the War Department disregarded a recom- mendation of General Macarthur and drew still further on the available troops in the Philippines This, however, was a future contingency, which would not have to be met until it arose. Secretary Root expressed the hope that the first news of the dis astrous battle on the 18th at Tien Ts1n might prove to be exaggerated; but the War Department, it was stated, had no official information beyond that transmitted in Admiral Remeys cablegram Of this morning.
 General Miles was called upon by Secre- tary Root during the afternoon to counsel with him as to the projected troop move ments. He favors the prompt dispatch of large force to China.
 good deal of annoyance has been caused here by the complete misunderstanding that has been conveyed to the European nations as to the attitude of the United States gov ernment regarding the settling of the Chin csc troubles This government it can be stated authoritatively, never has thought of compromising for money or any other form of indemnity. Indeed, the subject of money indemnity or of an apology never has been thought of or mentioned by the government of the United States. The gov ernment will insist on justice and retribu- tion, according to the highest authorities.
 The War Department officials were unable to say who commands the Ninth Infantry since the death of Colonel Liscum. The impression prevails that the Lieutenant Colonel is ill at Manila, and that the regi- ment or what is left of it, will find its se- nior and consequent commanding officer in one of the Captains. Incidentally. it may be mentioned that through Colonel Lis cum's death Captain McCala, of the New ark, if ashore, is the ranking American officer.

 All of the troops within the borders of the United States that would be available for Chinese service under a call are these regiments: Second, Fifth, Seventh and Eighth Cavalry regiments intact, one squadron each of the Frst and the Sixth Cavalry, the First, Tenth and Eleventh Infantry regiments and three companies of the Twenty-fourth Infantry. This avail able force of cavalry and infantry aggre- gates about 5000 men.

 Secretary Root Talks
 Secretary Root was reluctant to admit that there was any necessity for more American troops in China and at the close of the day he said that thus far he had issued no orders for endorsements Con- tinuing, he said that the regiments already prepared for Chinese service, those now in China and those now af1oat, amount to 10, 66o men of all arms. Secretary Root said that in view of the small standing army of the United tSates, of our insignificant force of field artillery as compared with that of the great European powers and of our lack of territorial interest in China, this 10000 men represented more than the United States pro rata share of the international force which is to operate against Pekin. The War Department he said, so far has responded in full to every demand made upon it by the joint conference of foreign commanders in China. The situation has changed so rapidly from day to day as to alter the estimate of the foreign com- manders several times
 It is possible that the estimate of troops scheduled for Chinese service will again be increased
 If so, the United States will respond. By securing this country and denuding 1t of regular troops, except very few in the heavy artillery in charge of the heavy sea- coast guns and by making still further demands upon soldiers in Cuba and Porto Rico, we might possibly gather between three and four thousand additional troops.
