European Charge That Americans Attitude
In China Encouraged The Elevation Of
Prince Tuan, Is Plainly False.
ANNEXATION OF MANCHuR|A
REPORTS THAT RUSSIA HAS ANNEXED THAT COUNTRY ARE
ALARMING AMERICAN NAVY INCREASED T0
PROTECT THE OPEN DOOR POLICY

Washington, Sept. 27-The state de-
partment has been advised by Sheng, the
taotai Of Shanghai of the appointment
of Prince Tuan, the former heir apparent
of China, as grand secretary to the en-
peror. He says nothing OF the reported
resignation of Tuan as president or a
member of the privy council, but it is
believed here that it is entirely accord
ing to Chinese forms for a prince of
Nuan's ranks to fill both posts simul-
taneously.
The tone Of the foreign press comment
respecting Tuan's appointment has gone
far to convince the officials here that the
course Of te United States in this matter
is being criticised upon and entire mis-
apprehension of the facts. Thus, for in
stance, it has been asserted with great
energy in some of the continental papers,
that the course of the United States in
rejecting the German proposition rela-
tive to the surrender of the Chinese Off
cials directly inspired the empress dow
ager to the appointment of Tuan to be
grand secretary in defiance of the pow
ers. AS a matter of fact, the records of
the state department show that Tuan's
appoin tment was publicly announced
September %. having occurred several
lays previously. On the other hand the
ntate department did not make public it's
answer to the German note until Sep
tember %, and it could not have been
8eceived in China and particularly at the
Amperial court in the interior for at least
one or two days thereafter. In the opin-
ion Of the officials this is convincing that
the action of the United States in this
particular case did not influence the ap-
pointment of Tuan. The state department
has not yet been acquainted with the
character of the reply to he made by
Great Britain to the German note, but
confidence is felt that it will meet this
governments reply except to the leading
feature of that proposition, namely the
demand for the surrender of the perpe-
TRAITORS of the Pekin outrages as pre-
liminary to the Negotiations. In view of
the answers already received from other
powers in the same line the officials are
at loss to account for the statement
in some of the European papers that the
United States stands isolated" in re-
spect to this German note.

WILL BE ANTI-GERMAN.
Salisbury's Reply Not Likely to Sup
port the War Lord.

London, Sept. 27.-The statement that
Lord Salisbury has verbally answered the
German ambassador Count Won HAITI
feldt- -Widenburg in the same terms as
the United States government used in re-
plying ito the German note regarding
China has called forth many denials
throughout Europe In the first place, 1t
may be reiterated that Tuesday last the
British premier told hhe German ambas-
sador here that Germany's ideas OF the
surrender of the authors of the outrages
as a precedent to peace negotiations was
not feasible and in doing so Lord Sails
bury employed terms similar to those
used in the note from Washington.
Though this was intended as a refusal OF
what is regarded in Downing street as
the really important feature of the Ger
man note was not accepted as such by
The German ambassador on the ground
that Lord Salisbury did not formally
answer the note. and left the latter part
Of the German proposal, Il. e)1 that min
sters ait Pelkin should designate the Of
tenders, unanswered pending an hourly
expected message from Sir Claude Mac
Donald, the British minister at Pekin.
The British foreign officer has issued
what may be taken in England to be
denial of the statement made to the AS
Eociated Press saying THAT the British an
Bwer has mot yet been sent. This was
especially set forth in the dispatch an
nouncing Lord Salisbury's reply to the
German ambassador and it was added
that the answer might not be sent for
several days.
There is no reason Ito believe that the
awaited message from Pekin will have
any bearing on Lord Salisbury's deter
mination to agree with the United States
In refusing to consent to the only propo-
sition Of any weight contained in the
German note though the formal pro-
nouncement of such disagreement may be
staved off at THE last moment by Ger
many receding from the position she has
taken up and submitting ITO a COM
promise If such is the case (and the
German ambassador in London has al
reaaylhinted to the Associated Press that
1T might come about) it is only natural
that Berlin and the other capitals in ac-
cord with Germany will use every effort
to conceal the fact that Germany was
co41sced into compromise arrangement
by the action of Great Britain and the
United States.
Count Won Hatzenfeldt-W t-Wildenberg was
not the recipient of Lord Salisbury s
views on Tuesday for during the usual
foreign office reception several foreign
representatives sounded the premier on
Great Britain's attitude toward the Ger
man proposal and they were all satisfied
Lord Salisbury's decision was against
Germany.

JUDGE GOING BLIND.

Chicago, Sept. 27.-Judge James G.
Jenkinsof the United States circuit court

Josephs hospital in Milwaukee, after an
operation performed on his eyes for cat
aracts. 1t will not be known for several
days how successful the operation has

The work of the term just closed,
though somewhat broken up by the hol-
day vacation, and irregular attendance
consequent upon repeated smallpox
scares, vet was as successful as we could
hope, The general attendance among
the pupils has greatly improved, a
healtl y sign the punctualtty is all that
could be desired, rooms that at the begin
ming of the year had many cases of tar
diness, were able to report none, There
have been few eases requiring discipline
during the term, in fact the spirit of the
work and the spirit of obedience among
the pupils were admirable and promise
well for the present term as well as for
future good citizenship.
We have been fortunate III having a
willing, capable corps of teachers and
with their assistance have maintained du-
ring the term our regular teachers meet
ing each Monday afternoon, where were
discussed room difficulties as well as
plans for the progress and Improvement
of the work and each teacher was placed
i'll touch with the work as a whole. Be
sides these meetings, in connection with
the faculty of the Normal, we have main.
tanned the Teachers Round Table for
| professional advancement and more ac-
curate and a broader view Of our duties
We have been greatly encouraged by
the kind words and cooperation of the
patrons. We trust that this cooperation
between the school and the home may
continue and grow as the present tern
progresses. Sincerely,
K n. WRIGHT, Supt, Schools.
