Tho description of the action given by
General Chalfce tallies Identically with
that previously reported by Admiral Remey
In the foregoing cubic and Is Identified
with It by War department nftliinls. Tho
explanation 'of the delay In tho War de
partment's report In that Oolonol Wlnt
probably forwarded his report to his su
perior at Pekln and General Chaffee then
sent It nfllclally to Washington. Although
General Chnlfco's cable Is dat"d Taku, It
Is assumed that It was forwarded from
Pekln over tho field telegraph line or by
courier. It Is assumed, however, that the
field telegraph communication Is Inter
rupted and that tho dispatch reached Taku
by courier. The fact that tho dispatch
was sent from Taku today was extremely
gratifying, an It proves that tho cablo be
tween Taku and Clio Foq Is working and
that there is no longer any Interruption
on the land lines from tho latter point to
Shanghai.
There was general disappointment that
General Chaffee's messngo contained no
reforencn to tho operations In Pekln, hut
this was explained on tho thoorthat Gen
oral Ohaffeo, aHNColonel Wlnt's superior,
was simply forwarding tho latter's report.
It Ik possible that Colonel Wlnt's report
may have reached him over the hold tel
egraph on tho day of tho engagement, Au
gust. 10,. and that-his 'cablo to tho dnpart
mont may have occupied tho Intervening
seven days, owing to tho Interruption of
tho field telegraphs In getting back to
Taku. This theory Is plausible In that It
would account for the failure to hoar from
General Chaffco since Augunt 10. tho day
after tho dato of his last previous mu
eaeo. Powers JlnUc o I'lniin.
The United 8tates government has not

Negotiations that have been In pro
gress for somo time involved last

nolo or rather of practically
Identical Instructions to tho United States
diplomatic representatives In Europo and In
Japan for their guidance In replying to In
quiries that wero flowing In on them dally
as to tho purposes of tho United States gov
ernment. Tho government Itself has re
ceived many such Inquiries from representa
tives of tho powers. It. Is believed that
these wero generally Informal, but. nevor
tholosa, ns thoy called for statements of pul
ley It was regarded us expedient that tho
ropllcs should not bo divergent, nnd to guard
ngalnst discrepancies, by direction of the
president, a fortnnl Instruction was drawn
up. That this did not definitely delliio the
intention of tho United States to withdraw
from China nt a specified dato was made evi
dent by the contlnuanco of inquiries from
Hid legations and the embassies here for In
formation on this point.
Vnteli tlio t'lillnl States,
There is a very manifest desire on tho part
of European governments to get some ex
pression from tho United States government
as to Its purpopo before committing them
reives. It Is believed that our answers hnve
been framed with tho special purpose of
avoiding a committal of tho government as
to its policy beyond tho points specifically
laid down in tho president's response to
Empeior Kwnng Tsu's first appeal nnd In
tho answer to M Hung Chang's appeal for
mediation. However this may bo tho State
department does not regard it ns expedlont
nt this moment to mako public tho latest
phases of the negotiations, so It Is Impos
sible to know from this sldo whether or not
they havo touched upon propositions to dl
vide Chlnn Into spheres for military occupa-
tlon, to provldo for a temporary form of gov
ernment nt Pekln or to endeavor to re-es
tabllsh relations with the existing dynasty
In China, though It may fairly be assumed
that something has been said upon these

