General Yung Lu in the councils of the
Chinese court has been officially pro-
claimed. Today he made tour OF the

eral Xung LII to be first grand secretary,
an Office not necessarily powerful, but OF
the highest honor. and vacant since me
death of Ii Hung Chang. Wang Wen
Shae has been advanced to the second
grand secretaryship to succeed Hung Lu.
The pilgrimage of Yung Lu was mace
with considerable pomp. He denied the
fact of his responsibility for the attacks
upon the foreign legations. The dowager
empress has issued two edicts, the first
reciting that many Chinese had formerly
studied abroad but were not ManchuS
and orders the Manchu cOurtiers and
generals TO nominate Mancnus between
the ages of - and - 10 go abroad there
TO study foreign branches of knowledge
The second edict abOllShes the pronlDi-
ton of intermarriage between Manchu5
and Chinese. which has been enforced
since the beginning of the dynasty, and
directs officials, by diplomatic methods,
TO discourage the binding of the feet OF
Chinese female children, because this is
a barbaTOus custom.
