REMOVAL OF GENERAL JULIUS srAHEl.
APPOINTMENT OF DAVID 4. BAILEY.
Reception OF shs Chinese Embassy.


lOEsA Ana't -
The removal of General Julius Stahel,
and the appointment Of David II. Bailey.
as Vice Consul General Of Shanghai,
China, will still further complicate the
Congressional investigation into the arairs
OF that consulate. A subpoena daces tecana
had been issued to General Stahel, requir-
ing him to furnish q transcripto OF the bank
accounts of Consal-General Seward snd
Vice ConsulGeneral Bradford during the
time they had charge Of the Consulate.
The subpoena, served upon Mr.. Stanei
after his removal. viii be Of no avail, and .
new subpoena duces teca1i will have to issue
from the House Of Representative to Mr..
Bailey after he assumes his duties at the
consulate. This will throw the inves;iga-
ton back at least a month. and prevent
the Committee from having their report
ready by the time Congress viii meet in
December. Il has already been charged
| that the State Department is responsible
! for DELAYING the investigation in every way
possible. and this change in the manage
ment Of the consulate at this time is at
least regarded as in bad taste. Mr.. Bailey
is now on his way to Shanghai, and will
arrive there some time next month. In the
meantime anew subpoena will issue for
him, and will be transmitted through the
State Department by the next mail.
O6tEtk8If - ANU
meeting to-day . communication to the
effect that the Chinese Embassy will arrive
here on the LIST Of September. He was re-
quested to prepare a programme for their
hospitable reception, as the President is
anxious 10 do everything in his power to
conciliate China.
The Star of this evening says: We hear
upon the authority Of q member Of the
Chinese Embassy that the visit Of McChin,
the senior Ambassador to Hartford, is to
consult with his associate, Mr.. Wing, and
to rest for a few days in the Mission House
while preparations are being made fer the
Embassy. 1t is, perhaps, not generally
known, but it is a fact, that the Chinese
Government has a spacious building in
Hartford. in which the entire Embassy can
be accommodated and cared for by their
own countrymen. They will tarry for a
few DAYS simply to prepare for their pre-
sentation to the President, and their per-
manent residence in Washington. The
statement that the Embassy have rented
the Stewart mansion for a residence is in
correct. No choice has yet been made of a
house.
