Pekin.
GROUNDS OF BELIEF
While Not Officially Stated
Are Known To Coincide
With Americas
Belief.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 6.-An official
announcement was made soday oy the
state department., confirming the news
exclusively published In these dispat'
ches yesterday, shat the powers have
decided to retain their forces In Pekin.
ALL OF the powers have made response
TO Russia's proposition for the evscua-
sion Of the Chinese capital. aud their
replies have been communicated to the
state department here. They are una
nimous in declaring their belief that IL
would be dangerous for the inserna-
tioual troops TO leave Pekin now.
Under the circumstances IL is suppcs
ed thas Russia will have TO modify
her proposal, and the question yet to
be decided is what compromise can be
agreed upon.
While the contents of the various
replies are necessarily at present kept
as confidential, IL is learned from high
authority that the principal reasons
that have actusted the powers in re-
jecting Russia's proposal are:
First, that an evacu alton OF Pekin ~
shis stage would be accepted by the
people, and would be so reported TO
them by their officials, as an act Of
cowardice on the part of tae powers.
They would believe that the foreigners
had been so impressed with what they
had seen At Pekin that they were
afraid TO remain there.
Second, that it would be disastrous
to the native Christians for the allied
troops to leave Pekin. There are abous
90, 600 of these Chinese Christians In
Pekin, and while there is no doubt that
many of them have been killed 10 is
also true that many yet live. To leave
these people without protection, with
out any guarantees having been secur-
ed for their safety, ~ouli inevitably
result Ia their mass acre.
Third, that since R1ssis's proposal
to evacuste Pekin became known the
southern provinces of China have
shown signs of unrest, aud there have
been indications of q spread OF the
anti-foreiRn sentiments there. The
rumblin1s OF coming trouble in this
section of the empire, woich we're
mild at fret, have been recently
increasing in volume, and toe pros
poets of rioting and anti-foreiRn de-
monstrssions have been nosfceably
growing since the czsr's plan was
announced.

MORE MEM GERS.
Needed For The Chamber of Com

Secretary Russell of the Chamber Of
Commerce has made list of over two
hundred names OF ir di viduals, firms and
corporations that ought to be on the
roll OF the chamber of commerce but
are not. A copy OF this list has been
mailed to each director OF the cham
Der, accompanied by the following
letter:
Herewith / encloee list of names of
individuals, firms and corporations not
yet on the roll of membership OF the
cham Der OF commerce. It Was agreed
at the last meeting of the board OF
In conjunction with the secretary In an
effort to secure additional members.
Kindly examine the list, write in any
additional names that may occur to
you and bring the list will you at the
next monthly meeting of the board,
which will be held next Tuesday, Sep
tember 11th. Copies OF the ssmi-snnusl
report OF the secretary have been
mailed to most OF the names on the
within list. Whenever you secure a
definite promise from any of these non
members to become members OF the
cham Der kindly inform the secretary,
that he may call upon them with the
roll of membership for signature. The
surplus funds of the chamber are now
entirely exhausted. and ~ the work
already in hand and contemplated is TO
be prosecuted, addition al revenues muss
be provided.
Every member OF the chamber Of the
commerce ought to make 1t bis business
individually to aid In the effort to Sc
cure additional members. 1t is not fair
to the present members OF the chamber
shat they should pay all the cost Of the
work OF the cham Der while their neigh
bors who are not members share In tt e
benefit. Each member of the chamber
should call upon one Of the directors,
look over the list of names above men
toned, decided what particular nom
members he can ioAuence TO join, and
then make a determined effort in that
direction. Ia this way 1t is believed
that's a. least q hundred more members
can he quickly secured.

ALLEGED DEFEAT OF ALLIES.
War Department Omcials Discredit
the Story,

No confirmation comes from any quarter
of the report from French sources that the
Chinese have recaptured Pekin, and the
War Department officials here completely
discredlt the story. They believe that 1t Is
capable of explanation, however, when read
in the light of Minister Congers statement
yesterday that the allied generals had de-
cided net to enter the imperial palace, and
also in view of the press reports Of the
sudden abandonment by the American and
Russian troops of the attack on the palace
gates after capturing four out of five Of
them.
1t Is believed here that the allied generals
adopted this course, after having been con-
vinced that the small palace guard, IT, in
deed, any guard remained within the palace
walls, should not be regarded with appre-
hension. in order to avoid looting. The i'm
perial palace is known to be stored with the
most magnificent Measures of oriental art.

walls. 1t Is probable that the relaxation

We passed over the first wall without

EXPORTS TO TURKEY.
Must BE Accompanied by Certificates
of Origin.

United States Charge d'Afaires Griscom
at Cons stantinople in a recent letter to the
Department of State furnishes additional
information concerning the certificates Of
origin required by Turkish law on ship
ments of merchandise to the Ottoman en-
pire.
The Turkish minister of foreign affairs
informed Mr.. Griscom that the certificates
should be such as the United States gov
ernment is accustomed to give, no particu-
lar form being required. They are, how
ever, TO be given at the point Of origin of
the merchandise, and not at the point of
shipment For instance, goods shipping
from Milwaukee via New York must have
a certificate from the authorities at Mil
waukee, and the legalization of the Turkish
consul at New York is unnecessary Goods
originating in cities where Ottoman con-
suls are located, however must obtain the
consular legalization to the certificates. As
to the responsible local authority which
should issue the certificates, says Mr.. Girls
com, there seems to be no satisfactory un-
derstanding. The Turkish officials recently
refused 10 recognize a general certificate of
the Liverpool chamber of commerce testi-
flying TO the origin of a ships cargo

GUIDA TO BE DEPORTED.
Alleged Anarchist an Undesirable I'M
migrant-Maresca still Held.

mtgrant-Maresca still Held.
NEW YORK, August 2S.-The Italian
Guda, who arrived in this country two
weeks ago on the Kaiser Wilhelm III, in
company with the alleged anarchist Ma
resca another Italian, was ordered exclud-
ed today instructions from the Treasury
Department. He will be deported TO Eu-
rope. Marescas case has not been de-
cided. Guida and Maresca were suspected
of being anarchists when they arrived in
this country, and there were reports that
Maresca had come to kill President McKin-
ley in accordance with a plot hatched in
Italy. The men have been detained on
Ellis Island.
The board of special inquiry of the immi-
grafton bureau decided to hold Guida no
longer, as it shown that he had no
connection with Maresca either in politi-
cal other manner. Because he was an
undesirable immigrant and because he had
come over as a stowaway and no one had
paid his so fine 1t was decided to exclude
and deport him from the country.
Maresca's case is still in allegiance.
