Accumulates daily that China has long

Washington, July 10. A decidedly
more hopeful feeling witli regard to the
Chlneso situation was apparent iu till
administration circles this evening.
Tho tido of MUitimout, which had boon
markedly pessimistic, turned with the
announcement of the victory of tha
allios ut Tien Tsin, and tho oapturo of
tho forts nnd nativo city, nttd gathered
further strength from Ministor Wu'i
ca 1)1 eg in m declAring that the foreign
ministers nt Pekin woro safe July 0.
Asido from theso dispatches, the ar
rival of tho presMent nnd tho Bpocinl
cabinot incotiug called to consider the
situation woro tho features of tho day.
Tho cabinet mot at J:80 this afternoon,
less than an hour a (tor tho president
reached tho Whito llouso. Over 100
newspaper men thronged tho corridors
whilo tho cabinet was sitting behind
closed doors. Tho scene resembled tin
hottost days of tho Spanish war. Ther
woro present Soerotnrioa Hay, Hoot,
Long, Gago nnd Postniastor-Gcnoral
Smith. At tho conclusion of tho ses
sion, whioh lasted two aud n hull
hours, Secretary Hoot guvo out tliu fol
lowing formal statement of tho action
of tho cabinot:
"Tho president has determined that
tho facts known to us do not require
or justify calling an oxtra session of
congress. Should futuro developments
indicate that ho is miuhlo to do what is
required with tho means uow at his
command, and tho action of congress la
necessary to furnish either- men or
money or authority, ho will not hesitate
to cal J it together."
The decision that an extra hYhsIoii of
congress was not demanded by existing
conditions was tho outcome of tho
showing which both Secretary Knot
and Secretary ls)i)g muito as to tho
force that can. ho thrown into China
without tliu authorization of additional
troops by congress, and also the decid
edly morn hopeful fueling entertained
by tho presideut and members of bis
cabinet as to tho safety of Minister
Conger mid tint other foreigners in
Pekiu, duo to tho cable of Ministor
Wu, reporting tho safety of the minis
ters July 0, two days after tholr re
