The participants ex- plained their conference by saying it was | the first opportunity offered lately to | gather as many as four of the Cabinet members for consultation. Results fol- lowed In the shape of renewed activity in | the dispatch of reinforcements to China, | Admiral Kempff's cablegram, giving his | estimate of the amount of force that he | regards necessary to represent the United States properly in the movement upon | partment already has given orders | equipment of 260 marines for similar ser- situation by d atching from the Philip- pines at least two regiments in addition | to the Ninth Irfantry, already sent to | 'Taku. It was said that the Cabinet con- | sidered thi ubject and decided to give the necessary orders looking to a replace- roent of the tros withdrawn from Gen- eral MacArthur's command from the force going out from the United States. None | of the CaBinet officers would admit or | deny this, so It galned some measure of | [ credence. Unless Japan is to be left to do all of the fight'ng in the immediate fu | ture neral MacArthur must respond to this demand. By drawing upon the Phil- | ippine force at least a month could be saved in landing troops in China. Secretary Long showed this afternoon | | | how the navy was responding to the call for reinforcements by ordering 500 ma-" rines to be assembled from the several | | pavy yards and hurried to China. It is | significant that these are the first military | | forces to be sent directly from the United | States to China without iInstructions to | stop at Nagasaki for orders. The marines | will make up a force of 750 men, | the de- | r the | vice. They will be sent out on the first army transport avallable for the service. The Russian and French Charges and | : Minister were among Sec- | callers to-day. Save the | Chinese Minister they eame, they said, | for information, but it is surmised that | their object was to assure Secre v F ! of the willingness of the Governments of | Russia and France to allow Japan a free | hand in the matter of landing troops in | China to quell the Boxer disturbance. There is a suggestion in the air that this perfect understanding. initiated by Sec- retary Hay, has been brought about through the quiet acceptance of at least | one most important condition. What this condition is cannot be learned, though it is suspected to relate to terriforial acqui- sitions. Mr. Wollant, the Russian Charge, was among Secretary Hay's callers to-day. His mission was concerned with the Chi- nese situation and while no official expla- nation on the subject could be had, there is reason to believe that the Minister for- mally conveyed to Secretary Hay the as- surance that his Government was entirely willing that Japan should do everything in her power to meet the needs of the sit- uation, realizing that she alone of the powers was in a position to act speedily. It is impossible to ascertain whether or not any assurances have been exchanged respecting the limitation of compensation for the task the Japanese Government is about to assume in the Interests of civili- Peking, was carefully considered.
