There seems to be practical unanimity of opinion among the powers outside of Russia that a blunder would be committed if the Russian plan was adopted. Germany is understood to have replied to the St. Petersburg note, stating that she deemed it unwise to allow her troops tg leave Peking be- cause all the purposes which led the allies to seize the Chinese capital have not yet been carried out. The Ger- man Government furthermors calls attention to the position of native Christians, who, if abandoned to the mercies of the imperial Government, would probably be as ruthlessly slaughtered as were thousands of their faith bcfore the occupation. Italy and Austria have replied along the same lines as Germany. Great Britain is known to agree that the interests of all nations demand the retention of the troops in Peking. Nothing definite as to the attitude of Japan can be learned, but it is inferred that she would prefer that the allies remain for the pres- ent. in Peking it is plain that Russia’s p: roposal will not be adopted. ‘With all the powers, except Russia and possibly France, agreed as to the desirability of retaining troops A diplomat who discussed the situation to-day pointed out that Russia’s real purpose had probably been achieved. That purpose, he thought, was to impress upon China the deep interest in her welfare felt by Russia. And having shown such disinter:stedness, and the other powers having decided on remaining in Peking, Russia can now say to China that in China’s interest as well as her own it is advisable for Russian troops to stay. the There is reason to believe that some of the powers have submitted counter proposals in modification of the Russian plan. As soon as Russia formally announces the withdrawal of her proposal negotiations will be begun to determine the force eack power shall retain in Peking. After that will come the all-important ques- tion of terms the powers will demand of China.

ARTHUR SUCCUMBS ATH, Me., Sept. 5.—Hon. Arthur Se- wall died of apoplexy at 8:30 a. m. to-day at his summer home, Smatl Point, about twelve miles from this city. He was 64 years of age. Mr. Sewall had not been in good health for some time, although he was not con- sidered to be serfously ill. He had been advised by his physician to rest as early as last June and he attended the Demo- cratic National Convention in July against the advice of nis doctor. He ap- peared to have suffered no ill effects from SEWALL TO APOPLEXY @ \ a4 the journey, however, and passed the summer quietly at Small Point. The fatal stroke seized him last Sunday. The unconsclousness which followed the at- tack continued until death came. Arthur Sewall, whose name as one of the Democratic standard bearers in the Presidential election of 18%6 became known all over the land, was born in Bath, Maine, November 25, 1835.
