NOW AGREED
PRELIMINARY TREATY HAS BEEN
FINALLY FRAMED.
Terms Believed to BE In Substantial
Agreement With the French Vote
- Compromise ms Regards In
demnity and Guarantees-N0thing
Now Remains Except to Get the
Approval of the Respective Gov
ernments - American Capture a
Village and Defeat Bandits.

Pekin. Nov. 27.-At a meeting Sat-
urday of the ministers of the allied
powers an agreement was reached
upon the terms of the preliminary
treaty. Nothing now remains except
to secure the approval of the respective
governments before definite measures
bn the Chinese peace treaty are begun.
The terms are believed to he in sub
stantia! agreement with Il French
note to the powers, namely, punish
ment of guilty, indemnities to govern-
ments and individuals, retention of
strong legation guards and the occupa-
ton of certain places between Pekin
and Taku. NJ. de Giers. the Russian
minister, persisted in his refusal to
agree to the provision that China
should agree to pay an indemnity for
the outrages committed by the Boxers
inc give guarantees against their rep
etition. The British and German gov
ernments had made no change in the
instructions to their ministers, and it
appeared as though nc agreement
could be reached. A
Compromise Was Suggested
in the wording Of the point. This was
adopted and a satisfactory agreement
was reached. Tt is understood that the
change is simply in the wording and
does not affect the meaning of the pro-
vision. The ministers determined the
future boundaries of the legation
grounds. The matter was discussed
and settled so far as the ministers are
concerned. Their decision, however, is
subject to the approval of he military
authorities, who will look over the
limits agreed upon and decide if the
grounds as proposed by the ministers
will be easy to defend. If they decide
that there are military objections the
boundaries will be changed. A party
Of American cavalry went to disperse
a band of bandits in a village, sixteen
miles from Pekin. The village Syas
found strongly fortified, but h Ameri-
cans attacked and captured it, killing
seven Chinese.

that is, the amount which will actu
ally be paid to the tax collector
under said levy. But they also
argue that this amount will not
meet the expenses OF the county
government Tor the year.
Neither is this trtle.
The current and road expenses
are not maintained alone by the
tax levy. Other sources of reve-
nue. are saloon licenses, poll taxes
and fees collected by county offices,
which will amount to at least
100000. Any fair-minded man Of
ordinary capacity, ha ring investi-
gated the subject, will concede
thatthe present tax levy will i'm
pose lighter burden Of taxation
on the property Of the county, and
together with the other sources Of
revenue will be abundantly suffi
cient to meet all OF the expense:
to be incurred by the county dur
ing the year.

THOSE BANK LOANS,

We hear much talk OF a loan OF
twenty-five IiiilliUn dollars made to
the English governrileht by two New
York banks.
, Now, it was not necessary, as every
one knows, for the English govern
ment to come to America for "a loan,
but they knew that under this ad
ministration the banks control ID,
government, hence the loan for tht
purpose of bringing the two govern
ments in closer touch. No doub
this loan was promised the banks fo
their aid in directing the policy o
the administration with reference II
the Boer war.
BY the way, one OF these is tn
same bank whose vice president wrOt,
the famous letter to Mr.. Gage, secre
tary Of the treasury, asking him t.
place government money 10 his bank
land calling his attention to the con
trihution the bank had made to til
