CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
BY A. w. MACY.
A CONSCIENTIOUS ADMIRAL.

During the Boxer rebellion In
China the Warshlps Of eight al
lied nations, England, France,
Germany, Italy, Austria, Russia,
Japan and the United States,
were lying at the mouth of the
Pei-Ho river, leading to Peking.
On the banks of the river, and
guarding its entrance, were tho
Taku forts, garrlsoned by Chi
nese soldiers. At critical juno
ture Of the rebellion seven Of
the admirals united In demand
for the evacuation or surrender
Of the forts, the demand being
accompanied by a threat to fire
on them unless II was imme-
dlateIy complied with. But Rear
Admiral kempff, In command Of
the American squadron, refused
to Join In the demand, on the
ground that he was not author
lied TO Initiate any act Of war
with a nation with which his
country was at peace. His In
structlons, he claimed, did not
permit him to commit an overt
act Of war The other COM
manders argued and insisted,
but he steadfastly refused. II Is
part Of an admiral's business
to fight, and II was no doubt a
great temptation to join In the
bombardment. Had he yielded,
he probably would have been
sustained by public opinion at
home. But he had the moral
courage to stand by his concep-
tlon of his duty under his In
structions.
