the matter from every point OF
view. As 4 measure of precau-
ton ii was finally decided to re-
quest the foreign ministers to re-
tire temporarily to Tien-Tsin for
safety.
ut was while the discussion of
this proposition was in progress
that the German minister, Baron
Won Ketteler, wasassassinated by a
riotous mob one morning while on
his way 10 the tsung-li-yamen.
On the previous day the German
minister had written a letter APP
pointing a time for calling at the
tsung-li-yamen, but the yamen,
fearing he might be molested on
the way. did not consent to h
appointment as suggested by the
minister. Since this occurrence,
the anarchists assumed a more
bold and threatening attitude, and
consequently it q not deemed
wise TO carry out the project of
sending the diplomatic corps to
Tien-Tsin under an escort. How
ever, orders were issued to the
troops detailed for the protection
of the legations to keep stricter
watch, and take greater precau-
ton against any emergency.
ITO cur surprise, on the goth of
the fifth moon (June 16), foreign
(naval) officers at Taku called up
or 10 Jung Kwang. the general
commanding, and demanded his
surrender of the forts, notifying
him that falling TO receive com
pliance they would at 2 o'clock the
next day. take steps TO seize the
fcrts by force. 10 jung kwang,
being bound by the duties of his
office to hold the forts, how could
lie Weld TO the demand? On the
Cay named they actually first fired
on the forts. which responded. and
kept up Il fighting all day, and
then surrendered. Thus the con-
fict of forces began, but certainly
the initiative did not ccmc from
our side. Even supposing that
China were not conscious of her
trae condition, how could she
take such a step as to engage in
war with all the powers simultan-
eouslv. and how could She, rely
ing upon the support of a%narchis-
tic populace, go into war with the
powers?

The declaration In the republican plat
form adopted at the Philadelphia conven-
ton, held in June, 1900, that the republican
party ''steadfastly adheres to the policy
announced in the Monroe DOCTRINE is
manifestly insidious and deceptive. This
profession Is contradicted by the avoweo
policy of that party in opposition to the
spirit of the Monroe doctrine to acquire
and hold sovereignty over large areas of
territory and large lumber OF people in
the eastern hemisphere.
We insist on the strict maintenance OF
the Monroe doctrine in all its integrity,

The note is said to have originated
