force a passage from Tien Tsin to
Pekin. Altogether about 900 British have
been landed from the fleet. a greater
number than have landed from the
combined vessels OF the other Powers.
This evidence of Great Britain's inten-
tion to assert her position strongly
gives great satisfaction here.
GERMANY's POSITION.
Berlin, June S.-The officer command
ing the German squadron at Che Foo
has been directed to send a detachment
of sailors and marines to Tien Tsin,
and after comforting with the German
minister at Pekin to arrange with the
commanders OF the other sQuadrons
regarding futher measures to be taken
for the protection of Europeans.
Ii is understood that Germany has
officially declared her readiness to act
in concord with the other Powers, but
having no interests outside of Shang-
Tung province. she is not disposed to
take the leading part in intervention
in China. The German newspapers
claim to have discovered that the al
legged secret agreement arrived at be-
tween Russia and Japan to act together
against Great Britain in the far East
is purely fictitious. The National Zei-
tung AYERS that Great Britain stands
hand in glove with Japan.

London, June SIN spite OF the fact
that the Associated Press is officially
informed that Great Britain has
neither sounded other Powers with the
view OF securing cooperation in a new

sounded as TO such action by any
Power, there are many rumors that
such steps are under consideration. A
