Nothing Heard From the Orient, but
1t is Believed the Several Le-

cHAfFEE HAS NOT ARRIVED.
At Nngasaki-Replies Received at
State Deartment In Response to
Secretary Hays Dispatch.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. July 22-
With the exception of the brief dis
patch from Admiral Kempff. announc-
Ing that the Newark was going to Nag
asaki, there has been nothing received
in Washington to-day by the state or
navy departments regarding China.
This was also true Of the Chinese lega-
tlon, Minister WI saying nfter: dinner
tonight. that he had not q word from
his country to-day. The latter contin-
ues extremely optimistic OF the safety
OF the legations In Pekln and hopes that
the dispatch from Minister Conger re-
cslved here Friday is but the precursor
Of more detailed Information OF still
brighter character from the Chinese
capital. Many OF his callers to-day In
quired OF him about the report shat
China had asked the United States
government to exercise lis goods offices
for his country in the present crisis,
but he declined positively to make any
statement on the subject.
Second Division of Troops.
At the Japanese legation which has
been a source of much OF the news
which has recently come from China,
the officials were also without .advices
to-day. Nothing has been heard at the
legation of the report published In the
American newspapers that the; Japa-
nese government is about to dispatch q
second division OF troops from Yokoha-
ma for Chinese territory.
When Secretary Hay received the
Conger dispatch on Friday. he promptly
telegraphed the fact to our ambassa-
doris and ministers abroad. coupling 1t
with instructions to lay It before the re-
spective governments to which they
were accredited and to urge upon them
the necessity for cooperation for the
relief OF the foreigners In Pekin. EEL
Nothing Heard From ChafFee.
Several replies have been received at
the state department in response to the
secretary's dispatch, but they are with
held from publication for the present.
The officials here will abate none Of
the effort now making to obtain more
definite news and to push forward the
relief column on Its way to the Chinese
capital.
Up to a late hour tonight. nothing
had been heard from Major. General
Chaffee, who is to command the Ameri-
can forces In China and whose arrival
at Nagasaki Is hourly expected.
