The dispatch from St. Petemhnnr i.

held support from the Pao Tine Vu
expedition and other aggressive mili
tary moves.
Moreover. It Is regarded as oults In

The expectation, the publication adds,
Nothing is yet known about similar

life of march. The total value of the
seizures will probably be very high. LI
Hung Chang s request for the U78.000
taken from the treasury has received no
reply.
There Is considerable doubt about
whether th United States is entitled
t keen this gold, whatever its amount
may finally be determined to be, be
cause this government has been pro
ceeding on the theory that no war ex
ists in China. The expedition of Gen
eral Chaffee has been repeatedly defined
as a rescue expedition and not an In
vasion. The United States has kept ud
communication with the officials and
n preventatives cr the Chinese govern
ment and has insisted on rerardlns- the
whole trouble In China an the rernilt of
inrernai disturbance which did not Jus-
ury open war. at is therefore doubtful
wh-th"r the American government can
take the contents of a Chinese govern
ment treasury as spoils of war.
Nevertheless, it Is extremely unlikely
that the gold will ever be returned to
China, even that part of it Identified
an l claimed by LI Hung Chang. It
may not be held as spoils of war for
the reason given, but it will probably
oc iiem as pan payment or the in
demnity which America will demand.
It will certainly not be returned until
the peace negotiations are concluded
nor will any final decision about what
to do with it be made until that time.
Certificates for at least a large part of
It have been deposited in the war de
partment's account with the treasury
department. They will stay there for
a long time to .come certainly until
the peace negotiations are concluded
and probably longer.
The chief point of speculation now.
therefore, is not what will become of
the loot but what its amount is. The
sums already reported cover onlv the
amount taken at Tien Tsln. Officials
have no Information to give concerning
any sums which may have been taken
at the cities along the Pel Ho or at Pe
kin ItsHf. There was undoubtedly a
great deal of looting at the capital, but
whether any share of It fell to the
Americans is a question concerning
men no iniormatton is yet obtainable.
This is not surprising, however, ln view
of the fact that Tien Tsln was taken In
July and that It was three months later

CHARLES HEILBORN & SON
EX-MINISTER EXECUTED.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 16.-Confirma-tlon
has been received here of the
execution on July 20 of Chang Yen
Hoon, the former Chinese minister to
the United States. Chang was a loyal
adherent of the emperor and a warm
supporters of the latttr's reform move
ments. When the empress dowager
supplanted the emperor two years ago
he was banished to Nebradoo but
through the intervention of the Ameri.
can and British ministers, his punish
ment was commuted to banishment In
me uisinet province of Kashgaria. It
now appears that the emnress Hou-aver
taking advantage of the reign of "ter
ror at I'ekln. and knowing Chang's in
fluence with h emperor, ordered his
execution by decapitation.
Chang was considered by those fa
miliar with Chines? affairs as one of
the ablest men in China. He had been
decorated by the queen of Great Brit
ain and by the emoeivra of rtiuaio
and Germany. He was pre-emlnentlv
the most liberal and enlfehteneri nf h
Chinese statesmen, nnd had his life
been spared till the occupation of Pe
kln by the allies, he doubtless would
have been recalled and taken an bo.
tlve part in the pending negotiations
