Washington, October H.-The following general order by General Chaffee has been made public at the War Departments:
 Headquarters China Relief Expedition,
 September l, 1900. General Order No. IS.
 T. The following letter from Hon. E. H. Conger, United States minister, express ing joy and gratitude for timely succor for the legations, emphasizes the importance of the duty imposed upon the troops sent for the relief of our besieged countrymen, and this order will be read at evening pa- rade on the day following its reception.
 Legation of the United States of Amer lea, Pekin, August 17.-From the moment of the arrival of the allied relief column we have all tried personally to express our, joy and gratitude for your timely coming. l am not satisfied, however, with this mere verbal acknowledgment The patriot 10 purpose with which you hurried more than half around the world the heroic courage displayed and the tremendous sacrifices made in your victorious march from Tien Tsin to Pekin deserve 8 more fervent expression of our sincere appre- citation and profound gratitude than can be

negotiations in Pekin which may be in- definitely prolonged and finally produce no result.
 The authorities are anxious to obtain in formation relative to the replies of Ger many and Great Britain on the Russian suggestion. No information on this point has yet reached the State Department. Should all the nations consent the author ities say great obstacle in the way of satisfactory solution of the whole Chi nese question will be removed
 Oscar s. Strauss, minister to Turkey, said in this city last night:
 Tt Is proper that the United States should lead in the matter of arbitration We have never ceased to urge the course upon the powers, and it appears to me that now Is the proper time for us to put our words into deeds. The compact be- tween Germany and Great Britain, which undoubthas the approval of our govern ment, leaves nothing to be settled except the amount of indemnity which China must pay to the several governments. In casa a serious dispute should arise regarding indemnity the matter would have to be referred to arbitration, and if it is be arr bitrated The Hague commission is the proper body for it to come before."

THE CHINESE QUESTION
 MAY YET BE ARBITRATED

New York, October N.-A step in the di- rection of the arbitration of the Chinese difficulties Washington dispatch to The Herald says. has been taken by Secretary Hay.
 He has cabled to Minister Conger the suggestion made by Russia that in case of protracted divergence of views the questions of indemnity be referred to The Hague court for decision and instructed him to consult with his colleagues as to the demands their Governments will make upon China in this respect. Should he re- port that 1t is not possible to reach an agreement, then Secretary Hay intends to advocate vigorously the adoption. of the Russian suggestion as the easiest method of obtaining satisfactory solution.
 Secretary Hay and other officials of the administration believe ih general arbitra- tion, but they think 1t is in the interest of all the powers and China that direct negotiations should first be tried.
 Those who advocate arbitration. however. argue that swifter action could be secured by the reference of the entire dispute to arbitration at this time than by beginning
