The diplomatic featuro of tho Chinese situation today took preceilcncc over lioth the naval and military features. Tho ofllclals of this government were. If anything, more un communicative than heretofore as to the relations between tho powers and China. It was stated nuthorltatlvcly that no news of operations had been received and nnd lhat tho diplomatic negotiations could not bo made public. Tho most un satisfactory development of tho day. so far as the paclllc program of this govern ment goes, was tho receipt of a dispatch from Admiral Itemey conveying tho reports which had reached him of a disagreement botween tho commander of the Russian forrcB In I'ckln and the other Interna tionals. The text of the dispatch was not made public, but It wus said on good nil- I thorlty to contain tho statement that tho I llusslan commander had forbidden com munication with tho Chinese on tho ground that Russia was technically as well as prnctlcally at war with China. It may be paid that this Information was not con voyed by Admlrul Uemey as olllclal nows. but merely ns a report from reliable sources, which ho considered this govern ment should possess for Its own Informa tion. Itiinsln Oul nf Tiiiip. Assuming Admiral Remey's report to be correct, this movo on tho part of Russia strikes tho first nolo of discord In tho hcrctoforo harmonious concert of tho powers. Tho possibilities of futiiro com plications that It opens up would ho serious to a degree. It may be said, how ever, that tho news is not taken very sorlously by the government nnd certainly will not nffoct our courso lu nny way" until It hen ben-omHiillr conllrmed It was ex plained that tho Hltuntlnn growing out of tho Joint occupation of I'ckln liy tho powera wiih delicate, although not necessarily to bo described as serious. Tho Interests of nil the powers thcro representated woro nt least competitive, If not nntngonlstlc nnd an Ill-considered movo on tho part of nny ono government might easily entail disagreeable consequences lu which nil would bo more or less Involved. At tho pnmo time, it was explained, all of the gov ernments represented in China were anxious to avert any open clash if this could bo done without sacrificing whnt they considered their rights in Iho prem ises. Attitude or Untied Stntcn. In this situation tho United States oc cupied tho position It had held nil through tho disturbance, namely, of being the ono power least under suspicion by tho others of selfish nnd ulterior motives. This gov ernment Is exceedingly anxious lo maintain this vantage ground and retnln tho conll- denco of tlio other powers, so that It Is now moro than over cautious as to the next step to bo taken. Tho decision to address In ductions to tho United Slates representa tives at tho courts of tho various powers was reached after tho most tnnturo delib eration. It would have been n satisfaction lo this government If the action could liave been taken without exciting comment of nny sort. Owing to thq fact thnt this com munication was not addressed directly lo tho othor governments, nnd that It contained merely Instructions for tho guidance of our diplomatic, representatives abroad, It was decided not to mako public their report or Iho substance of the Instructions, lest tholr premature publication should defeat tho very object for which they wcro designed, namely, of nscartalnlng the temper of the various governments Interested, with n view to determine .what form of procoduro Is most likely to meet with general appro bation among them nnd lead to u speedy so lution of the problem.
