assumption that there viii be the
slightest Improvement In the Chinese
situation. Indeed, the general tenor
of the news as found light was to add
to the steadily growing doubt as to the
good faith Of the Chinese government
as manifested In its acts. Admiral
Kempffs letter, given publicity by the
navy department yesterday, made the
direct statement that the imperial all-
thorities were in sympathy with the
Boxers, though he added that the gov
eminent was afterward paralyged and
incapable OF controlling the situation.
This was the first official declaration
TO reach orr government contradictory
of the Chinese representations that the
imperial government had steadfastly
and from the, first opposed the Boxer
bound to accept the word Of its own
officer until that is overcome by ire
futable evidence. Then the ex-
changes that are in constant progress
between the powers are tending more
and more to cast suspicion upon the
geLuineness of the many commnniea-
tons that have come from Peking
through Chinese governmental sources.

4 The Shanghai correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says he is still firmly
convinced that the ministers are safe,
but, with the exception Of an alleged
message from the japanese legation
in Peking dated July 10, brought by a
rnner saying that the legation was
still defending itself, nothing has yet
been published giving anything in the
nature of proof. On the other hand,
the daily incoming reports of the mas
sacre of missionaries and foreigners
leaves only the most slender thread
upon which to hang hope. Tie gem
aral situation is steadily becoming
darker, and crisis is said to be. fast
approaching. 1T is rumored in Shang-

News of the Utmost Importance Ex-
pected in Washington.
Washington, July 81. - There is a
growing expectation at the state de-
partnent that news Of the utmost inn
portsnce may be forthcoming at any
moment from Peking. 1t was even
thought that something might be re-
ceived yesterday, but this hope was
doomed to disappointment. The few
cablegrams that were received referred
10 minor matters and did not touch at
all upon conditions in the Chinese
capital It is known that a second eff
.ort has been made by our own gov
eminent to get another message from
Mr. Conger and that nearly all Of the
powers also have resorted to private
agencies in their own interest with a
like object. The fact has just been
developed that one of the last acts of
the late Col. Liscumb before his death
at Tien-tsin was to undertake the dis
patch of a spy to Peking. Gen. Dor.
ward, the British commanding officer
at Tien-tsin, also sent cut two messen-
gers, and it is believed that the Jap
anese did the same. Up to date not
one Of these messengers has returned
to Tien-tsin, nor has there been a
single word heard from any of them.
This fact however, has not caused the
abandonment of hope, and this is true
In particular of the message expected
from Mr.. Conger. Minister WI is, per-
maps, the basis for this hope on our
part, and he maintains an mistaken
confidence in his original assertion that
The news, when ii does come, will show
that the legationers are alive. The
message reported to have come
through Missionary Wilder at Chefu
Is regarded as most promising. Min.
lister WI had no cablegrans himself
yesterday, nor had the state depart
me11t any directly from China. Nothing
.urther has been heard as to the date
set for the beginning of the movement
rom Tien-tsin toward eking. and it is
said here that this is detail that
must be- fixed by the military COM
manders upon the spot.

CHINA WANTS PEACE.

Negotiations.

Negotiations.
London, July 1.-The Shanghai COR
respondent Of the Daily Express, tele-
graphing yesterday says:
IA new imperial edict promulgated
this evening urgently orders all vice
roys and provincial governments to
enaeavor to negotiate peace with the
powers, whose ministers are held as
hostages pending result of overtures
for the abandonment of hostilitics
against China. The yiceroys are also
commanded to guard their territories
vigilantly against attack and to pre-
vent by all means in their power the
advance of the foreign troops, and
especially along the Yang-tse kianS
The decree says that the officials VIII

Gated to the consuls the imperial de-
cree Of July "a he omitted important
passages addressed to LII Hung Chang:

the ministers, but it is equally unwise

SOME HAVE LEFT pEKING.
Iii Hung Chang Says so-ofd Fellow
BecOnfnG Angry.

The Shanghai correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph, telegraphing yester-
day. SAYS. Eli Hung Chang now
states that some members of the lega,
tons have already left Peking and may
be expected shortly. lie is becoming
angry at the skepticism of the consuls.
The impression is gaining ground here
that the ministers of the powers with
whom China has applied for media
zion may still be alive. The represen-
tatives of France, Japan, Russia and
the United States have visited Ii Hung
Chang, but the others still keep aloet.
The Americans here are indignant over
the fact that United States Consul
Goodnow has entered into relations
with Earl Ii. but Mr.. Goodnow de-
tends his action on the ground that he
is following the instructions of his
government. Trade in Shanghai is so
paralyzed that the customs revenue
viii not suffice to secure the payment
of the next installment Of the foreign
loan. Meanwhile active preparations
in the Yang-tse region for war are in
progress, not for war against the rebels
but against the foreign powers. junk
loads of Chinese soldiers and Boxers,
disguised as coolies, are arriving there
daily. The arsenal is full Of arms and
supplies are constantly coming in.

A notable sign of the times in Cuba
lis seen in Spanish immigration. In
the first four months Of this year
nearly six thousand spaniards came
over from Spain, to settle in the ISL
and. 1t is also observed that few of
the Spaniards who were in Cuba be-
fore and during the war have departed
because Of the change of government.
They, as well as the new immigrants,
seem to have faith in the peace and
prosperity of the island. Doubtless
this is largely because the power of
the United States is exerted in Cuba,
to restrain party hatreds and to pro
mote the general welfare. That fact
