IGNORING PEKIN GOVERNMENT.
Our COnsuJs Will Negotiate Directly
With the VfcerOys

Washington, July 2.-Yesterday's ad-
vices 10 the state department, made up
of two cablegrams from Consul Gen
eral Goodnow, at Shanghai, brought
the foreign ministers at Pekin along
one day further in safety, showing that
they were still alive, with the probable
exception of the German minister, who,
1t seems likely, has been murdered
Some encouragement is drawn by the
officials from the fact that some days
prior to the latest advices that the
other ministers were alive on the later
date, for officials believe that the diplo-
matte corps at Pekin could not have
been preserved through the fury of the
first stages of the outbreak only to
fall victims to sober second thought
There is also at least the indication
that the Chinese government itself was
protecting them. On the other hand,
the statement that the notoriously an
ti-foreign prince, Tuan, was in COM
plete control at Pekin was regarded as
an exceedingly grave development and
as tending to fix clearly responsibility
for the happenings of the past three
weeks directly upon the Pekin govern
ment. An ameliorating condition is
the refusal Of the great viceroys, them
selves Of almost absolute power In
their provinces, to be controlled from
Pekin in their attitude toward foreign
ers.
A high official of the state depart
ment said today that there is nothing
now to do but to follow out the course
the state department has already
adopted, namely, to have the United
States consuls put themselves in COM
munication with the viceroys of the
provinces, treating the central govern
nent at Pekin as incapacitated for ad-
ninistrative work, and meanwhile do
ng all in their power to protect the
'oreigners in their respective districts
rhe signs of an amicable disposition
IN the part of these viceroys is proba-
)ly the basis for the hope that they
an be induced at least to stand neu-
raj and keep their own provinces in
rider IL it shall be necessary to direct
Iostilities energetically against the
'ekin government.

Denouncing Hoboken's Piers.

that there need have been no loss Of

Such a fire could not possibly have
occurred in New York city. It-would
be absolutely impossible, owing to the
superiority Of the docking facilities
and the fire and police departments.

London, July 3.-The allies are not
advancing for the relief of Pekin.
This announcement to the house of
commons by William st. John Brod-
rick, under secretary of state for for
eign affairs, was received with ex-
carnations of astonishment and dis
may.
Sir Ellis Ashmead Bartlett inquired
if any information had been received
from the legations at Pekin or as to
the composition and command of the
relieving force and its present posi-
ton.
Mr.. Brodrick read the dispatches re-
ceived yesterday and said the total
allied force available is >hOw about
$4,000, as troops have been rapidly ar
irving, adding:
1--WE do not yet know what arrange
ments have been made locally regard
ing the command of an expedition, but
it has not yet been thought possible
to attempt a further advance. The
consuls have been in communication
with the viceroys in the Yang Use re-
gion, and they are quite aware that
support will be given them by her ma
jesty's government in preserving or
der. 1t is obviously impossible that
the representatives of the powers at
Pekin should be consulted as no COM
muniCatiOns are passing with them"
The situation is desperate. Hasten"
These words from the message of Won
Bergen, a member of the German le-
cation at Pekin, countersigned by Sir
Robert Hart, inspector general of GUS
toms, and dated nine days ago, are the
theme of all private comment. They
are preparing for news of frightful
tragedy. Nine days ago the ammuni-
tion of the little garrison defending
the foreigners was running low, and
their food was nearly exhausted, while
around them was a horde of Kan-Su
braves having at their service Krupp
guns and repeating rifles. Pekin was
in the hands of the revolutionaries.
While nothing but sinister news
mes from northern China, southern
China is seemingly breaking away
from the empire. All the provinces
south of the Yellow river whose vice
rOys and governors maintain friendly
relations with the powers through the
consuls have been informally consti-
tuted into confederacy, with Nankin
as the capital.
According to an express cable from
Shanghai, dated July 2, the southern
Viceroys wholly disavow Prince Tuan's
government. They have practically
constituted an Independent state, ex-
tending from the Hoang-Ho to the
British and French frontiers. Little
else to illuminate the profound OBJ
scurity of the situation reaches cable
points. The Chinese wires at Chefoo
appear to be interrupted.
Last night St. Petersburg was in
formed over the Siberian wires that
the destruction of the Russian rail-
ways in Manchuria continues. and 1t
seems not improbable that Russia will
be fully occupied for a time in sup.
pressing the insurrection among its
subject Chinese and may be unable to
send more troops Immediately to Taku.
The powers look more and more to
Japan to supply the force necessary
at once to grapple with the formidable
rebellion.

Berlin, July 3.-From well authen-
ticated reports the press representa-
tives are able to state that yesterday.
after the detailed statement by Count
Won Buelow, secretary Of state for for
eign affairs, regarding the Chinese sit
uation, Emperor William made up his
mind to insist upon full satisfaction for
the death of Baron Won Ketteler, for
which purpose he resolved to send al
together armed forces approximately
as large as those of the other powers
chiefly interested in restoring order in
China. The precise size of the forces
has not been determined, but it is said
that they will altogether amount to
10000. A considerable portion of the
German fleet will be sent also This is
evidenced by orders issued last night to
prepare five large new battleships for
sailing. 1t is understood that Prince
Henry of Prussia has requested the
emperor to give him command of this
division, but it is doubtful whether his
majesty will agree to this.
The emperor and Count Won Buelow
are fully aware that constitutional diff
ficulties render difficult the dispatch
ing of so large a contingent, but both
are agreed that it must be done
