nouncement is made today at the state
department confirming the exclusive
news published in these dispatches yes
terday that the powers have decided
to retain their forces in Picking. All
of the powers have made response to
Russia's proposition for evacuation of
the Chinese capital and the replies have
been communicated to the state de-
partmsnt here. They are unanimous
in declaring their belief that it would
be dangerous for the international
troops TO leave Picking now. Under
the circumstances it is supposed Rus
STA will have to modify her proposal,
what compromise can be agreed upon.
While the contents of the various
replies are necessarily at present kept
as confidential, it is learned from high
authority that the principal reasons
that have %actuated the powers in re-
jecting Russia's proposal are:
"First-That an evacuation of Pc
king at this stage would be accepted
by the Chinese people and would be so
reported to them by their officials as
an act of cowardice on the part OF the
powers. They would believe that the
foreigners had been so impressed with
what they had seen at Picking that
they were afraid to remain there.
"Second-That it would be disas-
trOus to the native Christians in Pc
king, and while there is no doubt that
many of them have been killed, it is
true that many yet live. To leave
these people without protection, with
out any guarantees having been secur-
ed for their safety, would inevitably
result in their massacre.
"Third-That since Russia's propo-
sal to e%vacuate Picking became known
the southern provinces of China have
shown signs of unrest, and there have
been indications of a spread of the an
ti-foreign sentiment there. The rumb-
lings Of coming trouble in this section
Of the empire, which were mild at first,
have been recently increasing in vol
ume and prospects of rioting and anti
foreign demonstrations have been no.
ticeable growing since the cars plan
was announced"
For these and other reasons the
powers decided that it would be I'M
wise, if not positively dangerous, for
their troops to leave the Chinese CAPT
tai at this time. 1t is understood that
some of the replies suggested as a
basis of compromise that the gumber
Of troops to be left in Picking be limit
ed to a garrison only large enough to
properly guard against disturbances;
that the imperial palace be vacated by
foreigners, and that the emperor and
empress he invited back to Picking with
their court under certain guarantees
Of safety in order that negotiations
may be pened with them for the &C
complishment of the remaining pur-
poses outlined by the powers.

SNAP-JUDGMENT.
A Striking Illustration-"Judg Not
That Ye BE Not
Judged"

A merchant In New Orleans tells TO
newspaper writer Of that city story
which impressively illustrates the dam
gers of coming to conclusion hastily
and on insufficient evidence. He says
that one day he had by accident
smeared one of his hands with paint,
and stepped into a hotel where he was
well known 10 wash II Off. He took
from his finger a valuable solitaire dia-
mond ring and hung 1t on the faucet
viii he was washing his hands. Then
he dried his hands on towel and went
away, forgetting the ring.
Half an hour later, at a friends Office,
he missed the ring, and rushed back to
the hotel to look for 1t. 1t was gone.
He called the porter, who told him that
he had seen one of the bell boys take
something from the faucet few min
utes before and hastily disappear
through the back door Of the house.
He told the name of the boy, and the
gentleman started off to raise an
alarm.
On his way through the Office he
shouted out the boys name, and de-
clared that he had stolen the ring and
escaped. lie warned the hotel people
to have the boy arrested on sight. Then
he went out and gave the same word
to a couple of policemen who were near.
Within ten minutes he had made a
tour. Of the neighborhood, telling every
one that the boy, whom he named, had
stolen his diamond ring, and asking
them to do what they could to find and
apprehend him. Then he went TO his
store. hot and excited, and there, near
his desk, stood the bell boy with the
ring In his hand, waiting to give II to
him. He had found 1t on the faucet,
and. knowing the merchant and that
il was he who had left II, had proceeded
with It directly to his store to deliver
1t into his hands.
The merchant was full of shame when
be saw this proof Of the boys honesty
and faithfulness, and reflected how
widely he himself had spread a false
and damaging report against him. He
gave the boy ten dollars, and did his ut
most to sec everyone who had heardthe
accusation; but he has little doubt that
the story was repeated to some who
will never hear, or will not believe, the
correction.
A false report not only travels swift
ly but widely, and 1t Is next TO impossi-
bic for denial TO follow 1t everywhere.

main long In the neighborhood.-
