TEXT OF REPLY
SENT TO CHINA
la Answer to Emperor’s Plea For
Our Mediation.
ME CONDITIONS ARE LIBERAL
No Action, however, Will Re
Taken Unless Assent of Other
Powers Is Secured.
The following correspondence be
tween the president of the United
States ami the emperor of China was
made public by the state department
Tuesday:
“The Emperor of China to His Ex
cellency the President of the United
States—Greeting:
“China has long maintained friendly
relations with the United States and is
deeply conscious that the object of the
United States is international com
merce. Neither country entertains the
least suspicion or distrust toward the
other. Recent outbreaks of mutual
antipathy between the people and
Christian missions caused the powers
to view with suspicion the position of
the imperial government as favorable
to the people and prejudicial to the
missions, with the result that the Taku
forts were attacked and captured. Con
sequently there has been clashing of
forces with calamitous consequences.
“The situation has become more and
more serious and critical. We have
just received a telegraphic memorial
from our envoy, Wu Ting Fang, and
it is highly gratifying to us to learn
that the United State government,
having in view' the relations between
the two countries, has taken a deep
interest in the present situation. Now
China, driven by the irresistible
course of events, has unfortunately
incurred well-nigh universal indigna
tion. For settling the present diffi
culty China places special reliance in
the United States. We address this
message to your excellency in all sin
cerity and candidness, with the hope
that your excellency will devise meas
ures and take the initiative in bring
ing about a concert of the powers for
the restoration of order and peace
The favor of a kind reply is earnestly
requested and awaited with the great
est anxiety. “(Signed)
Kwang Hsu,
26th year, Cth moon, 23d day (July 19.)
m’kinley’s reply.
The cablegram was at once com
municated to the president at Canton,
0., and the following is his reply:
“The President of the United States
to the Emperor of China—Greeting:
“I have received your majesty’s
message of the 19tb and am glad to
know that your majesty recognizes the
fact that the government and people of
the United States desires of China
nothing but what is just and equitable.
Tbe purpose for which we landed
troops in China w T as the rescue of our
legation from the grave danger and the
protection of lives and property of
Americans who were sojourning in
China, in the enjoyment of rights
guaranteed them by treaty and by in
ternational law, The same purposes
are publicly declared by all the powers
fvhich have landed military forces in
your majesty’s empire.
“I am to infer from your majesty’s
letter that the malefactors who have
disturbed the peace of China, who
have murdered the minister of Germa
ny and a member of the Japanese le
gation, and who now hold besieged in
Pekin those foreign diplomats who
still survive, have not only not receiv
ed any favor or encouragement from
your majesty, but are actually in re
bellion against the imperial authority.
If this be the case I most solemnly
urge upon your majesty’s government
the grave public assurance whether
the foreign ministers are alive, and, if
bo, in what condition.
“To put the diplomatic representa
tives of the powers in immediate and
free communication with their respec
tive governments and to remove all
danger to their lives and liberty.
“To place the imperial authorities
of China in communication with the
relief expedition so that co-operation
may be secured between them for the
liberation of the legationers, the pro
tection of foreigners and the restora
tion of order.
“If these objects are accomplished,
it is the belief of this government that
no obstacle will be found to exist on
the part of the powers to an amicable
settlement of all the questions arising
out of the recent troubles, and the
friendly good office of this government
will, w ith the assent of the other pow
ers, be cheerfully placed at your ma
jesty’s disposition tor that purpose.
“William McKinley.

SERIES OF TRACERIES
In Hew Orleans Recalls Lynching
of Italians Some Years Aero.
o
TWO POLICE OFFICERS ARE KILLED
Attempt fo Arrn.t. Alleged Negro Deoper
ado liringt On a Lively and iiloody
Buttle In Crescent City.
A trifling incident began a series of
tragedies in New Orleans Tuesday,
which revived memories of the Italiau
lynching some years ago. Two sus
picious negroes were hauging around
a quiet neighborhood, and somebody
took the precaution to inform the po
lice.
Several officers went to the scene,
and instead of making explanations or
going to jail, the negroes show’od tight.
Pistols were soon in play, and Officer
Mora was seriously shot. One of the
negroes was arrested, but Robert
Charles, who did the shooting, since
said to be a desperate burg ar and ex
convict, got away, although he was
wounded. The police organized a pur
suit and succeeded in locating the fu
gitive in his shanty.
Captain John T. Day, commanding
the precinct, led a posse of police to
this shanty and tried to reach the re
fuge by a dark alley leading to it.
They carried lanterns and were easily
distinguished, and when they got close
enough Charles opened lire with a
winchester rifle, killing Captain Day
and keeping np the fusilade until the
captain had five wounds in him.
A negro woman opened the door of
an adjoining room and told the police
to jump in, as Charles had rifles and
ammunition and an impreguable posi
tion. They obeyed, thinking to hold
Charles in his quarters until help or
daylight came.
Officer Lamb was the last of the three
survivors to attempt to reach shelter,
after emptying their revolvers in the
den of the negro, and Charles reached
ou,t and dropped him with a bullet be
hind the ear.
Nearly an hour elapsed before rein
forcements came, and these were
placed around the block to prevent es
cape. It was then discovered that
Charles had already left the room,
though a shot at the pickets told that
he was in the neighborhood. The two
dead policemen were removed, and a
systematic search organized, but no
trace of the fugitive was found. Po
lice armed with winchester rifles and
citizens similarly equipped, and a bor
rowed bloodhound kept op the quest.
The mayor of New Orleans offered a
reward of a hundred dollars and Gov
ernor Heard has added two hundred
and fifty dollnrs for the state. Parties
are out in all directions, even miles
away from the city, and all trains and
cars were searched. Suspects were
avrested in the suburbs, but were not
tbe right men.
In the meantime the police had work
to do, and the whole force was kept
busy.
Thousands of people gathered
around the scene of the shooting and,
lacking a victim or other excitement,
proposed vengeance on the property
and on tho negroes in the hovels
around. The police promptly, quelled
disturbances and jailed a number, but
the guard had to be increased.
ANOTHER “BELATED” LETTER.
Foreign Ollloe t London Hearn From Sir
Claude McDonald.
The foreign office has received a dis
patch from the British consul at Tien
Tsin dated Saturday, July 21, stating
that he had just received a letter from
Sir Claude McDonald, the British
minister at Pekiu, dated July 14, ap
pealing for relief. There were enough
provisions at the legation to last a
fortnight, the letter said, but the gar
rison was unequal to the task of hold
ing cut against a determined attack
for many days. There has been forty
four deaths and about double that
number wounded.
Tbe foreign office thinks the dis
patch does not affect the main ques
tion of the reported massacre of mem
bers of the legation at Pekin.
Photographers In Convention.
The Photographers’Association con
vened its annual meeting in Milwaukee
Tuesday with a large attendance. The
day was taken up with demonstrations
in color photography and papers.
THEY FA YOU AN ALLIANCE.
Secret Plans of Financiers Made Public
By Application For Charter.

with Great Britain would be an ex
cellent thing for the United States, a
society has been formed in Philadel
phia, composed of many men powerful
in the financial and political world,
who pledge themselves to work for
such au alliance.
The first meeting of this organiza
tion, which is known as the Trans-
Atlantic Society of America, was held
