Uneasy for the Californian.

San Francisco, Sept. 1.-The big
steamer Californian, bound from this
port for Manila with nearly 5000 tons
" supplies for the army IN the Philip
pines, Is now out forty-five days and
20 per cent reinsurance has been Of
fered on the vessel. The steamer Is
overdue from Honolulu to Manila easily
fifteen days, and the general impression
among shipping men here Is that she
has broken her shaft or met with some
other accident. The Californian was
launched az the Union Iron Works on
May u and this is her maiden voyage.

cabinet had fully considered the eXpe-
diency Of so doing The correspondence
is unique in the history Of diplomatic
exchange. II may be said to illustrate
clever move by which the United
States government again has assumed
the lead In prescribing the policy OF
the powers respecting the Chinese trou-
bic. This was accomplished By the
state department ayalling itself OF the
russian note 70 address the powers
with an inquiry as TO their policies, an
answer to which scarcely can be
avoided.
MEANING OF PROPOSALS.
Various meanings mays be placed up
on the statement Of the two principals
10 this correspondence. Thus, on the
one hand. IL may be- noted that while
Russia announces a purpose to with
draw her troops from China. still as
TO the occupying force at Nieu
Chwang, a condition Is attached that
almost negatives the proposition as 10
that point
Respecting our own attitude II APP
pears that, while believing the best
course 10 pursue is to remain In Pee
kin, our government Is still willing to
withdraw. Perhaps this means that II
there is TO be a separate action by the
powers In China, the United States
proposes to deal with the situation with
a free hand.
IL may be noted In connection with
our withdrawal statement that where
as Russia proposed TO withdraw from
China, our offer Is 10 withdrew from
Pekin.
CHAFFEE WE'LL ADVISED.
A significant fact In this connection
Is that Gen. Chance. who Is well ad-
vised OF the situation having several
days ago been directed TO prepare for
Just such an emergency as that pre-
cipitated By the Russian action con
tlnues his preparations for wintering
the American troops On China. Indeed,
unless the men are afoat and out OF
Pei Ho within the next six weeks, they
are likely TO remain In China perforce,
being iceobund.
Gen. Chaffce was further advised to-
day OF the developments In the situa-
ton. a CompendlOus statement Of the
points In the RussO-American CORE
spondence being cabled 90 him for his
guidance. As bearing further on the
prospects OF the future, " may be noted
that the war department officials state
that the government has not cOnsid-
cred The question Of the evacuation Of
China.
Il Is scarcely expected mat even with
the aid OF the cables a complete accord
can be reached upon this last PROPOSE
ton Immediately
