The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1900-06-27

NEW YORK. June pa dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
The dense fog has not lifted from
China. The wires are down in every
direction from both Pekin and Tien
Tsin, and Chinese messages received
at the seaboard from the interior
towns are not entitled TO credence. An
old-time official who resided in China
for long period told me yesterday
that he had followed the details closely
and thai, apart from the dispatches
from the admiral at Taku, there had
been no authentic information for a
fortnight from any source.
THE most significant and ominous
fact in the situation" he added, was
Prince Tuan's presence as comman-
der Of the Chinese forces near Tien
Tsin. since this was a proof that the
most powerful leader Of the court was
at the head Of an antl-foreign move
ment. and that well-armed government
troops were massed on the side OF the
Boxers. This meant that China was at
war with Europe. America and Japan"
This well-informed official could not
find in yesterdays dispatches any evil
denee that the relief column under Ad-
miral Seymour had reached Pekin or
the legations were safe.
The Chinese assurances were OF no
value. and the news from China was
tissue of rumors. This informant de-
clined to believe that the legations were
safe. since he remembered how easy it
would have been for the Boxers and
the soldiers to command every Iega-
tion, except the Austrian one, from the
wall which lowered above them, a
short distance away.
Two facts stand out in this tangled
maze Of uncertainties. One is the ne
cessity for an army Of from 5O,OOO to
100000 men, II China is to be rescued
from anarchy. and the second is the fact
that the Chinese troops are well armed
and in better condition for warfare
under modern conditions than they
were in the campaign with Japan.
