ORDERED TO WITHDRAW
TROOPS FROM CHINA
United States Soldiers Will No Longer Menace the
Imperial Court at Pekin.
Demands of Russia Regarding Manchura Cause COnsna
ton Among Chinese.

Washington, March carrying out
the policy inaugurated by the state de-
partment when it changed its military
force in China into a legation guard,
the war department has sent orders to
General Chaffee TO still further reduce
his force. The general has now under
his command about 1,SeO men, COM
posed of troops 1, K. L and NJ, Sixth
cavalry; battery F, Fifth artillery. and
the Ninth infantry. Although nomin-
ally a legation guard, General Chaffee'
force is of rather formidable offensive
quantity, and not DESTROYS Of retaining
an unnecessary menace to the Chinese
court, and in order to hold out induce
mentS for its early return to Pekin,
the United States government some
time ago determined upon further
reduction of the American force, and
the orders went forward.
Considerable discretion was left to
General Chaffee in the selection of the
troops to remain, and it is assumed at
the department that the Pekin dis
patches announcing that these consist
of two companies of the Ninth infant
ry, under Major Robertson, is correct.
If the other powers represented at Pc
kin can be induced to follow this policy,
it is hoped that a long step will have
been effected toward the restoration of
normal conditions at Pel1in-
1t is said at the war department that
the arrangements have not yet been
made for bringing away the troops from
Pekin, and it is believed that this can
not be done before the ice clears out of
the Pei river, which is usually some
time in the latter part of March. The
troops are to go to Manila, thereby
making good the losses which General
MacArthur's command will sustain
through the withdrawal of the vOlun-
teers, who are coming home to be mus
tered out 1t is understood at the war
department that General Chaffee, who
will leave Pelxin with these troops, is
to relieve General Macarthur of the

LOSS WAS ABOUT 100000
PRISONERS ALL TRACTIBLE AND
NO ATTEMPTS TO ESCAPE.

Lincoln. Neb., March 1.-The Ne
braSka state penitentiaTy is in ruins
and one convict, George PheUger, is
dead. Fire. which started at midnight
destroyed the cell house and the en-
tire main building, and the loss will
probably exceed $20O, GEO. The building
was practically new. The only build
ing saved was the east wing, occupied
by the warden the chapel and a small
reserve cell room. The prisoners were
removed under extra guard without
difficulty. Lieutenant Governor Saw
age, acting governor in the absence Of
Governor Dietrich, arranged 20 have
sufficient number Of the national guard
sent to the penitentiary to prevent any
escape
The fire was discovered by Mrs.
Davis, wife of the warden, who de-
tected the smell of smoke. The alarm
was Immediately given, cOnvicts,
guards and employees aroused and an
appeal telephoIfed the Lincoln fire de-
partment for help. The convicts were
ordered to clOthe themselves, and IN
their prison garb were marshaled into
the huge court yard, where two hours
later they were still standing in a long
double line to the number of nearly
800, under the espionage of score of
armed guards patrolling on the top OF
the wall surrounding the court yard.
The warden and his immediate aides
made quick work of removing the
books. records and papers of the in
stitution to a place of safety. Nothing
else of value was saved from the burn
ing structures.
The room where the fire originated
was a kitchen for the warden's apart
ments 1t was located in the upper
story of the main building, almost d.
rectly over the Office and near the cell
house. running down from the west end
of the yard.
Flames Spread Rapidly.
From the kitchen the flames spread
in all directions -~adually eating their
way westward through the new cell
house and eastward through the main
building The Lincoln fire department
responded with hose carts and steam
ers, and two streams from the pond
were soon playing on the flames, with
the effect, however. of only temporarily
checking their spread
After it was seen that the major pOr-
ton of the building was doomed to
destruction, all efforts were concentrat-
ed on the east end of the building,
which the firemen succeeded in saving.
