The necessity for heavy reinforcements
continues. Notwithstanding the pretense of
the Chinese government. as expressed in
the statement issued yesterday through
Minister WI. that ii is trying to restore
peace and holds the foreigners to blame.
The fact that there has been no direct word
from Fekin as to the safety of the foreign
Crs there since June 80 is suspicious cir
cumstance. tending to create the belief that
the government. even if triumphant at last
over the usurper. is playing false and try

The British Indian troops are on their way

ready landed there and others are about
to be dispatched. German forces are in
preparation. 1t may be two three weeks
before the combined armies reach total

lives of many of the foreigners there may
be saved.
