Went Against His viii.

London, Aug. 1s.-Shanghai dis
patches say that Emperor Kwang Su,
accompanied the empress dowager to
Hsian Flu much against his will.
Prince Tuan commanded the rear
guard of the imperial escort, of which
Boxers formed 65 per cent. 1t was eX-
pected that Gen. Tung Fuh Slang
would follow after the arrival of the
allies. All the palace treasures were
sent to Hsian Fin.

Empress Leaves Picking.

London, Aug. ia special dispatch
from Shanghai says:
1.-THE allies entered Peking August Is. It
is believed that Yuan-Shi-Kai's troops have
gone thence to Shen-Si to protect the en-
press, who. according to reports received
by local officials here, with Tuan, the i'm
perial household and the bulk of the army
and Boxers, left Picking August 7, for
Hsian-Fu."

The Euture.

grOceeulnS TO discuss Jne prODaDlI-
tiles of a cessation of hostilities, the
Morning Post assumes that the United
States are willing to abandon any idea
Of further aggressive action, but it
questions the disposition Of Germany
and the other powers to agree to such
a course.
The Berlin correspondent of the
Morning Post says he learns that no
formal request Tor an armistice has
yet reached the powers, and that it is
improbable that any such request
would be granted.
The other papers comment guard
eddy on the general situation, owing
to the lack of definite news when the
editorials were written. Most of them
advocate a stern inquisition regarding
outrages and the punishment of the
leaders, even if they have to be pur-
sued all over China.
The Daily Graphic, in a paragraph
apparently inspired, says there is no
| reason to believe hat any of the pow
ers will repudiate the previous under
standing to respect the integrity of
the empire and the dynasty, adding
that the proposal to land a British
force at Shanghai originated not with
the British government, but with the
Chinese, who at the same time urged
that this should not be done If likely
to lead to international complications.
This" says the Daily Graphic, "dis-
poses of the story that the viceroy of
Nankin changed his mind under the
influence of the consuls. Her majesty's
government, we believe, have no in
tention of contesting the right of
France or the United States to land

London, Aug. 1s.-"Peking was re-

message was received Friday evening
at the imperial customs Office in Lon

message that has reached England in
confirmation of the earlier reports.
Admiral Remey's dispatch not having
arrived in time for publication in the

not come from Tientsin OF Taku, only
about 100 miles from Picking and the
base of the allied forces. Moreover,
the appeal of Ii Hung Chang for an
armistice was dated the 18th, and
showed that Earl Ii did not know at
that time of the alleged retirement of
the imperial party from Picking. He,
however, was disposed to credit the
reports, even in the absence of official
information. He reckoned that since
the allied forces were at Tung-Chow
there had been ample time to cover
the short distance between that place
and Peking, so that the reports tailed
with his own calculation on what was
likely to have occurred.
Grayest Crisis Removed.
If it proves true that the le~gationers
are relieved. the grayest crisis is re-
moved. But there remain many mo-
mentous questions to be determined.
1t appears to be accepted that at least
some of the powers will keep their mil
itary forces in China until at least all
questions growing out of the crisis are
settled. This is expected to involve
questions not only of money indem-
nifty, but of territorial extension on the
part of some of the European partiesto
the controversy. 1t isnot believed that
tn United States will be a party to any
such territorial controversy, as the
declaration of Secretary Hay, made at
the beginning of the trouble, forecast
ed the purpose of this government to
seek to preserve Chinese territorial and
adRinistratiYe entity.

INCREASE OF IRRIGATION.

The preliminary work OF the census
Office In collecting data relative to the
arid and sub-humid regions shows that
during the past ten years vast areas have
been reclaimed by irrigation. both by
ditching from running streams and
drilling for subterranean waters.
Where only q few years ago the sage
brush struggled for existence In the
midst OF a waste Of alkali and sand. to-
day are fields OF waving grain and bios
soming orange groves. Hundreds Of
miles Of canals and bitches have been
constructed; hundreds OF wells have
been sunk. and thousands OF acres OF
land have been cultivated In zones where
