In the interest Of early restoration of
peace and order and the facilitation Of
negotiations with the Chinese govern
ment, Russia has proposed 80 the pow
ers of the world that they withdraw
their troops from Peking. x :ssEgssisz-'~
An early Withdrawal from Peking by
the United States, Great Britain, Japan,
France and Russia may be anticipated,
and it is not believed to be probable
that Germany and Italy would take
the responsibility of remaining alone.
It is rumored at Shanghai that the
japanese gained great victory over
the Boxers and Chinese troops betWeen
Peitsang and Ho Wun ST Thursday,
Aug. %. The story says that 1,500
Chinese were killed, including Prince
Tuan, and all the Chinese were driven
back into Obi Ii.
The German government is consider
ably embarrassed by the joint PROPOSE
tion Of Russia and the United States
to withdraw from Peking and to recog-
nize Ii Hung Chang as an intermedi-
ary. It was wholly unexpected at Ber-
lin that Russia would join the United
States in such step. ..gsszsasssse
The Chinese Negotiations remain un.
changed. It is stated that no conclu-
sion has been reached as to the last
phase, namely, the Russian proposition
of withdrawal AS to the proposition
to recognize Ii Hung Chang as an en-
voy, the negotiations remain at stand
still, no conclusion having been reached.
