to determine upon the next step and at
the end of that time 1t would be den-
nitely known whether or not the troops
We're to be withdrawn from Pekin. That
period of time has now elapsed. The
reports from the European chancellories
indicate that, officially at least, this I'M
portant subject is being treated with
the greatest deliberatiOn and at least
another week, and probably even more
time, may be consumed in framing the
last of the answers to the Russian
note.
Meanwhile the United States govern
ment has pretty well satisfied itself as
to it's attitude toward this last pfopo-
sition of each and all powers interested
in the Chinese problem. 1t may be
that this knowledge is regarded as suffi-
cient upon which to base another for
ward and perhaps in this case an indie
pendent movement by the United States
towards the ultimate withdrawal of the
troops and the settlement with China,

consultations with Mr.. Wu are believed
to have been inspired by a desire to
learn something of the personality of
Chinese notables whose names have
been submitted as proper to conduct
the Chinese side of any commission
which may be named to arrange a set
tlement of the difficulties. Mr.. Wu is
an ardent adherent of Earl Ii.
There is much speculation here as to
the personnel of the American commits
sioners in case the peace negotiations
should be entrusted to such body and
the names of men prominent in inter-
national affairs in recent years all have
been canvassed. Included in the list IS
the name of General John w. Fostre.
but it is regared as much more proba-
BILE that if he appears at all in these
negotiations it will be in his old place
as a representative of the Chinese gov
ernment. He was associated with Ii
Hung Chang during the peace negota-
tions which closed the China Japanese
war and it Is said that Earl Ii has
high sense of appreciation-of his work
for China then.
There was a dearth Of official infor-
nation from China to-day. General

meetings We're held in various parts of
the Wyoming valley tonight and the
strike situation discussed. In all the
meetings the sentiment was in favor of
abiding by the decision of the execu-

of the speakers deplored lockout, but
said they were willing to stand by the
majority.
If strike is ordered Wilkesbarre will
be the headquarters for the operators
and the strikers will have their head
quarters at Hazelton. The operators
in this section are now convinced that
nothing but miracle can prevent a
strike, and they are making prepara-
tions to hire ccal and iron police to
guard their property during the contin-
uance of the strike.
