IN A few DAYS
Japan and China Will Reach
an Agreement.
Final Details OF Concession Now Re'
main 10 Be Acted Upon.

WASHINGTON, March 20. - Ii Hung
Chang's arrival in Japan is regarded In
official circles as one of the most signin-
cant international events Of recent days. IL
is the first time in his life that the vener-
able statesman Of China has set foot out
side of Chinese soil. At his advanced ago
he now journeys to Chinas traditional foe
TO offer enormous concessions as means
of securing peace.
1t can be stated positively and authori-
tatively that the general terms OF this
peace are already understood, and what
remains is the arranging of the details
within certain specified limits. These
general terms have been brought about by
the efforts of United States Ministers
DENLY in China and Dun in Toxic H
was even feared at a late day that LIS
mission might fail, through the vague
ness of his authority TO treat for the ced-
ing of territory.
This was arranged, however, through
the activity of the United States ministers
in showing that the mission would other.
wise prove futile. The general terms OF
Ii Hung Chang's authority are TO cede
territory, pay a cash indemnity. grant the
independence of Corea and arrange new
treaty relations with Japan by which
Japan's extraterritorial jurisdiction in
China will be maintained. The exact
amount of cash indemnity is not fixed,
nor is the kind of metal it is to be
paid in agreed on. These and the bounda-
ries of the oeded territory are yet to be
arranged.
So far have the arrangements advanced
that Prince Lis mission is expected to be
consummated within q few days, unless
some unexpected hitch occurs. Count Ito,
one of the two Japanese ENJOYS is close
personal friend of Ii Hung Chang, the
two having settled the Coreen troubles OF
1885, So great is the japanese confidence
in the integrity of Ii and his ability tc
see that China carries out an agreement
that his promises of q settlement will
probably pave the way to speedy cessa
tion of the war.
The reports that Russia will intervene
to stop the agreement are known TO b,
misleading, from positive Information re
ceived here. These satisfy the authoritie:
that there will be no word OF protest from
Russia. The same Is believed to be true
as to France. although not with the same
certainty.

NO BACKWARD STEP.
Faculty Of Harvard Deliver Another BIO"
M Football Games.


CAMnRIpGE. March 2o.-The Harvard
faculty yesterday afternoon again took
firm stand against intercollegiate football
contests. and 1t looks doubtful IL the
Crimson will be represented by an eleven
ON the gridiron next fall. The motion
adopted was worded as follows:
The faculty, having received and considered
n communication from the committee ON the
regulation OF athletic sports, dated FEB. 20,
1926, remain of the opinion that no student
under their charge should be permitted 10
take part in intercollegiate football contests
The communication referred to was .
statement prepared by the athletic com
mittee appointed by the college corpora
tion to have supervision in such cases as
this At It's former meeting the faculty
recommended the abolition OF intercol-
Iegiate football to the athletic committee
The latter replied by suggesting certain
notifications OF the game, instead OF It's
utter abolition.
Yesterdays action Is not final; IL Is sut-
ficiently prohibitive TO prevent the game
for. while the facultyss ny not have power
TO abolish contests, ~ can prohibit the
men from engaging in them, which Is suf'
ficlent Another meeting OF the faculty
will be held April 2, when final and do
cisive action on the question Is anticipated.
