was supplied to him by telegraph by the
Chinese governor of Shan Tung, Yum
Shih-Kai, at Tai Nan, the capital of the
province.
II was issued on July II and relates tc
the present hostilities between China
and the foreign powers. The dispatch
containing the edict came to the state
department in such confused phrasealo-
gy that it is impossible to do more than
approximately state its sense.
The edict appears TO state in the be-
ginning that owing to trouble existing
between the Christians and the popu-
lace, and to the subsequent seizure Of
the Taku forts, which aroused the mill
tary TO arms, the imperial court was lay
ing great weight upon its international
relations.
The Manchu generals, therefore, vice
roys and governors, are ordered to as
certain whether the merchants and mis-
sionaries of the various nations residing
IN the open ports are being protected,
and the assertion is made that projects
and magistrates have been sent repeated
imperial edlets to protect the legations
Orders also have been sent to the pro-
vincial autho~ ties TO protect the mis-
sionaries. While hostilities have not
yet ceased, the Chinese officials are di-
reeted to give protection TO tke mer-
chants and others Of the various nations

expresses the deepest sympathy ON &C.
count of his death, and asserts that
stringent instructions would be issued
to seize the murderer, who must be
caught and severely punished after the
termination of the present hostilities,
together with those who have murdered
foreigners and missionaries or taken
their property without cause.
The language of the edlct, as given by
Mr.. Fowler on this SUBJECTS very much
involved, but it appears to exempt from
punishment those who have killed for
eigners connected with war; The
governor of Pekin and the vieeroy of
Chi LII are charged to issue Instructions
to investigate and then to deal intelli-
gently with each case of wrongdoing
The edict states that recently evildoers
created riots, deliberately rebelled and
murdered good subjects; certainly, it
says, deplorable state of affairs All
yieeroys, governors and high military
authorities are ordered to obtain accur-
ate details, presumably of the outrages
committed by Chinese and to make such
seizures and take such action as the
cases warrant in order to stop the dis
turbanees.
Beside the reference 10 the seizure of
the Taku forts as one of the causes of
the uprising, the significant features of
the edict is the underlying expression
of the desire of the imperial government
of China, not only to protect the for
eigners, but to make reparation for the
injuries they have sustained. That
would seem to be the meaning of the
instructions to the Chinese viceroys and
magistrates to take steps to ascertain
the extent of these injuries. Otherwise
the edict is mainly argumentative and
appears to be an effort to extenuate the
course of the imperial government. As
such it may be properly laid aside for
the present, to be taken up for con-
sderation in the final reckoning, and
such will be the course Of the state de.

entangie the government of the United
States in Chinese affairs. 1t of course,

does not follow from that cooperation
that il will be led into taking part in

over the future of China after our peo-
pie have been taken care of. 1t is the
intention of the administration to with
draw our forces, military and naval,
after the Americans in Pekin have been
relieved and wash its hands of Chinese
affairs, looking only to the preservation
of such privileges it has right to re-
tain for Americans.
