The general Inform ed the war department today and the officials of the stata department haw been advised of the situation. This German movement . i viewed with alwolute dismay here, for it Is feared that it requires the immediate decision by the United States govern ment of it whole line of policy toward the Chlnesj question. General Chaffee will be told that he is not to participate in this ramralgn. He has b en keeping the American forces In Pekln. ever hince the city was pacllted, 'simply as a ligation guard.

The foreign envoys have held a conference regarding the Chinese reply concerning the punish ment of the guilty persons named by the powers. The rply was considered unsatisfactory and the envoys decided tc Insist upon compliance with their .ciigmal den-and. Meanwhile great preparations are be ing made by the various commanders preparatory to a big expedition. Ap parently the only commanders who have enough of anything for a long campaign are the Americans, British and Japanese, The others are deficient, especially the Germans, ATROCITIES OF GERMANS. NEW YORK, Feb. 18 George Lynch, an English war correspondent who s.iw service in Cuba and South Africa, and wa then commissioned by two London papers to accompany the al lied for-.es on the march to Pekin, v rites the Herald a long description cf the terrible atrocities by the allies with which the campaign was accom panied. Mr. Lynch persoi ally vouches for the accuracy of the fact he re lates. He .ys: "But It Is to the Germans that we .nust award the laurels of outrage In mis campaign. They arrived late for tne hunt the . man hunt or man, won in and child hunt. There waa something particularly coldblooded aboi.t their proceedlrgs. They arrived when the cruntry ought to have been settling down, to avenge the murder of their minister and to carry out the mandate of their kaiser. "After marching into Pekln, leaving tneir path stained with the blood of hundreds o' innocent people who had Just ventured to return to their homes, the Geimans established a military reign of terror ?n their section of the city. Every day there wye executions. One day sixty-eight were ebot. They did not hesltat? to resort to the Orien tal methods for the purpose of extract ing evidence from their witnesses. The treatment of their prisoners, as I can personally testify from what I saw, was most brutal.'" Mi. Lynch takes the missionaries to task foi their -looting. Further on he lys: "The policy of the United States throughout this whole Chinese business has, to my mind, been' altogether ad mirable. I recollect being with General Chafee the day after the relief. He said to me:- ' 'We had to come right up to rel'eve tnese people in the legations and now the ooner we can get nut and go back home the better pleased I shall be.' "This appears to me the right policy, not aloi.e for the United States, but for altfht'rett of the powers." Mr. Lynch thinks the Chinesa spirit of rebellion is still very active and will be revived in the spring. LEGATION SITE NEEDED. NEW YORK, Feb. IS.
