Washington, July 23-—-The president today listened to the appeal Chi
nese government as transmitted to Minister Wu, and signified his to medi
ate between the Imperial government and the powers, but only on conditions which
f rst must be met by the uciyernment. The exact terms proposed by President
McKinley, through the state deparahent, cannot be published until tomorrow, as the
same will not be given out until that time The greatest secrecy is maintained relative
to the matter, but some of the demands which the president will make are and
are being discussed tonight. The answer is entirely consistent with the statement of
principles laid down by Secretary of State Hay in his nete to the powers, and it ac
cepts as TRUTBFun the Chinese statement that the foreign ministers in PeKin are safe.
Cfiina is Defiant.
•rt •
Defiance peryades the edict of the Chinese emperor, He resents the attack on
Tien Tfiin, and expects to’demand indemnity from the powers for the damage done by
the allies. He is very sarcastic and considers the attack unwarranted.
British Do Not Believe Them.
Secretary Hay received a cablegram from London, conveying the information of
the action of House of Commons. The house declares that the Chinese are not to be
trusted and that no credence whatever can be giyen their dispatches. They have no
faith in the Conger dispatch and say it is a fake'.
All Europe Says, Fake.
AH foreign governments are like England . Tjeynot believe that the Conger
dispatch is genuine and if genuine, it is some weeks old. Diplomats say that Conger may
have written the dispatch before July 7th, and that when killeed it could have been tak
en and laid aside for ju|t such an emergency as confronts China now It has already
served its purpose as a delayer and the cunning Chinaman is playing, a game for tiftie..

Foreign, as well as our own consul in China, say the message a-'gross deception,
and as they the ground their opinions should certainly have great. way P Secre
tary Hay cabled |ll of the American representatives and the answer -from, eachi is the
same, deception
The nipffiifis now a case of opinions only and time alone will reveal the real facts
it is true that the foreigners have been butchered, eyery Chinese official from the em
peror down are backing the boxers,as assurances from the high offices, state absolutely
that the foreigners are safe in lhince Ching’s palace ?
