Withdrawal of Troops.

Peking, June 1O.-All of the foreign
troops, with the exception of the le-
cation guards, are expected to with
draw ere the middle of September, the
only troops not already under orders
of withdrawal being the japanese,
whose government is sending reliefs.
1t is said, however, at the Japanese le-
cation that when Japan is absolutely
certain the other powers are evacuat-
ing, her own troops can be withdrawn
on two days notice. Gen. Voyron, the
French commander, has instructions
to leave one brigade for service in
China, and the French transports are
en- route. The British will have COM
pleted their departure by the end Of
September, ten transports making two
journeys to India.

the recommendations of the naval
board of awards concerning medals
of honor and letters of commenda-
ton to number of officers and men
of the navy and marine corps who
distinguished themselves during the
campaign in China. Secretary Longs
action did not go outside of the
China recommendations, and he will
not pass upon the Santiago medal un-
til the return of Assistant Secretary

The statement that Mrs. McKinley's

has come from the sick room since
the arrival of the distinguished pa
tient in Washington. The president
feels considerably encouraged. Sat

Patient Sits UP.

The reports from the sickroom up
to late hour were decidedly encour-

tion than for some time. Mrs. Nc
Kinley sat up for a few minutes Sun
day 1t was the second time she has
been able to do so in some time. Sur
geon General Sternberg remained
longer than usual Sunday evening.
Heretofore he has maintained a
sphynxlike silence about Mrs. Nc
Kinley's condition, but when he left
he said: Mrs. Mckinley is doing
very well now. There are no new de-

TO BE Taken to Canton.


Mrs. Mckinley will be taken to Can
ton whenever she is in condition to
bear the journey. Extensive improve
ments have been made at the McKin-
ley home in Canton, including the
building of a porte cochere and the
remodeling of portions of the house,
and it was planned last autumn that
she aud the president should go to
Canton about July l of this summer.
In case Mrs. Mckinley RECEIVERS, this
plan will be carried out, though it is
not expected she would be strong
enough to leave here the first of July,
even if improvement should continue
steadily. DR.. Rixey said he was un-
prepared to predict whether she
would be able to carry out these
plans. 1t is believed that consider
able benefit would accrue from re-
moval to her old home, especially as
it is cooler and more breezy there
than here

ARE GAINING HOPE. E.
Mrs. McKinley's Physicians Are
Encouraged.
SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT CONTINUES.
Extreme Gravity of the Case Is Not
Materially Changed, However
Full Statement of Her
Ailment Is Made.

Washington, June 10.-The slight
improvement in Mrs. McKinley's
health which manifested itself the
latter part of the week continues
and hope begins to be felt that she
may after all recover from the pres
ent attack. The improvement, how
ever, is SO slight as not to change ma
terially the extreme gravity of the
case The usual consultat ton of the
physicians was held Sunday morning
and at its close the following bulletin
was issued: Mrs. McKinley's ply
sicians report that she passed very
comfortable night and continues to
improve.
Still Apprehensiye.
The fact that Mrs. Mckinley has
more than held her own and that no
unfayorable turn has occurred is con-
sidered in every way encouraging,
but as this result is due partly to the
constant use of powerful medicines
the physicians fear the effect of re-
ducing the stimulants, and likewise
have to cope with the effect on her
system of the constant administra-
tion of the only means of prolonging
her life and making ultimate recoy-
cry at least possibility. These slim
ulants and the complaint from which
she suffered in California, which is
now under better control, have so
weakened her powers. of resistance
that apprehension is ever present
that sinking spell may occur sud
denly from which she cannot be raj
lied. DR.. Rlxley regularly makes
three visits each day, one in the
morning, when there is a consulta
tion of physicians, another in the
afternoon and third in the even
ing.
He called Sunday afternoon about
eight o'clock, and finding Mrs. McKin-
ley comfortable and progressing as
well as could be expected he and the
president went out for long drive,
lasting more than 1H hours, both
going to the sick room at once upon
returning. Subsequently the doctor
said that no material change had oc-
Cured since the morning bulletin.
Friends, official and personal, OF the
presidential family continue to show
their sympathy by personal inquiries
at the door and by leaving their
cards Even the members of the cab
met, as rule. merely leave their
cards, in order to avoid disturbing
the president. Mrs. Charles Emory
Smith, Secretary Long, Lieut.. Gen.
and Mrs. Miles, Commander Cowles,
of the navy, Assistant Secretary of
War Sanger and Miss Hitchcock were
among those who thus expressed
their sympathy during the day.
DR. Rixey, after his visit to the white
house Sunday evening, said on leaving
at 1O:3O o'clock: Mrs Mckinley is
slowly improving. She is resting very
comfortably now and is doing very
nicely

IS STILL UNSETTLED.
Chinese Indemnity Question May
Go to Hague Tribunal.
UNITED STATES URGES SUCH COURSE
An Imperial Edict Postpones Return
of the Court to Peking Until Sep
tember 1.-The Withdrawal
of the Troops.

Washington, June 1O-The United
States government has again appealed
to the powers to submit the present
issues at Peking over the indemnity
propositions to the arbitration of The
Hague tribunal. Mr.. Rockhill, who
has been watching for an opportunity,
cabfed Secretary Hay Friday night for
PERMISSION to make a proposition and
the secretary Saturday morning
cabled him authority to do so. 1t is
believed that the ministers at Peking
have become involved beyond extrica-
ton in the present issues and this
proposition may be the only way out.
Little Progress Made.
In resubmitting this proposal the
United States special commissioner,
Mr. Rockhill, has practically con-
fessed that little progress of i'm
portance has been made in reaching
solution of this vexatious feature
OF the Chinese negotiations. In fact,
it is positively known that instead of
the powers having determined upon
S3337 100000 as the amount of their
claims, as has all along been believed,
they are still far from an agreement
on this point. 1t is also stated that
no agreement has been reached re-
garding the method China shall be re-
quired to adopt to satisfy the claims
of the powers. The indemnity ques-
ton may therefore be regarded as be-
ing in the same stage it was when it's
consideration first began. It may be
that some of the powers propose to
submit larger claims than hitherto
reported.
Will Be Opposed
The United States will strenuously
oppose such action. Mr.. Rockhill de-
sired to avoid further breakers upon
which the negotiations might be
wrecked by securing the reference of
the whole question to The Hague.
Had the suggestion been adopted
when first advocated it is believed
in Washington that settlement of
the Chinese trouble would have been
reached before the present time. It
is feared here that Germany and 9TH
er powers which have large claims,
and desire continuance of present
conditions in China will not cease
their opposition to the adoption of
the amount of cash.

Mrs. McKinley's AiIment.


Washington, June 1O.-Mrs. McKin-
1ey's physicians were in consultation
about two hours Saturday and sub
sequently a very complete statement
of the true character of the illness
from which she has been suffering
was issued. Such a statement has
been promised from time. to time,
and while in San Francisco it was
said that the president desired "a
fuller announcement of the nature
of Mrs. McKinley's illness given to
the public. But, for one reason or
another. it has been withheld up to
the present time. The bulletin is as
follows:
Mrs. McKinley's illness has beeen a
blood infection resulting from periostitis
of the index finger Ozone felon). which
began in Los Angeles and which was
promptly treated by incision. The sub
sequent condition of exhaustion was due
to the same blood Infection asseverated
