WASHINGTON. Aug. ls.-The gov
ernment. now fully satisfied by advlces
that the international troops have en-
tered Pekin and that the legationers
are saved. Is calmly awaiting detailed
statements from It's own officers.
The president. Secretary Root, Act
ing Secretary Adee, Acting Secretary
u Navy Haokett ard other officials
were In conference during the after
noon. Il is understood that the con-
ference releted to the situation at
Shanghai
Word reached the navy department
during the afternoon that the United
States cruiser New Orleans had reach
ed Shanghai. at which point British
warships and transports are already In
force, while the French. Russians and
Germans are hurrylng their men to the
same destination. The American govern
ment so far has kept out OF the en-
tanglenent. and in view OF the reported
landing OF troops by some OF the pow
ers. !, was stated that the landing of
American troops had never been con-
templated.
Although the officials declined TO give
cut any specific information. It is un-
dcrstood generally that the government
was In possession OF word that the
landing OF British forces was begun
today and It was probable that this
would be followed by the landing Of
German and French forces AS these
several forces had, as the ostenslble
purpose OF their landing. the mainten-
anee Of peace and order. It is not as
sumed TO be likely that any disorder
can arise from the course pursued,
The general situation at Shanghai,
caused by the proposed landing Of the
British troops and the protests of Ger
many and France, continues to be
strained, although the authorities are
rather more hopeful of n satisfactory
adjustment than heretofore. The state
department does not treat the matter
as at all grave, and regards II rather

SHANGHAI, Aug. 1S.-The flight of
the dowager empress and the disap-
pearance Of the emperor Of China are
here regarded as Of much greater and
more lasting importance than the talk
ing Of Pekin. and the complications re-
sulting therefrom are speculatively dis
cussed by the press and in political
circles.
The overwhelming opinion is that,
since all the powers have agreed to
install n strong central government at
Pekin. II becomes necessary first to
destroy, or at least render harmless,
the fugitive government, which is re-
sponsible for the whole Chinese erup-
ton.
Therefore, 1t Is claimed, 1t is neces-
sary 10 follow and capture the fugi-
tives, This probably viii call for the
employment of large additional forces,
beside those which are now in China.
Surmises as to whether the United
States, Great Britain and Japan will
also share their influence or leave the
burden to Russia, France and, above
all, to Germany, fill the papers today.
The German government adheres to
the view that perfect harmony prevails

diate action in China.
