GERMANS RESIST GUARD
AMERICAN LEGATION TROOPS

CAUSE OF UNFRIENDLINEss
Emperor's Men Consider Americans
Attitude in Controlling the Gate
a Reflection on Their
Honesty.

PEKIN, May 26lThe United Sta 'es le-
cation guard has had its first trouble
Legation street is being repa red near the
legation and an American sentry was
placed at the point with orders to direct
people around by a side street. Every
body obeyed the request with the excep-
ton of the Germans, both officers and
soldiers, who have caused the American
sentries much trouble One of the Ge--
man officers drew his SWORD and charged
an American soldier who brought his
bayonet to charge" whereupon the
officer desisted. Subsequently a German
soldier charged past the sentry, w;.o
fired, hitting another German soldier
near the German legation, a quarter of
a mile off. This fortunately was only a
light flesh wound. The sentry has been
placed under Arrest and Mai Robertson
has instituted an investigation.
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE.
Schwartzensten, German minister, rep
resenting the civilians, and Count Won
Waldersee, representing the military, as
well as that of other high officials, has
been particularly friendly towards the
Americans, which makes all the more
pronounced the unfriendly feeling evincel
by majority of the German officers and
men. The unfriendliness is attribuated
to the American attitude In maintaining
control of the gate at the entrace to the
Forbidden City, which the Germans con-
slider reflection upon their national
honesty.
Today's meeting of the ministers of
the powers was devoted to closing up de-
tails of business independent of the in
demnity question, although the military
authorities of the various powers seem to
consider settlement in sight, as general
preparations are being made for the
evacuation of Pekin In the carly au .umn
Two German marine battalions have left
for Using Tau and British transports
have been ordered. Count Won Waldersee
expects to leave about the middle of
June.
Emperor Kwang Su has instructed
agents to prepare the palaces for occu-
patton by the court as soon as the troops
depart.
SITUATION NOT SERIOUS.
WASHINGTON, May 26.-Offcials here
attach no Importance to the disturbance
between Germans and American senti-
neIs at Pekin. Such affairs, while re-
grettable, it is said, are to be expected
especially where the difference in the
languages spoken might easily lead to
