London, March 21.-The Chinese am

in China were the subject of discussion.
There are some doubts as to the ex-
tent of the demands.
dispatch to the Daily Mail from
Nagasaki, Japan, mentions a report
that the Yang-Tse valley is included,
which tends to confirm the report from
Pekin that France has demanded that
China shall not cede any portion OF
the province of Kwer-Chau, this prov
ince being within the valley.
The Times has a dispatch from Pekin,
however. which explains that the de-
mands apply only 10 the three prov
inces, Kwang Tung, Kwang 81 and
Yun-Nan.
DEMANDED TOO MUCH.
Discussing the matter editorially, tho
Times suggests as an explanation of
these discrepancies that NJ. Dubail. the
French charge d'affaires at Pekin. has
demanded more than he was authorized
to demand, and that NJ. HanotauX. in
consequence, has disavowed them in
the statement issued yesterday, saying
there was no connection between the
demands OF the french government In
China and the Chinese loan.
The Paris correspondent of the Times
reports passages of a conversation with
a diplomat, in the course of which NJ.
HanotauX repudiated the idea that he
desired to join any scheme for the dis
indignation of China.
FRANCE GAINS NOTHING.
The correspondent represents NJ
Hanotaux as saying that France had
nothing to gain by taking Chinese ter
ritory; that Tonquin was enough for
her; that she did not desire to settle in
the Yung-Nan province or to seize
southern China, and that NJ. Dubail
had not been authorized to enter upon
the important negotiations attributed
to him.
France is not jealous of the Chinese
loan arrangements" said NJ. Hano-
taux. I'VE think, on the contrary,
