Chimes, Term. No, Settled.

Pekin, Nov. IL. via Shanghai, Nov.
1S.-The preliminary note has not yet
been presented. Its terms are not COM
pleted. and there will probably bc fur
thcr delay, but the belief that the note
OF the powers to the Chinese commits
sioncrs will be completed soon is
strengthened by the results of the re-
cent Informal conferences of the min
listers OF the powers.
Mr.. Congcr, United States minister,
said:
The situation Is apparently very IA
vorablc to the earl- beginning OF nego-
tiations for preliminary settlement. I
believe that the next meeting OF the
foreign envoys will virtually settle all
points of difference between the repre-
sentativcs Of the powers, who will lose
no time in presenting the demands.
What the result will he 1t is impos-
sible TO forctell. Events have placed
China In n very critical position.
Whether she will be able to preserve
her Integrity and to save her trade
relations with the rest of the world
VIII depend upon what the powers de-
mand in the final settlement and upon
her Willingness TO accept promptly the
conditions proposed.
1T Is quite unlikely, IL not impossi-
Bile, that the Chinese court will return
to Pekin before next spring. but do
not anticipate any serious delay in the
progress of the negotiations with the
Chinese commissioners. as they are in
telegraphic communication with the
court
Military operations are virtually at
n standstill. The German and Italian
expeditions northward passed through
the Nankin pass unopposed.

A capacity for taking pains in busi-
ness plans and products is more and
more condition OF success. Aus
tralian butter-packing may serve as
an example. Shipments are secured
against deterioration by placing the
butter in boxes made OF plates OF
window glass. the edges being closed
by applying gummed paper The boxes
are covered with layers Of plaster OF
Paris, and then wrapped in specially
prepared waterproof packing paper.
Such methods help to raise the aver
age of attention to details. The re-
1uctance of human beings to eat un-
appetizing things increases. 1t pays
to make food offered for sale attractive
in form as well as substance. The
high standard is money in the pocket
of the dealer and health for the con-
sumer. The converse is true. This
country has lost once-promising
trade in exporting cheese. Those who
ruined the trade know how they did
It, but they should be too much
ashamed OF themselves to tell the
world how it was done.
