LOND0N'S LATEST NEWS.
Italian Minister Said to Have Left Pekin. July
3I-Escort Offered others.

London, Aug. 81 a. M.-Beyond the
official news given out. yesterday. the
morning papers contain no direct infor-
nation OF Importance from China. Thanks
to the dispatches of Sir Claude MacDon-
aid and Rear Admiral Bruce, there Is a
general disposition to take more hope
full view of the situation. The report OF
the appointment of Field Marshal Count
Won Waldersee as COMMUNICATIVE hief of
the international forces meets with gen
eral approval
The Rome correspondent of the Daily
Mail announces the reception there of
official dispatches from the Italian minis
ter in Pekin. Marquis Salvage Raggi. as
sorting that he left Pekin, July 81, pre-
so utterly at variance with the action
and intention of the other ministers
heard from that it seems almost incredi-
Bile. If true it opens up an interesting
field OF speculation concerning, the fate
of the Italian representative.
The text of the edict of Aug. .. author
izinS the escort of the ministers from
Pekin to Tien Tsin, is given out at the
view of the existence of hostilitics be-
tween certain Chinese rebels and foreign
powers. caused by the anti-Christian feel
ing of the Chinese people. We have af-
forded reasonable protection to the for
eign representatives in Pekin and the
Tsung Ii iamen has sent to the legations
letters OF inquiry and proposals for l..eir
safe conveyance under escort to Tien
Tsin, in order to avoid apprehension OF
further attack from the rebels before the
complete restoration of peace and order
in the capital.
I'VE have now, on the advice of ii
Hung Chang and I.iu Kun vi. to author
iZe Yung Lu to escort them to Tien Tsin.
II there be any rebels en- route trying 10
endanger the safety of the party, the Off
Gals have to destroy the rebels at once.
The Chinese legation believes that the
members of the foreign legation have not
yet left Pekin but that they will do so.
and declares that the edict would not
have been issued had not the foreign min
listers sisniiied Willingness 10 accept the
escort.
The Shanghai correspondent of the
Daily News wiring, yesterday, says:
limited States Consul Goodnow strongly
opposes Admiral Seymour's intention To
land 5000 troops. on the ground that such
an act would not be warranted by the
circumstances and would be likely to ere

COUNT Won WAlDERsEE
Said to Have Been Appointed Allies CON-
mander.in Chief in China.

Cologne, Aug. S.-The Cologne Ca
zette's Berlin correspondent says he
has it from authoritative source that
Field Marshal Count Won Waldersee
has been appointed commander-in-
chief of the allied troops in China.
Berlin, Aug. S.-The Post says Field
Marshal Won Waldersee will start for
China. in a fortnight.
The German foreign office. in con-
firming to the correspondent of The
Associated Press the report of Count
Won Waldersee's appointment, said
this was only to the command of the
German forces in China and that the
question as to whether he would COM
mand all the international forces had
not been settled.
The correspondent asked if any other
power had suggested an appointment,
but the foreign office official interview
ed declined to answer. Nevertheless
all the evening papers, including the
semi-official Norddeutsche Allgemeine
Zeitung publish the statement that he
has been appointed commander in chief
of the combined forces. 1t is under
stood that Emperor William has ar
ranged the matter personally and di-
rectly with the other powers.
Count Won Waldersee arrived at Cas-
sci. this afternoon, to consult with En-
peror William.
The foreign office has received the
| following dispatch from Herr Below

at Pekin. dated Isl Nan:
