These Two Nations Are
Suspected of Seeking
to Partition the
Chinese Empire.
London, Aug. 29 - The aUies, resum
ing aggressive operations, have taken
the district west of Pekin. This state
ment, based on Chinese, authority, la
cabled from Shanghai. From the snmo
place comes the further statement that
Li Hung Chang has wired the empress
dowager at Hsian Fu requesting the ar
rest of Prluce Tuan and the disarma
ment of the boxers, in order to give him
an opening for oegitmilons with the
powers.
The illuminations projected at Shang
hai in ce'ebration of the relief of Pekin
haye been abandoned, lest they should
cause a native outbreak,
“Evidence has been received bore,’’
eay the Shanghai correspondent of the
Standard, “going to show that General
Yung Lu was the real author of the anti
foreign outbreak, the empress dowager,
Prince Tuan and the others haring been
persuaded by him to take an extreme
attitude, while he stood astdo and await*
ed developments.”
The American refugee missionaries in
Amoy, according to the Hong Kong
correspondent of the Daily Mail, are
anxious to return to the interior, but the
United States consul has forbidden them
to do so, and urges them to go to the
Philippines or America.
Shanghai advices to the Daily News
says that consular opinion there looks
up jii -Japanese action in the landing of
troops at Amoy despite the protests of
the consuls as similar to that of Russia
a'. New Chang, the while indicating a
tendency to partition the empire.
“Russian journals agree,’’says the
Moscow correspondent if tbs Standard
“that it is impossible to deal with
China in the spirit of revenge, as
suggested by Emperor Wil iam. They
Relieve that methods lata drastis oan
belter accomplish the end* of Rusiia
in Manchuria. The question would be
satisfactorily settled to Russian mind*
by the se xure of the aorthern prov
inces.”
