BELIEF THAT ALLIES HAVE HALTED
TO AGREE ON TERMS.

Washington, Aug. 15-The statement was
made tonight on reliable authority that the
Peking Government would designate some high
official to meet the commanders OF the allleo
armies at Tung-Chow and agree with them on
some measures for the safe conduct Of the mem
bers Of the foreign legations in the Capital IN
formation TO this effect was received here to-day
It is not unlikely that the meeting already
has taken place if General Chaffee has pusned
on to Tung- Chow. The suggestion was made
tonight that this proposal OF the Peking Gov
ernment may be an important feature or the
Conger dispatch which the officials OF the state
Department declined 10 give out for publication
as well as Of dispatches that have been received
in European countries. and which the Govern
ments are keeping secret. General Chaffee has
been informed of the contents Of the latest
Conger message. so that he is in possession Of
all the facts.
II is not known definitely who the Chinese
official that is 10 meet the ENJOYS Will be- but
the name of Prince Ching has been suggested.
He is a well known pro-foreigner. and has been
largely instrumental in defending the legations
in their days OF peril in Peking, and has COM
manded a large part Of the Imperial army.

Col. G. j. Holt Of Chicago lectured
Wednesday evening at the NJ. T.. church,
and Notwithstanding the fact that the
place of meeting was not settled until
after three o'clock, there was a good
sized audience, the lecture deserving a
crowded house.
He illustrated the condition OF affairs
in Salem by a series OF striking pictures
representing a farm yard where the rats
were destroying the young chickens.
The ROSTERS stood in with the rats and
licensed them, at the same time filling
