Evacuation of Pekin Will Look Iika
Chinese victory-A Heavy Hand
Necessary.

New York, Sept. "a dispatch to the
tribune from London says: 1.-THE Chi
nese minister here has communicated In
the foreign office an imperial edict. dated
TAI yuan Flu, appointing commissioners
to negotiate terms of peace in associa :
ton with Lii Hung Chang. Grave dis
satisfaction is felt at the names of the
commissioners. Eearl Lii a asked that
Nlceroys Liu Kun vi and Chang Chin
Tung and Prince Ching should be nom
mated. The court has ignored his sns-
gestion for the nomination of the reform
ing Yang Isl viceroys and appointed in
stead Prime Ching. Yung Lu and Hsu
Tung. The two last named are violent
re-actionary manchus.
Little hope can be entertained of sue
cessful negotiations with a board thus
constituted and it is hoped that the
powers Will decline to treat with the two
nlanchu mobiles. 1t is clear that the
southern viceroys are to be prescribed
and prosecuted for declining to join in
the recent anti-foreign movement and
unless pressure can be brought to bear
in their favor by the powers their lives
and liberty may be in danger. This rev.
elation of the persistent anti-foreign
policy, of the Chinese government makes
the Russian proposal seem more h
ever impolitic. So far from being fright
ened into repentance, the empress dow
aSer and her faction are teadily en-
gagged in carrying on the crusade
against alien influence. Some more strik-
ing measures may be required to produce
the requisite impression. whereas if the
troops should withdraw from Picking.
Chinese insolence and audacity will re-
ceive a fresh impetus and reform will be
indefinitely postponed.
1t is possible that the replies of Ger
many. Austria and Italy to the Russian
proposal mi take the form of a state
ment of the conditions under which those
powers will be prepared to conclude
peace with China. with reasons against
withdrawal from Picking until the terms
are arranged.

A BAD IMPRESSION.
Withdrawal of Troops Will Be Sign of
Weakness.

Berlin, Sept. Sit is doubtful" said
a foreign official, whether the foreign
officers have received Instructions from
their governments as to the matter of
withdrawing troops, for if the troops are
withdrawn all the foreign ministers
must go also. because the natives would
murder them n claim it as a triumph
over the powers, thus creating a bad
impression upon the Chinese. In vari-
Gus countries the newspapers are exag-
gerating the situation. There is no Ques-
ton of disagreement yet, for Russia's
proposition is merely under discussion.
1t has neither been accepted o reject
ed"
The Berliner Post in an inspired article
defends the position of Field Marshal
Count o Waldersee as chief in a mill
tary and diplomatic sense, saying hat
this must necessarily be the arrange
ment, since it would be impossible to
ask instructions from the different home
governments in each case. particularly
when a quick settlement was requested.

New York, Sept. 5.-A dispatch to the

the present situation the estimates to be

largest presented in the history of the
new naval establishment. Chiefs of the
naval bureaus are preparing estimates
Tor the fiscal year ending June 30, 1902.
me estimates of the navy department
for the present fiscal year amounted to
$'4,243.5O0. Though congress failed tn
appropriate the entire amount asked for.
the chiefs of the bureaus have deter
mined to make another effort to obtain
the sum they deem necessary. The indi-
catlons are that the estimates to be sub

B0ERS HOLD OUT

ARE TROUBLESOME SUBJECTS
Ladybrand Garrison in Danger-De.
Wet Menacing Roberts Trans

New York, Sept. 5.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from London says: Lord Rob
erts' annexation of the transvaal is gen
orally regarded as proof thar in the opin.
ion of military authorities both at home
n in South Africa the var is practi-
cally over.
The war office received a dispatch from
Lord Roberts giving an account of a
slight engagement north of Pretoria in
which the Beers We're driven off losing
a hundred rifles and a large supply of
ammunition and a few prisoners. About
the same time a party of Beers made an
unsuccessful attack on the Johannesburg
water works. More serious fighting took
place on Monday in the mountain passes
near Lydenburg where General Butler
was fighting.
The Burghers We're 1000 strong with
several uns and they seem to nave held
the British in check. since the position
was not carried by night all. and a eel
umn was sent by General Roberts to as
sist Butler. 1t is thought, however, that
Botha's army was fighting to cover the
removal of his transport and supplies
from L~ydenburg and that he will retire
to the mountains further north, where the
next stand will be made. The effect Of
the proclamation will be to cause trans
Vaal ~burgherS now in arms to be treated
as It)tlS ana IoilSlt ~ r..-tIonl IlSItS. IL
is hoped by this means the hopelessness
of further resistance will be speedily
brought home to the Beers. But the
experience of the Orange river colony
is not altogether encouraging. After six
months annexation the burghers are still
in arms in the eastern free state and in
sufficient force to put a British garrison
in danger of ~surrendering. kilograms
from he Basutoland frontier show that
the Boer commanders nave surrounded
Ladybrand and reduced the defenders to
such straits that they have burned all
their stores in the market place to pre-
vent their falling into the enemy's hand.
General Hunter is fastening to the re-
lief of the garrison and 1t is hoped that
he may be in time to save it. DeWet is
said to be north of Middleburg watching
for an opportunity to intercept British
communications.
Mr.. Chamberlain who has been at his
country house for the last few weeks
came to London yesterday, and was bus
lily enga ged with officials of the colonial
office. His visit is understood to be in
connection with the South African situa-
ton and the approaching conclusion of
the war.
Much activity is also exhibited at the
headquarters of the party organization
where it is confidently expected that a
general election will begin about SIX
weeks from the present time.
