“We have been advised that Li Hung

ically with the powers. Wo are igno
rant of the events occurring outside the
legation. It is surrounded by hostile
defenses. How could wo negotiate with
out the diplomatic corps regaining its
rights and tho legation grounds being
evacuated? If the negotiations prevent
the march of the allied troops, which is
our only salvation, wo risk falling into
Chinese hands. The section wherein
lies the French legation is occupied by
imperial troops, who have not entirely
ceased to fire. We ore reduced to siege
rations. Wc have provisions—horses,
