mr. Bryan today completed his speech to be delivered in Topeka Thursday in response to the notification of the Populist nomination. The speech is about 4,000 words in length and deals largely with the trust question.

Mr. Bryan also considers at some length the prosperity contention of the Republicans.

Chief Ramsey in introducing Mayor Drew to the force said that they had been letting the joints get away from them to some extent, and that the mayor had something to say on the subject.

Mayor Drew said: "I have been sitting in my office in the city building for several days past and have seen large quantities of beer and other liquor going up the street to the various joints of the city. It soon became evident to my mind that there was something wrong, and that you gentlemen were not doing your duty. "Some months ago I made an order that Only Object Said to Be the Re-Establishment of Order. Berlin, Aug. 21.

Referring to Li Hung Chang's latest request to Washington for mediation, a high official of the German foreign office said to the correspondent of the Associated Press today: "Germany is waiting to see what answer the United States will make. If Washington is convinced that Earl tLi represents any responsible Chinese government, it could of course undertake a mediatory role for establishment of peace, but Germany-is confident that in any case the United States will not separate themselves from the concert of powers." Asked if China offered a satisfactory indemnity for the murder of Baron von Ket-teler, the German minister, whether Germany would be willing to make peace, the officials replied: "Matters have not yet advanced far enough to go into that, but there is no question of territorial conquest or of inflicting heavy blows, but merely of the re-establishment of orderly conditions in China." The German papers r.re discussing what is to be done next. The Vossiche Zeitung asserts that Germany will not go beyond ether powers in demanding expiation for wrongs done, but will go as far as the rest. It says that the demand for satisfaction must not degenerate into a brutal cry for vengeance. The Vorwaerts, the socialist organ, sharply blames the government for refusing all information concerning its future policy in China.

The Berliner Post maintains that it is vrttnature to think that the diplomatic negotiations alone are now sufficient to secure satisfaction for the murders and guarantees for the future. General attention has been attracted by an interview published in the Frankfurter Zeitung between that paper's correspondent at Tokio and Lieutenant von Kron, who was wounded in Admiral Seymour's expedition. Lieutenant von Kron says: "At the beginning wounded Boxers were sent to the hospitals at Tien Tsin; but it was seen later that this was a mistake. Hence an order was given to kill all Chinamen able to stand; not even to spare the wounded, but play to make no prisoners whatever." St Louis Cincinnati 8. St.

He tried to leap to one side, but because of the wheel's grip on his left arm he could not get away from the danger. He cried aloud in his terror.

The engineer of the new watch, hand on lever, acted almost mechanically at the alarm. He stopped the machinery. No more dramatic rescue could have been contrived.

The Daily Chronicle says: "Mr. Conger has at last opened the eyes of the state department to the real character of orientals." The Daily Express prints this morning a long letter said to have been written by Vice Admiral Seymour, in which he stoutly defends his action in advancing to the relief of the legationers when he did, saying: "Two or three times our prospects were very dark and disaster seemed probable. Yt-t I never regretted that I had started, as I could not have respected myself if I had not done so." Referring to the difficulty of controlling mixed troops and to their characteristics he says: "The Germans we admired most, but for dash go, none surpassed, or perhaps equalled, the Americans.

And when the jointists find they are not being patronized they will go out of the business, for the jointist is just like any other man, and runs his joint for the money he can get out of it." The remarks of the chief of police reminded Mayor Drew of something else he wished to say, and he told the officers that their place of business was in the alleys as well as in the street. "Why, gentlemen," said he, "about a week ago I got off of a car at the transfer station and went through the alley back of Kansas avenue from Eighth to Sixth, and I found five ber wagons in the alley discharging their goods to some of the joints. I couldn't see a policeman anywhere. I do not wish to censure un. necessarily, and I know your force is small, but you surely ought to know about these things.

Mayor Drew said last night: "I have stood this joint business as long as I can, and the way the thing stands now there will either have to be a change in this condition or the change in the per, sonnel of the police force."
