PRESIDENT KRU6ER SAILS.
"London, Oct. 20. Germany and
England have formed an alliance to
maintain the integrity of China terri
torially and keep the ports open. The
terms of this agreement.which were
arrived at on October 16th, between
Lord Salisbury and Count Von Hatz
feld, the German ambassador to Eng
land, are officially given out as fol
lows: The German government and
her British Majesty's government, be
ing desirous to maintain their inter
ests in China and their rights under
existing treaties, agreed to observe
the following principles regarding the
mutual policy In China: Firstly, it
Is a matter of joint, permanent inter
national interest that the ports on the
rivers and litteral of China should re
main free and open to trade and every
other legitimate form of economic ac
tivity for the people of all countries
without distinction, and the two gov
ernments agree on their part to up
hold the same for 11 Chinese territory
as far as they can exercise their in
fluence. Secondly, both governments
agree that they will not on their part
make use of the present complication
to obtain for themselves any territor
ial advantage in Chinese dominions
and will direct their policy toward
maintaining the undiminished terri
torial condition of the Chinese empire.
Thirdly, In case another power mak
ing use of the complications in China,
In order to obtain under any form
whatever, such territorial advantages,
the two contracting parties reserve
to themselves the right to come to pre
liminary understanding regarding the
eventual step to be taken for the pro
tection of their own Interests in China.
Fourthly, The two governments will
communicate this agreement to other
powers interested, especially Austria,
Hungary, France, Italy, Japan, Russia
and the United States and invite them
to accept the principles recorded in
it." .
Washington, Oct. 20. The state de
partment has not yet been advised
officially of the, terms of the alliance
reported from London to have been
reached between Germany and Eng
land to maintain tne Territorial -integrity
of China and keep the ports
open. While the move gives general
satisfaction here the officials jsay it
probably is misnomer to call it an al
liance. What prpbably has happened,
they say, has been a re-affirmation of
the principles already agreed upon,
not only between England and Ger
many, but between all the great pow
ers interested in China.

brand of cough medicine that I did
not have in stock," says Mr. C. R.
Grandin, the popular druggist of On
tario, N. Y. "She was disappointed
and wanted to know wht cough prep
aration I could recommend. I said
to her that I could freely recommend
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and
that she could take a bottle of the
remedy and after giving it a fair trial
if she did not find it worth, the money
to bring back the bottle asd 1 would
refund the price -paid..-5 In the course
of a day or two-the lady "came back
in company with a friend in need of
a cough medicine and advised her to
buy Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I
consider that a very good recommen
dation for the remedy." The remedy
owes its great popularity and exten
