American machines because although
they performed their work perfectly, they

The New York Herald QndD says THE
attack made by the forts at Taku upon
the foreign warrhips in the harbor means
that war has actually begun, and the
speedy capture Of the Qualifications fore
shadows the rapldity with which the COM
biued foreign forces will NOW down the
natives and wade through their blood TO
the capital when a concerted programme
of action is agreed upon. Perhaps the
decentralized system of government, with
it's eighteen provinces. each ruled by a
Governor General and with inadequate
means of communication and transporta-
ton, may admit of the instruction being
suppressed and a new authority being
installed at Pekin by the Powers before
general revolt occurs throughout the
empire. In any event the problem of
dealing with a territory three times as
large as India and with a population
of four hundred millions, is one OF the
most gigantic recorded in history"

The New orleans Picayune Qem) says:
There are really few Americans who be-
