a good many people know that the reg
lister of all shipping is Lloyd's register
and it is vaguely understood that a mer-
chant ship, no matter what flag it car
rieS, is all the better for being rated
"a u at Lloyd's. There is a further
question which most people are still more
willing to leave in the vague, and that
IS, how does Lloyd come to know so
much about two-thirds of all the mer-

their seaworthiness Is accepted every
where without question?
LloydS register of merchant ships
is an institution which grew up In the
middle of the last century in a London
coffee house, where merchants congre-
gated to hear and to give news of their
several maritime ventures. In course of
time 1t came to be accepted as safe to
1ntrust ones cargo to any ship that
was guaranteed on the register kept at
Lloyd S. But the degree of certainty IN
the knowledge, and with it the value OF
Lloyd's certificate, has increased enor-
mously since hulls began to be built Of

U. S. MARINE CORPS.
New York Offices Crowded With Ap-
plicants for Enlistment,

New York, July 10.-The United States
marine corps recruiting office, in this
city, has been crowded with applica-
tions ever since the marines took such
a prominent part in Admiral Seymour's
unsuccessful advance on Peking Most
of them, however. insist on a promise of
service IN China and go away when told
that no particular station can be prom
ised. At the army recruiting office many
men offer to enlist if they can-4be as
to be transferred to the Far East,
The trouble in China is, however, l1ay-
ing little effect on enlistments in the
navy, according to the officers in charge
of recruiting here. Applicants for naval
service do not seem so thirsty for war.
and few recruits for Chinese service are
made. Lieutenant r. L. Russell who is
IN charge of the navy recruiting office.
said:
I'VE have seen only two or three men
at this office who desire to enter if the
navy depended on their being assigned
to the Chinese station. Perhaps: it is be-
cause they realize that we could do
nothing with such requests. We are
having great rush of good men lust
at present and enlistmentts at this Of
fee alone average fifteen day. Most
of them are landsmen who enter the
service at SIG month. We are also
getting a number of machinists and Sec
onG class electricians. These men real
ize that the large number of new ships
which will be put in commission during
the next few years will make their
chances of advancement to petty officers
very likely. The increasing and improved
navy also insures them fine ship for sea
service.

Since this occurrence the anarchists as
sumed a more bold and threatening at
titude and consequently 1T was not
deemed wise to carry out the project of
sending the diplomatic corps to Tlen
Tsin under an escort. However, orders
were issued to the troops detailed for the
protection of the legations to keep
stricter watch and take greater precau-
tions against any emergency.
ITO our surprise, on the twentieth of

demanded his surrender of the forts, mo-
tifying him that failing to receive COM
pliance they would at 2 o'clock the next

the duties of his office to hold the forts,
how could he yield to the demand? On

WILL NOT END There.
Delverasnce Of Legations Will Be Be-
ginning Of Trouble.

New York, July ia special to the
Tribune fro London says:
VIM. ST. john Brodericks explanation OF
the British policy in China was definite
SO far az Japan was concerned. The
lBrftdsh government had made a strong
appeal to Japan to send an adequate
force to China to suppress the outbreaks
of mob violence and to rescue the lega-
tions. Japan in dispatching reinforce
ments had not been required to make
any pledges respecting her Interior pur-
poses and no conditions had been impos-
ed upon her. Japan had acted upon the
init iative Eof England at critical stage
of Chinese affairs. Mr.. BrOderick did
not explain whether there was any Sc
cret arramg geanei1t between the British
two empires would stand together
against Russia. He averted any refer
ence ITO European mandate for Japanese
action and clearly there Is none. Japan
at the. urgent request of England, is CO.
operating with the other powers in the
restoration of order and no limitations
are placed upon her action.
T. Close observers already perceive that
the deMverance of the le;S tions, If it can
be effected, will not mark the end of the
Chinese complications, but the Begin
ming Of one of the most troublesome
chapters in European diplomacy. Jap
an, having sent strong force into
China will be aus reluctant as Russia
to retire without receiving adequate
compen satdon in territory and Germany
will be equally persistent in her de-
411ands for satisfaction for the murder
of her minister.
