Official Advices

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-The Chinese
Minister was at the State Department to-
day and had talk with Secretary Hay.
The Secretary said afterwards that there
was no change In the condition of Chinese
affairs so far as he knew and no late Off
c.al dispatches. 1t was thought that the
Minister'S call might have some relation
TO the critical condition of affairs in China
and the dispatch of American warships
to Chinese ports. But Mr.. WI said his
visit had no connection with the general
situation In China. but related to pending &
routine affairs. He received an official
dispatch, but it brought no developments
on the reported death of the Emperor or on
the disturbed condition of the foreign ele-
ment at Picking.
