The Presi- dent purposes to uphold boldly American trade rights, ang no matter what may happen to the empire intends to compel the observance of those rights, not only China, but by the rest of the world. China is finally divided into police spheres ch means the ultimate exten- sion of sovereignty by the powers, it is jossible that before the United States agrees to such a plan the powers will be requested to join in a pact that will pre- serve the guarantees given.in the ‘“open door” correspondence. WILL WELCOME THE DISPATCH OF TROOPS LONDON, June 26.—Replying to a ques- tion of Sir Ellis Ashmead Bartlett in the House of Commons to-day as to whether the British Government will arrange with Japan as the only power able to act with- out delay to send an‘adequate land force to China, A. J. Balfour, the First Lord of the Treasury and Government leader, sald it was undesirable to outline the nature of the negotiation in this connection. But, he added, her Majesty’s Government will welcome the dispatch of troops by any power which, owing to the proximity of its troops, may be able to act at once for the suppression of the disturbances in China. The First Lord of the Admiralty, George J. Goschen, admitted that owing to the absence of the senior British admiral the Russian admiral was the head of the in- ternational forces on water. | The Parliamentary Secretary of the | Foreign Office, St. John Broderick, in re- ply to a question said: “We have no direct Information from the legations or Admiral Seymour’s force or from Tientsin. Our last information from the commander in chief at Wei Hal Wei is that 3000 of the force for the re- lief of Tientsin was encamped within nine | miles of Tientsin on the evening of June 23. From private creditable sources we | are informed that the relief force subse- quently at Tientsin had marched north and that the legations were not harmed {up to June 20. We earnestly hope this is | true.” GERMAN QUOTA INSUFFICIENT to The Call 1900, and New_ York by the Herald Special Cable Herald. Copyright, Publishing Company. BERLIN, June 26.—In leading political | circles it is believed that the dispatch of | two marine battalions on a war footing to | China will prove insufficlent and that | further reinforcement will probably have to be sent. The North German Lloyd steamship Frankfurt, which is to trans- port the first of these battalions, has ar- rived at Wilhelmshaven. g e R FEAR AN ATTACE. LONDON, June 27.—The Shanghai cor- respondent of the es says: “A tele- gram from Niuchwang announces that the residents there fear an attack by the Chinese troops. The engineers and mis- sionaries In the outlying districts have taken refuge in the foreign settlement, which is protected by a Russian gunboa:. The railway is much damaged.” sl S WARSHIPS OFF SHANGHAIL PARIS, June 26.—M. Delcasse, the Min- ister of Foreign Affairs, informed a Cab- inet council to-day that the French Con- sul at Shangha! telegraphed under date of June 24 that all was quiet in the south- ern provinces, in the Yangtsekiang Val- ley and in the Szechuen Province. The Minister added that no news had been recelved from Peking,“and that eleven | ;:hlnes» warships were lying off Shang- ai. ST ok TROOPS OF THE SIXTH CAVALRY ARE ARRIVING | The troops of the Sixth Cavalry began to come in from the interior posts yester- day, and before this evening the regiment will be assembled at the Presidio. The | troops come from half a dozen different | posts, for since the war the Sixth Cavalry has been distributed all over the United | States, and its assembly at the Presidio will be the first time it has gathered as a regiment since peace was declared. Troops B, C, K and M got in yesterday with the headquarters and band. and to- day Troops A and D and two more will arrive. Troops F and G are at the na- tional parks of this State on guard duty, and they will probably remain with the | “home" battalion. The colonel of the regiment, Colonel Samuel Sumner, is now an attache of the | court of St. James, so the regiment is | under command of Lieutenant Colonel Theodore J. Wint. It is one of the best cevalry regiments In the service, and it will make a valuable addition to United States forces in China. St s, DUE TO THE BOXERS. LONDON, June 2..—The Hongkong cor- respondent of the Times, writing Monday, says: “Li Hung Chang officially an- nounces that the presence of foreign troops at the capital is due to the Boxers, and he urged all sections of the com. munity in Canton to be ready when the occasion arises to exterminate the ene- mies of the country.
