Apparently" he said, there Is more
anxiety abroad than there is In Rus

NEW YORK. Nov. 21.-Government
officials. says Times dispatch from
Washington. no longer make any at
tempt to conceal their disbelief in the
sincerity Of the protestations made by
the powers that they do not contem-
plate the partition of China.
The speech Of Count Won Bulow illus
trates well the attitude Of the powers.
He said in the course Of 1t:
1T is impossible to foresee further de-
velopments. We shall not allow our
selves to be led beyond these demands
except by the interests Of civilization
and especially by the interests Of Ger
many"
These words 1re paraph.asel as FOL
lows by an administration official:
This is all we want at present We
shall not make any further demands
unless We feel like it,"
Although Count Won Bulow asserted
that the demands he reported had been
made by Unanimous agreement" it is
not believed that the United States rep
resentative has assented to them. Mr..
Conger has reported from time TO time
the various propositions under consid-
Grafton. but he has not yet indicated
that anything in the nature Of an agree
ment has been reached upon which the
powers might act and which is to serve
as basis of negotiations with the Chi
nese authorities.
The great danger hangs about the
question Of indemnity. Every day
brings to the state department further
information about the swelling Of the
expense bill Germany has now figured
her military expenses at $50. 900 900. This
does not include single claim for
damages; it is nothing but the cost Of
sending troops to China and burning
powder.
The United States has not yet reached
the point of settling figure beyond
which demands would be regarded as
excessive. 1t is actively at work try
ing to reach such figure. The United
States desires to make the indemnity
the very utmost that China can pay but
no more. The American feeling is that
China has sinned 50 grievously that
she must suffer a tremendous penalty

RUssINs ATTITUDE.

NEW YORK. Nov. sl.-Count Cassini,
Russian ambassador to the United
states. is quoted in Washington dis
patch 10 the Herald as saying in an
Interview;
"FroEl the outset Of the Chinese trou-
ole Russia has beer actuated By the
single purpose to act in concert with
the other powers to preserve the In
tegrity Of China.
In pursuance Of his policy for pre-
serving international peace. the en-
percr adopted an attitude when the
Chinese trouble began calculated to
maintain harmony and TO insure the
preservation Of the Chinese empire.
This attitude is in harmony with Rus
si9's interest.
Russia is big state. Her interna-
tional affairs require constant and ju-
dicious attention. The great inter-
prises she has under way demand unre-
mitt!ng care She wants no addition to
her territory and the only contingency
which would force her to acquire 1t
would be in event that other powers
took steps 10 partition China.
Ar examination Of Russia's policy
shows how completely it is in accord
with the United States.
Il am hopeful thar a solution satis-
factory to the powers and 10 China wi |
BE- reached. but to achieve il all must
pursue a disinterested policy and have
as their aim the objects they announce
they had in view when the trouble be-
gan"
