HIS Physician Says His Life Hangs by
Thread.


Pekin, March 10-Li Hung Chang is
again seriously i'll and his physician
says his life Hangs by thread. Prince
Ching and Earl Ii seem to think that
by spreading rumors of the courts un-
willingness to return to Pekin, unless
this or that thing is done, they can in
fluence the deliberations Of the minis
ters Of the powers AS matter Of
fact, according to reliable reports from
Sian Flu, the imperial personages are
extremely uncomfortable at Sian Flu,
where they live in the house of the gov
ernor, which is only small structure.
French missionaries who have just re-
turned here from Sian Fu believe the
empress dowager would bring the court
back to Pekin on the first offer of the
allies, having as basis the removal
of the troops, except the legation
guards.
The foreign ENJOYS will not hold
general meeting until Tuesday, owing
to the absence Of NJ Pichon (French
minister, at Pao Ting Flu. The United
States signal corps will be ready to
leave in a week, according to instruc-
tions. No transport has been announc-

his bed taking fire through cigar
