dent OF the United States. which as

yentlon you have conveyed to me. Is

have carefully examined the plat
form adopted. and give 10 II my hearty
approval Upon the great issue OF the
last national election II is clear II
upholds the gold standard and indorses
the legislation OF the present con-
gress, by which that standard has
been effectively strengthened. The
stability OF our national currency is,
therefore, secure as long az those who
adhere 10 this platform are kept In
control OF the government In the first
battle, that OF 1896. the friends OF the
Eoid standard ana OF sound currency
we're triumphant. and the country Is
enjoying the fruits OF that victory.
Our antagonists, however, are not
satisfied. They compel as to fight a
second battle upon the same lines on
which the first was fought and won.
While regretting the reopening OF this
question, which can only disturb the
present satisfactory condition OF the
government and visit uncertainty upon
our great bus mess enterprises. We ac-
cept the issue and again invite tho
sound money forces TO join Ia winning
another, and We hope permanent
triumph FOR an honest financial sys-
ten. which WIN continue inylolable tho

Answers In REGARD TO Russia's Pro

FRANCE FOR, GERMANY AGAINST
The Impression a. Nashlnoion Seems 20 be
that Great Britain VIII favor Sol
dlert Remaining

Washington. Sept THE latest ga
preston as to the attitude OF the pow
crs on the evacuation OF pekln comes
from the United States ambassador az
Paris, Gen. Horace Porter. who has
advised the authorities her tha the at
titude OF the French government is
favorable TO the position OF Russia.
Almost simultaneously with this ais.
patch from Gen. "orter came another
from the American charge d'analrs at
norlln giving the attitude OF Germany
on Russia's proposal This IN sub
stance states that Germany. while
anxious to avoid any friction between
the powers. regards the conditions at
Pokln such as TO require the oontlu-
ued presence Of general forces there.
Neither Gen. Porter nor Mr.. Jackson
gaye the text OF the answers. but only
the substance OF the positions taken
by the two governments
These two highly important COM
munlcatlons bring the Chinese nero-
tlatlons TO a very advanced stage.
though they are not yet concluded. as
all Of the answers are not yet In. The
German and French answers, however.
clearly show the alignment OF the pow
ers. II Is generally thought that Ger
manys attitude IN favor of rrmaln-
ing al Pokln will be acqulescod In by
Italy and Austria. as these two coun-
tries act with Germany on political
questions. Moreover direct word has
been received here which clearly fore
shadows Austrla's position In favor OF
remaining at pekln As to the pur-
poses Of Great Britain there Is an abb
solute lack OF official Information.
though little doubt Ia entertained that
since Germany has taken the attitude
Great Britain will follow suit In favor
OF remaining at Pekin. The position
OF japan likewise Is lacking definite
ness. although Il ia believed IN the
best posted quarters that II other ma b.
tlons remain at Pekln Japan will deem
II expedlent TO remain there also. II
would seem from this thGi France Is
the only government 10 give concur
renee 10 the Russian proposition. al
though the United states has express
ed purpose OF following Russia's
course. unless tho other powers
brought about o modification OF Rus
slas position. Thus far Russia has
not expressed any purpose " modify.
H. her original position. II was stated
authorltatlvely Thursday that Russia
had not ordered the departure OF her
minister or troops from Pekin up q
this time. 30 far as the United state
/ government Is advised. II a. stated
also that no new preparations have
been prepared but that the questiOL
Is practically the same as when hr.
presented. namely. as 10 whether tho
troops viii remain or be withdraw
from rekin. The receipt OF the CONF
munlcatlons from Berlin aad Paris
brought about numerous conferences
between the president. Secretary Ront
nnd Acting Secretary - state nm and
also between Mr. Hill and Mr. Adoe.
II was gathered from these meetings
that another note was being prepared
by the unlted states. but the authoii-
ties aid not feel disposed 20 give any
intelligence as 10 lts nature.
