gestion prevailed that it would DO well
TO wait and see II the governor would
submit some subjects Of general legisla-
ton. in which event there would be
something for surplus clerks TO do.
The governor says very emphatically
10 all visitors that he will not consider
the submission Of any additional matters
until the appropriation bill has been
passed Then he may think about 10.
He will not consent 70 submit the judi
cial district bill at this time. That
means that the house will nave nothing
but tho appropriation bill to work on
for the next two weeks. but no one
takes the proposition to reduce the cler-
ical forces seriously.

legislature urging economy. The gov.
errors reason was that drouth would
affect the collection Of taxos.
The appropriation bill introduced in
the house. carries an appropriation Of

some Of his troops yesterday on the
transport Sumner from Taku. The

Chinese question now hinges on a sat

He does not expect definite develop

require much time. patience and for
bearance to settle.
Meantime lawlessness Is spreading
in the province, as no imperial troops
are allowed there. After the evacua-
tion by the allies the return of normal
conditions will be gradual. Until then
China will have no opportunity to
prove her sincerity. II is manifestly
impossible for her to do so before nor
NAL conditions are re-established.
Allies Have Lost All Gains.
General Chaffee said he believed that
the allies had lost all their gains by
their protraeted stay. They had for
fe!ted every right to reproach the Chi

ness. unnecessary expeditions, which
had Unframed the natives, and their in
sistance upon executions. all Of which

proved by her moderation.
In conclusion General Chaffee said
that the Chinese problem was not yet
