Thi ^agrnt makes this comment: uTh< consuls aro without c^nfirma tion." These messages have been sen to Lord Salisbury accompanier by a statement by Mr. Morgan urging that the allies should taki no step to endanger the lives o the ministers. A message from the Relgiai minister, dated Pekin, Aug. 2 seems effectually to dispose o the rumors that the minister have either left or aro intendini to leave Pekin. The Chinese minister in Lon don says he lias received a tele gram from China anuounciii) | that a long imperial edict wa issued on Aug 2 authorizing th< immediate and safe conveyanci of all Europeans in Pekin to Tiei Twin. Several dispatches are printec giving hearsay accounts of Sun day's battle.

Thus the Chinese will havi lime to reform and recover fron the eff ects of battle. Only a smal garrison, with 14 guns, remain at Tien Tain, where some anxiet; is felt because of a report tha 15.000 Chinese are said to h moving two days march to thi southeast.

'This, however, is so utterly at variance with the action and intentions of the other ministers heard Irom that it seems almost incredible. It true, it opens up an interesting field of speculation concerning the fate of the Italian representative. The Chinese legation believes that the members of the foreign legations have not left Pekin but that they will do so. The Shanghai correspondent of the Daily News wiring yesterday says : "United States Consul Goodnow strongly opposes Admiral Seymour's intention to land 3,j 000 troops on the ground that [ such an act would not be warranted by the circumstances and wouiri iikeiy to create trouble. "M. Bezaure, the French consul, agrees to the arrangmont, but says that if the British land lorces the French will do likewise. The Austrians also will land men.
