THE CITY REPORT.

John w. Gordon attorney for City
Printer f. W. Cummins was asked
this morning if any steps were being
taken towards getting the annual city
report published, and he said that an
answer was being prepared to the 10.
junction but it could not tie filed until
after the city election, therefore the
reports could not he printed before
election unless Mayor Hersey with.
drew his injunction. Mayor Hersey and
his attorney we're interviewed this
morning and asked the same question
that was propounded to j. W.Gordon.
His Honor had nothing to say, but his
attorney said he knew OF no such
steps, aud.so we conclude that the
citizens are not to get the report be-
fore election, hence His Honor's very
charming message will be practically
all the light the voters are to get on
city affairs.

Washington, March l.
The following memorandum which
was handed to the Chinese minister

your information and communication
to the government to which you are
accredited
The preservation of the territorial
integrity of China having peen recog-
niZed by the powers now engaged
in joint negotiation concerning the
injuries recently inflicted upon their
ministers and nationals by certain
officials and subjects of the Chinese
empire, it is evidently advantageous
to China to continue the present in
ternational understanding upon this
subject. 1t would be, therefore. un-
wise and dangerous in the extreme
for China to make any arrangement
or to consider any proposition of
private nature involving the surren-
der of territory or financial obliga-
lions by convention with any partic-
ular power, and the government of
the United States, aiming solely at
the preservation of China from the
danger indicated and the conserva.

Assuming that the arrangement is
