1t was the first time in the history Of the
Chinese court that their majesties have
ever received any commissioner from a
foreign land on a similar mission, but this
innovation was followed by a still more
striking one. At the conclusion Of the ad-

Barrett to convey to President Roosevelt

WASHINGTON. Aug. 28.-The inference
to be drawn from a reference to Minister WI
Tingfang In a Victorian dispatch that his
term at Washington has been extended for
another three years, cannot be explained by
the officials Of the Chinese legation here.
The latest Official information which the
minister has received was a communication
from Pekin indefinitely postponing his de-
parture from Washington. Mr.. Wu's sue
cessor, Liang Cheng, who is with the spe-
ciai coronation mission, headed by Prince
Chun, Is about due In China. and 1t is stated
by the Chinese ~oficials here that he ex-
poets to return to take up his new duties
In Washington next spring, In that case
Minister wv will not leave Washington
until April or May next. The usual term of
a Chinese minister at one post is three
years and by May l next. Minister WV will
have completed six years OF service at
Washington. However It is stated here that

Rowe and Watson Smith constitute the
committee.
Over a year ago 1t was voted by the
union to pay 500 to the temple fund upon
condition that temple bonds were TO be re-
tired. This has never been done. however
owing to the incoming Of a new adminis-
tration and the uncertainty Of the out
come OF the temple situation, and when
the matter was brought up In a meeting
several weeks ago it was urged that the
money be paid as voted by the union. con-
Siderable discussion arose and Il became
evident that there was a strong feeling
IN the matter. Mrs. Andrews, the unions
president declared that the money should
never De paid while she was at the head
OF the organization, and this created an
uhaercurrent Of feeling that refuses to be
-quleted, and 1t was finally decided that
the temple situation should be thorou1bIv
investigated and reported to the union.
and the second Wednesday Of September
was set for the decision by the union
whether the money should be paid.
There seems to be a ~preponderanee of
opinion among the members in favor Of
paying the money, especially as the tenn
pie project has received the support Of
the state union and the majority of the
other unions OF the state.
