Count von Waldersee, as field mar- | | shal, was the ranking officer of those | ordered to China 1 - their Govern- ments upon the outbreak of the Boxer troubles and uvon his arrival on the scene of action he became commander in chief of the allied forees. During the occupancy of Peking by the allied forces he showed his rare skill as a diplomatist not only in deal- ing with the Chinese generals and statesmen, but also in minimizing the friction between the military of the several powers under his command, whose national jealousies more than ed | once threatened to make open rupture. A tthe end of that notable service | Count von Waldersee returned to Ger- many, where he was received by his august master, the Kaiser, with great display, and with added honors and titles went practically into well-earned rest. The Count was remarkable for the ease with which he worked in harmony with men holding widely different with situations in which different in- terests clashed. After the capitulation of Paris he, as chief of staff, was ap- pointed to act as special envoy to ar- range the ticklish matter of getting the French to pay' the first installment ol the war indemnity, and he brought count of the huge war debt.
