MURDER OF BARON Won KETTELER
MR.. WI SAYS THE GERMAN MINISTER
TOOK HIS LIFE IN HIS OWN HANDS.


TOOK HIS LIFE IN HIS OWN HANDS
Washington, July 11.-BI!uister WI said this
morning in regard to the assassination Of Baron
Won Ketteler. the German Minister in Peking,
that in attempting 10 pass through the streets
to reach the Tsung-li-Yamen Baron Won Ket-
teller took his life in his own hands. The Minis
ter he said, had requested an audience Of the
Chinese Cabinet. to which they would not ac-
cede. knowing the dangers from the lawIess
rioters and the anti-fOreign element that would
attend the Minister'S journey through the city.
Nevertheless the Minister attempted to reach
the Tsung-u-Yamen and met his death.
Minister WI also spoke Of the bombardment
Of the Taku forts The Chinese military com
nandant there. he said had no authority what
ever to surrender the forts on the demand of the
Powers, and had no alternative except to return
the fire Of the foreign feet.
AS to the foreign Ministers in Picking he said
that they we're requested BY the Tsung-H-Ya-
men, in order to insure their safety. 10 leave
Pektng for Tten-Tsin when the rioting and
anarchy in the Chinese capital became more and
more rampant. The Ministers did not take i'm
mediate advantage Of this offer. and later the
troubles spread through all the intervening
country between Peking and Tien-Tsin, so that
the greatest chance Of safety lay in their
naming at the capital rather than risking the
still greater peril Of journey across country.

LACK OF PRECAUTIONS BY LEGATIONS
WHAT JAPANESE NEWSPAPERS SAY OF THE
SITUATION.

San Francisco, July Il (speciaD.-some curious
light is thrown by English newspapers in Japan on
the situation in China and the remarkable lack Of
the Boxer uprising had assumed large proportions
The Japan Gazette" published at Yokohama
said in recent issuei
The outside world is not to be blamed for not
believing in the urgency OF the crisis when high
ofhclals and other authorities compIa acently shut
their eyes to what is going in China.
From the comment Of the native Japanese papers
il is plain that IT is trade prudence and not mill
tary rivalry that is responsible for the present
dangerous straits of foreigners besiezad in the
Peking legations.
This view is corroborated by a statement in a
leader OF The Hong Kong Press" for June 6 The
writer said referring the obvious purpose Of the
Manchus TO drive out foreigners and the fatuous
ignoring OF unmistatable signs Of uprising that
there little prospect of bringing the Chinese
TO their senses except by display OF force. This
was, however, opposed by the American Minister
who is reported to have said when the French
Minister proposed that troops should be imported
for the protection of the legations thar II would
better demand the complete reform Of the
police system at Peking, that he thought the
Boxers being drilled for fun rather than from
any idea Of njurtng foreigners and he did not like
hurt the feelings of the Empress Dowager by
bringing up guards 10 the Capitol
The Press" adds:
Fortunately the American Minister was unsup-
ported none of his colleagues being ia enough
10 share in his scruples. and the guards were
sent for and the lives of those in the Legations
were rendered comparatively secure.
