TACOMA, Waah. Aug. 28. Oriental ad
vices Just received state that the audience
granted. July 26 at Pekln by the
emperor and empress dowager of
China to John Barrett, commissioner
general ot the St. Louis World' fair.
waa exceptionally notable and remarkable.
It wa th first time In the history of the
L-ninese court that their majesties have
ver received any commissioner from a
foreign land on a almilar mission, but this
innovation was followed by a still more
striking one. At th conclusion ot th ad
dresses exchanged by the emperor and com
missioner general, th empress dowager. In
violation of all precedents, invited Minister
Conger and Commissioner Barrett to as
cend the throne, diss or platform ttaelf,
where she engaged them In a private con
versation . through a high Chinese official
who eould apeak English. After asking
many questions about America, th preel
dent nnd the World' fair, she stated that
China would take part and aend an Imperial
commissioner la order to promote the com
merce and the friendly relation of both
countrlea, and particularly requested Mr.
Barrett to convey to President Roosevelt
China's deep appreciation ot the generou
attitude of the United 8tate toward that
country during the recent troublea.
WASHINOTON. Aug. 28. The Inference
to be drawn from a reference to Minister Wu
Tlngfang in a Victorian dispatch that hia
term at Washington has been extended for
another three years, cannot be explained by
the official of the Chinese legation here.
The laleat official information which the
minister haa received was a communication
from Pekin Indefinitely poatponlng hi de
parture from Washington. Mr. Wu' suc
cessor, Liang Cheng, who Is with the spe
cial coronation mission, headed by Prince
Chun, te about due In China, and it is atated
by th Chinese officials here that he ex
pecta to return to take up his new duties
In Washington next spring. In that case
Minister Wu will not leav Waahlngton
until April or May next. Tha usual term of
a Chlneae mlniater at on post Is three
year and by May 1 next. Minister Wu will
have aompleted lx yeara of aervloe at
Washington. However It la atated her that
after a three-year' term at on post, no
limit I fixed to a furth.r stay.
