growing expectation at the state depar,-
ment that news OF the utmost Importance
may be forthcoming at any moment from
Peking. Nothing was received today. The
few cablegrams received referred to minor
matters and did not touch at all upon
conditions in tho Chinese capital. II Is
believed that the basis for this expccta-
tion is the knowledge on the part OF tho
officials that certain machinery hereto-
fore set In motion may result IN thu open-
ing up OF communication through some
secret but reliable channels II u known
that second EFFORT has been made by
our government TO get another message
from Mr. Conger and that nearly all OF
the powers also have rescrted To private
vate agencies in their own interests with
a like object.

The fact has just been developed that
one OF the last nets or the late COL Lis
cum before his death AZ Tfentsin WAS to
undertake. to send dispatch 70 Pckins.
Gen. Dorwood, the British commanding
ofiieer al Tsentsin. also sent out two mcs-
mengers ana II Is believed the Japanese
aid the same. up to date not one OF those
messengers hna returned to Ticntsin. nor
has there been single word heard from
any OF them. This fact. however, has not
caused the abandonment OF hone. and
this is true in particular Of the messages
expected from Minister r'onger.

Minister WI IL perhaps the ha.is for
this hope on our part and he mninsains
an unshaken confidence IN his original
assertion that the news. when II does
come. will show that the iewationers are
alive. The message reported to have
come through missionary Wilder. at cne-
foo, Is regarded as most promising. Min-
