Washington. Jan. f0-SOme valuable help
for the -. Louis pneumatic tube service
was secured to-day by representative
Joy. When the House met he at cnce caIIeI
on Chairman Loud of the Post Office Com
mittee and urged him to favor the pro-
vision for establishing pneumatic service
in ST. Louis
Chairman Loud is known TO be opposed
10 the extension of this service TO new
points. but after n somewhat extended con-
ference between him and Mr.. Joy.5in which
tho latter explained fully the special needs
for its extension to st. Loui in view OF
tho approaching Worlds Fair. Mr.. Loud
promised that he woud support n reason
able appropriation for Its establishment
there. He suggested that Mr.. Joy should
confer also with Mr.. Cowherd OF Missouri,
who IS A member Of the committee. and ask
him TO watch this Item carefully and see
that It receives SPECIAL consideration by the
House.
Mr.. Loud promised TO support its passage
personally. He said that he would have
the matter put in such shape that the
claims of St. Louis would b. certain to
receive special consideration. He promised
that the estimate of the Postmaster Cen
eral for 10000 would he increased BY the
House Committed TO s"p'.vcl. ara alctd
that he would have the amendment so
drawn that this amount would be appor-
toned specifically to the cities TO receive
its benefits and not left in a lumo-sum to
be assigned in the discretion OF the Post
Office Department. This would place a
specific sum for the use Of st. Louis. and It
could not be diverted to another point
Mr.. Joy feels much gratihed az the en-
couragement received from Chairman Loud
and considers II an important advantage
gained for st. Louis. 1t is evidence also Of
the appreciation by members that the
great exposition In St. Louis Is assured.
Apparently the leaders realize that every
thing should be done to place the city in
a creditable condition before II is called
upon to entertain the visitors OF the word.

INTERVIEW WITH EARL Ii.
Says the Chinese Are Grateful to
Americans.

New York, Jan. 29.-A dispatch from Pc
kin says:
Viceroy Ii Hung Chang in an interview
said; "We are indeed grateful to the Am
erican government for the gradual evacua-
ton OF Pechi-li. The quicker it is done the
better. 1t will save the situation, which
has been growing worse.
1--WE have eonformed to the demands OF
the powers as far as we can. Now we need
assistance in the execution of details.
These armed expeditions are great men-
ace. l never breathe, scarcely, while one is
out.
.'The gradual evacuation which the
American government so opportunely pro.
poses is the solution OF all our troubles.
When it begins the commercial and all the
other dealings will be resumed and the
anxieties which have oppressed us will
vanish.
There is not the slightest design on the
part of China TO do less than we have
agreed to do, but we ask the powers not to
insist upon the impossible, but help us in
consideration of our intelligent appreciation
of the situation to execute the demands
to which, in order to avoid war, we have
to accede
''There is not one word of truth in the
story that Chinese troops are pouring into
the province of Pe-chi-li. There is not
single soldier within the district mapped
out by Marshal Won Waldersee as being un-
der foreign jurisdiction. Outside these lin.
its we are collecting few hundred soldiers
to take over police duties when the for.
|eigners leave. That is all.
THE questions of punishment of the non
importation of arms and of the indemnities
must be developed from the preliminary
treaties, not only with consideration OF
what is wanted, but with comprehension as
to what China can do.

be rude, as long as Count Won Waldersee,

him to leavef"
In conclusion the viceroy, who, despite
his recent illness, is looking well and active,
said: There is no truth in the London
report of the conclusion OF Russo. Chinese
convention regarding Manchuria."
AdSices From Pekin.
Washington, Jan. 2s.-The most recent
advices received by the state department by
he agent there are that the negotiations are
proceeding slowly, but they do not by any
means discourage the hope Of ultimate
agreement.
In view of the recent publications touch.
ing the insistence OF the ministers at Pelxin
upon the imposition of the death penalty
upon the Chinese concerned in the Boxer
uprising, this statement is made by author
ity;
"The reports which come from Pekin rep.
