Of Allies to Pekle and Say (f They
Will Arrest the mrch Ha Will
Place the ninlsters In Com-
munication. Paris Aug. 2. The French
consul general at Shanghai tele-
graphs today as follows:
Li Hung Chang has stated to
the United States consul that the
ministers will be put in commu
nication with their respective
governments if the allies arrest
the march on Pekin. Chang is
yet unable to secure a reply to
the message in his care to M.
Pinchon (the French minister in
Pekin) as the Tsung Li Yamen
will not consent to the forward
ing of cipher messages for the
ministers. It is asserted that
the foreigners within the impe-
rial city and the consular corps
have-decided to entrust the de-
enss of the concessions to the
international naval forces."
Washington Aug. 2. The
state department has made pub
ic the following correspondence
between Li Hung Chang and the
department regarding the aband
onment of the campaign in Pekin.
Telegram sent to the United
States embassies in Berlin Lon
don Paris Rrmieand St. Peters
burg and to the United States
minister at Takio:
Department of State Wash
ington Aug. 1. 1900 In reply
to a suggestion of Li Hang Chang
that the ministers might be sent
under safe escort to Tien Tsin
provided the powers wuld ar
range not to march on Pekin
the secretary of state replied on
the 20th of July: "This govern-
ment will not enter into any
arrangement regarding disposi
tion or treatment of legations
without first having free com-
munication with Minister Con
ger. Kesponsiouity ror tneir
protection rests upon Chinese
government. Power to deliver
at Tien Tsin presupposes power
to protect and to open communi-
cation. This is insisted on."
"This message was delivered
by Mr. Goodnow on the 31st to
Viceroy Li who then inquired
whether "if free communication
were established between min
isters and their governments it
could be arranged that the pow-
ers should not advance on Pekin
pending negotiations?"
"To this inquiry the following
reply was sent on the first of
August:
Goodnow Consul General
Shanghai: 1 do not think it ex
pedient to submit the proposi
tion of Earl Li td the other pow
ers. - tree communication with
our representative in Pekin is
demanded as a matter of absolute
right and not as a favor: - Since
the Chinese government admits
that it possesses the power to
give communication it puts itself
in an unfriendly attitude to deny
it. No negotiations seem advis
able until the Chinese govern
ment shall have put the diplo
matic representatives o' the
powers in run ana iree commu
nication with the respective
governments and remove all
danger to their lives and liberty.
We would urge Earl Li earnestly
to adviso the imperial author!
ties of China to place themselves
in friendly communication and
co-operation with the relief ex
pedition. They' are assuming a
heavy responsiblity in acting

Old world privilege and restriction
reign supreme in Spain where there la r
a law that no subject shall touch the
person of the king or queen.
Alfonso XIII nearly suffered a se-
vere fall from this rule In his child-
hood. An aunt of his made him a pres-
ent of a swing. When he used ft for
the first time the motion frightened
him. and he began to cry whereupon e
lackey lifted him quietly oat of It and
so. no doubt preserved him from Call-
ing. The breach of etiquette however'
was flagrant and dreadful. The queen
was obliged to punish It by dismissing
the man from his post At the ease
time ahe showed her real feelings en
the subject by appointing nun imme-
diately to another and- better plaee ta '
the royal household.
In another case a queen of Spain
nearly lost her life In a dreadful way
owing to this peculiar rule. 8 he ha4
been thrown when oat riding and. her
foot catching in the stirrup she was
dragged. Her escort would not risk
Interference and she would have been
dashed to pieces but for the heroic In-
terposition of a young man who stop-
ped the horse and released her front
her dangerous position.
As soon aa they aaw she was safe
her escort turned .to arrest the traitor
who bad dared to touch the queen's
foot but he was not fo be seen. Know-
ing well the penalty he bad Incurred .
he made off at once fled for hla life
and did not stop until he bad crossed
t the frontier. -
