Washington, Sept 15.-Even more
important than the departure Of Earl
Ii Hung Chang was the information
conveyed by Minister WI to the state
department Friday that an imperial
decree named Yung Lu to Join with
Prince Ching and Ii Hung Chang as
a commission to negotiate peace
Yung Lu is the commander Of the
northern army in China and during
the recent troubles he was identified
with the anti-fOreign sentiment. His
appointment is not likely to be well
received by the powers for, beside his
recent performances, he is identified
with the most obstructive element in
China.

by steamer BreekOnshire, the Chi

Washington, Sept. 19.-The Russian
charge d'afaires called at the state
department and gave assurances to
the government officials that there
had been no change in the attitude
Of his government, and that the Rus
sian troops had been given instruc-
tons to withdraw from the Chinese
capital. Mr.. Griggs, attorney gen
eral Of the United States, the only
member Of the cabinet In the city,
went to the war room In the white
house and had a long talk with pres
ldenG mckinley at canton. In con-
sequence Of this conference the Rus
sian representative was informed
that for the present the United
States would retain its troops at the
Chinese capital and await further de-
velOpments. The president felt that
in the present condition Of affairs
without any recognized authority or
semblance Of a government in China
the time was not OppOrtune for with
drawing from the Chinese capital.
