TWO WERE BURNED. Germany Insists on Chinese Heads. Washington, Feb. 5.—Although most of the powers in Peking are willing to agree to a demand that China impose as severe a punishment as possible upon Prince Tuan, General Tting Fuh Siang nnd Duke Lan, Germany still insists upon their execution. The firm stand of this government against demanding the decapitation of these men, when such a demand cannot be'.^complied with, has caused a change in the nttitudc of some powers that have been supporting Germany. This government has never objected to the imposition of the death penalty, but it has urged that it be not demanded where attempt at coiftpliance would result in civil war. The United States is not seeking to form a combination of powers against Germany, excusable though such a course might be. To do so would be to divide the powers, and it would be difficult thereafter to obtain harmony of action. All that can he done is for Mr. Conger to point out to his colleagues the advisability of demanding only what the Chinese government can perform nnd for Secretary Hay to supplement his arguments by representations to the powers.
