There Is a strong demand for some

All the foreigners believe that the
Chinese government has engineered the
outbrcaks and Is trying to call Off Its
troope after the downfall of Tien Tsln

powers are sending armies to China.

that the boanbardment of the legations
ceased on July II supports this theory
The foreigners think the ministers who

settlement with the government for the
effect Il would have on the populace.
An intensely bitter feeling prevails
against Ii Hung Chang. The papers
call him the most corrupt anti-foreign
official In China. and express the belief
that he proposes to save China from the
penalty OF her acts by embroillng the
