While the American Government, ever since the Korean treaty of 1882, had steadily and consistently discouraged China in the belief that in case of a crisis in Korea the United States would support the contentions of China, Great Britain had consistently supported China's pretensions. Now Great Britain, aside from ineffectual efforts to draw the European powers and the United States into a concert of intervention to thwart Japan, did nothing. British neutrality was, in effect, benevolent towards... Japan which in an unbroken series of victories found herself at the end of November, 1894, in possession of the seas, the peninsula, and even of Port Arthur which practically controlled the avenues to Peking. The American legations in Peking and Tokio, re- spectively, had been in charge of the Japanese and Chinese archives since the outbreak of the war, and Japan now leti it be known that she would be willing to entertain direct f overtures from China through the Americans. On the day after the fall of Port Arthur, November 22, Charles Denby, American minister at Peking, was authorized by the ♦ AMERICAN GOOD OFFICES— SINO-JAPANESE WAR 501 Tsung-li Yamen to begin negotiations through Edwin Dun, American minister at Tokio.
