|German note demandsng punishment of the leaders of the rebellion in China pre.

WasHincton, Sept. 19.—A copy of the

liminary to entering upon diplomatic rela- tions with the Chinese Government was presented to Acting Secretary Adee at the State Department yesterday from the German embassy in London. As might have been expected,coincident with the arrival of Count Von Waldersee in China,this constitutes the mort impor: tant declaration of policy yet issued by any of the allies. Asthe Daily News re- marks: Germany’s circular note bas turned .he tables on Ruseia whore evacua- tion pro posal hed put Germany into an awkward corner. Now if Russia assents tothe German note, she wiil be unable to continue, rays the News, to pose ae China’s lenient and forgiving friend, while ifehe diseents, Russia will lay herself open to thecharge of reducing the punitive expedition to a farce. The London morning papers have little but praise for what is called Germany’s ‘“‘admirable note.” The Times goes so farasto wish that the credit for making euch a proposal belonged to Great Britain.

The Morniog Post alone, in a cogent and well reasoned jediiorial , points out a grave objection.
