Having Separate Plans Regarding the
Yang Use Valley
London. Press dispatches from
Berlin, dated Saturday, state that Off
cial cirelss emphasize the statement
that Germany, after taxing Of Pekin
and Field Marshall Count Won Wal
dersee's appointment to the command
of the allied forces In China, stands
precisely in the same attitude as be-
fore. Germany, 1t is added, still In
sists on carrying ont the program
which the minister of foreign affairs.
Count Won Buelow, published In his
circular of July 3, and which was ap-
prove here and abroad. 1t Is also OIL
oially claimed that all the other pow
ers interested still adhere to that pro-
gram, of which there now remains two
most important paragraphs, VIZ; AIDE
ouate redress for Chinese crimes
against International rights and the
resumption of ordinary state of affairs
and the installation of government
willing and able to give guarantees,
that there will be no recurrence of
the recent outrages.
DISTRUST OF OTHER POWERS.
Many papers, however continue to
express distrust of the intentions OF
the other powers, especially Great
Britain and France, claiming they
have separate plans regarding the
Yang Use valley and the southern
provinces. So far as Russia is con-
cerned, the German press Is not exer-
cised, because it has been officially
mitted by Germany that Germany
does not oppose any Russian plans
affecting the northern provinces, as
not touching Germany's political or
commercial interests. The bslief is
generally held here by both the gov
eminent and press that Count Won
Waldersee will find plenty to do after
his arrival in China, even if his COM
mand is restricted to the province Of
Pc chi Ii. The leading Centris or
gan, the Cologne Volks Zsltung, forms
an exception to this rule, sounding
warning against Won Waldersse' over
stepping the bounds drawn by Count
ven Buelow.
VIEWS OF The CHINESE DIPLO-
MAT,
The Lokal Anzeiger publishes an
interview with Chinese dIpomst
here who is quoted rs saying:
Neither the emperor nor the dow
ager empress Will return to the caritsl
until the foreign troops are with
drawn. Therefore the allies had bet
ter appoint each provisional govern
ment or a regent, proposing for the
latter Prince Ching"
The Chinese diplomat also advises
concluding peace and accepting til,
offer of Lii Hung Chang, 'wno, as
suredly is empowered either by th'
tsung Ii yamen, the emperor or til,
empress dOwager."
He further remarked that the wa
was certainly over, "slnce China ha
neither generals soldiers nor materia
left"
The only danger of a renewal 0
hostilities, he declared, was "if harm
befell the empress or emperor.
The foreign Office publishes lette
from the taotal or Annoy to the Ger
man consul there. expressing his dee
rerget at the death of Baron Won Ket
