The Associated Press in- formant also contradicted the statement from New York that part of the loan will aced in Germany. belélliscunderstood that the German Gov- ernment's motive in placing the loan in America was the Berlin high financlers’ diseatisfaction, because the Government placed the 200,000 loan of 1899 througa a ingle bank.

ENGLEND 1N THE DARK REGRRDIAG ORIENTAL PLANS Chih Luh, the Chinese Min- ister, Confers With Salisbury. S LONDON, Bept. 15.—Lord Salisbury is back at his post. S8ir Chih Luh, the Chi- nese Minister, had a conference at the Flreign Office yesterday with Lord Salis- bury. The United States, German, French and Russian representatives were also there, yet not one of the great Lon- don dailies has a word of editorial com- ment on the subject that is uppermost in the thoughts of the world's diplomats. It is a striking exemplification of how com- pletely befogged is the public of every European nation with regard to the pur- pose of their representatives. The Asso- ciated Press, however, hears from circles in close touch with the Foreign Office that a definite exposition of the diplomatic situation and the aims of the powers may be expected early next week, together with some inkling as to how it is proposed to attain the objects in view, but that at present the main point of discussion con- tinues to be the question whether the powers shall or shall not evacuate Peking. This, it is reasserted, ’s already provision- ally settled negatively by Great Britain and Germany, who are hopeful of gaining the united adhesion of the powers to a temporary postponement of the scheme. In the opinion of diplomatists, the way has been somewhat cleared for the ac- complishment of this by the recent notes from St. Petersburg explaining that Rus- sia’s real intent is wholly different from the meaning deduced from the text of the original proposal, as Intimating that Rus- sia_may compromise. Considerable importance is attached to the semi-official statement that Russia recognizes the Impossibility of the allies leaving Peking unless the Chinese Gov- ernment immediately enters, so that there shall be no interval withouta government, Additional confirmation of this view is found in the fact that Russia has resumed sending forces to China. This is entirely gontrary to the supposed spirit of the Russian note and prepares observers for & change of plans after the apparent fail ure of the policy favored in the original note. Muscovite Move Expected. Officials in London take little stc in the carping complaints of the Russophoe- bus, though they are fully alive to possibility of a Mu: » move in some unexpected quart and per! some surprise from Germany. They po out that many allegations of intrigue, founded on the most trivial incidents, and others like the report that Li Hung Chang sia alone have already been They deprecate the attempts to manufac. ture international friction from such petty causes, Lord Salisbury’s return to England has uickened speculation _as to the date of the general election. Nobody outside the Premier’s political surrounding knows the will be in the throes of an election dur- ing the course of a few days.
