- The daily papers of yesterday
morning published dispatches indicat-
ing the capture of Yang Tsung, on
the road to Pekin. General Chatfee
informs the war department that the

gagement. Dispatches from the Jap
anese commander indicate that the
real advance on Pekin does not begin
until August Is, when the Internation-
ais expect to have $4,000 men. The
state department at Washington has
that the Chinese cease firing
upon the American minister in Pekin,
and the indications are such as to point
to an early declaration of war. 1t
hardly seems possible that the presi.
dent can carry operations much fur

An Important Decision,

Associate Justice Ira B. Jones has
written a decision for the supreme
court of the state which nullifes the
act which was intended to domesticate
foreign corporations doing business in
this state requiring corporations to
take out charters under the laws of
this state. The decision is important
and far-reaching, and simply means
that corporations like the Southern
railway, when sued for amounts ex-
ceeding $4,000, are to be sued through
the United States circuit court and
cannot be sued through the state courts.
In order to render his decision, the su-
preme court was compelled to reverse
its decision in the case of Mathis VS..
Southern railway; but states that in
doing so it is bound by the decisions of
the United States supreme court. The
meaning of the decision is that suit
for damage against foreign corpora.
ton must be for less than $4,000, if
brought in the state courts. One re-.
suit will be considerable number of
damage suits for 81, ,999.

Says Report Of Yorkville Speech Did Not
Make His Position Clear. .
Editor Of The Yorkville Enquirer:
A copy of your paper of the Sth
inst, containing report of the con-
gressional campaign meeting at York
Vile, was handed me today. find
that I am reported as stating that the
Democratic party believes that the
United States should treat the Philip
pines, Hawaii and Porto Rico as it has
promised to treat Cuba. The reporter
is only partially correct. I made the
statement as to the Philippines only,
and called attention to the plank in
the Democratic platform demanding
that this be done. In reference to
Hawaii and Porto Rico I stated
that the Democratic party demanded
in taxation, as the constitu.
ton of the United States provides. I
am also reported as saying that Sens.
tor Tillman had left the question as
to whether the Second or Fifth dis
trict should have Republican super
visor of the census to DR.. Stokes and
myself to settle. This is hardly cor
rect report of this part of my speech.
What I did say, was Senator Tillman
refused to have anything to do with
deciding the matter, for the reason
that Mr.. Cunningham and Mr.. Tatum
were his friends, and that DR.. Stokes
worked hard to have Democrat ap-
pointed in his district, end that I
worked to secure the appointment of
a Democrat in the Fifth district, and
Mr.. Cunningham, a Democrat, was sue.
cessful, and received the appointment.
Very truly, D. E. FINLEY.

AS SEEN IN WASHINGTON.
Chinese Situation Overshadowing all Other
Questions.

Chinese Situation Overshadowing all Other
Questions.
In dispatch to his paper under
date of August 8, the Washington cor
respondent of The News and Courier
describes the Chinese situation as it
appeared on that~day as follows:
General Cbafee, in dispatch to the
war department, given out this even
ing, clears up the mystery which sur
rounded the battle at Pietsang last
Sunday. He clearly states in direct
contradiction to Admiral Remey's and
Commander Taussig's message, that
although the American troops took no
part in the fighting, they were prepar-
ed for a fanking movement, but were
unable to form in the line. 1t appears
from this dispatch that the japanese
troops were to bear the brunt of the
charge, and were to be supported by
the British and American forces.
As result of the alarming dispatch
received from Minister Conger, pub
lished this morning, President McKin-
ley, through Consul Goodnow, has de-
livered an ultimatum to the Chinese
government. Consul Goodnow was
directed to notify Ii Hung Chang,
Sbeng and other Chinese officials that
the existing situation was intolerable
and will not be permitted to continue
without the most serious results. An
early reply is demanded. The future
action of the United States govern
ment will depend on the nature of the
response made by the Chinese govern
ment.
The alarming intelligence conveyed
in Conger's dispatch, which reached
the state department last evening,
created CONSERVATION throughout the
country and aroused public sentiment
to the point of urging the call for an
extra session of congress, followed by
a prompt declaration of war. Through
out the day prominent administration
officers discussed the possibility of such
a course with greater seriousness than
ever before; but inquiry at the exec
utive mansion showed that the presi-
dent had not yet been convinced that
such action is demanded. Much will
depend upon the tone of the Chinese
reply to the ultimatum of the presi-
dent delivered today.
One of the most distressing features
of the present situation in Pekin is the
apparent inability of the international
powers to insure the absolute safety
of the legations pending the arrival of
the relief column from Tien Tsin. Ap-
prehension is felt for the safety of the

We find this paragraph credited as

The YoRKyILLE ENQUIRER has never
uttered such sentiment. 1t does not
endorse such a sentiment. 1t does not
believe that Prohibition means free
liquor. 1t knows by observation that
such is not the case. If it did enter
tain such belief, it would not attempt
such a gratuitous insult to those who
think otherwise. The Guardian, which
is Governor McSweeney's paper, will
please be so kind as to correct its
obvious Misrepresentation of us.

imprisoned ministers in the present
temper of the Chinese people. There
is no louger any attempt to conceal
the fact that the imperial forces in
China are banded with the Boxers to
exlerminate the "foreign DEVILS" 1t
has also been clearly demonstrated that
the Chinese government is resisting
the advance movement of the inter-
national forces with all its power,
coupled with the implication that fur
ther hostile demonstrations on the
part of the allies. may furnish pre-
text for the massacre of the ministers
and their associates. 1t is conceded
that the latter are in deadly peril, and
their safety at Pekin cannot be assured.
At the same time Minister Conger has
stated that it means certain death to
leave there. Under these conditions
the Chinese seem to hold the key of
the situation 80 far as the safety of the
legations are concerned, and the Ut
most caution must be observed to pre-
vent disaster to the ministers.
At the state and war departments
the statement is officially made that
there is no intention of calling halt
in the movement of the Internationals
against Pekin, and there is no likeli-
hood of such step being taken unless
it should prove the only means of saw
lug the ministers. Conservative Off
cials derive some hope from the fact
that Minister Conger's dispatch came
through in cipher, and may be regard.
ed as an indication that the Chinese
government is preparing way for
open communications between the min
listers and their respective governments.
If the promises contained in the edict
are made good and freer communica-
tion is at once established, serious con-
sequences may be averted. Although
former limitations have been given
that such communication would be es-
tablished, this is the first time it has ap-
peared in the form of an imperial edict.
As result of this latest communica-
ton from the C1pese government and
the message sent to Consul Goodnow,
the United States government is now
in an attitude of waiting, hoping for
the best; but apprebensive of the
gravest possibilities.
1t is reported here this evening that
the president will return to Washing
ton and personally conduct the Chinese
movements in the absence of Secretary
Hay, who is still at his New Hampshire
residence. .'.
