PEklNG, Jan. 1O.-The dowager en-.
press of China has asserted her COM

III the most sacred hall In the Forbid
den City. The rules of the dynasty
forbid women to enter this hall, and
the dowager empress has never before
violated its sanctity.
The emperor will receive the foreign
diplomats in this hall Officials believe
the dOwager empress to bs paving the
way to be present upon this occasion
In order to prevent any communlca-
tions between the diplomats and the
emperor except under her censorship.
The dowager empress is preparing to
send letters to the ministers of the for
eign powers here expressing her desire
Tor the maintenance Of friendly rela-
tions and her willingness to receive ad-
vice in audience.
Progressive Chinese officials explain
that the dowagcr empress disapproyed
OF "Boxerism;' that her wishes in this
matter were overruled and her edicts
gArbled.
1t is possible that General Tung Fuh
Slang, the notorious antifOreigner,
whose decapitation has been ordered
