8 THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-THURSDAY, AUGUST 30, 1900. THE CABINET OFFICERS INSESSI0N Concluded from Pace 1.) tlons between Herlln and Vienna on all questions of Intcrnatiorml iollcy. The Situation Summed Up. One of tho best posted members of the diplomatic eornp, who Is actively cntrnrreil In present negotiations, to Any Hummed up the International com plication substantially as follows: Tlie1 powers were In complete accoiel up to tlie time ol the iiUnfot l'rklti. Hut with tli.it iiccoinpllslird tlie inotu Imimrtaiit question nroe to the future tout so of the ponrn In ilcillnic with China and en that there li not jet any complete accord. Hun fir It twins plain that tho I'nltcd htitea oppnM the illMiU'iiilerniciit of China, or liny mcive timanN teirltorial ex tension there, and In tliU penltoii liiissla and rrance Sinn to asree. On the other hand, white there Is nothlmr dtllnlte Indicating territorial etpJiision, jet the c-xe Iututmi led to the luduf that (lermany. (ireat iiritam ami prnuaiuy ji", nre not averse to a roiirp ivhlcli will lirinit about territorial divisions within the oiiplre. It vias mpposrd that .Japan flood r.n-alnst any division ol tlie unplrc, hut the landing of Japanasc troops at Atnoy canot he aitounted for on the pround that a "japiticsc temple had been burned, fin that It Is the .oiep'.iil view that Japin Is at last tnaMnir ready to be in a portion to hliarc in any dliilim of territory which must iome. The cmmo of Hussl.v in laMns New ChwaiiK ijimot be vicvicil in the wmt Hirlit as tho landing of troops at Anioj' or Shanghai, us tills i.n for tho nolo purpose of protecting Ilus'ia'a lallwaj line, and any ulterior terrllorlal pur po.ps have been tltselalinnl by llnsU, So fai ns (Jreat Uritaln'H purposes are cnneirncd, In the absence of anj express declaration the liml Jntr of troops at hhmchai is stronp evidence that (ireat llrilalii wishes to control the YatiR Te valley, which is tlie iijrilen of China. On the part of (iennany the doubt as to her futuie course Is due mainly to Count .ildcrcc'i spieches flncp the taUnir cf 1'iUn. These have indicated that he was Roin on an extensive campaign, and that tlie fall cf the Chinee cap ital was only the Initlil step in a comprehen ole programme, requiring the prrstnee of a large army. .lust what this means is not clear but it las nt le.t cieated much surprise in Washington and some other capitals. The dlf brinccs our 1.1 Hung thane's ciedentuls are three-fold. One ilc, including tliat of tlie I nlted Mates is tint the credentials are ae ciptalde; another Is tint they hae never hem shown to carry complete authority; while the tl'inl view is that the original credentials Were alhl nt tho time glun, but luio sltire become Invalid through the flight of the emperor and empress dowagtr, and the complete collapse of the Chinese government. The question of cre dentials does not geem so diliicult to dial witti nnd it probably will be solved to the satisfac tion of all concerned but it is not clear thus far that the rowers can be brought into tnni plcto accord on a general policy for the future of China. K.ieli appears to be waiting for the othir to act and on the pirt of pome there Is a tradltlonil disinclination to go into tlie outlining of policies. VIEWS OF LONDON. England Ready to Tnke Its Share of the White Man's Burden. London, Aug. 30, 3.15 a. m. Amid tho glowing dllllcultles of tho Chinese Im broglio, Mr. Ilrodorlck's emphatic dec laration at Thotncomb last evening proves that tho British government does not yt see any cause to depart from tho line of policy oilginnllv de cided upon, namely, to take no re sponsibility for tho condition of China. Mr. Brodcilck said he hoped it would not bo supposed that tho gov ernment was pusllanlmous In this re Mioct. Its object was to maintain Urlt lsh interests. It was quite readv to tnke its share of the white man's bur den, but could not admit that tho na ture of that burden would bo dictated to It by tho yellow man. "Here," tho Morning Post observes, "Is where the dlflleulty of selecting a policy comes In. Wo cannot decamp and leave the powers to settle among themselves." The Chinese minister In London as set ts that he is In constant communi cation with LI Hung Chang, who Is still in Shanghai. A Shanghai telegram says that LI Hung Chang hns sent a memorial, begging the empress dowager to ap point Prince Chlng, General Tun Lu and Lag Ts,e viceroys as joint peace makers with himself. It is rumored nt Shanghai that the Japanese gained a great victory over the lloxers and Chinese tioops from Pei-Tswang and Ho-Sl-Wu last Thursday at Teh Chou (?). Tho story says that 1,500 Chinese were killed. Including Prlnco Tuan. nnd that tho Chinese were driven back Into Chl-LI. Tho icform party, under Knng Vu Wei, Is said to be actively preparing for rebellion. Oenetal Creagh, in the urescnc: of Vice Admiral Seymour, reviewed 3,000 troops of nil nationalities at Shanghai, AVednesday. It is leported from Ha kow that twenty-five reformers h.ue been executed, their heads being ex posed. The Taku correspondent of the Dal'y Telegraph, wiring August 2fi. says that the country nrnunil Taku and Pekln Is devastated, with the rt-sult that the Cxhnles from children as fragrance from 'flowers. The little lips nre always puck ered to give or take a kiss. In homes where there arc children, love reaches its fairest and sweetest proportions. In childless homes the kiss of wife anil husband rjrows formal, and presently is neglected ; the springs of love in the heart become choked for want of use and exercise. Childlessness is o great sorrow to mail)' women. It is like a curse from Nature, who bids all crea tures to be fruitful. It is not a curse but a misfortune. Often the conditions which cause childlessness are removable. Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription has brought joy to many a woman uy giving her the happiness of motherhood. It gives to the womanly organs vigor and vitality, removes local obstructions, and practically does away with the piins and pangs of maternity. There is no alcohol or narcotic in "Fa vorite Prescription." I have never written you how grateful lam to you for your help in securing good health ana one of the sweetest, dearest, thirteen pound girls that ever came into a home," writes Mrs. Si. Vastlne. of 647 South Liberty St., Galesburg, 111. "I took six bottles of Dr. Pierce' Favorite Prescription, four of the ' Golden Medical Dis covery,' and four vials of 'Pleasant Pellets.' Ilefore I had taken four bottles of the ' Favorite Prescription ' I was a new woman. I cannot cuke pen describe my heart-felt gratitude." ' To keep the bowels regular use Dr. Pieicc'a Pleasant Pellets. 1 Its Mk Boxers nre most unpopular and are being attacked by tho peasantry. Tho Boxers who wcro movlnc north from Shan-Tung nre now returning hastily to their homes. Delated dispatches and tho stoilr.s of refugees arriving nt Chefoo con tinue to describe the terrible condi tions In Pekln. One of tho worst In cidents Is the shocking desecration of the foreign cemetery outside tho west wall. Tho detnlls are too revolting to be described. Hundreds of bodies of Chinese nte found In this Htrcets of Pekln, supposed to be those of traitors to tho cause of tho Hoxers. Communication between Pekln and Tlen-Tsln Is Interrupted, probably bo cuuse bands of lloxers make the road unsafe for couriers. Tho cuiintry north of Yang-Tun Is said to bo Hooded. A correspondent at New Chwnn? says that the Russians at Hal-Cheng are nwaltlng reinforcements, who to advance Is delayed by the Impassible conditions of the roads to Irao-Vun nnd Mulldcn. Meanwhile, the native population of tho district Is bslng treated with tho utmost severity. Kyo-wltnesses report nn Indescribable slaughter of non-combatants and the reduction of the country In the vicin ity of Port Arthur to a state of utter desolation. INDUSTRIAL NOTES.

Theic was a stirring o( iw ulatlvc Interest today which gave an appear nine of greater animation to the stock nutkft than it has shown for two weeks past. The strength centered in the still group, the greater port of the day but in the later dealings it fr iended throughout tli list. The list of actUe stoiks was nut a knj one, but smh a were dealt in show quite uniform gains extending to near a point or oer in many cast. Tlie gains wrro well held and prodt taking made only slight inroads, tho close being tlrm though quiet nt about the top. In tho steel group the gains ragnrd from a point to 2 and 2'4, the latter llg in is in National Fuel and hi eel and Wlic. Ihire was no exception In the group tu the up ward tendd.iy which wis due to the iewils of tho glowing demand for Iron and Iron prod ucts of prettj much all grades. Tho progress of negotiations for the settlement ol wage sched ules which are in progress was probably re flected also in the movement. The statements of railroad earnings of the day wire good, Includ lug tho Wabash nnnual report showing n pros perous jear, and St. Paul report for July.

" Fall Costumes Tailor-made Suits, and in fact, ready-to-wear things gen erally, have always been a famous factor in the growth of this business. We have been learning things about them for a good many years as fast and as thoroughly as hard study and ample opportunity would allow us. We have long since reached the--point where we could teach others. One of the things we learned a long time ago was that style need not be a matter of price. It is pretty hard to say just what style is, but it certainly isn't measured in money. A $15 suit can be as "stylish" as one at three times the price, if it is designed with taste and skill and courage, and is cut and finished with care and conscience. It is largely a mat ter of selection, and we select with a telescope for new ideas and a microscope for faults. There is here, as a result of this, the best collection we know of of Fall and Winter Costumes. Low prices, medium prices and high prices: All prices, except "unfair" prices. 4 Hint at S At S15 Of serges, black and navy blue jacket silk lined skirt lined with good spun glnss Percaline.
