is a newspaper for bright and intelligent peo-
pie 1t is made up to attract people who think.
Is not neutral or colorless, constantly trim
ming in an endeavor to please both sides, but
1T is independent in the best sense of the word.
1t has pronounced opinions and is fearless in
expressing them, but it is always fair to its
opponents.
Matters of national or vital public interest
get more space in THE TRIBUNE than in any
ether paper in the West.
For these reasons it is the newspaper you
should read during the forthcoming political
campaign.
THE TRTBUNE'S financial columns never
mslead the public.
It's facilities for gathering news, both local
and 1oreiga, are far superior SO these of any
ether newspaper in the Nest.
It presents the, news In rs fai1' q way. IS D0s-

MAY Be IN 4 TRAP
RUSSIANS MAY HAVE ALREADY
BEGUN TO MARCH TO PEKIN
FROM EAST.

Washington, August 4.-Taken in con-
nection with what has preceded them to-
days cablegrams from China place the
Chinese government In the unique posi-
tion of denying responsibility for what
THE troops have done at Pekin, while as
Stunning responsibility for what they are
now doing in the neighborhod Of Tien
Tsin. The point sought to be made
diplomatically is regarded as of the ut
most Importance in the Chinese settle-
ment. The Tsung Ii Yamen's polite in
timation that it is inexpedient to allow
communication between our government
and it's minister because fighting is going
on near Tien Tsin leaves little doubt as
to who Is responsible for the resistance
'benig offered to the progress of the in
ternational forces.
The emperor himself, by edict, already
has indicated that while reparation
might be afforded the powers for injuries
sustained by their citizens after the at
tack on the Taku forts. the Chinese gov
ernment will not assume responsibility
for what will happen as a result of mill
tary operations following that event. OF
course this notice from the Tsung Ii
Yamen may be construed as an answer to
Secretary Hays demand upon Lii Hung
Chang that free communication be open
ed with the ministers at Pekin and their
own governments, and in consequence,
the negotiations which were about to be
instituted had the request been complied
with. may be regarded as indefinitely
postponed. Meanwhile the Chinese min
listers in Europe and Mr.. WI In the

combined effort to make plain to the i'm

Pleasant Fiction Of Good Feeling in
Pekin.

Washington, August 4.-The state de
partment to-day issued the following
Minister Wu this morning handed to the
acting secretary of state the following
telegram from the Taotad of Shanghai
dated August End, and received by Mr..
Wu on the evening of the third. 1t con-
firms the message Of Yuan Shih kai,
governor of Shantung, to Mr.. Fowler,
consul at Che Foo, purporting to COM
from the Tsung Ii Yamen, but it is to be
noted that 1T contains passage omitted
from Governor Yuan's message, namely
the announcement that as fighting is go
ing on in Tien Tsin 1t is inexpedient to
send cipher kilograms to the foreign min
listers in Pekn. In this particular the
present telegram agrees With Consul
General Goodnow's report received yes
terday that Earl Ii Hung Chang had told
the French consul at shanghai on TN. une
third that mo messages would be deliv-
ereh to the ministers because the tor-
eigners were advancing on Pekdn. The

Alarming accounts of the slaughter of

can be stated with precision. One is the
improved tone of the stock market yes
terday. 1t was an important day In the
money market. ConsOls advanced and
there was increased -firmness in all the
high class securities. This was a sure
indication of better feeling in the street
respecting foreign complications. The
same improvement was shown In the talk
of members of parliament. Mr.. Broder-
ick's partial explanation of British policy
had produced salutary effect. The ul-
terror consequences of the occupation OF
Pekin were not disclosed, but the official
declaration that the British government
