Although the governor had been suf

Washington, Sept. 4. Following its
announced policy, the state depart
ment is preserving silence as to the
progress of tho negotiations now
afoot respecting tho withdrawal of
troops from l'ekin. It is gathered,
however, that up to date no definite
responses have been received to our
last communication to the powers on
this subject. It is stated that, in all
probability, at least a week will be
consumed in diplomatic exchange.
In that time one or two things may
happen. Ilussia may yield to what
appears to be the wish of nearly all
the powers and refrain from carrying
out her purpose to withdraw from
Pekin or the United States forces also
will bo marched out. It Is clearly the
wish of our government that the
first of these lines of action shall be
taken.
The quartermaster's department
has sent to Taku enough supplies for
that department to furnish the 5,000
troops in China with all necessaries
from September 1 until May 1. All
of these supplies will be in China
within tho next 30 or 40 days. It ie
somewhat doubtful whether Taku
will be made the site of a large camp,
as the reports received by the qiuir
terninster'.s department Indicate that
tho facilities at this place are not very
good, there being an especial lack of
buildings for storing and warehous
ing the supplies. While it is possible
that a small detachment will remain
ut Taku, the belief at the war de
partment is that the main body of
troops will be wintered at Tien Tsin.

Washington, Sept. 4. The depart

port of the big trees in California
that brings out Bome interesting and
new conclusions. It shows that the

scribed by the report as "tho grand

scarcest of known tree species, with
tho extreme scientific value of be

of his countrymen in the Jackson

ration of the indignities that had been
heaped upon the unfortunate emperor
by the empress dowager were so elo
quent that the yellow men in the
