whether President Lincoln was to be

wipe out slavery, and as the democrat
ic party is now advocating that Amer
ican troops be- withdrawn from the
Philippines and the insurgent be given
control of the country, so then they

UNITED STATES LEADS YET.
Clever Diplomacy Leaves The
Reins In Washington.
WINTER PREPARATIONS GO ON.

Washington, Sept. 3.-The Russian
note relative to the withdrawal Of
Russia from China and the United
States response thereto were made
public by the state department, after
the cabinet had fully considered the
expediency of so doing. The CORE
spondence is unique in the history of
diplomatic exchange. 1t may be said
to illustrate clever move by which
the United States government again
has assumed the lead in prescribing
the policy of the powers respecting the
Chinese trouble.
Respecting our own attitude, it APP
pears that, while believing the best
course to pursue is to remain in Pekin,
our government is still willing to with
draw. Perhaps this means that if
there is to be separate action by the
powers in China, the United States
proposes to deal with the situation
with a free hand.
1t may be noted, in connection with
our withdrawal statement, that,
whereas Russia proposed to withdraw
from China, our offer is to withdraw
only from Pekin. A significant fact in
this connection is that General Chaffee,
who is well advised of the situation,
having several days ago been directed
to prepare for just such an emergency
as that precipitated by the Russian
action, continues his preparations for
wintering the Americans troops in
China. Indeed, unless the men are
afioat and out of the Pei-Ho within the
next six weeks they are likely to re-
main in China perforce, being ice
bound. General Chaffee was further
advised of the developments in the
situation, compendious statement of
the points in the Russo American cor
respondence being cabled to him for
his guidance. AS bearing further on
the prospects of the future, it may be
noted that the war department Off
Gals state that the government has
not considered the question of the
| evacuation of China.
