Pekin. Nov. 15:—Reports that
this city has fallen into the hands
of the rebels are without foun-
dation. There has been no fight-

Prince Ching continues to act as
premier pending the arrival of
Yuan Shi Kai.

‘ Nor is there any indication
that Peking is endangered,
Foreigners in the various: leza-

presence of many Manchu princes.

is the safest place in the empire,
