There have been many little side lights on this message that afford ground for suspicion, and now the British authorities have added their quota to the growing distrust of things Chi mese. It seems that Mr. Warren, at present acting as British consul at Shanghai, has been told by Sheng, the famous Chinese di- rector of posts and telegraphs, that Yuan the governor of Shan Tung, told him (Sheng) that a message had passed through to the United States from Mr. Conger on the 18th of July telling of the conditions ut the British legation. This cipher dispatch was “faked” by Chinese official 1t 18 pointed out at the State d Nowever, that there are plausable explana- tions of this curious fact which tend to show the authenticity of the cipher dis- vatch. Secretary Hay cabled to Mr. Conger that he might have implicit faith in the person who brought the dispatch to him Mr. Conger, the had u right to trust the man, and possibly he told him in a gen eral way the contents of the dispatch fn cage the messenger should be obliged to de. stroy it to Insure his own safety. However that may be, the British government has thought Mr. Warren's report worth the at- tention of our own government The State artment oficials do not ltke the Evropean criticism more or less attrib uting to our government a lack of whole- heartédness in the effort to get to Pekin, They point to what the American troops and marines have already done, to the loss in of the Conger, er since itograph dated Pekin partment, :DECLINES CHINESE OFFER ni Will Not Stay the s it re " stinl Capital | WASHINGTON, Juty ‘he United States government has abeolutely refused the Chinese proposition to suspend mili tary operations against Pe tn return for the delivery at Tien Tsin of the for elgn min RECEIVE ENCOURAGING WORD Amer ‘ ters.
