"The company, as I have heretofore

Note of fteeretnry Mr*.
Washington. Oct. JO —The Mate be
partmant her# has not yet been advised
officially of the term* of the alliance re
lrted from Igvndon to have been reached
between Oermany arut England to main
tain tho territorial Integrity of China and
to keep imrts oprn. While the move gtveo
general satisfaction here, the official* my
that It la probably a nu-notrier to call
It an alliance. What probably haa hap
pened. they my, liar teen a reaffirmation
of prim tide* already agreed u|*on, not
only between England and Oermany. but
between all of the great Powers Interested
In china.
Again the offl-lala point to the note of
Secretary Hay of July J. defining the po
sition of the United Mote*, an.) declar
ing It to be their policy, among other
things, to "preserve China's territorial arul
administrative enilty, protart all rights
guaranteed lo friendly l*nwers by treaty
and International law, nnd safeguard for
the world the prtnrlp'e of equal and im
partial trade with all parts of tha Chi
nese empire."
The record ehows that oil the great
Powers accepter! the principles of Ihks
gusrantee of territorial integrity. Their
expressions on th# point of commercial
freedom were not quite as explicit aa
In the case of territorial Integrity, and
It appears from the study of the Hrltlsh
(•erman agreement shove referred to. that
particular care haa now heen taken to
cleor up any doubt on this point. Prob
ably Germany was the first to engage with
England on title point, because of her
anxiety to preserve for (hrmtn trade tha
Important commerce she has built up on
the Yang-tse river, which might fall to
England In o division The special refer
ence mode in the agreement to river com
merce. bear* out this Inference.
The United Slates will promt* I) adhere
to the principle* contained In this agree
ment ns |t Is directly m the line „f our
aspirations If Kuaetn can lie brought to
accept Its terms as binding iitwn herself,
there ran lie no doubt, according to tha
oflli-tal view hers, that a substantial move
ment will have been achieved toward a
final settlement of the Chinese trouble.
