GERMANY NAY YIELD.


BERLIN, Aug. sL.-The German
Government is considerably embar
rassed by the joint proposition OF th'
United states and Russia TO WITHDRAW
from Pekin, and to recognize Ii Hunl
Chang Is an intermediary.
II was wholly unexpected here tha
Russia would join the United State
in such q step. Count Won Buslow
the Foreign Minister, considers tn,
new situation thus created 80 impor'
tant as to compel him to abandon th'
vacation trip be was about to take.
This evening the semi-oficiaI pres
expresses the views Of the Govern.
ment In cautious terms.
A foreign official made the follow
ing statement on the subject:
"Germany has not yet answered
Russia's request to withdrew from
PekIn. The other Powers do not re-
gard the military situation there ~
precarious. As far as Ii Hung Chang
is concerned, Germany lie ready to
acknowledge him as China's represen'
tstive in peace negotiations, IL hi
shows himself properly accredited;
bat as to this feature of the cast
nothing lie as yet known here"
RETIREMENT OF THE ALLIED FORCES
WASHINGTON, Aug. s1.-"MutuRl
agreement is the keynote of the Ger
man policy. If the Powers determine
to withdraw from Pekin, no matter
what her own views are, Germany
will do likewise"
This statement wa made to-day by
an official who enjoys the confidence
Of the German Government. he
frankly confessed that in view of the
present condition of affairs In Pekin,
be personally believed it would be q
mistake to adopt the Russian pro-
posal.
'fThe retirement of the allies" be
continued, twill mean that thousand
of native Christians, the survivors OF
those who were at the mercy OF the
Boxers before foreign occupation OF
Pekin occurred, win be left to the
viii of the Imperial Government upon
It's return. 1t would seem imprudent
to evaouate the city just after its
capture and before a guarantee OF
peace and order in the city has been
obtained. The Chinese might misin-
terpret withdrawal for weakness and
be encouraged 70 further disorders.
Germany's position lie identical with
article III OF the note Of Secretary
Hay, dated July 3, and when the re-
suits therein set forth are accom-
pIished, 1t will withdraw, for It ls op.
posed to the partition of China"
It may be noted, in connection with
our withdrawal statement. that where
as Russia proposed to withdraw from
China our offer is to withdraw only
from Pekin. A significant fact In this
connection IL that General Chaffee,
who is well advised Of the situation,
having several days ago been directed
to prepare for just such an emergency
% that precipitated by the Russian
action, continues his preparations for
wintering the American troops In
China.
Indeed, unless the men are anoat
and out OF the Pei-Ho within the next
ak weeks, they are likely to remain
in China p~erforce, being icebound
AS bearing further on the prospects
of the future, II may be noted that
the War Department officials state
that the government has not consid-
cred the question of the evacuation Of
China.

WHY HE DIGS.

No weight OF ages bows him down,
That barefoot boy with fingers brown.
There's nothing empty in his face.
No burdens of the human race
Are on his back nor Is he dead.
To JOY or sorrow hope or dread,
For he can grievc, and he can hope,
Can shrink with all his soul from soap.
No brother to the OK is he,
He's second cousin to the bee,
He loosens and let's down his Jaw
And brings it up-his gum.to "chaw."
There's naught but sweat upon his brow.
'Tis slanted somewhat forward now,
His eyes are bright with eager light
He's working with an appetite.
All, no! That boy Is not afraid
To WELD with all his strength his spade
Nor has he any spite at fate
He's digging angleworms for bait.
