"In dlaeualng th" Chinese uprising," said he, ' it ahoiiid have been borne in I mind that the rebellion was confined to1 three of the nineteeen provinces, while the other alu'een were quiet and in them foreigners were afforded protection. I am liic.'iti d a thousand mile from IV kin, wherw negotiations are being con ducted, but I am near enough to know- that throughout the EhM it Is coining more and more to be realized that by following the course laid down by the United riiaieg and in no other way can the exatlous problems presented be solved with Justice to all. The Chinese trust the united States thoroughly, knowing as they do that this country has no land-grabbing designs and. while they don't hope to escape the payreent of Just retribution, they know that back of all our demands there Is a spirit of Justice and fairness.

Both he and Prince Ching balked at signing the Joint note when they considered the question, until the court waa heard from again, explain ing that the emperor's edict directing them to put off signing prevented them from using the Imperial seal until per mission shall have been received, which permission they claim to expect hourly. It la known here among the Chinese that the extreme anti-foreign element la now In power and that the court fav orites now advise the empress dowager. Of these the best known are LI Chuan Lin, a cabinet minister; Gen. .Ma and Tung Fuh Sing. Their views coincide perfectly with those of the southern viceroys, particularly with those of Chang ChJ Tung, who has threatened to rebel if the note Is slgneJ. LI Hung Chang and Prime Ching both strongly urge the signing of the agreement and they believe that their counsels muht prevail. They have point ed out. In the strongest possible terms. that the very existence-of China ne cessitates the acceptance of the terms of the powers snd that failure on the part of China to sign may mean tha allies will. s join As the state of the weather makes such a step feasible, send troops over the country and that parts of the empire heretofore untouch ed will feel the scourge of the war.
