until We get snme definite undertaking from
the real rulers of the Chinese people. But
there must be no trusting to urratified, uH-
authorized terms from Ii Hung Chang.
The continued absence Of news from
Pel1in, the latest dispatches from the Chi
nese capital being now ten days old. is
aroU..ng some anxiety. but as the country

II is not suyprisir...s that couricrs are not
able TO reach Tien-fsin.

Ii Hung Chang, it is. stated. has told
dp!omatist that Russia. considering the mis-
sion 10 Peklp accomplished. has agreed to
request the Powers TO follow her example
and withdraw their Ministers and troops.
The Frerch Consul, however. declares II
such 4 request to FraLce is entirely i'm
probable.
A special dispatch from Berlin says it is
reported Germany has rejected the Russian
proposal for the Withdrawal of the troops
and has made a coUuter-propo5al that Rus
sla shall retire leaving the other Power;
to follow their own course.
1t Is announced that the Russian Embassy
has forwarded 20 the Foreign Office a cir
calar containing the proposal for the with

There is nothing to show that any agree

In the business district improved service
was given by the seckner Contracting
Company, which has 800 arc lamps in COM
mission. In the residence districts which
have been reached by the We,sbach Gem
pany the new gas lamps were received with
a sigh of relief.
Contracts for both changes were held up
SO long in the Municipal Assembly that
both OF the new contractors have found It
impossible TO cover the territory assigned to
them; and in the darkened districts there
was no end of complaint, and no little un-
easineSs
Comparison between the old and the new

the systems. employed but the general ver-
dict was in favcr of the new gas lamps.
They are set SO much closer together and 80
much nearer the earth that there appeared
to be few spots either in the street or on
the sidewalk where there was not enough
light to make walking safe and comfort
able.

In the district lighted by arc lamps COM

more modern in construction and of nearly
fifty per cent greater candle power.
The changes in each inst. nee were ac-

stared him in the face, until IL was sug-

the costs In order that the wedding might

necessary amount was subscribed.
Judge Wtslezenus, the lawyers for both
sides, several newspaper men and some
court officials donated the required amount.
Browner and Rosenblum are tailors.
Browner's relatives objected TO his marris se

Thursday evening Browrer went TO his

arose about some articles which Browners $
