FORCE TO BE REDUCED.

The navy department this afternoon is
sued the following statement:
I'm view of the possibility that later
when circumstances so warrant, the LAND
force in China will be materially reduced
the naval force in Asiatic waters will be
from time to time increased with refer
ence TO American interests in China and
also in the Philippines.
The order for the reduction of the mill
tary force has not been issued, but il
may go forward at any moment. Prelim-
mary orders were sent Gen. Chaffee fully
two weeks ago, directing him just how
to act in case he should receive orders tc
withdraw completely from China, and it is
expected that he has perfected his ar
rangements. The considerable force OF
marines, numbering about 1000 in all, arc
to be taken from Taku to Cavite.

Sir:-In response TO your inquiry of
the 18th inst. as to the government of

leaders in the crimes committed in Pc
( kin against international law, | have
| the honor to make the following State
ment:
| The government of the United States
has from the outset proclaimed it's pur-

ability the responsible authors. of any
wrongs done in China to citizens of the
| United States and their interests, as
| was stated in the governments circular
communication to the powers of July 3,

| Without abating in -anywise its de-

| countability from the responsible au-
thors of the wrongs we have suffered in
China, the government of the United
| States is not disposed to regard 1t as
preliminary condition to entering into
diplomatic negotiations with the Chi

! this government is disposed to hold that
punishment of the high responsible au-

Hanna Denies the Stump Report.
CANTON, Ohio, September 22.-Presi-
dent Mckinley returned to Canton
shortly before II a. NJ, accompanied by
Secretary Cortelyou. The President
did not wait for his special car to be
pulled up to the station, but hurried out
with the other passengers and drove to
his home.
Senator Hanna arrived here this af-
ternoon
Hanna were together during all the
time the latter was in the city to-day.
1T is said one of the objects of your
visit to Canton was to induce the Presi-
dent to take an active personal part in
the campaign; especially to have him
make some speeches in the west" re-
porter said to Senator Hanna.
That was not talked of; it was not
even thought Of" said the Senator. 81
merely wanted to talk over the cam
paign in general with the President and
report to him how matters are pro-
crossing"
From the first, it is stated,
the President has been opposed
to taking such a part. This, it is I'M
derstood, is partly due to a sentiment
that as chief executive of the nation he
should hold himself aloft from party
politics and also due to the fact that
the official cares of Office are such that
he cannot bear the additional physical
strain of work.

I WASHINGTON, September 22.-The
State Department tonight made public
the text of the notes addressed by it to
| the governments of Germany, Russia
and China in answer to inquiries from
them as to the attitude Of the United
States toward tn various phases of the
Chinese problem
| The official statement issued by the
Navy Department in advance of the
publication of the notes bears out pre-
diction finally decided upon. The state
ment from the Navy Department is full
of significance of a purpose on the
part of the government to see to it
| that if there is any subsequent at
tempt at territorial aggression on the
part of any of the powers who already
| have declared themselves as willing to
abide by the expressed determination
of the United States to refrain from
Selling upon Chinese territory, then the
| United States is to lose no right or
privilege which it now enjoys by such
action.
| The answer to the German note Is
carefully phrased so as to soften the
unqualified refusal of the United States
government to make the punishment
of the Chinese ring-leaderS a condition
precedent to negotiations.
The announcement that the depart
ment intends Immediately to begin,
through Mr.. Conger, conferences with
Ching and Lii Hung Chang, although
distinctly marking the fact that these
are only preliminary to final negotia-
tons, will have the effect to force the
other powers to an immediate deter
mination Of their policies in this mat
ter.

Imperial German Embassy,
WASHINGTON, September IS, 1900.
Mr.. Secretary:
By the direction of the Imperial
Chancellor, | have the honor to re-
spectfully communicate to Your Excel
lency the following: The government
Of His Majesty, the Emperor, consid-
ers as a preliminary condition for en-
tering into diplomatic negotiations with
the Chinese government a surrender OF
such persons as are determined upon
as being the first and real perpetrators
of the crimes committed in Pekin
against international law The num-
Der of perpetrators who served as tools
is too great; wholesale execution
would be averse to the civilized con-
science. Furthermore, circumstances
would not allow thai even the group of
leaders could be completely ascertain
ed. But the few among them whose
guilt is notorious should be surrender
ed and punished. The representatives
of the powers in Pekin will be in a
position to make or adduce in this in
vestigation fully valid testimony.
The government of His Majesty, the
Emperor, therefore, proposes to the in
terested cabinets that they request
their representatives in Pekin to des-
ignate the principal Chinese person
ages whose guilt in the instigation or
execution of the crimes is beyond a
doubt.
Requesting of Your Excellency re-
ply as soon as is possible | embrace
this occasion to tender the assurances of
my most distinguished consideration.

yesterday morning in the Circuit Court.
Hon. John o. Pendleton appeared for
the property owners who petitioned for
the Injunction, and the base ball club
was represented by Col. Geo. B. Cald-
we'll The specific answer was filed,
and the proceedings were brief. Short
statements were made by counsel on
both sides, and the matter was submit
ted. 1t is expected that decision will
be rendered within very short time.
In Part One, Judge Hervey, demurrers
in the case of N. Johnson VS.. Henry

Pittsburg Supply Company VS.. Avon

Der 18th, for argument and demurrer.

drawn and judgment was entered
against the plaintiff for costs.

is not executed within ten days the

In Park Two, Judge Melvin, w. ].
Colts, by his counsel, made application
for bail pending the disposition OF his
appeal to the Supreme Court on writ
of error. The petition recites familiar
facts in connection with the case, and
continuing AYERS that the physical and
mental condition Of the prisoner is i'm
paired by confinement. Petitioner fur
Their AYERS that he has a position in
Philadelphia with a salary of $4,000
year awaiting him, and that if his pray
err is granted he can secure bond.
In his argument Col. Arnett made
the point that writ Of error vitiates
for the time being, the judgment of the
lower court. 1t is the intention of the
law that a prisoner may be admitted
to bond pending a determination of his
guilt. The question involved was
whether the court had authority to ac-
cept bail, and he thought circuit judges
could exercise discretionary powers
under the State statutes. Prosecuting
Attorney Meyer and S. o. Boyce, in
their reply, denied that courts had such
rights. The matter was submitted.
