APPOINTMENT OF TUAN
MAY CAUSE DELAY.
Government In Moving slowly in
Forwarding Instructions to
Minister Conncr

WASHINGTON, Sept. 28.--one belated
dispatch from Gen. Chaffee. relative 10
conditions in Picking on the 2ist instant,
was made public today. 1t is apparent
that our government is again In watt
ing attitude, after having made the i'm
portant movement toward a reduction of
the American troops in China, announced
yesterday. Gen. Chaffee had not received
the departments instructions when he
sent his message published today, but
has it now. His OFFER TO escort Ii Hung
Chang was In conformity with the ex-
pressed purpose OF the state department
to facilitate in every proper manner the
journey of the Chinese viceroy to Peking
Still. II Is now regarded as just as well
that the offer was declined and the re-
sponsibility for LIS safety left with the
Russians.
The instruction to Minister Conger to
establish relations with Ii and Prince
Ching is still held up here 1t Is begin
ming to appear that the purpose of the
delay is to ascertain moro clearly the pur-
poses Of the powers. in whose interests
rs well as our own Mr. Conger was TO
endeavor to bring about negotiations for
settlement. II II shall appear that
there is disposition on the part OF any
considerable proportion OF them to reject
In advance the weil-meant efforts OF tho
United States government TO bring about
n conference and negotiations In which
they could participate on equal terms
with our own government with the pur.
pose OF terminating the Chinese difficult
ties. then MIR. Congers Instructions may
require recasting. 1t might be regarded
as useless for him to arrange for a meet
ing of the powers with China which the
former do not care TO attend, owing en-
tirely to different purposes from those AMI
mating the United States. and there n no
disposition 10 subject our minister 10
humiliation by the fiat failure which
might he anticipated.
IL also is possible that the news rela-
tive TO the advancement Of Prince Tuan
to a position where he might influence
tho negotiations. Is regarded as worthy
of attention. and that our government
may delay proceedings as long as he
stands In the way.

Attorney General Defended.

THE attorney general is seeking to en-
force statute in Nebraska. The law Is
q good law and ought to be enforced, and
the people of Nebraska City ought to
hold mass meeting and commend him
rather than condemn him. The fusion
forces believe In enforcing state laws and
national laws against trusts. The Kansas
City platform demands the humiliation OF
all private monopoiies.
III the United States attorney general
OF the Republican party had done his
duty he would have been enforcing this
law, instead Of Mr. Smythe being down
here tonight doing what the Republican
national attorney general should do. This
Republican administration has brought
Just three suits during the past three
years, and yet more trusts have organized

Mr.. Bryan was followed by Attorney
General Smythe, who received respectful
attention. He was followed by James
Hamilton Lewis. former congressman
from the state of Washington, who made
a general political speech.
Mr.. Bryan returned to Lincoln tonight.
He will start at o'clock in the morning
on a general tour OF the country, not TO

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2s.--The strike In
the coal regions is having little effect one
way or the other on the political si,ua-

today, that while 1t may be claimed.

the laboring man does not get his full pro-
portion OF the advancement In the value

men realize that their best opportunity

Mr.. Loudensiager says that the situa-
tion in Pennsylvania is improving and
that within the past few days there has
been a general awakening. activity taking
