GERM ANTS EMBARRASSMENT.
The Russo-American Proposition Was
 Wholly Unexpected.

Berlin, Aug. 31.-The German govern ment is considerably embarrassed by the joint proposition of the United States and Russia to withdraw from Pekin and to recognize Iii Hung Chang as an intermediary. It was wholly un- expected here that Russia would join the United States in such a step. Count Won Buelow, the foreign minister, con- siders the new situation thus created so important as to compel him to abandon the vacation trip he was about to take. This evening the semi-official press ex- press the views of the government in cautious terms.
 A foreign official made the following statement on the subject: Germany has not yet answered Russias request to withdraw from Pekin. The other powers do not regard the military situ- ation there as precarious. So far as Lii Hung Chang is concerned, Germany is ready to acknowledge him as China s representative in peace negotiations, if he shows himself properly accredited, but as to this feature of the case noth- ing is yet known here"
 The tatement of the London Times that a German bank is negotiating with Chang Chi Tung, the Woo-Chang vice. roy, for a loan of a million taels is pos lively denied

GEN. GOMEZ DECLINES.
Does Not Care to Go to the Cons stitution-
 al Convention.

Havana, Aug. 31.-General Maximo Gomez has declined to accept the nomi- nation offered him by the national par ty to the constitutional convention. He says he has always kept out of politics and does not wish to enter now. The national party did not join with the other parties in telegram, sent to- day to President Mckinley, asking that the clause referring to the future rea- tions between the United States and Cuba in the order calling the constitu- tional convention be modified The par ties which did sign the dispatch call the nationalists unpatriotic. The na- tonalists reply in substance that they trust the Americans, but that, if the United States government should final ly say that Cuba must accept a pro- tectorate they would refuse to help in drawing up the constitution.

Opinion of General Miles on the Chinese
 Trouble.

Chicago, Aug 31.-The acute stage of the Chinese situation has not been reached in the opinion of General Nel- son A. Miles. He regards 1t as quite possible that a general conflict of the powers may result from the conflicting interests in China, and he believes that an attempt on the part of some of the powers to partition the Celestial empire among themselves would be sufficient ground for the United States to resort to force.

Washington, Aug. 31.-The Russian note relative to the withdrawal of Rus sia from China and the United States response thereto (printed in full on page of this paper) were made pub lie to-day by the state department af- ter the cabinet had fully considered the expedency of so doing. The corre- spondence is unique in the history of diplomatic exchange. It may be said to illustrate clever move by which the United States government again has assumed the lead in prescribing the policy of the powers respecting the Chi nese troubles. This was accomplished by the state departments availing it.

London, Sept 1-4:20 a. m.-In the ab- sence of further news from China, the papers are again filled with discussions of the Russo American proposals, which, so far as may be gathered from the representations of opinions in the various European capitals, are calculat- ed to subject the unity of the allies to an exceedingly severe and dangerous test In Germany especially these pro- posals are so diametrically opposed to Emperor Williams policy that they nave produced a feeling akin to con- sternation.
 As the Daily News editorially re- marks, Count Won Waldersee was as- suredly not sent to assist in restoring the empress dowager."
 It is recognized on all sides that Ger mans decision is the pivot of the mat ter. Emperor William intended by dis patching Count Von Waldersee to have the master hand in the Chinese settle ment Russia has taken the wind out of that officers sails, and is now posing as the friend and protector of China.
 The morning papers express the greatest suspicion of the intentions of JIuSSld. The Il1n6S eullOTldl, WHICH fairly represents the opinion of all, says;
 The advantages of Russia's policy are not manifest and it is very doubt- full whether it will recommend itself to powers like England and Germany that have large commercial interests in the establishment of a stable and pro- gressive government to replace the re- actionary clique which has impeded all progress and development in China in recent years.
 Negotiation with Lii Hung Chang would be 8 conformation of government crimes and the throwing away of all the advantages gained by these occupa tions of Pekin. Much mischief may have already been done by the hesita- tion to enter the Forbidden City.
 ITO withdraw from Pekin would be interpreted as proving not only that the allies are towards, but that they are hopelessly divided. It may be that some of the powers will withdraw; but that | does not imply that others are bound to | leave Pekin and to acquiesce m the re- | storation of government guilty of a | gross international crime"
