MA TUNG APPOINTED.
Former Boxer Leader is Honored by
 Chinese Government.

Pehin. Nov. 5.-Na Tung, former Boxer leader, has been appointed to the Chinese foreign office by an edict received today. He recently returned from Japan where he went as special envoy to apologize and express condolences for the murder of anese legation at Pekin, shortly before the legations were besieged. This ap- pointment is considered a test of the at- titude of the Chinese Ministers toward the restoration of the Boxers to imperial fa- vor.
 Japanese influence supported Ma Tung. a fact which contribute further evidence of Japan's recent policy of cooperation with China. Not long ago Japan sounded the powers regarding the propriety of an- other protest against the Manchurian con- vention between Russia and China and was disappointed by lack of interest in the question on the part or the United States and Great Britain.
