ated Press represontutivo has tnlked,
would be n vital blow to tho prestige of
foreigners, und would weaken thoir
status in China. The local English pa
pers fiercely denounce the proposals to
evacuate Pekin and say that tho Chinese
would interpret evacuation ai defeat.
The masses of Chinamen now believe
that tho Chinese arms are victorious.
The Chinese papers printed in Shang
hai contain lung ciicumstantial accounts
of ulleged Chinese victories at Pekin,
riou TbIii, and Tung ditto, and the
shops in tbo native q.iurler display for
sale lurid pictures of the celestial army
driving tho European soldiers into the
sea ut Taku, and cutting them to pieces
at Tien Tsin. They also show pictures of
the foioigu admirals being tortured in
the presence of the viceroys. Vice-Ad-mirsls
Seymour is represented with his
arms pinnioned, kowtowing before the
throne. The people accept these reports
and pictures as correctly representing
tho situation, and consider the reports
of tho English pres ns "merely foreign
lies."

Nnw Yokk, Spt. 4. A dispatch to the
Tribune from London save: No precise
news of the state ot affairs at Pekin is
yet forthcoming, although telegrams re
ceived lust night give some indication of
the situation down to a week ugo.
Several m jmbers of the customs staff
at Pekin arrived at Shanghai yesterday.
They state that the relief of the lega
tions was effected most opportunely, as
it was afterwards discovered that prob
ably with the co-operation of some traitor
a mine had been driven through one
small section of the boundary, and that
this mine the Chinese intended to fire
on the allowing diy .
The same correspondent says its is im
possible to exaggerate the feeling of
amazsment and disgust in Shanghai at
Russia's proposal to withdraw from Pe
kin. The Times' correspondent in Pe
kin has received from a friend holding a
high diplomatic position, a letter in
which it is stated that the origin and
motive of Russia's recent action are to
bo found in a desire to correct tho im
pression provided by Emperor William's
statement that the appointment of Von
Waldersee to the chief command of the
allied armies was largely due to the in
itiative of the czir,
This statement was not in accordance
with the facts, and cou'd not be formally
contradicted, so Russia adopted the ex
pedient of proposing evacuation of Pekin
sb an indirect method of frustrating
Germany's schemes.