tho principal speech of the' evening. Ho
spoko In part as follows:
The use In which our lot Is oust Is with
out it parallel In the past, nnd the oppor
tunities for workliiK for good and for God,
along satisfying linos of endeavor, are
t-reater than thev ever havo been before.
The veterans of tho '60s have mainly done
their work and their record during tho
great war will bo Imperishable. A countrv
free. 11 union Indissoluble, a Stars and
Stripes beloved and honored by all our
people, a common herltnge of a Christian
civilization and n republic first In the fore
most flight of Individual lights and broad
Justice, aro the Immutable foundations of
our matchless nation. And ns tho shadows
lengthen, ns thoy fnee the setting sun of
life, the veterans look with admiring nrlde
upon their sons as their successors In large
measure In all thnt Insures loftv views of
love of country and safe ambitions to pro
servo the American union In all Its noblest
possibilities of a wise ami eommnildlnu
civilization, atld-thc true glory of Almighty
God Not nil the heroes are to bo found
on the bnttletleld in war. for In peace flier
is a demnnd for the most stalwart bravery
and the must uncompromising vnlor. W-ir
often opens up the wnj for the exercle
of the noblest nunlltles of voung ma-ihnoi,
In composing the Irritations that have del
uged tho land In bio d. In our day wo
seo this view exemplllled. ns tho former
two great sections of our union have b.
come united In a common bond nf happy
citizenship through the commingling in
fluences of a common love of Justice and
of liberty.
Tho horrid hell of war has been super
ceded by tho sweet blessings of nonce, and
tonight tho sons of the veterans who
marched amid the sacrlllced of sorrow's
night of blood and nconv. meet In peace
nnd ioy. hnppy In their environments of
citizenship nnd peerless In their girth and
grant ns anient young Ainericins
I realize thnt tlie work of the aging vet
erans Is lnrcelv over nnd nnsl. and that
tho sons of veterans will soon bo called
upon to especially keen nllve tho tires of
imiioiini pairiniim wnen ineir miner
sloe- tho sleep thnt knows no wnkluc on
earth. Our future will be safe nnd strong
Just so long as our youth aro worthy ni
wise: when these weaken or fall all will
bo lot. It Is for tho sons of veterans to
lead the way In tho teaching of lofty Idea's
of patriotism in all the circle, of our
vouth, and so lay deep anil broad the list
liif foundations of Justice, ronton! and
religion, three pillars of the temple of
national fame of unrivaled national saft y
and ulorv.
Sec to it that the best Inspirations of
righteousness are always pressed and kept
at the front In nil our union, and that our
textbooks nro national In their scope. Just
mm worthy In their character and equnl
to nil the noble possibilities of u sacred
citizenship, based upon n common love of
our enduring liberties.

CHICAGO, Aug. 27 -The contest for tho
honor of entertnlnlng the next annual en
campment Of tho Grand Army of the Repub
lic promises to bo a lively one. Tho pre
pondoinnre of sentiment apparently fnvors
a western rily. umt both Salt Lake and
Denver havo delegations on the ground
working hard to secure the encampment ot
1901. In tho contest ths year somethliiR
besides geographical considerations nro ap
parently having much weight with the vet
erans. The passing of the years has made
much more difficult to bear the fatigue
of 11 march under the blazing sun than It
was In tho 'fiOs and many of tho most prom
inent raemljers ot the organization are
pronounced In tho selection of a city for
tho next encampment where reasonably cool
eather may be expected. This sentiment
111 undoubtedly have much to do with the
selection nnd It Is considered not unlikely
that the next national onenmpmont may be
held west of tho Mississippi river. Commander-in-Chief
Shaw Is quoted ns favorlnR
any place where tho comrades may hnvr
cool weather."
Major William Warner of Kansas (itv,
former roniinaiidcr-ln-chief of tho Grand
Army of tho Republic, will place the name
of Major Leo Rnlsseur of St. Louis to the

lldato for commandcr-ln-chlef for tho com

St. Louis vetcrnn will receivo prnctlca'ly thn
unanimous oto of the encampment.

meet tomorrow to consider tho complaints
which havo been filed against its action
as nn assessment and equalization board-
Tho complaints nro from the Minneapolis
St. Louis railroad, which claims an Ille
gal nsscssment because It was mado nt an
adjourned session Instead of at the regular
session for nssessmont of roads, nnd
further that their assessment Is excessive.
Tho Northwestern Telephone company al
leges an excessive nsscssment which makes
Its taxes out ot proportion to thoso on

Coddlngton county alleges nn excessive
raise In real estate values for that county
and demands relief.
