WANTED To KILL
BUT UNITED STATES BLOCKED
THE KA-SER'S PLANS.
HE IS PLANNING HIS REVENGE,
Tries to Shut United States Ont q,
Concert Of Powers-Bloody Plans
in China. :.

New York, Jan. 11.-A despatch Is the
Herald from London says:
Attention was drawn on Monday IL the
suspicious similarity in the tendency ex-
listing between the official views emana:-
ing from Vienna and the despaxchss
cabied by English correspondents in the
United States. Another striking inseance
had occurred within the last couple Of
days. AS usual the unanimity of News
is manifested in a sentiment of hostility
to the American government. ThiSstime
the state departments proposal to refer
certain points of the Chinese negotia
lions to a commission which would meet
at Washington or elsewhere, furnishes
the preteXt for attack.
The Teiegraph's Vienna correspondent
te!egraphs how the suggestion has
aroused the ire of Austrian diplomats
against the United States and the state
ment that the United States may be ask
ed to isave the concert OF powers in China
is Freely discussed. This unanimity lis
TOO pronounced to pass unnoticed. If the
matter were prObed to the bottom the
person who has inspired many state
ments would probably prove to be the
Kaiser, who as the mead of the triple
alliance and the only member of the
Anglo-German alliance whose hands are
unfettered. England being kept busy in
the Transvaal is in a position to dictate
with fair chance of being obeyed His
majesty is more concerned in shutting
the United States out of the concert than
any one, for it is the United States tina t
has thwarted his scheme of wholesale
slaughter which was to fill China with
terror Of the German empire. while the
other powers We're to be thrust into the
background as of no account
AS a matter Of fact, however. there is
no concert Of the powers now. Russia
has virtually withdrawn from it Of her
own free will, prefering to make an i'm
portant treaty with China.
According to the Daily Telegraph the
idea is contemplated Of leaving out the
United States. And France. the ally Of
Russia and united by the friendliest ties
to America. will scarcely work very
cordially with the stumps of a concert,
namely the triple alliance and England.
This simply means the concert is break
ing UP into companies of which tine
divisions are becoming more marked As
time goes on.
1t remains to be seen which win win
in the end. There is certainly a strong
place than with the triple alliance and
probability that Russia. France and tine
United States will be more successful In
dealing with China if definite split takes
England. Justice and humanity will
prove more powerful than oppression and
Indifference to the rights of nations In
that case the effort to shut off the United
States will probably change to a scramble
to come in.
