WASHINGTON, July 27.-Unless some
authentic assurance as to the conditions
OF the Americans in Pekin reaches the
state department within day or two, the
administration is likely to abandon what
ever faith it has manifested thus far in
the truthfulness of Chinese information
The Chinese minister is confident that
within that time there will be news from
Pekin of a character to soothe the most
skeptical, and he is also confident that
this will be good news from the Ameri-
can point of view. The state department
is still receptive, though looking with
growing GOODNESS on the numerous edicts
and kilograms which are coming from
China. all without bringing any news
The contributions of the day were from
Consul General Goodnow at Shanghai
and Consul Fowler at Chefoo. So much
of their messages as WAS given out for
publication related to the welfare of GER
tain American missionaries who have
been made the subject of inquiry by rela-
tives in this country The cables man
gled these messages ard there is reason
to doubt the value of the information at
tempted to be conveyed through them.
Mr.. Goodnow also had something to
say about the political situation, and it is
| believed that part of his message was not
of any encouraging character. At any
rate, it was withheld from the press,
probably because the department did not
regard it as wise to give the stamp of its
| approval to matters which Mr. Goodnow
wishes to be taken in purely speculative
sense.
Ever since the receipt of Tientsin oI
the autograph message from Mr.. Conger,
dated Pekin, July a, state department of
ficials have had grave doubts as to the
authenticity of the proper message at.
tributed to him, dated Pekin July rs
There have been many little sidelights or
the message that afford ground for sus
picion, and now the British have added
their quota to the growing distrust o.

LEWISTON, Idaho, July II, Ieoo.-ITo
the Honorable the Mayor and Common
Council of the City of Lewiston THE
undersigned respectfully represent and
petition as follows: That, as they are ad-
vised the charter of the city provides
that before levying tax for payment for
water for fire protection, the council shall
define the district which shall be bene-
fitted by such tax; that the water COM
pany has not system by means of which
it can furnish fire protection to improve
ments upon the hill, and therefore the
property and improvements upon the hill
cannot be benefited by any tax levied for
fire protection, and, consequently, as your
petitioners are advised and believe, the
property upon the hill should not be in-
cluded in the district to be benefited by
such tax.
Wherefore, your petitioners respect
fully pray that the property upon the hill
be not included in any such district and
be not taxed for fire protection until such
Improvements are made in the water sys-
tenn as will furnish FIRE protection to i'm.
provements on the hill property.

A World War Possible.

If Europe cannot settle the Chinese
problem without war among the powers
our civilization is but a sham and pre-
tense. If the butchery at Peking is as
horrible as rumor represents it to be all
the nations of the world should Loyalty
and unsel6shly cooperate to make such
an atrocity impossible in the future.
But i'll order to do this it will be neces-
sary to convert crusade nomnally in
behalf of humanity into a sordid, land
grabbing, marauding expedition China
should be assisted to establish order and
to maintain a government which will
protect the lives of foreigners and give
equal commercial opportunities to all the
world. But if the powers attempt to dis
member the empire--if each is animated
by cold, calculating, sordid spirit
which seeks advantage at the expense of
the other powers -the result may be a
world war compared with which the
massacre at Pelin would be mere bag
atelle. If the nations cannot solve the
Chinese problem without flying at each
others throats 1t is difficult to see where
in our civilization is superior to that Of
China. The Chinese are slaughtering
foreigners because Of racial, religious and
political differences. If the christian
.nations'' of Europe, in order to make
the Chinaman behave himself, take his
land from him, appropriate his property
and then, after the theft is committed,
go to war with each other because the di-
vision Of stolen goods is not satisfactory,
they will prove themselves no better
than the Chinese. The cynic who said
that all civilization is merely a veneer
will then be fully vindicated, while the
Chinaman who has surrounded himself
with wall in order that he may exclude
what he considers an inferior civilization
should not be censured too severely for
his exclusiveness. Baltimore Sun.

The principal clause inserted is in the third

and is as follows:

THE CITY's WATER SUPPLY.
4 Renewal of Efforts to Secure an
Additional Conduit.

Although Congress failed to take favor
able action on a proposition made by Cen
eral Wilson, Chief of Engineers, having for
its object an increased supply of water to
meet the probable future needs of the city,
official interest in the matter has not flag
ged, and the question will be taken up
again very shortly by local authorities. An
additional conduit. It is suggested, might
soon be built from the source of supply to
the receiving reservoir. This conduit
could be built entirely on Government land
alongside Of the existing one.
An estimate OF $S.G00. to cover the ex-
penses of a proposed survey for the new
conduit, was submitted by General Wilson
in his last annual report.
II is hoped by the officials that Congress
will see the wisdom of the desired legis-
lation and authorize the appropriation Of
this money.
The present consumption and waste Of
Potomac water averages daily about 3d.
100000 gallons, and the maximum daily
capacity Of the conduit from Great Falls
is $4,000. 900 gallons. According to the ratio
Of increase Of population during the past
decade this maximum will be reached at
the end Of the next len years.
The new conduit is designed to increase
the limit OF supply to $4,000. 600 gallons
per day, a quantity believed to be suf-
ficient for a population Of 900, O00 people
