Chinese Crisis Deepens As Power Struggles Grow
London cables report uneasy tensions in Tien Tsin as Chinese regulars and Boxers reportedly move back toward the district amid a winter port closure. German forces are said to have suffered a setback, with casualties left behind.

Morning Post notes Admiral Seymour’s reception is cordial but actions stall, with viceroys continuing supply flows to the court, defying remonstrances as the allied position remains largely rhetorical.
