Another crisis has been reached in Chi
IA and this time il involves the mainten-
anee of harmonious relations between the
Powers. According to advices received at
the War Department from General Chat
fee, Count Won Waldersee, the command
er-in-chief of the allied forces. has in
sisted that he join with the American
troops in an expedition designed to clear
the Province of Chilli in which Pekin IS
situated Of Chinese soldiers.
General Chanee refused to join pending
instructions from his Government. and so
notified the War Department. The Presi-
dent and the State Department were in
formed of General Chafee's advices and a
conference this morning resulted in the
determination to notify General Chanee
not to participate in the expedition, but
TO instruct him and Minister Conger 10
endeavor TO secure its abandonment
It is probable also that the United States
Will seek to accomplish that object by ap-
peaIs direct TO the Powers. The Admins
tration officials regard the proposed ex-
petition as dangerous, iI-adyised, and
likely TO prevent the accomplishment of
the objects TO whi2h the Powers are
pledged
Il is feared in official circles here that
& renewal Of Lostiliues with Chinese
troops may bring about a general war. re
sulting in tie partition of the Empire. The
Government holds that it is inconsistent
for the Powers to expect the Chinese to
conduct negotiations for peace while the
troops Of The Powers are engaged in hos
tilIties with the Chinese Imperial forces
Altogether Count Won Waldersee's latest
move is regarded by officials here as the
worst possible thing that could have been
devised.
The State Department has advices from
Minister Conger, confirming the press
dispatches printed yesterday. that the Chi
nese Government had acquiesced in part
of the demands of the foreign ministers for
the execution Of certain digniteries. Mr..
Cobger, II is understood, indicates that
the ministers viii not be satisfied unless
