Artitade of the Power. in China.

While it is not ad mitted that q state
of war exists in China, vet hostilities
have been carried to such an extent
that development of war appears to
be almost unavoidable, and it is con-
ceded that the severing of diplomatic
relations on the part of many of the
great powers and the celestial empire
may be expected at most any time.
In the meantime the attitude of the
several great nations having armies
already on Chinese soil seems to be as
follows:
The United States government still
takes the stand that only technical
war exists with China, feeling that
under such q condition more can be
accomplished in waging real war on
the Chinese offenders. whoever they
may be. Yet the existence of war be-
tween this nation and the Chinese
may be proclaimed at any time and
the Chinese official representatives in
this country given their passports.
In due time, it is believed, judging
from its course in other war matters
in the past two years, the United
States government, as at present adj
ministered, will be foremost among
the powers favorable to partition, un-
popular and un-American as such q
purpose would be.
England is for any course that will
result in the partition of the empire,
no matter what the cost. or whether
resort is made to war or diplomacy,
so long as in the end she gets the
lions share of the concessions.
France assumes waiting attitude
as far as final policy, preferring that
other powers take the initiative.
More troops will be hurried to the
far east and fleet strengthened. Min
istry will not call special session.
The German press strongly advises
heroic measures in far east. Ministry
denies any agreement with the pow
ers. Emperor William is for a vim
dictive policy.
Austria will follow the lead of the
powers and has already ordered more
warships to Chinese waters. OPP
poses any proposition for the parti-
ton of China.
Italy believes long military cam
paign is before the powers, and is for
warding troops and warships. OPP
poses partition of China, but will de-
mand her share if ACKNOWLEDGMENT
follows war.
Russia keeps her ultimate policy in
China a secret; denies that she OPP
poses Japanese interference, and init
mates willingness to cooperate fully
with the powers up to the time order
is restored in China. Beyond that
Russia's policy is mystery.
japan is willing to accept man.
date from ali the powers to restore
order in China. Does not demand
territorial compensation. Will op-
pose partition.

what a Boxer Saw Who Witnessed
the kung Tsung Tragedy

The Shanghai Mercury says that
member of the Boxers society who
saw the murder of Rev. Mr.. Ellis of
the London mission and of Chinese
missionary at Kung Tsun gave the fol
lowing account OF the tragedy to a
friend:
"On the twelfth day Of the fourth
moon the Boxers, numbering 81, cross
ed the river Tsun and met the two mis-
sionaries in a boat. They knew the
Chinese was a Christian and at once
attacked him, wounding him with their
swords Then they dragged him out or
the boat and tied him to a tree at the
river side Then Mr.. Ellis was tied
with him, and Mr.. Chao. smother Chi
nese missionary. was found.
His toes and thumbs were bound
together, and he was carried TO tree
near where the others We're hung up.
The arms of the missionaries We're cut
off, their heads hewn off, and after the
bodies had been disemboweied they
were cast into the river. The chapel
of the mission was demolished, and the
Boxers went on their way

A GREAT many republicans admit
that Chairman Hanna will not have
the enormous campaign fund at his
disposal this year that he had four
years ago. Nearly all of those who
were then identified with the gold
democratic movement will this year
contribute to the democratic CAM
paign fund and former republicans
who are now anti-imperialists will not
give cent to help reflect Mckinley.
