'Translation of tho cablegram received
by Minister Wu on July 20, 1900, from
the tnotni of Shanghai, dated July 19,
1000:
"Have received a telegram from Governor
Yuan (of Shan Tung) dated twenty-third
day of this moon (July 19) who,
having received from the privy council
(at Peking) a dispatch embodying uu
imperial letter to tho president of tho
United States, 1ms instructed mo to
transmit it to your excellency. The imperial
message is respectfully transmitted
as follows:
" 'China has long maintained friendly
relations with tho United States and is
deeply conscious that tho object of tho
United States ia international commerce.
Neither country entertains the least suspicion
or distrust toward the other. Hecent
outbreaks of mutual antipathy between
the people and Christian missions
caused tho foreign powers to view with
suspicion the position of the imporial
government as favorable to the people
and prejudicial to the missions, with tho
result that tho Takn forts were attacked
end raptured. Consequently there 1ms
been clashing of forces with calamitous
! consequences. The situation has become
I more and more serious and critical.
" 'We have just received a telegraphic

4<I< IUW11<14 nuiii uur unvoy, VY ll XI!)J
Fang nnd it is highly gratifying to us to
learn that tho United States governnient,
having in view the friendly relations
between the two countries, has
taken a deep interest in the present situation.
Now China, driven by the irrisistible
course of events, has unfortunately
incurred well nigh universal indignation.
For settling tho present
diliieully China placos special reliance
i:i the united States. Wo address this
message to your excellency in all sincerity
and candiduess, with the hope
that your excellency will devise measures
and tako the initiative in bringing
about a concert of tho powers for the
restoration of order and pence. The
favor of a kind reply is earnestly requested
and awaited with tho greatest
anxiety.'

that the government nn<l people of the ]

puvposo of which wo landed troops in

from tho grave danger and protection of i
the lives and property of Americans |
who were soionrnint? in China in Mm i 1
enjoyment of rights guaranteed thomby j
I tivaty ami by international law. Tho j
same purposes are publicly declared by 1
| nil t ho powers which have landed mili- >
tary forces m your majesty's empiro.
"I am informed in your majesty's letter
that the malefactors who have dis- j
i turbed the peace of China, who havo
, murdered the minister of Germany mid :
a member of the Japanese legation, and >
| who now hold besieged in Peking those !
foreign diplomats wlio stillsnrvivo, havo
not only received no favor or eucnrogo- , '
, ment from your majesty, but are acta- 1
ally in rebellion against tho imperial an- j
tliurity. If this bo tho easo I most
j solo mily urge, upon your majesty's gov- '
i orumeat to give tho public assurauce '
whether tho foreign ministers uro alive, 1
and, if so, in what condition. i,
" i. To put the diplomatic representatives
of tho powers in immediate and
, free communication with their respoc- 1
j five governments and to remove all dan- ]
| gcr to their lives and liberty. .
"J. To place the imperial authorities
of China in communication with the relief
expedition so that co-operation may
, be .secured between them for tho libera- i
i tion of tho legationers, tho protection of ,
' foreigners and tho restoration of ordor.
"If these objects are accomplished it
! is the belief of this government that no
I obstacles will be found to exist on the :
part of tho powers to an amicable settle- (
incut of all the questions arising out of
the recent troubles and the friendly good
ollices of this government will, with the
assent of the other powers, be cheerfully
placed at your majesty's disposition for
that purpose."

"The provision question is the worst.
There aro no ice plants in the foreign
legations and they have boon accustomed

tou. A certain quantity of preserved
provisions were doubtless in stock in the
