ENGLAND DECLINES.
An Early Advance on Pelin Would be
 Suicide.

London, July 21.-The request of Sec retary of State Hay to the powers to make an immediate forward movement npon Pekin is not likely to meet with any success in England. Lord Sails bury is just as eager as the American secretary of state to adopt such a step, but he is practically convinced that it will not be possible until Ssp- tember, owing to local conditions and the allies lack of equipment.
 Beyond a courteous reply that Eng land is willing to cooperate in any movement that the commanders on the spot may deem advisable, noth- ing is likely to come of the latest Amer ican effort to reach the Chinese capital for all official advices receivtd here in dicate that a dash toward Pekin in the immediate future would be military suicide

State to be Reimbursed.
Among the claims lately before Con-
gress, but not included in what was
known as the Omnibus BILL" is one
for money due the state of West Nvir-
ginla. the payment of which has been
authorized BY Congress. The total OF
this claim is S2,O19 81, but no money
has been appropriated out of which it
can be paid.
The bill authorizing payment is un-
derstood to have been passed at the
first session of the Forty-nlnth Con-
gress and recited that the money was
due on account of expenditures by the
state for the United States In enroll
ing, equipplng and paying militia forces
to aid in suppressing the rebellion.
The items are the amounts paid re-
spectively to Major Ezra B. Morgan,
Captain Daniel Gould, Lieut.. Harvey
Geyer and Lieut.. L. Y. McAvoy, of the
One Hundred and Thirty third regi-
ment of state militia. 1t is stated that
the rank of these officers was properly
given on the party roll, but they were
paid as privates. Why this was done
does not appear in the settlement OF
the accounts. the United States refund
ing only the amounts paid and the state
subsequently made good the difference.
The next session of Congress Will
doubtless cause the state to be reim-
bursed.
