Germany's intentions Count Won Bue-
lows note said
"Our aim is the restoration of security
for persons and property, freedom of ac-
ton for German subjects in China, and
rescue of foreigners beleaguered in Pell-
in, the re-establishment of security and
regular conditions under a proper organ
/ lied Chinese government, and reparation
and satisfaction for the outrages COM
mitted. We desire no partition of China
and seek no special advantages. The i'm
perial government is imbued with the
conviction that the maintenance of the
agreement between the powers is a pri-
mary condition for the restoration Of
peace and order in China
There is reason for believing that
Germany holds today that the foregoing
declaration is as effective as when it
was first enunciated and that any pres
ent consideration of Germany's purposes
must be viewed in the light of the fore
going specific declaration of policy. For
that reason the declaration, we desire no
PARTON of China, and seek no special ad-
vantages is said to clear away the sus-
picion that Germany has a far reaching
purpose of territorial acquisition in Chi
ma.
Count Won Bueiow's not further point
ed out the scope of Germany's military
measures in China, stating that "they
will enable us to participate in the
military action in a manner correspond
ing with Germany's political Importance.
By the recent events in China the sue
cessful mis- operations there; the
hourishing German trade and economical
enterprises are menaced. Our moral and
material interests we must protect"
Count Won Waldersee's appointment
followed and is said to have been quite
within the foregoing general declaration
of policy.
ITALY'S ATTITUDE.
The attitude of Italy has also been de-
fined in a statement by Marquis Wis
conte Venosta, minister Of foreign af-
fairs, as follows:
The cabinet has no present intentions
toward expansio. or intrigue in China
Its program is to maintain perfect ac-
cord between Italy and the other powers.
A 1eet and some troops represent the
of Italy in the common
task. We cannot leave entirely to others
the protection Of our national rights, nor
are we disinterested in the work of mu-
tual interests which the wopers are seek
ing to carry on in China"
1t is said that the course of Austria
will be practically identical to that CT
Germany, owing to the close relations
between Berlin and Vienna on all ques-
tions of international policies

BOERS HOLD THE GUNS.

TIE Beers are still holding the can
non which they captured from Colpne
Broadwood in the Orange Free State
en- Saturday. The latest dispatches
state that the capture occurred at
Borndrift, on Mealie tpruit, or creek,
about 20 miles cast of the Free Safe
capital, and that the Beers, though
heavily attacked by the British, are
still holding the position there, though
it is rumered that they have begun to
retire. 1t turns out that seven guns
In all were captured from the British,
whose loss in men was $50. OF these
200 are prisoners.
1t is believed in London that tie
Beers have been making a stand n
Mealie Spruit to allow time for the re :
moval of the guns and prisoners. A
decidedly uneasy feeling prevails in
the British capital. Dispatches from
London state that it is now rel azed
the British have been overconfiient
that the war is fer from ended and
that the Bosrs ale by no means dis.
heal tened. SO far in the war the
Beers have captured % cannon and
British but fe,eD. This is the heaviest
loss of guns in any period Of Brlta IS
military history since 1888.
A British dispatch from BIshman
kop, near the scene of the amb Ssh says
the Beers were commando by "Reich-
man, German-American." Captain
Carl Reichmann is the American
military attaehe with The Beers, but
perhaps the dispatch does not refer to
hi u.
The number OF Beers engaged is not
known. 1t is put in some dispatches
at from 5000 to 10000, but the belief
in London is that it does not amount
to more than hall that nunber.
The Beers have cut one o. Lord

REPUBLICAN PERPLEXITI rs.
Washington Post.)

It ia now evident to the whole coun
Try thai the perplexities and embar-
easements cf the Republican party arc
multiplying with each succeeding day
Every time the sun rises it finds tie
Republican predlctment a Ii tie bit
more unfortunate. The compiled
tons steadily increase; tie schism
within the party becomes more bitter;
the chasm between the opposing sec
items as steadily widens and deepens'
1t were the widest Of folly for the De-
mocracy to step in at sush time ard
furnish their antagonists with means
Of escape from the dilemma and SO
enable them to shift from the attitude
of confused and laundering defense to
that of an even stupid aggressivenes'.
At present the Republican party is in
extremis. 1t cannot excuse its oan
acts. 1t is divided against itself. Just
what the Philadelphia Convention can
declare without exciting the ridicu'e
and opprobrium of the country only an
inspired wizard could say at this time.
For the Democrats to intrude them
selves upon such a situation and 50
suggest to the Republicans on issue
upon which they could recover some
semblance of dignity and conference
would be little, if anything, short of
.diotic.
