WASHINOTON. June II. A dispatch has
been received nt the British rmbassay heri
from Admiral Seymour, In command of tho
International ttoops now on their way ti
I'okln. The dispatch disclosed the-extreme
difficulties encountered, mainly In the form
of tracks destroyed, and staid that the
progress was only three mllcB for the pre
ceding twenty-four hours. Tho command
ing admiral felt that It would bo dcsltablu
to havo additional force In order to meet
every contingency, although tho general
feeling was uxpreesed that the troublo
would bo lens difficult tn deal with than
had been expected. It Is calculated that
with the threo mlliH rovcrcd in the twenty
four hours preceding the admiral's dispatch,
which Is dattd yesterday, the international
forco was twenty-live mllej from Pekln.
There Is every Indication, however, that
tho twenty-tlve-mllc stretch will be the
most difficult of the route.

torn up. Upon approaching tho atatlon they
found "Iloxcrs" still carrying on tho work
of destruction, but the latter bolted Into the

lied up the line. Above the station a small

WASHINOTON, Juno II. The following
cablegram has been received from Admiral
Kcmpff:
"TONO KU, June 13,- Sccretary Navy,
Washington: Twenty-five hundred men are
on the road to Pekln for tho relief of the
legations; 100 are Americans; English nnd
Russians In largo majority; all nations here
represented. The viceroy nt Tien Tsln gave
permission to go there; ralltoad being ie
palrcd as forco advances. Ruslaus now
sending soldiers from Port Arthur with ar
tillery. KEMPFF."
John Foord, secretary of the American
Asiatic association, today resolved tho fol
lowing cablegram from the Shanghai branch
of the association:
"SHANGHAI, June 13,-arave danger
threatens Americans Yang Tse valley.
Urgently advise gunboat protection. Ameri
can association."
On the 7th Inst, the following telegram
was received by tho association from Its
Shanghai branch:
"American lives nnd l.-lermts In North
China are seriously Imperiled. Urge gov
ernment to act promptly and vigorously
with adequate force.
The association, using these two cable
grams as a basH, In circulating n petition for
signatures, addressed to tho president, ask
ing that this government tako energetic
steps to protect American lives and Interests
In China, also that tho United States act In
concert with tho other powers In this
emergency.
It was said at the State departmsnt today
that no request for 2,000 or In fact for any
number of troops has been received from
Mlnlstor Conger, as reported from Shanghai.
,a :i matter of fact tho Start department
has not heard from iMIniutcr Conger for
thirty-six hours past. As it Is gathcrod that
Luropean foreign ofllces nre In the same
position respecting their diplomatic repre
sentatives at Pekln It Is assumed at the
Stnto department that telegraphic com
munication bctweon Pekln nnd the outnlde
world, which for tho last three days has
consisted of a single lino running north Into
Russian Mauchurla, has at last been totally
Interrupted.
Tho Btatoment thnt this government has
not in tho slightest degreo changed Its p ol-
tlon respecting tho Inexpediency of lauding
United States troops In China Is made with
the knowledge on tho part of the State de
partment officials of the current reports
that other powers Interested, notably Great
Britain, Russian and Japan, cither have al
ready or arc about to land troODs nt Taku
and Tien Tsln. There seems to bo a dis
position to make a distinction between tho
use of troops and marinos under exUtlng
conditions, It probably Is assumed that tho
presence of marines on Chinee soli, In
dicating from their character that tho land
ing Is purely temporary, Is much less apt
to raise grave International Isflues, either
with China or with tho other powers rep
resented at Taku, Their employment, there
fore, marks the extent of the forco to be
put Into play by the United States govern
ment, according to tho present determina
tion, but for whatever injury has been sus
tained by tho United States, cither through
tho killing of citizens or the destruction of
missionary property, China will bo held for
a heavy Indemnity.
The Japancso authorities here say the
Yokohama press dispatch stating that Japan
U about to send a mixed regiment to China
Is undoubtedly correct, as It tallies with
what has been expected In diplomatic quar
ters, Mr. Nabeshlma th- charge, says there
aro thrro pori ! wuich -var ships and
transports assemble, namely Yokosuka, Kuro
and Sasebo. Ho believes that tho movement
will bo mado from Kure. Tho headquarters
of the Fifth military division Is only two
miles from the naval port, so that no time
need bo lost in getting troops nboard the
transports In caso tho movements aro de
cided upon.
In somo diplomatic quarters thero Is talk
of a Joint request by all of the parties In
terested, ou cither Japan or Russia, or both
of them, to land a Strang force of soldiers,
Instead of tho limited number of marines
now available. This, however, bus not yet
taken official form. Mr. Nabeshlma says
Japan would not act along such lines unless
all the powers united in a request of that
character. In that event ho fcola Japan
could very readily nnd single-handed put
an end to the disorder, as It could tor
ward a largo forco of soldiers capablo of re
pairing tho lino to Pekln nnd maintaining
perfect quiet.
In another high diplomatic quarter, rep
resenting one of tho first powers of Europe,
It was stated that as Russia and Japan both
had largo forces of soldiers near China, It
might bo oxpedlent for tho powers to ask
them to each send an equal number of sol
diers, This It was stated would create a bal-
anco between Russia and Japan, relieving
both of them from tho suspicion of dispatch
ing a largo military force for ulterior emit-.

LONDON, Juno 14. In the House of Com
mons today tho parliamentary secretary of
tho foreign ofllco, William St. John Urod
erlck, mado a statement In regard to tho
position of affairs in tho Chinese empire.
"Her majesty's minister at Pekln," he
said, "has boen In constant communication
with the Chinese goveriJmc:: .since tho at
tack by Hoxors on peaceable converts and
tho destruction of threo villages about
nintty miles from Pekln on May 12. On
May 18 Sir Claude McDonald reminded tho
Tsung LI Yamen (Chlncso forolgn (illlco) of
his unceasing warnings during tho last six
months of tho danger of not taking adu
quato measures to suppress the Boxers and
an Imperial decree was subsequently Is'tied.
On May 20 a meeting of tho diplomatic
corps was held, r.t which a resolution win
unanimously adopted calling on the Tsung
LI Yamen to take r.ioro stringent measure.
It was not then considered necessary to
bring tho International guards to Pekln,
but tho British rr.arlno guard nt Tien Tsln,
which had bten under orders to lenvo, was
detained tbcro and two Hrltlah ships were
sent to Taku.
"As no specific measures wero taken by
the Tsung LI Yamen tho diplomatic corps
met nsaln May 20 and decided, falling the
receipt of a satisfactory reply from tho
Tsung LI Yamen, to summon guards. This
course was adopted May 2S a.id a British
dotachmcnt of seventy-eight incu, with n
machlno gun, waa forthwith tent to Pekln
and 104 men v.ero .nt to Tien Tsln, whllo
four moro British ships were brought to
Taku.
"Nows was then received of the murder
of Mr. Robltisou aud the capture of Mr
Normnn, who was suluequeutly murdered.
"Sir Charles MacDonald continued until
Juno 5 to urgontly Impress tho Toun LI
Yamen with the necessity for taklug Instant
and effective steps to punish tho murdrroia
and restoring order, Informing them that
her majesty's government held tho Chi
ncse government respor.hlblo for tho rrlm
Inal apathy which had brought about this
disgraceful stato of affairs.
"These remonstrances having tin effect
lnd tho situation both at Pekln and In Its
neighborhood becoming moro threatening,
her majesty's government. June 1, tele
graphed Instructions to Kir Claude Mac
Donald and Admiral Seymour to take. In
concert with tho other powers, any steps
In their discretion, which was left unfet
tered, they might consider advisable for the
protection of tho foreign legations nt Pekln
nnd British subjects there, at Tien Tsln or
In the neighborhood.
"Sir C'lnudo MncDonnld, after a confer
ence with tho Russlnn representative at
Pekln, was empowered to support any Ohl
tieso authority capablo of maintaining law
nnd order, or any measure to this end, the
Russian minister being similarly author
ized. "In crnsequenco of further depredations
of tho Iloxers Admiral Seymour called up
threo moro ships and Juno 0, after con
sultation with the foreign commanders, de
cided to land a force and march on Pekln.
"On June 10 ho narehod with 1.078 men,
of which 050 wcro British. This force has
since been Increased to 2,300 men, contain
ing detachments from tho ships .of seven
of the powers. The admiral had advanced
thirty miles Juno 11, whn ho encountered
the Boxers nnd killed thlrty-flvo of them.
"Thu railway was much hroken up nnd
only three miles were covered In the next
twenty-four hours.
"About 250 troops are being embarked at
Hong Kong and tho Terrible. Is going to
Taku. Tho Russians nro landing an addi
tional detachment of 1,700 .men.
"Sir Claude MacDonald reported Juno 11
that disorders were occurring at Pekln.
"Nino British and twenty-five foreign
ships aro now at Taku and complete accord
prevails among tho powers In regard to tho
action taken by Admiral Seymour."
Mr. Rrodorlck concluded with denying that
he had tho least Intention of Implying thnt
Dreat Britain had any closer agreement
with Russia than with any of tho other
powers.

BERLIN, Juno II. Tho Berlin papers
print a dispatch from Tien Tsln saying that
tho International relief column has arrived
within thirty miles of Pekln, but tho dls
tanco remaining must bo traveled on foot,
na tho railway Is completely destroyed. This.
tho dispatch says, will requlro two or threo
days.
Thus far the German squadron hns landed
nt Taku twenty-two ofllcers nnd fi.'O men.
Tho German troops nt Kino Chou will bo In

originally had orders to relievo tho troops
now serving there and to bring them back
to Germany.
Tho harmonious action of the powers gives
satisfaction In pre6s and government circles.
but the Deutsche Tageszeltung demands that
Germany mnku common cause with Franco
and Russia in China against England In
order to Isolate her and break down her In
fluence.
Bishop Anzcr of Shan Tun said to an In
terviewer today:
"Tho Boxers comprise many of Cblnn's
highest class. Including scholars, man
darins and officials. Their head, or chief

Bishop Anzer does not believe thnt tho
