A Washington Oct. $ dispatch says
the effort To induce the Chinese impc.
rial court tn return to i'ckin has failc q
after a weeks persistent effort on the
part of the powers. News t, that
effect was brought to the state depart
ment today by the Chinese minister,
who received it via st. Petersburg
from Niceroys Lui Gun Nih aud Chang
Chih Tung, under date of October {.
Minister WI received the mcssarc last
night, IL was rs follows:
"The departure of their imperial
majcstics for Shensi Op]rovenccl was
due To distressing conditions at Tai
fuen Flu. There is n scarcity Of food

ton with their majrstics may, there.
fore, be carried on, thus court and of.
fetal business may b. transacted more
expeditiously by their presence in
Shensi rather than in Shansi. The
reasons for the temporary postpone
ment of their maicstics' return ~ Pc
Kin are the presence Of the allied forces
the, on account Of which solicitous
fear is doubtless entertained. besides
"a dread of the outbreak of epidemic
diseases, which usually follow afte r
great disturbances destruction of prop
erty and military operations. II Is
hoped that the powers will be consid-
crate In their judgment in this mat
ter"
The important feature of the mes
sage is the confession that the court
Is restrained by fear OF the allied
forces from returning to Pckin. The
movement takes the emperor and en-
press dowager about 900 miles farther
away from Pekin, though, according
to the statements contained In the
message, by reason of direct telegraph
communication with Shanghai, the
court practically will be nearer for
purposes Of negotiations with the out
side world than IL was at Tai Yuen.
Minister WI has been informed also
that Viceroy Yu of the province just
vacated by the court has been i'm
peached because Of his anti-foreign
tendencies which is the first step to-
ward his degradation.
The action of the imperial court has
an unfavorable effect in Berlin.

was that paragraph in the article which
