GREAT BRITAIN APPROVES THE
Foley OF UNITED STATES.
She Authorizes Her Minister to Pursue
the Course of Conger in the Chinese Ne
gotiations--To Examine the Credentials
of Ii Hung Chang.

-----
Washington, October G.-The British
government has followed in the foot
steps of the United States in The Chi
nese ncgouaiions. 1t has authorized
Sir Claude Macdonald, the British
mnister to Pekln to enter into rela-
lions with the Chinese officials just as
our government did in the case OF
Minister Conger. 1t has left to its
minister discretionary powers to pass
Jpn the sufiiciency Of the credentials
of Ii Hung Chang, Prince Ching and
the other Chinese ENJOYS. Although
the formal response to the last Ger
man proposition has not been re
turned by Lord Salisbury, the United
States government has been informed
that though such an arrangement had
been made, all being necessary in the
light of recent developments, yet Sir
Claude Macdonald will be instructed
to make the same inquiries relative to
the punishment of the Chinese ring
leaders that have been committed to
Mr.. ConGer.
The first practical outcome of Spec
ial Commissioner Rockhilrs lnvestiga7
ton has been an instruction to him
by the State department to cooperate
with Mr.. Conger and his brother mil
listers ut Pekin. They are charged
now with inquiries into the matter oil
punishments, which certainly will oc-
cupy some time, and 1t Is not expect
ed that much Roadway will be made in
other directions until this phase< of
the case has passed. The latest
French note is a distinct movement
toward the initiation of negotiations
for settlement, while the question
of punishment Is still pending. 1t is
probable that exchanges will take
place with the French note as the
basis, while the ministers at Pekin
are at work with their Instructions
upon the subject OF punishments, but
even though some advance is made
with the French note, it is not likely,
In the Judgment of officials here, that
all of the complex questions sinvolved
therein can be agreed upon by the
powers before Mr.. Conger and the
other ministers are ready to report
upon their branch Of the case.
Touching the French proposals, the
officials here have alreauy' iueef y. a.
tlmations that the Chinese government
is preparing to offer strenuous objec-
lions to some of them, notably to the
proposition looking to the razing OIL
the Taku forts and the interdiction Of
the importation of firearms. 1t is be-
lieved here, however, that the impe-
rial government will make an earnest
effort to meet the demand of the pow
ers respecting the punishments. The
news that Yung Lu. is not to be
forced upon the Chinese peace COM
mission is well received here as in
dicating the readiness of the Chinese
government to heed any reasonable
remonstrance from the powers.

ENGLISH KETHoDIsM AND TIE EoEK
WAR.

The recent invitation extended to
Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain TO preside at
. luncheon in Wesley's Chapel, Lon
den, awakened an outburst OF indig-
nation among Elglish Wesleyaus who
do not agree with Mr.. Chamberlsln's
politics. It wss claimed, however,
that the ou;burst was moral ana Ge.
ligious rather than political. Several
columns of the Manchester Guardian
were devoted daily 10 letters trom
Methodis:s, most Of them denouaclng
n strong, even fiery, tcrns the invita-
ton to the Colonial Secretary. AZ 8
resuh. the luncheon was abandoned,
for the ostensible reason that tho
church-deeds forbade any political
meeting. The following letters may
a.rye as samples Of the scores t"aI
were pnblished:
II sm = Methodist Of sixty years
standing, and would like to j'ln in tho
protest against the arrangement mace
with Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain to pre-
side at luncheon at Wes!ey's Chapel.
I think the authorities in London are
little aware of the strong feeling exist
ing il the. provinces on this matter
And new NathoSism il to be repre-
sented as being On the side Of the Jla:.
goas, which to thousands and tens OF
thousands is detestable."
"Allow nae also to enter my most
earnest protest against Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain plesiding over any meet'
inc to be held either at City Road OF
in any other Methodist chapel At tn:
most critical juncture Of our nations
history. Notwithstanding the J'nso'
ism of the Methodist press, very
large percentage Of leading lsymen OF
the Methodist body believe that W.
are engaged in the most unnecessar!
and therefore cruel war that ever
dsrkened the pages Of any Christian
nations history. Methodist peopise
raise yoar voices in loud protest; o'
moi allow any one to mlslead you
protest with all your might against th'
| Colonial Secretary presiding over an!
meeting in our dear old City Ros'
