MORGAN ON CHINA.
The Senator Fs Expecting Called
Session of Congress.

Huntsville, Ala. July lin letter to
a personal friend IN Huntsville, Senator
John I. Morgan of Alabama gives his
opinion on the Chinese question.
I'VE have reached the point where ex-
pansion divides itself into a question of
influence guaranteed by treaty, and a
question of occupancy" said Senator Nor
gan. Expansion by occupancy Stops al
the border, yet expansion by influence
has occurred In China under the command
ment, Go We into all the world, etc, and
we are compelled to support II with all
our power and great expense, without the
hope OF reward in land or money.
Nations, like men, have their influences
and are bound 10 protect their fruits If
they are legitimate and good. The circle
of our influence has greatly expanded, ana
IL has received recognition in many ma
tions When that IL done by treaty. il
is our duty TO protect such advantages
and our people for when they are intend
ed. This demand Justihes our course in
China. The situation there is too serious
TO be managed by the President without
the aid OF Congress. and / am expecting
q called session OF Congress"

GERMANS NEWS BETTER.
Ii shows Greater Success for the
Allies on July l3.


Berlin, July 17.-An official of the Ger
man foreign office to-day. pointed out
that Germany's news from the fight at
Tien Tsin on July ID, was more favorable
than the reports of the American admiral
Admiral Bendemann has reported that the
attack upon the Chinese was successful,
but not wholly So one fort remaining I'M
captured.
Referring to the proposition for an in
ternational conference, made in the Ger
man press, the official said:
Such plan has not yet been preached
by the Powers. A conference Is not ne
cessary at this stage of the developments,
iuasmuch as interchange of views be-
tween cabinets is the quickest way to
reach an agreement upon measures for
Common action in China"
When asked whether the massacre at
Pekin had caused a change in the at
ii ude of any rowsr, the official replied:
at has not and no fresh interchange
of views has been called forth in conse-
quence" The official added The mas
sacre has not altered Germany's, policy
in China but has confirmed it,
The situation of the foreigners at
Shanghai awakens concern here. The Co
logne Gazette prints a powerful article,
arguing that the Powers should treat the
Chinese just as barborous African tribes
are treated by Europeans, who burn whole
villages as a punishment for crime. 1t
says:
Should the punishment be any less for
a people proud of their antique civiliza-
ton, like the Chinese, who must be con-
scious of their atrocities, than for the
savage and the cannibal? Certainly not
since the higher the civilization the more
| aggravating the circumstances. Con-
sequently Pekin should be raised to the
ground"
The volunteer troops for the China ex-
peditionary corps have begun moving
from the garIisons in Berlin, Dresden
Cassei. Strassburg and Dantzig toward
! the ports of embarkation.

DESTROYED A MISSION.
This Is Probably an Extension of the
Boxer Movement.

Washington. July 1.-THE Secretary of
State has received a dispatch from Mr..
Allen, the American minister in Corea,
saying that the Boxers, on Saturday,
July IA, destroyed a Catholic mission,
three miles from the Corean boundary
and fifty miles from the American mines.
II is believed in the state department
that the American mines referred to are
certain gold mining concessions i'm the
province of Ping Yang, the most northern
province of Corea and one which butts
on Manchuria While the dispatch is not
explicit it is thought that the disturb
ance occurred on the Manchurian side OF
the border, and therefore. more than
ffty miles from the nearest American set
element. II probably means an extension
Of the northern Boxer movement and por-
tends additional trouble for Russia in
keeping open her lines OF communics ton
in Manchuria and northward from Port
