trait in this sketch, Mrs. Williams OF
Englishtown, Nj, has been entirely
cured OF such illness and misery BY
Lydia E. Pinkhan's Vegetable CON-

AGREES TO DECLARATIONS.
United States Yields to Requests of
Powers.


New York. Jan ga dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says:
While vigorously opposing the execu-
ton of PRINCE TUan and General Flu
HsldnE, the United states has agreed to
the decapitation of four ring leaders in
the Chinese Outrages OF last summer.
Two or these are Prince Chwdng. a dep
uty commissioner in chief of The Boxers,
and Au Hsien, who was removed BY the
empress dOwager from the post of gov
ernOr Of Shan 81.
II is understood that before agreeing to
the execution OF the four OfuCIals the
authorities aSCeTtained that the Chinese
government would be able to comply with
such a demand. The case OF General
Iung Flu HSfang is different. Surrounded
by an arHtN devoted to him, he would re
sist any attempt to execute him and civil
position of Prince TUan also makes de-
capitatiOn impossible in his case.
In aCQuieScIng in the execution of the
minor officials. the United States Yields
to the wishes of Great Britain and Ger
many, with whom Russia and Japan has
agreed.
1t is learned that the foreign ministers
IN fekin nave appointed a commission

nicipai officers guilty of aiding the Boxer

as materials employed in their manufaC-

Renewed assurances have been given to
the authorities that Russia has not made
any separate arrangement with China
regarding Manchuria- and that She does
not contemplate pursuing policy dif-
terent from that enunciated in her note
