and Us rs follows;
"rhe government of the United

potentiary to conduct negotiations
With the powers, and will, on It's part,
enter upon such negotiations with a
desire to continue the friendly rela-
tions so long existing between the two
countries.
at Is evident that there can be no
general negotiation between China and
the powers so long as the ministers
of the powers and persons under their
protection remain In their present po
sition Of restraint and danger, and
Thlt the powers cannot cease their ef.
forts for the delivery Of those repre-
sentatfyes to which they are con-
strained by the highest consideration
of national honor, except under an ar.
rangement adequate to accomplish q
peaceful dellyerance.
! "Wc are ready to enter into an
agreement between the powers and
the Chinese government for cessa.

Shall be permitted to enter Pelilng un.
