THERE'S TROUBLE AHEAD.


By scripps- -McRas Press Association.
London. Aug. 90 1t is be-
ginning to be feared that Wal
dersee's mission to China may
lead to international compli-
cations.
Russia, France and Germany
his chief hackers desire to 60
much farther than England and
America to whom the restoration
of order will practically end the
Chinese crisis.
Almost simultaneously with
Waldersee's departure a large
German army is fastening east
ward as if the game in China
was just beginning and recent
events considered as a mere
farce.
If these governm ents have de-
signs upon England, America is
not party to them and may be
obliged to oppose them.

Cheng, is already in possession
of Chinese territory on the
southern bank of the Amoor.

Washington, Aug. H. Until
Mr.. Conger is heard from aud
Gen. Chaffee reports ON the sit
uation at Pekin it is impossible
for the president to decideswhat
is best to DE done for the epro-
lection of Americans and Ameri-
can interests in China. The
army and navy of the United
States are in the sections where
their services have been most
needed; and they will continue in
company with the allies for the
preservation of order until
government is established at
Pekin with which this country
and the European powers can
deal. Clothed with plenipoten-
tiary powers as peace commis-
sioner, Lii Hung Chang will re-
present the Emperor, who, with
the Empress Dowager. is report
ed to have retired to the interior.
1t is the distinct purpose OF
the administration to withdraw
the American forces from active
operations in the field and to
bring them back to the United
States, when the safety of all
American citizens in China is as
sured. To do this will take con-
siderable time, as there are
negotiations to be conducted for
the establishment of q thorough
understanding that will prevent
the possibility of future Chinese
outbreaks against the foreigners.
The United States is not seeking
Chinese territory, and this gov
ernment will not permit itself
to be drawn into international
agreements that will make it q
party to any disturbance of the
territorial integrity of China
Indemnity must be collected, 4,
however for the loss of American
life and injury to property, and
to this will be added the cost OF
the protection demanded by
Chinese treachery and weakness
toward the American legation.
Secretary Hay has stated the
purposes of this government and
they will be adhered to.

London, Aug. 19.-It is known
now that the allied army entered
Pekin only after an all day bat
tie, in which all the international
contingents at the front partici-
pated. Indeed, what few addI-
tional details have come out
arouse a fear that the complete
casualty list will equal If it does
not exceed that report after the
battle of Tien Tsin.
The Japanese and Russians
appear to have assaulted the
eastern wall of the imperial capi-
tai, while the Americans and
British, fighting side by side as
they have done throughout The
campaign, attacked the southern
gates.
Nothing is yet known of what
transpired inside the great walls
after the international forces
had battered and fought their
way to Legation street. But
there are indications that the
allies entrance did not terminate
the active hostilities. Another
battle either has been fought or
is impending inside Pekin, where
the unrelenting Gen. Ii Ping
Heng is reported to have in
trenched himself with 18.OO(
troops.
