prevailed everywhere and bringing to

ond an impromptu conference was held
in the diplomatic chamber. The con-
sultatjon brought about no pronounced
change Of policy for it was felt that
already every energy had been bent to-
ward meeting the situation and there
was absolutely nothing more that could
be done. After all the cabinet officials
felt, and so stated, that the message
was an evidence Of friendliness and
good faith of the pro-foreign element Of
the Chinese and that wisdom dictated q
course which would continue to utilize
this friendship. =. ~ = 7

combined with mahogany either in
landings, stringing, shells, vases, etc.,

The legs Of the tables, chairs and
sideboards arc often straight, some
times turned and futed, but the most
graceful form met with in all the best
