CHINA IS MAKING PROGRESS
EMPEROR DETERMINED TO ES-
TABLISH MANY REFORMS.
Urges the Press to Free Discussion
of Public Observation-Disclosures Ito
Arrives at Pekin.

Washington, Sept 15.-Minister Con-
ger informs the department of state
that the emperor of China, by imperial
decree, has sanctioned the opening of
a national university at Pekin, in con-
nection with which schools are to be
established in the provincial capitals.
Another dispatch from Minister Con-
ger would indicate that the emperor of
China has taken a long stride in adj
vance in civilization by encouraging
the newspapers of his empire to pub
fish a truthful and full account of
daily events and to be both bold and
fearless in the discussion of current
affairs. He has by public proclama-
ton made the Chinese Daily Progress
an official organ and has declared that
articles which appear in Chinese news
papers, though apparently displeaslnS
to him, shall not on that account be
suppressed.
He has directed that important ar
ticles of current events in the leading
papers shall be marked and presented
to him promptly. He assigns in his
proclamation the reason for this that
he desires to extend his knowledge of
affairs, both Chinese and foreign.
ALLIANCE WITH JAPAN.
Pekin, Sept 1.-THE Marquis Ito, the
Japanese statesman, who is understood
to be visiting China for the purpose OF
arranging an offensive and defensive
alliance between China and Japan, ar
rived here today and was received at
the railroad station by notabilities spe-
cially ordered by the, emperor to well
come the distinguished visitor.
An edict has been published, extend
ing the postal operations throughout
the empire and replacing the present
system of government couriers.
The frequent edicts, introducing re-
forms and cutting down expenditures
prove that the emperor's advisers are
bent upon a policy which can only be
the result of complete change of
opinion. Most of the Chinese and the
old European residents look upon the
change as being too sweeping and irri-
tating to the official classes. But it is
evident the emperor has decided to
abolish many abuses, and his efforts
are welcomed by all the enlightened
Chinese, who. however, counsel mod
