Washington, June 29.-The state de-
partment has received a dispatch from
Mr.. RockhiH at Pekin, saying that
Prince Chuan, brother of the emperor,
sails for Germany July 20 on a special
mission. He will return by way Of
America and is expected to reach this
'COuntry early in October. The special
mission is probably TO apologize to the
German government for the murder If
its minister at Pekfn and other fudi >
mites to its citizens there.
NThe trip Of Prince Chuan to Germany
and America viii be the first event of
that kind on record as it is an IN
broken tradition Of China that the
members of the imperial family shall
remain within the boundaries Of the
empire.

time that Prince Chuan would come to
this country, as the advices reaching
the Chinese legation here indicated
that he would return the other way.
For that reason the legation officials
have made no arrangement yet for the
entertainment of the distinguished
guest. but it is presumed that ne viii
