Tryior to Iidace Foreiga Mlalsters to Leave Pekin-Oaly One Thlsr, to Do To Press On to Their Relief. By Telegraph to me Morning Btar. Washington, August 10. In the light of the latent dispatches from Minister Conner, received by the stfttA DAnartment through Minister Wu to day, the attitude of the ad ministration is that there is but one thing to be done in the present cir cumstances, namely, to press on to the relief of the besieged garrison at Pekin. This was made known after extend ed communication between Washing ton and the President at Canton. The Conger dispatch was accepted as showing conclusive justification for the imperative demand of the United States sent to the Chinese govern ment on Wednesday night, insisting that the Imperial troops cooperate with the international forces, in' the rescue of the ministers, and until this condition, as well as that for the ces sation of the bombardment, is fully conceded by China, there is no other course open but to press steadily on ward in the mission of relief. The Conger dispatch was received before daylight at the Chinese legation and as soon as the official day opened Minister Wu presented it to acting Sec retary Adee at the State Department It was in the American cipher and found to be an identical note with that of the other ministers at Pekin (that of the French minister H. Picheon, already having appeared) with the additional fact that seven members of the American guard had been killed and sixteen wounded. The discussion with the President led to the determination to reply to Mr. Conger at once, and accord ingly Secretary Boot and Acting Sec retary Adee conferred on the terms of his reply. The text was ready by 3 o'clock and it was forwarded late in the day. It was announced officially and positively that this message would not be made public, either in whole or in substance. It was made plain, how ever, that the message was sufficiently guarded so as not to further increase the jeopardy of our minister in case the Chinese have access to our cipher. As to the terms of the message they are believed to make plain that this government will not advise, much less direct, that Mr. Conger leave Pekin under Chinese escort, when the minis ter has advised Washington that this would mean certain death. Moreover, the reply, doubtless, lets the minister know that there is an unaccountable error in the statement of the Chinese government, as conveyed to him through the Tsung Id Yamen, that the foreign government had urged repeatedly that the ministers be sent out of Pekin under suitable escort. This clause, contained in Mr. Con ger's latest dispatch, shows that the Chinese government is leading him to believe that it is the wish of Wash ington that he leave under a Chinese escort, whereas the United States gov ernment .never has entertained for a moment the idea of having the min ister set out on the dangerous pil grimage from Pekin to the coast un der Chinese protection. There is no probability that the at tention of the Chinese government will be directed to its apparent double dealing, as indicated by the Conger dispatch. This government has transmitted to the other powers in teres teethe note to the Chinese government entrusted to Minister Wu on the night of the 8th. It has assurances from other powers that they have not advised their re spective representatives to accept Chi nese escort from Pekin. It was offi cially stated at the close of the day that no further representations have been made to the Chinese government since the Adee note of the 8th, and that none will be made until the Chi nese government has given some in dication of the attitude it will assume in complying with or denying the de mands of the United States. While the State (Department is com tinning to dispatch messages to Minis ter Conger upon the assurance of the Chinese government that communica tion is uninterrupted, it is doing so with comparatively small hopes of their delivery. This assertion was borne out to night when Secretary Root said that there was no convincing proof in possession of this government that any of our dispatches really reached Minister Conger. This indicates that the minister has not given a direct and satisfactory answer to many of the queries that have been addressed to him by the Department of State. THE BOER PLOT IN PRETORIA. A Number of Suspected Accomplices Ar rested Rljorons Measnres Urged by the Loadoa Press. , By Cable to the Horninz Btar. London, August 10. A special des patch from Pretoria says the Boer plot to make a prisoner of Lord Roberts and shoot all the British officers possi ble, discovered Thursday, included the recapture of Pretoria, and the shooting of Lord Roberta and to induce the burghers to rise en masse. A number of suspected accomplices of the conspirators have been conducted across the border. The British authori ties are awakening to the danger of allowing Boer sympathizers to remain in Cretoria, and the issue of passes to the burghers has been stopped. The Pretoria plot is the theme of many editorials this morning. All the papers decry the idea of treating the Boers too leniently. "Examples, stern examples," says the Daily Mail, "are necessary. Although we may not agree with Sheridan's fierce maTftn, Nothing should be left of an enemy but eyes to weep with.' yet this was the conclusion of a not in human officer who thoroughly under stood war." It is persistently rumored in Lou renzo Marques, according to a dis patch to the Daily Telegraph, dated yesterday that Mr. Steyn las com mitted suicide.

The average comment is that China is now genuinely suing for peace through Li Hung Chang. Dispatches printed this morning give further details of the taking of Yang Tsun. According to the Daily MaiFa correspondent the attack was led by the American, ana tne unusa. The Chinese position consisted of seven lines of entrenchments.
