FIRST OBJECTIONS
Of Emperor Kwang Su to
Powers Demands.
Objects to Reducing Forces and, to
Permanent Legation Guards.
Prince Ching ard Earl Ii Return for Further
Conference.

Pekin, Dec. Eli Hung Chang and
Prince Ching, the Chinese peace com
missioners, have heard from the En-
peror, kWang Su. The court objects
strenuously to reducing the forces ana
to allowing permanent legation guards,
which it seems to think could be made
sufficiently large, at any time desired,
in order to menace the court itself.
After an hours conference between
Prince Ching and Ii Hung Chang. it
was decided to hold further commune
cation with the court before seeing the
ministers.
The British have increased their gar
rison at Yang Tsun by loo men, with
troops and three guns.
A flying column of 1900 cavalry will
scour the country between Tien Tsn
and Yang Tsung in obedience to Field
Marshal Won Waldersee's orders 10 be
on the alert, in view of the French
report of an engagement with $500
Chinese troops.
Col. Tullocks regiment will return
to destroy the towns he recently held.
This action is owing to the fact that it
has been discovered that Il number of
Boxers unquestionably made their
headquarters there.
The British authorities say they do
not expect serious trouble from the
Boxers mainly because they lack arms.
Fortunately, the Chinese government
is afraid to trust them with arms, as
it fears rebellion against the dynasty.
Otherwise the danger might have been
serious.
British soldiers have been found dead
on the outside of the Temple of
Heaven. The murders are said to
have been committed by the Chinese.
A detachment of the 9Th U. S. Cav
airy, 9th Infantry and 5th Artillery
Will leave tomorrow. to investigate
the reported burning by native Chris
tians by Boxers. reported by Rev. Mr.
Kelly, the Presbyterian missionary.
the American detachment will BE-
commanded by Lieut.. Col. Theodore j.
Wint of the 9Th Cavalry.

GERMANS STRkEGE ACTION.
4 Complete Change in Wa!da7scc's Altitude
Toward the Chinese.

London. Dec. 2S.-Thc proclamation
announcing the division of the country
around Pckin, Pao Ting Fu and Tien
Tsin into districts, placed scverally
under the control of the different mill
tary commanders, has been posted,
according to q dispatch to the Morning
Post from Pekin. dated Dec. rs. in the
German section only. IT recognizes
the Chinese military and civil COVER
nors, but makes no reference to Count
Won Waldersee.
"Germany's action" says the CORE
spondent, lis strange. She, formerly
so severe, now recognizes Chinese au-
thority." The largest districts, the dis
patch points out. have been allotted to
the British, German and French
troops.
1T is announced from Sian Flu"
says the Shanghai correspondent of
the Standard, that Emperor kwanS
Su has selected Gen. Ma Kung to
command the advanced body guard
