THAT CHINESE NARRATIVE.
Washington People Get an Expression
from the Chinese SIInistef.

Nhlutse
Washington. July I3.-The good i'm
preston made by the edict of the Chi
ncSe government given ont by Minis
ter WI threatened to be Offset TO
some extent Yesterday by the reports
from London stating that Prince Tuan
was the real author Of this edict. and
that some of its most forcihle anti
foreign language was omitted from the
version given out here. But at the Chi
nesc legation these intimations from
London are dismissed aS groundleSs.
The dispatch was received here in Chi
nese-that is. in the numerals by
which the Chinese government trans
mitS Its official code messages. This in
itself, il il said. indicates that it came
with tn" sanction of those in imperial
authority. as the official code is not
known outside of this limited circle.
Following an invariable custom in
time OF disorder the war officer at
Peking was entrusted with furnishing
the runners TO carry the message 10
the imperial treasurer OF Chilli. who
in turn got it To Shanghai. From that
point il was sent direct TO the various
ministers the world over. coming To
Washington direct instead Of 10y the
usual route of London. Under the
foregoing circumstances. the Chinese
officials regard il as established beyond
the slightest question that the edict
is a bona fide expression from the
imperial government Of China. and
moreover that it is complete as given
ont here.
Berlin, July 13.-Official circles here
attach little importance to the com
municltion of the Chinese minister at
Washington. At best il is interpreted
rs an attempt 10 gloss over the re-
cent outrageous deeds. \ number of
statements made in it are declared TO
he notoriOusly false, such as, for in
stance, the representations regarding
Baron von Ketteler'S death and the
Taku seizure. The main objection
urged here is that nobody knows
whose the government which the state
nent repreSentS-whether the govern
ment of the dowager empress and
kwanG Hsu. or that of Prince Tuan.
The document bears date Of June 81,
and nobody knows what government.
Il any has since succeeded.

Peoria, Ills, July 13.-The Epworth
IeaguerS of Illinois yesterday morning
decided on Mount Carmel as the place
of meeting of the next state cOnven-
ton, to be held in 1902. They also or
dered the nominating committee to
bring in the names of two candidates
for each of the league offices. This in
terferes with the plan of the commit
tee to secure the election of Thomas s.
Marshall, mayor of Salem. as president
of the union. The convention morning
session was given over to Il discussion
of junior and Christian citizenship
work and in the afternoon the dele
gates enjoyed a steamboat ride up the
Illinois river. The feature of the pro
gramme last evening was 4 lecture by
Robert MacIntyre.
Words of Praise for Rulers.
At the convention Wednesday night
DIR. w. +. Wilson, of Hamilton, Ont.
spoke on the Citizen and the Church"
He referred to Gladstone and Lincoln
as the typical representatives of the
two great nations, and paid high
compliment to President Mckinley,
the ''stalwart. pure, Christian presi-
dent, who placed one hand on the
throne of God and asked the Father to
lead him." Then he referred TO the
Queen of England in the same compli-
mentary strain. Referring to the Spir-
il of the hour he said the United States
could not if she would take one back
ward step and let the nations pass on.
Furthermore he said the United States
would not if she cOuld relinquish an
island over which flies the stars and
stripes and whose soil rests the bodies
of her noble dead.

son was loudly cheered. His mention
of the name of Mckinley was the sig
nal for an outbreak, the vast audience
cheering and waving their hats. \
similar demonstration occurred when
he referred to the Queen. Fully 1,6O0

Republican Side Show Not to MaterIalize
This Year.
Washington, July l3.-"The gold
democrats will not put ticket in the
field this year" said w. w. Bynum,
of Indiana, chairman of the gold
dem ocratic executive committee in
1896. I'VE can not get eur electors
on the official ballot in New York be-
cause no votes were cast for the party
candidate for governor in S9S, and
the state law requires that n
certain number OF votes shall
have been cast for state officers in
the preceding election before the
nominees of any party can go on the
official ballot in the pending contest.
Our party organization in New York
was abandoned two years ago, MEM
bers of our party voting other tick
cts.
The only way we can have our
candidates for electors put on the
official ballot is by petition of GER
tain mum Der of voters in each county,
au exceedingly difficult thing to do in
the present case, as the members of
the gold democratic party have affili-
ated themselves with one or the other
of the old parties on the new issues.
New York is the one state where our
ticket might do the republicans some
good and if we can not get it on the
official ballot there is little use of
nominating 4 national ticket. The
new Australian ballot laws in other
states also operate against iudePend-
ent movements

Chicago, July 1S.-The injunction
suit begun by the Inter-Ocean Pub
fishing company against the Associ-
ated Press, of New York, to prohibit
the use of the name of Associated
Press" is now pending on an appeal
before the United States court OF ap-
peals for the seventh district. The
suit was filed originally in the circuit
court of Illinois, but was removed by
the defendant to the United States
circuit court. where an order was is
sued June 80 modifying the original
order of the state court so as to leave
the defendant restrained only from
procuring cancellation of any con-

Inter Ocean filed an appeal from this
order, which was granted, thus send
