IN WAITING ATTITUDE.
Absence of News From China HHndi
 caps the Government.


 Washington, Aug. 29.-The govern ment Is in a waiting attitude regarding the Chinese situation. The lack of late advices from Picking and the failure of the powers to show their hands as to their future policy makes 1t necessary for this government to await develop ments. The administration considers 1t of the greatest importance that in the negotiations for a settlement of the Chi nese difficulty all the powers should act in unison and harmony, and Its efforts are being directed to that end.
 The powers, however, seem slow to declare themselves. Several replies have been received to the instructions sent to our ambassadors and ministers last week asking them to sound the governments to which they are accredited on two propo- sitions-first, the willingness of these governments to accept the suffciency of Ii Hung Chang's credentials to treat with the powers for settlement, and, second, to ascertain if possible what the future policy of each power Is to be.
 Three messages from General Chaffee have been received, and while they cast no direct light on the military situation they were inferentially important. The generals statement that he needs no siege battery, taken in connection with the diversion of the First cavalry, which was bound for Taku, to Manila, seems to make clear that there Is no intention to enter into prolonged campaign in China such as would involve the use of heavy artillery or of re-enforcements in the shape of men and horses. At the same time 1t cannot be said that the govern ment has shown any signs of a purpose to abandon any just claim 1t may have secured upon China through the brilliant operations of the little American force in the Flowery Kingdom.
 But it begins to appear that the battle of today is one of diplomacy rather than one of arms, and notwithstanding the various rumors that have filtered out from Chinese sources of heavy engage ments between the international forces and the Boxers the officials here are satisfied that no formidably organized resistance will be offered by the Chinese If the demands of the powers are limit ed to the principles laid down by the United States in It's several notes.
 A dispatch from Ten-tsin, Aug. 24, via Taku, Aug. 2T, says:
 "Officers who have arrived here from Picking report flat General Chaffee, com manding the American forces in China, Is making all the necessary preparations to maintain 5000 men through the win ter. Fifteen of the American wounded, including the marines wounded during the siege of the legations, have arrived here by boat from Picking. Captain Myers of the United States marine corps is suffering from typhoid fever and can- not be moved. A large batch of refu- gees Is due here today. The American signal service corps, cooperating with that of the British. has completed the telegraph line from Taku to Peking."

LORD ROBERTS IS CHIEF.
Succeeds woIseIcy In Command of
 the British Army.

London, Aug. 20.-The Daily Mall this morning says 1t has the highest au. thority for the assertion that Lord Rob erts has already succeeded Lord Wolse- ley as commander in chief of the British army.
 The war office has received the follow ing dispatch from Lord Roberts, nt Bel fast, under Mondays date;
 "The Boers have been beaten back by Bruce Hamilton at Winburg. General Olivier has been captured" The commander In chief adds that three of Olivier's sons were also captured In the attack which the Boers made from three sides on Winburg and that General Olivier was the moving spirit among the Boers in the southeast portion of the Orange Colony during the war" A dispatch from Lourenco Marques
 says:
 -"Heavy fighting is reported to have occurred at Machadodorp. The Boers are said to have been defeated with great loss, leaving their guns and ann munition in the hands of the British" Lord Roberts reports under date of Belfast, Aug. p, as follows; "Our movements are slow on account of the extent and nature of the country. Today we made satisfactory advance and met with decided success. The work
 fell entirely to Buffers troops and re- suited in the capture of Bergendal, a very strong position two miles northwest of Dalmanutha. l met Butler at Der
 gendal shortly after 1t was reached by our troops. I am glad to find the occu-
 patton cost less than was feared on ae-
 count of the approach being across an open glacis for 2.000 or 5000 yards and | the determined stand of the enemy. The Enniskilcns and Second Rifle brigade formed the attacking party. The latter
 suffered most. I hope the casualties dc not exceed 50 or 60. One officer was killed and two were wounded. A good many Boers were killed, and a pompom | (auick firing gum was captured.

THE HUNT FOR BOXERS.
Allies Fail to Find Any of
 Them Around Picking.
THE LEGATIONS IN DIs0LATI0E.

Attempt Wa. Made to Blow Up the
 American Building In the Chinese
 Capit.I-Peace Negotiation. Said to
 Have Been Begun.
 London, Aug. 29.-A dispatch from Pe- king, dated Aug. 21, via Taku, Aug. 21, says:
 '"Three Russian, two Japanese. one British and one American battalion searched the Imperial park, south of the city and about five miles out, for Boxers. No armed force was found, but only a single Chinese scout, who was killed.
 '"The Japanese are In possession of the imperial summer palace. The winter pal ace here is still closely guarded. The Russians wish to destroy 1t, but the Jap anese desire to save 1t. A southward movement began today and will con tinue, but several detachments will re- main to protect converts"
 A Reuter- dispatch, dated Picking, Aug. 15, and sent by post to Shanghai, de- scribes scenes of appalling desolation and wanton destruction in Legation street. All the houses of foreigners were riddled with shells, burned or blown up. An attempt was made to mine the Amer ican legation. A shaft was sunk from the top of the wall 15 feet deep and was then continued as tunnel, with a sharp slope, in the direction of the legation. Apparently the Chinese did not have time to finish 1t.
 The Chinese legation in St. Petersburg has received news that peace negotiations have already begun.
 The Picking correspondent of The Dali ly News, in a dispatch dated Aug. IT, asserts that there are thousands of in- stances going to show that the Boxers were approved by the imperial officials in their indescribable ferocity.
 The Hongkong correspondent of The Times, wiring yesterday, says:
 "There are reports of continued az gression by Black Flags on North river and of the deliberate destruction of mis- sion property"

Young Senator From Indiana ExtoIs His
Resolution.
Washington. Jan. o-In speech in
the senate today in support Of his resolu
ton in favor of declaration by this gov.
ernment of its pur pose to retain the Phil
ippines. Senator Beveridge declared that
we could recede should we make mis-
take in retaining them as other nations
stood ready to buy them, but if we took
an opposite course, our mistake would be
irretrievable. He declared that the Phil.
ippines have enough timber to supply the
world with furniture for one hundred
years and that senators now living would
see the day when the business of the
port of Manila would exceed that of Liv
erpool at the present time. BY adopting
his resolution peace would be quickly re-
stored. Failure so to do would fix the
awful respo2 sibility for the mistake upon
