five articles Of that treaty. is in prejudice of
their friendly relations, and contrary To in
ternational law. Tsung Lii Yamen asks if
the Government of France cannot wait
until China withdraws her troops from Ton
quln when 4 complete treaty can be ar
ranged. They also aver that ifthe question
of indemnity is not considered as being
settled by the Tseng Tsin treaty, the de-
mand for indemnity is opposed TO the
third article. 1t is lanentablc that the ar
rangements for making proper treaty

and compels China to give the treaty Pow
ers a history Of the Tonquin question, to-
gethcr with the protest of China, and the
latter Government awaits an opportunity
