TO HEAR FROM THE COURT.
Ching and Ii Hung Chang Afflicted
With Convenient Illness.

I Pekin, Jan. Eli Hung Chang is bet
ter. Both he and Prince Ching baked
al signing the joint note when they con-
sdered the question until the court was
heard from again. alleging that the en-
peror's edict directing them to put Off
signing prevented them from using the
imperial seal until permission shall have
been received, which permission they
claim to expect hourly.
1t is known here among the Chinese
that the extreme anti-foreign element is
now in power and that the court favor
ties now advise the empress dowager
Of these the best known are Ii Chuan
Lin. abinet minister; Gen. Ma and Tung
F'uh Slang. Their views coincide per-
fectly with those of the southern vice
roys, particularly with those of Chan
Chi Chuan, who has threatened 20 re-
bel if the note i signed.
Ii Hung Chang and Prince Ching both
strongly urge the signing of the agree
ment. and they believe their counses
must prevail. They have pointed out.
In the strongest possible terms that the
very existence of China necessitates the
acceptance of the terms of the powers
and that failure on the part of China
to sign may mean the allies will. as soon
as the state of the weather makes such
a step feasible, send troops over the
country. and that parts of the empire
heretofore untouched will feel the scourge
of war.
The Germans have sent two companies
of infantry to the vicinity of the Ming
tcmbs, where trouble is reported.
