Minister Sends Another Dispatch.
Washington, July 16.-The Chinese
minister has sent a cable dispatch to
the taoti of Shantung, telling him that
the American government is exceeding
ly anxious as to the fate of Minister
Conger. and requesting him to cable
any information he may have on that
point This is in addition to the cable
gram he forwarded Wednesday at the
request of Secretary Hay. The second
dispatch said in substance:
american government and people
greatly concerned over safety of Minister
Conger at Peking. Can you give me any
information on the subject?"
! The taoti Of Shanghai is high official
who viii be apt to get the earliest reli-
able information, and this personal ap-
peal from the minister may bring some
reliable news on the situation.
Minister WI was much depressed by
the continued reports that the lega-
tions had been wiped out and the min
! listers murdered. To all inquiry he sor-
rowfullv shakes his head and says that
, he has absolutely no information and
can only hope for the best. The report
of the killing OF the Russian minister
and his wife was another severe blow,
but as to this also, Minister Wu> said
that he had absolutely no news.
Miles Calls ut Chinese Legation.
Washington. July 16.-Lieut. Gen.
Miles called at the Chinese legation Sat-
urday and had talk with the Chinese
! minister, Mr.. WI. This naturally
aroused comment in connection with
the vague rumors afoat that Gen. Miles
might go to China. 1t was stated later,
however, by those in position to be
/ thoroughly informed Of Gen. Miles
plans, that the call on Minister WI was
! and that Gen. Miles has no present pur-
pose of going to China. It is stated in
this well-informed quarter that the re-
lations between Gen. Miles and Min
lister WI are friendly and personal, so
, that they frequently meet and exchange
, informa views. 1t is specifically stated
that Gen. Miles has not asked for serv-
ice in China, and that such a move
| would not be considered for a moment
under the present circumstances. At
! most, the army to be placed under for
eign commanders does not exceed
10000 men. and it is pointed out that
such command would be quite in
adequate for a lieutenant general 1t
is appreciated. however, that the situa-
tion may develop at any moment so
that large army will be required, in
which case Gen. Miles might determine
to take the field in person. For the
present he is exercising care. in the
preparations for getting the American
troops on the ground, the detail of
supplies. transportations, etc. The
diplomatic instructions of Gen. Chaffee,
| who is in Immediate command of the
|forces in China, are quite apart from
those of a military nature. ~,
