EngIand's Views.
ers

London, Aug. 27.-The policy of the
United States toward China is watched
here with more interest than is that of
any other country, for Englishmen be-
lieve somehow or other that in the trouble
ahead America will be the only power
with interests parallel with theirs. The
Spectator discussing the ties connecting
the powers, says: continental statesmen
look askance at the new force, America,
whose limits they do not clearly under
stand, and which, for example, can send
black troops to China, and ,ney mutter
words about the possible Anglo-SaXon UNI
derstanding, and would, if they could
gladly postpone all action so as to have
more time for reflection and combination,
only, you see, Pekin is in flames, the Chi
nese Semiramis is ON her way to Singan
Flu and a Russian general publicly reports
ltnat the Amur now flows through Russian
territory.
Japan has been watching Europe and
observers are uncertain what her states
men intend.
That the French government is prepar-
ing for war there can no longer be any
doubt"

Germany's Views.

Berlin, Aug. 27.-Ofiicial circles here
emphasize the statement that Germany,
after the taking of Pekin and Field Mar
shall Count Won Waldersee's appointment
to the command of the allied forces in
China, stands in precisely the same atti-
tude as before Germany, it is added, still
insists in carrying out the program which
the minister of foreign affairs, Count Won
Buelow, published in his circular of July
and which was approved here and abroad.
Ii is also officially stated that the other
powers interested still adhere to that pro-
gram, of which there now remain two
most important paragraphs, viz: AIDE
quate redress for ~.linese crimes against
International rights and the re-esta blish-
menE of an orderly state of affairs and The
installation of a government willing and
able to give guarantees against the recur-
renee of the recent outrages. Many pa
pers, however, continue to express distrust
of the intentions of several of the powers,
claiming they have separate plans regard
ing the Yanetse valley and the southern
provinces. So far as Russia is concerned,
the German press is not exercised, because
il has been officially admitted by Ger
many that Germany does not oppose any
Russian plans affecting the northern pro-
vinces, as not touching Germany's polit-
zeal or commercial interests The belief
is generally held here by both the govern
pient and he press that Count Won Wal
dersee will find plenty to DO after his ar
rival in China even if his coming is re-
stricted to the province of Pe-chi-li.

the one power least under suspicion by
the others of selfish and Interior motives.
1ms government is exceedingly anxious
to maintain this vantage ground and re-
tam the confidence of the other porwers,
so that it is now more than ever cautious
as to the next step to be taken.
Chinese officials expressed a belief that
Ii Hung Chang, the Chinese peace envoy,
had started for Pekin or Hentsin. While
there is said to be no official advices to this
effect, yet it is so in accord with the ex-
pectations of China's course that the Off
Gals accept it as a fact. If this proves to
be correct it may bring about early OPP
portunity for personal exchanges between
Earl Ii and the commanders of the allies
and the ministers of the respective pow
ers.

Dallas, Tex, Aug. pa special from
Fl Paso says:
The Iaqui Indians in the state of So

retain their property. Two prominent va

G.. A. IL. Encampment.

Chicago, Aug. 26.-The national en-
campment OF the q. A. r. was opened
Saturday by the dedication of the new
Cclisuem,in which the joint campfres Of
the reunion, the wartime concerts for the
veterans and the religious and other eX-
ercises for me public incidental to the
enampment will be held. The Coliseum

teenth and Sixteenth streets, and within
its walls tonight were gathered 10000 peo-
pie. a chorus of 1000, costumed to repre-
sent a living flag, occupied an immense
platform at one end of the building, and
close by them was the great band of 100
pieces that will render the concerts dur
ing the coming week of the encampment.

IFrance's Views.

While no official statement is fOrthcOm-
ing as to the position of France, in the
absence from Paris of those in control of
her foreign policy, the following, emanat-
ing from an official associated with the
French government, expresses the views
OF the foreign office at the present juno
ture:
I'VE have no revenge to seek in China
and we have no intentions to demand such
recompense in the shape of indemnities
as will create resentment against foreign
ers. Our policy will be one of liberal edu-
cation, the effort to teach this great mass
of people to trust and regard Europeans
favorably. In the end this may result in
the advancement of civilization for the
one and commercial prosperity for the
Others Those who think that a changes
of government will change the character
of the Chinese people have not broad
understanding of the deep-seated ideas
which centuries have bred in them. To
make a radical upheaval of their form of
government just at this time would do
more harm than good. We shall attempt
to find a suitable person of liberal ideas
towards foreigners who will assume the
reins of government. Our position follows
the identical lines of the United States in
nearly every instance. Commercially we
wish the broadest international construc-
ton to be placed on foreign privileges,
and it is a fact that had not your cOun-
try declared an open door at the time it
did, France herself would have done so.
The reply made by the United States to
Ii Hung Changes request for the appoint
ment of an emissary to act with view
to settlement and the establishment of
peace receives general approval here.
France will take a similar position, for
we must be assured that we are negotiat-
ing with a concrete body, and not with a
shadow While we have special CONNER
cial interests in Yunan and Sze-chuen,
our desire to develop that region would be
defeated should we act on narrow, selfish
ideas there"

Russians Against Chinese.

Washington, Aug PA cablegram has
been received from Admiral Remey in
which he states it is reported that the
Russian commander at PelSih has forbidden
any communication between his force and
the Chinese.
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-08-31

Washington, Aug. 26-The diplomatic
feature of the Chinese situation Saturday
took precedence over both the naval and
military features The officials of this
government were, if anything, more I'M
communicative than heretofore as to the re-
lations between the powers. 1t was stated
aUthoritatively that no news of importance
had been received, and that the diplomatic
negotiations could not be made public.
The most unsatisfactory developments
of the day, so far as the pacific program of
TINS government goes, was the receipt of
dispatch from Admiral Remey conveying
the reports which had reached him OF a
disagreement between the commander of
the Russian forces in. Pekin and the other
intenatiOnals. The text of this dispatch
was not made public, but it was said on
good authority to contain the statement
that the Russian commander had forbidden
communication with the Chinese on the
ground that Russia was technically as
we'll as practically at war with China.
Ii may be said that the information was
not conveyed by Admiral Remey as ofli-
cial news, but merely as a report from re-
liable sources which he considered this
government should possess for its own in
formauOn.
Assuming Admiral Remey's report to be
correct, this move on the part of Russia
strikes the first note of discord in the
heretofore harmonious concert of the
powers. 1t may be said, however, that
the news is not taken very seriously by
this government, and certainly will not
affect our course in any way until 1t has
been officially confirmed.
1t was explained that the situation
growing out of the joint occupation OF
Pekin by the powers was delicate, g.
though not necessarily to be described as
serious. The international powers there
were reported at least antagonistic, and
an ill-considered move on the part OF any
one government might easily entail dis
agreeable consequences in which all would
be more or less involved. At the same
time it was explained that all of the gov
ernments represented in China were
anxious to avert any open clash If this
could be done without sacrificing what
they considered their rights in the prem
ises. In this situation the United States
occupied the position it has held all
through the disturbance, namely, OF being

Later.

Washington, Aug. 27.-Russia, Ger
many and Japan have not declared war
upon China, either separately or in con-
thority of the highest character. What
those nations may do in the next 4S
hours or within the next fortnight is
a question which no one in Washington
is prepared to answer.
