This is on a cleaver that my father was told was from the time of the boxer rebellion.

How do I date these markings, they don't look like anything I see online, they resemble some old markings from CCK cleavers I saw. Also I asked someone from a local Chinese restaurant what the markings said and she said they meant state department, ? Please help me understand this
