TIEN ISL TO BE EVACUATED.
Secretary Hays Efforts successful.
All the Governments to
the United states Contention.

Washington, July g. Secretary Hays
prompt action upon the appeal of the
Chinese government Yuan Chi Kai and
Minister WI relative to the evacuation
of Tien Tsin has met with success. The
foreign generals who have stood in the
way of the evacuation will receive in
structions from their home govern
ments, and although one or two minor
points remain to be adjusted il is believ-
ed that Tien Tsin will soon be turned
over to the Chinese authorities.
Secretary Hay addressed himself di-
rectly to the governments interested
through the American ambassadors and
ministers resident at the various Euro
pear courts and Tokyo. Answers have
been received from nearly all Of these.
The latest came today from France and
Germany and quite Unexpectedly they
have all proven to be favorable to the
United states contention. The powers
are agreed to instruct their generals at
Tien Tsin to abandon the condition
sought to be imposed as a precedent TO
evacuation, that save small police force
OF 500 men the Chiese military forces

FINAL NEGOTIATIONS IN TROGRESS
Between United States and COIOm-
b~ia-Matters About the
Canal.

Washington, July 9.-Final negotia-
tions for the conclusion of the definite
treaty between the United States and
Colombia which is to authorize the con-
struction of the Panama III began at
the state department today at a meet
ing between Secretary Hay and Mr..
Cromwell, representing the Panama ca
nal and the Colombian lega-
ton here.
Mr.. Cromwell at Secretary Hays in
stance, also laid before the department
of justice all the papers in his possess
sion calculated to assist the attorney
general in his work in settling the title.
Secretary Hay turned over to him a
mass of papers which the counsel ex-
amined very carefully. While no def
mite conclusion was reached a distinct
advance was made. Cable c%orrespon-
dence must be had with the Colombian
government, but it is believed that the
treaty can be signed within a week.
The Colombian government has decid-
ed to appoint a non-partiSan commits
sion to reearrange the electoral and
provincial districts Of Colombia, and 1t
was believed that, the way being clear
for new elections, the congress could be
elected and assembled within the next
four months, and the body could pro-
coed at one to ratify the canal treaty,
which is to be concluded here. 1t is
inferred from this statement that an
arrangement has been reached between
the Colombian conservatives and llber-
ais which will terminate the revolution,
which has now lasted for more than
two years.

THE GERMAN POSITION.
Attitude Secretary Hays
Que for Leniency Onward
China.

Berlin, July 9.-The officials of the
United States embassy here have been
verbally discussing Chineses affairs this
week with the foreign office represent
atives. The former again conveyed to
the German government the desire of
the state department that the Chinese
shall be treated as leniently as possible
consistent with the attainment of the
aims of the powers.
The foreign office expresses itself as
being in full accord with the United
States and intends a further withdrawal
of troops from Tien T5:n, which is al
ready gradually progressing when the
German officials are confident that the
occupation Of the city is no longer nee
esSary as a guarantee that China Will
carry out all the subordinate articles or
the peace treaty. The only provision
for improving the river and channel IS
regarded as important. If the uthor
ties at Pekin will make serious efforts
to redeem this pledge the German
troops will be withdrawn.
The question of the rate of exchange
in indemnity of payments Is not con-
sidered by the foreign office as likely to
provok serious differences OF opinion
either etween the Unuted States and
the powers. or between China n the
Mowers.

has fallen since July 1. The Cedar riv-
er is out of it's banks and many faml-
lies have been forced from their homes.
Numerous bridges have been swept
away in Lynn county. The Staunk nv
er and SQuaw creek are out OF their
banks and near their In
