DEFIED BY CHINA.
European Ministers Detained in Pekin
Pending Negotiations with Nations.

European Ministers Detained in Pekin
Pending Negotiations with Nations.
An imperial edict saying that the Eu-
ropean ministers at Pekin are held as
hostages to deter the allies advance on
the capital leaves no room to doubt that
China has been deceiving the powers. The
edict orders the viceroys to prepare to
oppose the march on Pekin of the Euro
pean army at Tien-Tsln.
Secretary Hay returned from his con-
ference with the President in Canton and
called a conference of the cabinet. In
this conference the whole situation was
gone over in the light of dispatches re-
ceived from Consul General Goodnow
and Rear Admiral Remy. Mr.. Goodnow' s
dispatches gave the result of the con-
ference he had with Ii Hung Chang at
the direction of the State Department.
These dispatches were not made pub
lie, but it is understood they are de-
cidedly pessimistic in tone and gave lit
tie ground for hope that the foreigners
in Pekin could be rescued or that the
Chinese government could be depended
upon to aid in the protection Of foreign
ers and in the restoration of order.
Members Of the administration are re-
luctant to discuss the possibility of a
general declaration of war. by the powers
against China, but, at the same time, it
cannot be concealed that matters are
drifting in that direction. If the other
powers should declare war the President
would at once call an extra session of
Congress and the subsequent policy Of
the United States would be determined
by the law-making department of the
government. Secretary Hay is reluctant
ly coming to the conclusion that the al
legged message received from Minister
Conger was a forgery and that all the
ministers in Pekin are probably dead.
It was admitted at the State Depart
ment that there was a missing copy Of
the departments copy of the code and
that copy was in the possession Of the
Chinese government. This has led the
officials to think that the proposition of
the viceroy, Ii Hung Chang, to deliver
the ministers from their supposed dan
ger in Pekin is merely craftily con-
cocted scheme to lay the basis for an
other story. That will be to the effect
with what seemed at the time to be a
sufficient guard, but after proceeding
short way from the imperial city they
were beset by Boxers, the guards over
powered and the ministers and all with
them slaughtered.
Convinced that this is the scheme, the
administration has refused to sanction
any such proceedings. It's position is
simply this: Should the ministers still
live, which they doubt, any such jour-
ney would mean their death, and to con-
sent to such an undertaking would be to
connive at their death. If they are dead,
then the government would be aiding the
Chinese officials in prepetrating an out
falsehood. Therefore the cab
met officers decided to stand aloof and
insist upon the principal clause in the.
Presidents answer to China's appeal for
opening of communication
with the ENJOYS following upon assur-
ances by China that they still exist.

Rathbone. Whether or not the latter
was guilty with Nicely in the embezzle-
