Prince Tsai Use. received today through
the legation at Washington a series of
dispatches from the Peking Government
confirming the press dispatches OF last
night to the effect that absolute quiet
prevails throughout the Chinese Empire,
1t Is asserted that any feeling OF unrest
which may have existed has entirely dis
appeared; TINT China is not on the verge
OF revolution, nor is there the remotest
possibility of an ant-foreign uprising
such as occurred III 1900.
In the dispatches received from the
Foreign office, Sir Chentung was request
ed TO inform Prince Tsai of the tranquil
conditions, as 1t Is realized that his posi-
ing visit 10 Europe will enable him TO dis
sipate much OF what the Chinese claim
has been Misrepresentation regarding In
ternal conditions in the Empire.
Reports Are False.
1T Is hard for our Government TO un-
derstand where these alarming reports
come from and why they are circulated"
as spokesman for the commission, ITO
those Of US who are conversant with the
situation the reports that have got abroad
