ALL - BUREAU, = WELLINGTON HOTEL, WASHINGTON, Aug. 1— President McKinley will be back in Washington to-morrow : to consult ‘with the Cabinet about the Chinese situation and formally receive the new Japanese. Minfster. The - President’s re- turn at this time has little significance, and it is not believed there will be any important change in the poliey of “the Government ‘in relation to China as. the result. . There is little prospect now that a call of Congress in extra sessfon will be necessary. One topic that will bhe dis- cussed will be the tentative propesitions that China has put through Viceroys and others for the surrender of the Ministers at Tientsin, and the suggestion that If the powers do, not_ sagree.the Ministers may be held ‘as -hostages. .The President | approves Secrétary Hay's course in.im- pressing upon Minister Wu the fact that the United States would never treat in any - way concerning. the disposition -of Its Minigter until he had béen:put in free mminication with- - his ' Government.: ‘Should the Chinése Government make any- more propositions for & bargain as to. the. treatment of Ministers ‘the President may notity Peking that'if any harm should be doné. to Minjster Conger or any of those under : hifs proteetion. - every - person in ‘however high his station might be, would be held responsible. . ¢ _Ministér Wu has not:yet been able ta get 2 reply to the second .cipher message ‘which he sent to. Minister Conger for:Sec- ‘retary. Hay. He has a 0 tension has loosened in China since it is. kriown' that his friends have not exerted: | themseives so much to get: this inéssage 'and answer through as th d before. The Minister is' working hard to ;‘ctfl:l the friendship- o_:!:hwnned &t:.:as or his Government. eves a settlement of the "present difficulties not | gericy which might arise. A theory - that. the | bee extremely . adverse . to China can 'be brought about:only through the good of- fices: of the. United States. He has been hopeful that: the Imperial Government ‘would: take -advantage.of the opportunity offered by President McKinley and. would comply with che conditions laid down by the President:in his'lettér to the Em- peror. No information has yet been re- ceived, however, indicating that the Chi- nese Government will take this course. Meanwhile there has.been no change as to'the military programme, so far -as our. Government . is . .advised: The . senior ‘United States: naval officer at Taku al- |ready:is undér: the most positive.instruc- tions to urge a forward movement, these having been sent by Secretary Long just after .the’ receipt .of the original Conger measage, and he was ddvised also of .the intentfon of the Government to add to his force. | These matters-are referred to in the belated - dispatches from Tientsin | which toueh upon the military situation | and the prospects of .a speedy forward movement. Bit no additional mstructions on ‘this pofnt_were sent to.the United :States' army officers-to-day and the Gov~ ‘ernment is -allowing: its officers on -the | spot to shape their-own campaign. _Secretary Root ‘saidl to-day that there ‘had- been no ‘developments in the diplo- - matic'sttuation which would delay the ad- vance upen ‘Peking, and that Generar Chaffee had orders. to. cover any contin- ris atement has een. made in the dispatches from Europe. to..the -effect that the United States is pushing . General Chaffee for first com mand: It was gald at the War (mient to-day that such was not the case, | though it was recognized that the. situa- tion might be such as to make it neces- sary for him to accept command if ten- d_ond by other powers.
