THE JAPANESE INDEMNITY FUND.


REPORT TO BE MADE TO TIE HOUSE FAVORABLE
TO IT'S Repayment TO JAPAN-How THE
JAPANESE FEEL ABOUT IT.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNEl
WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.--1he old matter of the
japanese indemnity fund is to make its ap-
pearance again i'll Congress
Mr.. Schleicher of the House Subcommittee OF
Foreign Affairs, TO whom it wa referred has pre-
pared a report on the subject which strongly favors
the return of tho money eXacted by tine
United States from Japan in 1854. AS
soon Congress reassembles, this report
will be submitted to the House and
unanimously supported by the committee. The re-
port reviews the history and condition of Japan
during the PERIOD of its transition from entire seclu-
sion its entrance into the circle of
and then rclteratcs the reasons often told why TINS
country should not retain the indemnity fund. lns'
i'll the beginning. amounted TO S7s3,OOO; but now,
through the accumulation of interest makes Especial
fund, which, on the first of June last, was Sl,ooo'
S2l Co.,
Accompanying the report is new bill, which the
Committee offers as a substitute for the one now
pending. The new bill provides that only per
cent interest be allowed upon the principal which
makes the sum to be returned to Japan, 81, ,O9o-
AL 27, and gives $125.OO0 prize-money to the
officers and crew Of the Wyoming for their gaantry
in maintaining the honor of the flag" Fromthe fact
that the bill makes this provision for the people OF
the Wyoming IT'S friends think that it Will pass
both Houses without much opposition.
This afternoon the Secretary of the Japanese Le-
gation and Charge dAffaires in the absence of the
Minister, was sDoken to on the subject, and asked
bow the Japanese Government felt concerning the
return of the indemnity. He said Japan paid the
money under an agreement, and has noth-
ing to say about what is now bong done
in the American Congress looking TO IFS return
and is indifferent whether it is done or not II any
conditions or stipulations are attached TO the return
of the money he thought it probable that his coun-
try will refuse to receive II.
Mr.. Lanman, the American attache of the lega
ton upon being asked what the public sentiment
in Japan is in regard to the cxaction OF the inden
nity said that the people have always considetea
an outrage, and if the Japanese Government ha9
known more of international law, the money would
have been paid with formal protest
