Have received telegram from
Governor Yuan, of Shang Tung

the Privy Council Cat Pekin) a dis
patch embodying an imperial letter
to the President of the United
States, has instructed me to trans
nit it to your Excelleney. The
imperial message is respectfully
transmitted as follows:
"The Emperor of China, to His
Excellency, the President of the
United States-Greeting: China
has long maintained friendly rela-
tions with the United States. and is
deeply conscious that the object Of
the United States is international
commerce. Neither country enter
tains the least suspicion or distrust
towards the other. The recent
outbreak Of mutual antipathy be.
tween the people and Christian
missions caused the foreign powers
to view with suspicion the imperial
government toward the missions,
with the result that the Taku forts
were attacked and captured. Con-
sequently there has been clashing
of forces with calamitious conse-
Guences. The situation has become
more and more serious and critical.

Fears a Democratic House-Other
News.
Chicago, July 25:-Hearsts Chica-
go American says:
The belief is growing that the
meeting of gold democrats called to
assemble at Indianapolis on July 25
will not be of much conse quence
politically. Judge J. D. Yeomans,
of Iowa, member of the Inter-
State Commerce Commission, spent
yesterday in Chicago, and was dis
posed to sneer at the Indianapolis
meeting. Yomans was originally
appointed a member of the Inter.
State Commerce Commission by
President Cleveland and with his
chief, bolted Bryan and the Chicago
platform in 1896.
This year Judge Yeomans is sup.
porting Bryan, and predicts that he
will be elected. To Chicago
American reporter Judge Yeomans
said:
Either Mr. Cleveland nor any
snember of his last Cabinet is tax
ing any stock in the meeting of
gold democrats to be held at India
apolis. So far as [ Can learn no
man of any Importance is identify
ing himself with the movement.
My Information is that formor
Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle
former Naval Secretary Herbet, and
former Postmaster General Wilson
have declared their intention to sup
port Bryan. Former Secretary of
State Olney did not bolt four years
ago, and he is not likely to bolt this
year.
sit is probable that J. Sterling
Morton is opposing Bryan more for
personal than political reasons, and
he is the only one Of Cleveland's
former political family. with the
exception OF Don Dickson of the
first Cabinet, who is antagonizing
the democratic nominees at this
time. It is my impression that only
those gold democrats who are will
ing to permit Hanna to pay their
expenses Will attend the Indiana

There have been only two Presi-
