Washington. May PA careful xam,n-
alton of the figures Of the Chinese national
iebt show that at the present moment the
ueot aggregates only about 10000, 600, a
sum Insignificant, in view of the great re-
sources of the nation. The first loan was
made in 1875. and since that date there
nave been various issues. mostly for small
amounts. TIT ate of interest on these
'oans varies considerably, probably owing
to the different character of the security
offered, but the highest figure is 10 per
cent, and 1t may be significant tina the
last, made during the pending of war last
year, was placed as low as I per cent. Most
Of these loans were paid 10 the Chinese in
Silver, but in only W instances is 1t stipu-
lated that it shall be repaid in the same
metal, and the balance must be refunded
IN gold. In view Of this small floating
debt, 1t Is believed that the Chinese VIII
have no difficulty in raising the entire
amount of indemnity to be paid to Japan,

TO AVOID TROUBLE.
An American Revenue Cutter Racing ia
Bering Sea.


San Francisco, Cal, May 1.-THE
United States revenue cutter, Commo-
dore Perry, hurried out of port on an
important mission. She made all haste
possible in order to reach Boring sea. in
time to prevent a fleet of cutters which
is now heading for the sealing grounds
from Selling any armed vessels, as is
their present intention. Upon the fleet
ness of the Perry may depend the
warding off of serious complications
with England. The latter government
has practically decreed that any inter-
ference with armed sailing vessels fly
ing the British flag will meet with re-
taIiation in the shape of damages, and
the Perry's sudden departure for the
north is considered as an indication
that the administration does not desire
to invite any more trouble with the lion
on The sealing question.
