One assumption Is that the Minis- ters declined because they would have gone out of Peking to certain massacre by the hordes of Boxers outside. Another is | that declined to leave until the other s were safely removed, some- ond the capacity or inclination of ng-li-Yamen to accomplish. But in the absence of the facts the Gov- ernment to-day determined to proceed upon the line already laid down, namely, that the Ministers are in Peking in need | of help. The Navy and the War Depart- | ments will continue the plans set afoot for | the dispatch to Peking of an expedition to | bring away the 'Ministers. A Cabinet | council to-day decided this point, and did so with all of the official dispatches be- | fore them as well as with knowledge of the contents of the Assoclated Press ca- blegrams from China in their possession. The decision amounts to a practical declaration that as yet there is nothing official that will warrant the assumption that the Chinese Government itself di- rected the uprising and attack. Secretary Hay gave his personal atten- tion to the situation, though far from re- covered from his attack of illness yester- day. found a satisfactory and honorable out- come of the present difficulties.

BERLIN, June 30.—The Reichsanzeiger to-day publishes the text of two tele- grams sent by Emperor William to Vice Admiral Bendemann, the German com- mander in Chinese waters, expressing his appreciation and thanks for the gall...- try of the commander and crew of the German gunboat Iltis in the fighting at Taku, and requesting the admiral to tele- graph suggestions for the bestowal of decorations on the officers and men. has private advices to the same effect, which he has brought to the attention of the State Department.
