USED VIGOROUS LANGUAGE.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 1.-THE war
department has received a report from
General Chatfee of the incident that oc-
currtd In Pckin In connection with
his representations 20 Field Marshal
Won Waldtnee II appears that Gem
crn chaffec did use some pretty Wig
orous Language In protesting against
The ,hleving and looting Of the foreign
troops. What particularly hurt the feel
lngs Of waldersee was a pointed refer
cnce by General Chaffce 10 the fact
that this dlsgraceful and unmIlItary
practice OF lootlng was being lndulged
In. not by the men who did the fghting
and opened the way TO Pekin, but by
the latecomcrs. who had borne none OF
the brunt Of conflict and hardship,
waldersee. himself. did not reach Pekin
until long after the expediuonary force
had occupied the town,
II Is recognized here officially that
General Chafiee had provocatlon for his
deliyerance, but regret Is felt that he
used this tone in addressing the field
marshal, Il is significantly pointed. out
here tina, perhaps Il was not incumbent
upon General Chaffee TO make any rep
rcsentations whatever on this subject
to the field marshal, as there Is no long
cr any official tie between them. When
the United States government changed
the character OF It's military represen-
tailon in Pekin from an expedition
AIRY force to mere legation guard,
OF course that guard no longer came
under the control OF the commander-in-
chief at Pekin. but was simply a part OF
Minister Conger'g official household.
