washington, Feb. 7.--Reports con.
tinue to pour into the department OF
state from diplomatic and consular
agents in China regarding the rapid
increase in feeling against Americans
and things American, as expressed In
edicts issued by local authorities ~
various parts Of the empire. For 81
months the situation In China has
been the subject Of very genuine con
Germ to the department and Mr.. Rock
hill, the American minister at Pekin,
is under instructions to keep Wash
ington thoroughly and frequently IN
formed Of the situation. He Is also ex.
erting himself at the Chinese capital
in an effort to check or allay the anti
foreign feeling that appears to be grow
ing. While not admitted that the STU
uation Is one of immediate danger the
officials here will not be at all surprised
at any developments month may
bring forth.
Although at the outset demanding
only a return to the provision Of the
original exclusion treaty Of 1880, which
excluded from this country Chinese To-
borers without specifying the classes
of Cinnamon which would be admitted.
in some provinces manifestos have
been issued declaring that II the boy
colt is rigidly adhered to America will
be forced to forego any exclusion at all
Such expressions have been immedi'
ately denied by Mr.. Rockhill at PekiD
Although directed primarily against
Americans the feeling Of ill-wilF that
seems to be growing in various partA
of the empire is Interpreted by Orient
alists to have far deeper meaning
In a word, 1t is declared to be anti!
foreign and there are indications thai
all foreigners with the possible excep'
ton of Japanese will soon be as keenls
affected as are Americans,
Informal representations regarding
the Chinese situation already have beer
exchanged between some Of the Euro
pean powers, but thus far this coun'
trv has not called foreign nations int
consultation because there is a very
general feeling among the European
powers that the Chinese are unJustb
Disseminated against by the American
government and so long as the anti

said, us rich man and a polished
man. Despite his eight wives, mo-
ment's conversation would convince
you of the intelligence. culture and
wit of the chieftain.
Il once heard an ignorant commits
sioner make in Quanah Parker's pres
ence a remark derogatory to the In
dian race. ~.
"The chief bit his lip. smiled, and
said:
Your remark shocks me greatly.
1t shocks me. as an old man in New
York was once shocked
"Quanah Parker then went on to
explain that the shock came to the
old man as he lay dying. He was
stretched out on his deathbed. His
pale, wasted hands picked at the COW
erlet. His family wept at the bedside.
Finally his grandson, boy of 9 or 10,
was brought in.
Your grandpa is extremely ILL.,
murmured the boys mother. Say
something to him.
The child thought little, and then
said in loud, clear treble:
:" Granpa, would you like to have
soldiers at your funeral?'" 81
