to send its forces to points where dis
order actually existed, and where the
safety OF our officials and citizens was
endangered. Technically speaking. in
the absence of state OF war. this was
not proposition or armistice, but high
government officials said it amounted
10 practically an offer of armistice and
the refusal on the part of the United
States to make the arrangement.
NO NEWS FROM KEMPFF.
Secretary Long said at p. m. when
he left the Navy Department for the
day, that nothing had come from Adj
miral kempif On the casualties of the
hrst engagement of the American ma
rlne5 with the Chinese or on the ont
come OF the second engagement which
was TO nave occurred yesterday or Sat
urday. The only dispatch received by
the Secretary was a belated one from
kempr asking for Instructions as to
whether he Should cooperate with the
other naval forces in taking the Taku
forts. This must have been sent some
days ago as the Tuka forts were taken
the middle of last week Under the
circumstances there was no occasion
for answering the Admirals' request. as
he had already been advised of the gen
eral purpose of this government to act
concurrently with the other Powers in
the protection OF American interests
The State Department remained
throughout the day without informa-
ton from Minister Conger or any other
spnrce. The only dispatch reccv.d being
from Consul John Goodnow. at Shang-
had. saying he had heard nothing from
Pekin since the 14th inst. on the whole
the day was one of inactivity. and a
lack OF dehnite action on the main
pionts.

London. June &c (S:S5 a. m.)-The
British cruiser Terrible has arrived at
Che Foo from Taku with the latest
news. which is as follows:
Eight hundred Silks and 200 Welsh
Flsiiers have effecter a junction with
the American, German and Russian
forces. which had been cut off by the
Chinese about nine miles from Tien

1t is not clear what forces united. 1t
would seem that one relieving force
cut off. had been relieved by another.
AZ any rate. it is apparently certain
that the allies arrived in sufficient force
at Tien Tsin Sunday to attack the be-

HOPEFUL ENGLISH VIEWS.

London, June 26.-The Associated
Press learns that Lord Salisbury Is still
hopeful that the Chinese crisis will be
solved without war against that coun-
try rs n whole. In spite of the alarm
ing reports he inclines to the belief
that the Government of China In some
satisfactory form will shortly be able
TO re-osscrt itself. He does not mean
that he belittles the professions of the
various Viceroys who have given no
tice OF their Willingness to cooperate
with the united forces. Without COM
mtttirg himself to definite view of
the future, he appears averse to any
scheme of territorial indemnity which,
when order is restored, might be sug-
gested by the Powers who have suffer-
ed during the uprising.
ANGLO-AMERICANs COINCIDE.
The interview of the United States
Ambassador. Joseph II. Choate, with
Lord Salisbury Saturday. was due to
instructions received from Secretary
Hay. in which the Ambassador was no
tilted OF the friendly professions of the
various viceroys. and was instructed to
secure Lord Salisbury's views. Beyond
the casual conversation, MIR. Choate
had not mentioned the crises in the
far East until he received Secretary
Hays cable message. The Ambassa-
dor discovered the British Premlers
N'cNS NclG SNuStly uS frequently re-
ported in these dispatches. He MAIN
tanned the belief that the diplomats at
Pekin had not been massacred, and did
not believe they We're likely to be. lie
Is emnently satisfied with the action
already taken by the United States, and
expressed the same view as the cable
dispatches attribute to Secretary Hay.
NO POINT OF DIFFERENCE.
In short. the conference may be said
not to have ELECTED single point on
which Lord Salisbury differed from
the American attitude. and while he
expressed his determination to use
every endeavor to restore order in the
Pei-Ho valley and extricate the dlplo.
mats his estimate of the situation was
tirged with spirit Of hopefulness that
contrasted generally with the general
tone of the British press.
The Ambassador did not discuss the
eventual settlement and the likelihood
of partition of China, etc. and IL may
be reiterated that this phase OF the
situation has not yet been made the
tween any of the nations. Judging
from the account of what passed be-
tween Mr.. Choate and Lord Salisbury
the statement recently made to the AS
ISOLATED Press by the Foreign Office,
that Great Britain and the other ma
lions. so far as the Foreign Office knew
were combining all their energies and
deliberations solely to the present pre-
dicamont, is a sincere 6tatment of fact

Interior object in making capital out of
