tiOns Are Begun.
Berlin, September s7.-The German
press and foreign office continue to deny
that Great Britain has rejected Ger
many's proposal They also continue to
blame the United states for the recently
revived Chinese obduracy and the re-
neWed evidences that the Chinese intend
to resume hostilities on a large plan.
The Berliner TagebIatt alone advises
Germany not to expect a favorable an
swer to her proposition from Lord Sails
bury, "as his wish to carefully nurse
intimate relations with the United States
forms the keynote of his policy"
The foreign Office told the correspon-
dent Of the Associated Press this after
noon, that Great Britain's answer had
not yet arrived, but that as soon as 1t
did, the government would be glad to
publish it, no matter what it's character.
Sir Frank LasceIeIs, the British ambas-
sador, who was interviewed regarding
the matter, said:
Great Brita1n's delay in answering
Germany's proposal is due to the fact, as
understand it, that Lord Salisbury has
asked Sir LClaude Mcdonald to report
upon the feasibility of the German
pIan.'
From two high diplomatic sources it
was learned today that all the answers
which have been received to-Germany's IS
proposition have one feature In common.
While accepting in principle the demand
for proper punishment of the r1ngIead-
ers, they refuse to postpone all peace ne
gotiations until after the settlement of
this one point. The replies Of Japan and
France are In agreement as to this.
Therefore, 1t cannot be truthfuily said
that Count Won BueIow's latest move
has proved an unqualified success.
