DEADLOCK

Peking. Feb. 15-The Chinese peace plenpO-
tentiaries have replied to the latest telegram
from the Imperial Court that the decision of the
foreign ENJOYS with respect TO the punishment
of the guilty is irrevocable. although the sent
ence upon General Tung Flu Hsiang be
pended until such time il comes within the
power of the Court to place him in restraint
when his death will be demanded
Although there have been official communi-
cations on the subject between the ENJOYS and
the Chinese plenipOtentiaries. there have been
long unofficial consultations between the latter
and NJ. De Giers and Sir Ernest Satow, the
Russian and British Ministers.
definite reply from the Court is not expected
before the end of the New Year celebrations. at
least ten days off. but the ENJOYS believe that
the Court must yield.
Count Won Waldersee has issued a formal de-
nial Of the published statement that the Ger
man troops are leaving China. He says he could
not move one soldier without instructions from
Berlin. and that these have not been received.
Tien-Tsin. Feb. 15-It is asserted here that the
real reason for the deadlock in Peking is diff

HERR BEBEEs BITTER SPEECH.
THE SOCIALIST LEADER ATTACKS THE
GERMAN ACTION IN CHINA.


Berlin. Feb 15-During the debate on the
third reading Of the China bin in the Reichstag
to-day the Minister Of War General Won Goss-
ler replying 10 Herr Bebel's attacks on the CON
duct Of the troops in China, and Field Marshal
Count Won Waldersee's methods of warfare. said
Herr Bebel's statements We're without founda-
tion. When Herr Bebel asserted that a Prussian
sergeant-ma could have better conducted the
campaign than Field Marshal Won waldersee.
he displayed extraordinary ignorance of the cir
cumstances and country. They ought be
grateful to Field Marshal Won Waldersee that,
with his devotion to duty and high intelligence.
he had accepted the position intrusted TO him
by the Emperor and had established a certain
amount of order in China The troops also de-
serve5 well Of their country. There existed in
China a factory Of lies. Field Marshal Won Wal
dersee had reported that the conduct Of the war
at the beginning more cruel than II would
have been in Europe. because OF the atrocities
Of the Chinese. But since his arrival he had
endeavored TO check the cruelty and protect
peaceable people.
Herr Bebel's speech was the bitterest that has
been heard for many years in the Reichstag
The war in China. he said. was the ''meanest
and most shameful which Prussia has waged in
two hundred years" He read a number of pri-
vate letters from China in support Of this as
sertion, declaring that il almost incredible
that such bestiality, lower than that among
beasts. can survive in Christian Germany"
But of course" exclaimed Herr Bebel, when
the injunction went forth from the Kaiser that
no pardon should be granted II was no wonder
that the troops behaved like Huns"
Herr Bebel was repeatedly called to order by
the president Of the Reichstag, Count Won Bal
lestrem.
General Won Gossler promised to prosecute all
papers which printed letters from China deroga
