says it is a wise step for China to take,

counsel in their domestic policy, they
are unlearned in regard to dealings
with foreign countries.

to lead to hostilities, but instead has
decided to allow the issue to go before
the commission, which has for several
years been engaged in the delimitation

reports that while the Argentine min

comment. The excuse of sickness is
nowhere entertained seriously. Taken
IN conjunction with the sudden deten-
ton in Shanghai of the expiatory mis-
sion to Japan, it is believed to indi-
cate fresh complications with refer
ence to the signing of the protocol in
Peking. The German papers, which
comment in good way, suggest that
the delay of Prince Chun is due to an
lntlmation from Emperor William as
TO certain matters of ceremony and
etiquette with which Prince Chun is
unable or unwilling to comply without
permission from the Chinese court.
1t is said that at least 10 days will
elapse before Prince Chun's expiatory

WILL REPRESENT SAMPSON. .

r Washington, Aug. 2S.-It is under
stood that Admiral Sampson is to be
represented before the Schley court
of inquiry by, counsel The navy de-
partment officials say they have no Of.
fetal knowledge on the subject and
point to the fact the court of inquiry
is the only body authorized to admit
or dehAs counsel in such cases. It
may in its pleasure deny the person
under investigations the privilege Of
having counsel present before the
court or. on the other hand, lit may
go. the, length of permitting persons
in secondary interest the privilege Of
employing counsel before the court.
So the officials say they have no
knowledge, officially, Of the retention
OF counsel by Admiral Sampson, but
privately it is admitted that he ex.
poets to be so represented. It was
learned that Mr.. W. Slayton of the
law firm of Slayton & Chambers Of
New York was expected at the navy
department., and it is supposed that
his purpose is to consult the records
Of the department in the interest of
Admiral Sampson. Mr.. Slayton is
graduate of the naval academy, who,
though coming out at the head of his
class, elected to join the marine corps.
He was detailed to duty in the Office

later resigned to practice law.

Atlanta, Ga.,. Aug. 2S.-Bishop Tur.
ner of the African Methodist church
said in an interview with regard to the
Jest manner of preventing the crime
of assault among negroes:
Il am as much convinced as ever
that African emigration would be best
for the negro and best for the white
man. There is an irresistible conflict
between whites and blacks that moth
ing but separation can reconcile and
put an end to.
'"Our children are generated and
nurtured under a malignant and mis-
anthropic excitement that will wreck
this country and make our civilization
a hiss and byWord. And if it is a
fact that the negro will not let white
women alone, then white men owe
it to their manhood and honesty to
get rid of him; and if they will open
up a highway to Africa millions of the
black race will go. Rather than shed
so much blood, and possibly some in
nocent blood, you had better enact
laws to brand these fools and scoun-
drels, and crop their ears and Danish
them to Africa. If the country will
turn over all these criminals that they
are burning, hanging and shooting,
to me and brand their cheeks and
carry them to Africa I will give the
world another Rome, or establish a
country like Australia, which was
founded and built up by English cut
