RUMORs NOT CONFIRMED.
Nothing Known mt Washington Con-
corning Riots in Picking.

WASHINGTON, June 16-Nothing has
been heard here from any official source
10 confirm the alarming reports of the de-
struction of the embassies and legations
in Picking. and in view of the fact that
the government itself is not able to open
communication with the scene of the
troubles the officials are inclined to doubt
whether private enterprise could do more.
In other words they do not believe the re-
port. Minister WI, OF the Chinese fega-
ton here, called at the State Department
this afternoon, but he declared that he was
without any advice from his own govern
ment and said his visit to Secretary Hay
had reference TO personal matter.
The unconfirmed and unofficial rumor that
Baron Won Ketteier had been killed soon
spread TO diplomatic circles ard caused
great uneasinesS the erroneous state
ment got abroad that the State Depart
ment had received confirmation of the re-
port. AS matter OF fact neither the State
Department nor the German embassy knew
anything of Ii. The rumor was none the
less disQuieting, for aside from the grave
international aspect of such an act Baron
Won Ketteler is intimately known, having
been for several years secretary OF the
embassy at Washington.
The only dispatch received to-day was
one to the British embassy announcing that
Japan would send small additional force
of soldiers and marines 10 Tien-Tsin. This
is a mixed regiment which is about to en-
and artillery with corps of engineers, sap
rers and an ambulance party. The en-
gineers and sappers are counted on as be-
ing capable of helping in the field in the
expedition forces now in China.
The following cablegram on the same
subject was received this evening at the
Japanese legation from the japanese gov
eminent at Toxic: THE situation in north
China is daily growing more serious The
imperial government has consequently. in
addition TO the fleet already at Taku. de-
cided TO dispatch a military force of about
1000 men TO Tien-Tsin TO strengthen the
hands OF the japanese minister in China
The latter is acting in full concert with
the other representatives Of the powers"
The report OF the destruction OF the en-
bassies and legations ar PekinS was fol-
| lowed by many kilograms asking the State
| Department for information Some of
| these came from Iowa, the home OF Min
| lister Conger. and some from friends and
relatives OF the other persons connected
l with the United States legation 1T Picking.
Mr.. Baldwin, sister OF Mr.. Conger. called
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1900-06-17

in person at the department to inquire into
the truth of the story The department
was obliged to make answer IN each case
that Ii had no news and that II could not
confirm the report. IL was apparent that
the officials did not believe that the United
States legation had been burned and they
were only sorry that they could not make
a denial upon authority.
1t is said at the State Department that
according to the last reports there were
at the Unied States legation besides Mr..
Conger, his wife and daughter, at least
one lady visitor, Secretary of Legation II.
c. Squires. of New York: w. Z. Balm
bridge, of Iowa; Lieut.. Il. Key, naval Sec
rotary, and f. ID. Cheshie, interpreter.
Inquiry at the War Department concern
ing the communication facilities at the
scene of the trouble developed the fact
that cable communication ends at Shang-
hal. From Shanghai telegraph line runs
up to Tien-Tsin. there branching off into
lines, one to Taku on the coast OF Pe-Chi-
Lii gulf, and the other continuing up 10 Re
king. If, as reported, the line between
Tien-Tsin and Taku has been cut, COM
munication with Picking would not be in
terrupted, but this would explain the
absence of any word within the last twen-
ty-four hours from Admiral kempn at
Taku. Minister Conger's silence, too, might
be the result of like happening to the
line from Picking to Tien-Tsin, for II is
improbable that If the Taku-Tien-Tsin line
has been severed, the Boxers would leave
the remaining means or communication
open. Any interruption south OF Tien-Tsin
would shut off the very heart OF the
trouble from the outside world. AS stated
above, Shanghai is the nearest point to
Peking that can be reached by cable. 1t
is hardly possible that the deep sea cables
themselves should be molested and Shang-
hal itself thus cut off, but the latter is so
distant from the direct scene OF conflict as
TO be of little avail as a basis of commun-
ication If the inland wires are intercepted

SITUATION Is PERILOUs.
Native Converts and Servants of For
efgners Murdered.

LONDON, June 16.--What with the re-
ports coming through Tien-Tsin that the
Boxers have massacred number of ma
tive converts and servants Of foreigners in
the east city Of Picking, besides burning the
Catholic Cathedral at Picking, the situation
in the far East appears perceptibly graver.
To add to the difficulties comes the news
this morning that telegraphic communica-
ton between Shanghai and Tien-Tsin is
interrupted. Consequently the prevailing
uncertainty as to the facts and possible
ties of the position will be accumulated.
1t is generally recognized now that the
position of the foreigners at Picking is per-
ilous, as there is but a short step from the
massacre of the servants of foreigners to
the killing of the foreigners themselves.
IF massacre is averted," says the Spec
tator 'and the palace reduced to seeming
obedience the grand difficulty will be to
decide the next step. The powers can
neither encamp permanently in Picking nor
leave until it is established that the gov
eminent is prepared to respect interna-
tional obligations and able to hold China
together If anarchy breaks out in China
the object of the powers is defeated. The
failure or success of the present movement
may involve a series or wars or Wnlcn no
man can see the end" Continuing, the
Spectator suggests that an egress from the
present impasse must be found in the APP
pointment by the representatives OF the
powers of a competent vizier, as has so
often been successfully done in other east
err crises. Otherwise the hideous calamity
of China falling to pieces may in few
months be exciting the cupidity and over
taxing the capacity of all the ruling men.
Commenting on the supposed hesitation
Of the United States to actively participate
in the movement TO suppress the Boxers,
as reported in cable dispatches from Wash
ington, the Statist says: mo European
power will misunderstood the present hes
itation of the United States and jump at
the conclusion that American feeling and
opinion may be disregarded. The United
States will undertake military operations
in China as it did against Spain If the pro-
lection of its citizens require them, or If
the powers threaten to exclude American
merchants from their rights in China ac-
quired by treaty. Unless the ministers
muddle matters Great Britain can reckon
on Japan and the United States maintain
ing, even by force, the policy of the open
door In China
A Cabinet meeting held to-day under the
presidency of Lord Salisbury was concerned
almost wholly with the situation in China.
