London, Sept. 4.-The most reliable
Peking date is now nearly fortnight
old. An undated dispatch has been re-
ceived at Vienna reporting that the
allied troops marched through the i'm
perial palace Aug. %, but it was
known that this date had been fixed
by the allies for a formal promenade.
There is no news of any kind The
Hong Kong correspondent of the Daily
Mail says the Canton officials have
been ordered to transmit all possible
revenue to the north for war expenses
and that all pay of the officers from
the viceroy downward has been
stopped during hostilities.
The Vienna correspondent of the
Standard telegraphs that he learns
from a good source that the Germans,
Austrians and Italians will remain in
Peking after the Russians withdraw
Shanghai and Hong Kong dispatches
express the utmost astonishment at
the idea Of evacuating Peking.
The Daily News suggests editorially
that Russia may have made secret
terms with China behind the backs of
the powers. The Standard expresses
qualification at the explanation that
the United States government does not
approve Of Russia's proceedings.
The Daily Express publishes an in
terview with a New York Chinaman,
Liu Chah, now staying in London, who
admits Iii Hung Changes "duplicity
and rooted antagonism to western
IDEAS" but thinks that the allies have.
no choice but to negotiate with him or
to retire from China altogether. NJ.
De Blowitz, the Paris correspondent of
the Times, asserts that the origin of
Russia's decision to evacuate Peking
was her desire to frustrate the
schemes of Emperor William and to
correct the impression produced by the
kaiser's speech attributing to Emperor
Nicholas the appointment of Field
Marshal Count Won Waldersee to the
command of the international troops"

Dateless cablegram From Min

CHING MAY BECOME REGENT

1oWers urging Him to Return to Peking
and Head the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Nations Trying to Induce Russia Not to
Withdraw Troops From Capital.
Washington, Sept. A dispatch
from Minister Conger was received by
the state department yesterday. 1t
was chiefly interesting in being the
first word from him since his dispatch
OF about the 2Zth ult., referring to the
proposed parade of troops through the
imperial palace in Peking. Like that
dispatch, this is dateless as to Pekiny.
The contents were not made public.
but it was stated that it contained
nothing materially changing the stu
alton. The lack of date led to deter
mination to take energetic steps by
which all dispatches hereafter coming
to the state department from China
will have the date clearly stated. Two
other dispatches received from China
referred to the state of health of the
troops, which is generally satisfactory.
1t cannot be learned that there has

negotiations between the powers
touching the withdrawal of the inter
national forces from Picking. The
plain indication is that the powers are
acting OH the information conveyed in
the last note of the state department.
and are bringing all their influence to
bear on Russia to induce her to change
her mind in withdrawing troops. For
some reason the authorities here ap-
pear to feel growing confidence that
this effort will be successful. 1t is
noted as fact Of great significance
that the proposition is being advanced
to have Prince Ching return to Pc
king as the acting head of the Chinese
government. The suggestion is made
that the progress of this wave of re-
organization while the international
troops are still in Picking, promising
as 1t does speedily to provide an ac-
tual de facto Chinese government with
which the nations may treat without
further doubt as to it's strength, may
solve the present problem and put the
Chinese question in Sair way to
final and satisfactory settlement.
