mean misery so widespread that 1t Is
almost unthnkable and n disgrace so
lasting that more than a generation
would have to pass before 1t could be
wiped out. They stand for lawlessness
and disorder, for dishonesty and dis
honor, for license and disaster ut

SERIOUS ASPECT I ].

Placed on tho Chinese Situation by
Report Of Admiral Bruce Russian
Troops Congratulated by the EN-
peror.
tCablegram Of Associated Press.)
LONDON. August 20.-4 a. m.-Rcar
Admiral Bruce's report OF the continua-
ton OF the fighting in Pekin-puts a
more serious aspect on the Chinese sit
uation than was, generally expected
here. 1t appears efrectually to dispose
Of all statements that the Empress
Dowager had fled, although circum-
stant!al accounts OF her departure con-
tinue to come from Shanghai. Despite
defeat the Chinese are apparently re-
solved to make a desperate struggle, not
only In their ancient capital. but also in
other parts OF the empire. Chang Chi
Tung. vIceroy at Hanltow. and Llu Kun
VI. viceroy at Maxim. according TO nd.
Vices from Shanghai, have threatened
the consuls thatfif the person of the
Dowager Empress is not respected they
will withdraw from their present
friendly attitude.

next move Will be an agreement for an
armlstiee. Thls may be undertaken by
the commanders of the Chinese army
md those of the allies on the spot
where the fighting. according to the
latest reports from Pekin appears still
to be In progress. This accomplished, !,
the question ofsthe withdrawal. OF the,
foreign armies, the payment OF indem-
mites, and many other problems may
be left to commissions duly appointed
to adjudicate them. Ii Hung Chang
has already been appointed q plenIpo-
tentiary by MS government to ;negotl-:
ate terms Of peace and In this capacity
he{made an Intellectual attempt to stop
the progress Of the allies in, thelr,march
on Pekin. Whether Earl II will be
continued in that capacity by, the i'm,
perlal governmentSis not known here,
but such seems altogether probable, as
with his well known ability: and his ac-
quaintance with. the. world, he would
be able to make possibly. better terms
than any other Chinaman.
Eleven Nations Invaded.
There are eleven nations pointed out
the same official, which have suffered as
result Of the Chinese disturbances.
All will expect a settlement of damages
which have resulted from the boxer
outbreaks, the murder Of missionaries,
and the destruction of legation prop
erty. Spain is one Of these, and. al
though she has not participated in the
relief expedition, she has suffered alike
With the others and will expect to be

stated authoritatlvely, that up to this
time there have been no exchanges be-
tween the United States and the other
powers regarding the steps to be taken
in the future to bring China to terms
for the losses that have been incurred.
The sole interest of the United States
up to this time has been the rescue OF
the legationers. which is now an ac-
complished fact. Informal discussion
has taken place between the President
and his cabinet as to what this gov
ernment will do to secure rcparation for
