Imper rial Edict and Governors Proc

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE state de-
partment has received two interesting
Chinese proclamations, one an imperial
edict issued from the throne concern
ing the raising of the war indemnity.
and the other by Gov. Yuan, viceroy Of
Chill, ordering the people to stop carry
ing weapons and to guard against
repetition of the Boxer trouble. The
documents are not only curious but
they are important, as showing some of
the results of the war. The imperial
edict discloses that China is seeking to
devise a plan for meeting the war in
demnity, and IS fearful that the heavy
tax on the people will Cypress them to
further disorder. The edict also ac-
cuses the Chinese officials of filling
their own pockets with the sums taken
from the people.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE navy de-

exact status of affairs at Porto Cabello,

that there had been some confusion in

the conclusion that the situation is
