MAY SEVER RELATIONS
China Said to be Getting Tired
of This Country.
MINISTER TsUl PREPARING TO LEAVE

n g Has Not called at the state Depart
ment for Months-"There Are Other
Ways OF Treating the United states BE-
sides Retsliation."
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4-Notwithstand-
ing the published statement that the
Chinese Government has appointed a new
Minister to this country to succeed Mr.
Isui Kwo Yin, there is not single indi-
cation of such thing on file at the State
Department, nor has our Minister at the
Chinese court informed our government
of the proposed change The Chinese
Legation here has no official advices Of a
change, and so the matter stands in the
public view.
The departure of the Chinese Consul.
General, Mr. Shen Woon, from New
York has put somewhat new phase on
the affair." and the intimation that Minis
ter Tsui is preparing to leave adds to the
rumor. It is intimated in diplomatic
circles that China is preparing to sever
her diplomatic relations with the United
States; that MIR Shen Woon's departure
is the first move; that Mr.. Tsui will with
draw, and instead of a new Minister
being appointed, tine Legation here will
be left in charge OF a charge d'affaires
The relations between the United States
and China have been somewhat strained
ever since the Blair incident. That ended
it will be remembered, by a very sharp
letetr from Acting Secretary Wharton to
China and the resignation of ex- Senator
Blair. Then came the Chinese Exclusion
act and the correspondence between Mr.
Tsui and his government Although
never fully published, enough of this cor
respondence got into print to show that
| China intended to act in the matter The
Chinese are always slow, but the last
letter to Mr. Tsui contained sentence
which is now considered significant. 1t
read: "There are other ways of treating
the United States besides retaliation,
and it was then interpreted to mean a
severance of diplomatic relations.
OF late the newspaper attacks on Mr..
Tsui in relation to the visit of New
| York lawyer here has added to the Minis.
ter's discontinue. But the most signifi-
cant straw in the whole matter is that of
| late the Chimes eNinister has not appeared
in any of the diplomatic relations with
! the United States He has not called at
the State Department for months, and he
! did not go to Chicago to represent his
country at the Worlds Fair dedicatory
exercises, but sent his first secretary, who
will be cnarge d'affaires if he withdraws
These facts are therefore causing tine
| talk of a probable severance OF diplomatic
relations between China and the United
| States.
