Washington. July A.-The president
has listened to the appeal Of the Chi
nese government as transmitted thru
Minister wu, and has signified his will
ingness to mediate between the imper-
ial government and the powers, but on
" upon conditions which first must be
met by the Chinese government. The
exact nature of the terms proposed by
the state department were made knowr

washington, July 94.-The following
correspondence between the presden
and the emperor of China was made
public by the state department today:
.The Emperor Of China to His
Excellency, the President OF the
United States Sends Greeting: China
has long maintained friendly rela-
tions with the United States, and is
deeply conscious of the object Of the
United States in international COM
merce. Neither country entertains
the least suspicion or distrust to-
wards the other. Recent outbreaks
OF mutual antipathy between our
people and the Christian missions
have caused foreign powers to view
with suspicion the position Of the
imperial government as being fa-
vorable to the people and prejudi-s
cial TO the missions, with the result
that Taku forts have been attacked
and captured Consequently, there
has been clashing OF forces with
calamitous consequences. The stu.
alton has become more serious and
critical. We have just received a
telegraphic memorial from our en-
voy, Wu Ting Fang, and it is highly
gratifying to US to learn that the
United States government, having
In view the friendly relations be-
tween the two countries. has taken
deep interest In the present sltua-.
tion. Now, China, driven by the ir-i
reslstible course OF events, has un-
fortunately incurred we'll nigh uni-
versal indignation. For ssttling the
present difficulty China places spe-
ctal reliance in the United States.
wa ~
cellency IN all sincerity and candid
ness. with the hope that your excel
lency Will devise measures and take
the initiative in bringing about q
concert Of the powers for the restor-
alton of order and peace. The favor
of a kind reply is earnestly request
ed ana awaited with the greatest
anxiety.

diplomats who still survive, have
not only not received any favor nor
encouragement from your majesty,

New York Likely.

New York. Jan. 20.-A special
to the Herald from Washington
says:
When Mr.. Bryan reaches Wash
ington today the time and
place of holding the democratic
national convention will probably
be determined.
While the determination of
the questions is in the hands of
the committee and will not, there
fore, be formally settled until the
meeting of that body in February,
there is disposition on the part
Of the party managers to take
watever action may accord with
the wishes apd the judgment of
the man, who it is believed, ia
certain to be the parry's nominee
for the presidency.
While active work is being done
by representatives of Kansas City
and Milwaukee, most of the south
ern democrats are inclined to the
belief that it would be the best
politics to hold the convention in
New York City.
The opinion among democrat
leaders in congress is that unless
Mr.. Bryan is strongly opposed to
New York the chances of the EN-
pire City obtaining the convention
are excellent,
