WI Calls on the President.

Ting Fang, the Chinese minister, paid
a personal visit to the white house to
present to President Mckinley a COM
munication received by telegraph
from the emperor of China and adj
dressed to the president OF the United
States. Minister WI had previously
called at the state department, where
he told Secretary Hay of the imperial
communication. The arrival of WI at
the white house attracted considerable
attention there, as much from the fact
that it is unusual for a member Of the
diplomatic corps under the rank of
ambassador to personally cali on the
president as that the Chinese pleni-
potentiary attired in oriental dress
was in the horseless carriage of the
foreign devils" WI was with the
president about twenty minutes. Ar
ter his departure the president sent
for Secretary Hay and discussed with
him the Chinese emperors commune
cation, and the nature Of the answer
which should be returned. The let
ter from Kwang-Su contains merely
an expression of his appreciation of
the attitude displayed by the president
in the Chinese troubles. It thanks the
president for his conciliatory policy,
and shows that the emperor is con-
WINGED that this government has no
selfish motives in it's dealings with
China and the powers.
