united states NOT In ACCORD With
Germany's Chinese Policy-All But
One Regiment of Troops Will be
Withdrawn-Wu Not Pleased With
Our Answer to China.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. Sept. 2l.-The
United States government has made
full and complete answers to the var
ious important inquiries that have been
addressed to It by the powers relative
to the Chinese trouble Moreover, 1t has
gone farther and has made q disclosure
OF all Of Its purposes and as member
Of the administration puts 1t. It has
thrown down its hand open upon the
table. This action was taken after the
cabinet meeting to-day. and a luncheon
at the white house that followed served
to reduce the decision to the ultimate
form.
AT $3.50 o'clock. Minister WI called by
appointment. upon Acting Secretary
Hill. and was handed q memorandum
embodying the response of the United
States government to the request OF
Prince Ching that Mr.. Conger. or some
other person be.lmmcal1teIy3 empower.
| cd to begin negotiations with the chi-
nese authorities for final settlement.
Wu's Dissatisfied Look.
The minister came away with dis
satisfied expression upon his face. Next
came NJ. Thiebaut, the French charge
A few minutes conversation sunlccd to
impnrt to him orally an answer to his
own verbal inquiry.
Then Baron Sternberg. the German
charge, who had been notified OF the
readiness of the state department to
make answer to the German note,
called and was given that answer. He
hastened away to cable It to his gov
ernment.
The department then sent the answer
to the Russian inquiry forward by
tanning the substance of the answers to
Its diplomatic representatives abroad.
Thus closed one Of the most interesting
and important phases Of the Chinese
entanglement.
Refused to Make n Statement.
The state department absolutely re-
fused to make any statement as TO the
nature of the answers, taking the
ground that to do SO would be a viola
tIon Of the diplomatic properties.
With all this, 1t Is known that the
German proposal that negotiations with
China be deferred until the Chinese re-
sponsiblc for the Pekin outrages have
been surrendered TO the allies, hns fail
cd of approval by our government.
The government does not relinQulsh
the idea Of the ultimate punishment OF
the offenders when they are properly
Identified, but II does not believe that
the pursuit Of this object should put
stop to all negotiations.
1t Is believed that the outcome, from
military point, OF to-dny's action, will
be the withdrawal OF all but one regl-
