China is now io hot water and knows not which way to turn. The advance ;uard of the ailied forces is well on its ?ay to Pekin, and the Chinese govern- ment, which has petted 4be Boxers with the hope of uprooting the Christian re- ligion in China by killing all Christians, ishes that it did not have the diplomats and foreign refuges on its hands. As foreign forces continued to arrive and the relief expedition was prepared it began to see the necessity of getting the foreigners out of Pekin or the foreign army would come in, so has attempted _bj; feigned kindness and persuasion to induce .the en- voys and their charges to leave Pekin un- der a Chinese guard, representing that, the several governments desired the min- isters to depart from that cit£, which was not the fact. / On the contrary the foreign govern- ments have not desired/The embassadors to leave Pekin unless so assured of safety hat the envoys themselves preferred to depart from the city. Two cipher dis- patches have lately been received from Minister Conger, and the Chinese gov- ernment declares that free communication of the ministers with their governments has been restored. However this may be, the third and most important concession asked by Washington before it would at- tempt mediation, viz: That the imperial forces co-operate with the troops of the allies in rescuing the ministers, has not been complied with, and Chinese soldiers have been opposing the advance of the allied army, while desultory rifle fire on the legations has continued, though ar- tillery ceased firing on the wall of the British legation about July 16th. Conger's last message says that in order to insure their safe departure foreign troops only can safely escort the legations, and the force must be large enough to guard 800 foreigners, including 200 women and children, as well ae 3,000 native Christians, who cannot be abandoned to certain mas- sacre. Mr. Conger declares: \We cannot accept a Chinese escort under any circum- stances, ?1 and all his colleagues forwarded substantially the same declarations to their respective governments, S«ven American marines have been killed and sixteen wounded in defending the lives of the ministers and their wives and chil- dren. _ After the receipt of the first of the mes- sages from Couger mentioned, which spoke of the continued rifle fire, this gov- ernment sent substantially an ultimatum to the Chinese government demanding immediate cessation of the hostile attacks of imperial troops noon the legations, and requiring the exercise of every energy for the protection of the legations ana all foreigners therein; also that Conger had advised that for the foreign ministers to leave Pekin according to the Chinese edict for their departure under a Chinese guard would mean certain death, and urging immediate compliance with the third clause of the letter of the president, offer- ing to intercede for China with the powers, which reqnired co-operation with the re- lief expedition for the liberation of the legation, protection of foreigners and the restoration of order in the empire. The Chinese officials were given to under- stand by England that they would be held personally responsible for any harm coming to foreigners in Pekin. In t&e meantime the advance guard of the relief expedition, after the victory at Pei-Tsang, moved on to Yang Tsun, the immediate objective point, which the allies had decided' to use as a base, and captured the place on the day following. Here the road crosses the river and gave the allies the choice of two routes the bal- ance of the way to Pekin. The way is being opened for the main force, which will follow about August 15th. The ad- vaace force comprises about a.OOO British. 2,000 Americans and -6,000 Japanese troops. The battle of Pei-Tgang was fought by these, the Japanese bearing the jrunt of the fight and sustaining consider- able loss. The Americans were in a rear josition and were to form a turning novement but the grannd was so limited ;hat they were unatfle to form in line. They lost none. It is apparent that the y&ited Bt&tes r Great Britain and Japao Sie in thorough accord and agreed on'a policy. They are the friends of China, who are pledged to the preservation of the integrity of the empire,and it is best that ;hey shall be the ones to conclude terms of settlement of the difficulty with that government. They will be in position to do tbis if first on the ground. The attack on Yang Tsun was led by the Americans and British. The Chinese had seven lines of entrenchments, but they were driven back from one to an- other, and finally fled toward Pekin utterly demoralized. The lyddite shells of the British frightened them more than anything else. The American loss was the heaviest, being between 60 and TO. The Chinese troops numbered 20,000. The latest news regarding the Chinese difficulty is that Russia has given approv- al for its minister, M de Giers, to start for Tien Tsin with his entire staff and the marine ^uard, on condition that the ex- isting government at Pekin and the em- peror afford them safe guarantee that the journey can be undertaken without dan- ger.

Conger has again wired under date of Aug. 10th that the legations are under siege by imperial soldiery and that the situation is desperate, the loss of the le- gations up to that date being 60 killed and about 100 wounded. The message concludes: \Whatever may be the out- come, we will hold out indefinitely.\ The British maritime customs office received a message from Sir Robert Hart Sunday evening saying: \The sooner we can get out of this, the better, for it is inconven- ient for the Chinese government and un- pafe for ourselves.\ Under date of Aug. 5th the Italian minister wires that shots were being exchanged between the de- fenders of the legation and the Chinese, that one man had been killed and two wounded and that the ministers had no news of the advance on Pekin. The fact that Great Britain is rushing troops into Shanghai as a safeguard against an uprising in the southern prov- inces has frightened the southern viceroys so that they, with Li Hung Chang, asked for the good offices of this government to induce the powers not to land forces at Shanghai. In view of the fact that all the governments a short time ago had a compact agreeing not to act separately, or in certain spheres of influence, this move of Great Britain is peculiar, and seems to threaten the peace of all the great south- era portion-of the empire. The United States has again made it plain to China that no negotiations whatever will be en- tered into until the Chinese government shall have complied with all the demands of oar government. Li Hang Chang has been appointed envoy plenipotentiary to treat for the cessation of hostilities. When the ministers have been rescued, foreign- ers protected and order restored in China the United States will withdraw her forces aod inform the other powers that the purposes for,which American troops were landed in China have been accomplished. Thus far oar government has taken the most sensible stand of any power affected, and It would not be surprising to hear at any moment that China had acceded to all its demands and bad begun to co-oper- ate with the allies lor the rescue of the ministers. If oar conservative stand proves successful it will demonstrate once more that the United States is not with- out diplomats equal to any of the repre- sentatives of the old nations of Europe. It is said that at toe battle of Yang Teau the Americans lost 10 killed and 55 wounded and that a part of the loss in wounded was due to a mistake of the English and Russians, who confounded the Utb Infantry in the darkness with the Chinese and. shelled them. Ten Amer- icans were wounded by this error. Col. Dag- gett,of the 14th Inf., led a beautiful charge, the battle lasting tout boars. The Brit- ish had 50 wounded. A cable from Gen. Chaffea, received Monday, states that he had arrived at Ho Si Wu, only 33 miles from Pekin, last Thursday, and he may be now at the very walls of the city. The Amerlean energy and Is a great accom- plishment. It 1» believed that the besieged foreigners will be delivered to tite allies and that terms of peace mill be agreed upon without a fight at Pekin. If so It will be a great victory for the American program. \* by a neighbor's bull which had broken into his enclosure.

Justice Davy, of the supreme court a Rochester, has held that a person has th. right to privacy, and has established a new application of the common law giv- ing protection against the unauthorized publication of portraits. This ruling covers partially the gronnd sought by Senator Ellsworth in his anti-cartoon bill which was defeated by successive legis- latures The case in which this new ap- plication of the common law was enun- ciated was brought by a handsome Roches- ter girl against a milling company who were using her portrait as an advertisement for their Hour.
