Washington. Nov. 30.-It is under
stood that the ministers OF Pelin have
not included in their preliminary agree
ment the proposition of Japan that a
monument be erected by China to the
memory of the Japanese chancellor of
legation, who was killed in Pekin dur
ing the troubles. While there was no
objection to the proposition itself, it
seems to have come so late in the de-
alterations that II was deemed advisa-
be not to include it in the agreement.

RAPID SETTLEMENT LIKELY.
Battleship Kentucky's Visit to Smyrna

Constantinople. Nov. 29.-The opin-
ion is expressed in diplomatic circles
that the American claims arising from
Armenian massacres may now be re-
garded as practically settled. as an
trade providing for the building of
cruiser in the United States is officially
promulgated"
The question of the consulate at Har-
poot remains open. the Porte persist

to Dr. Thomas II. Norton. The moral
effect, however. created by the pres
ence of the United States battleship

Washington. Nov. 30.-No proposition
has come to the United States govern

proposition of this kind will be forth
coming. it is. of course. beyond the
power of the state department to inter-
fere with any arrangement that the
Turkish government may enter into

yidual claimants. The point, after all.

department officials are not very par

payments are paid.

London. Nov. 30.--It is probable, says
the Constantinople correspondent of the

he cancelled as soon as the Kentucky

PLAGUE BILLS WILL
NOT Be AUDITED.
Auditor Austin Says the Pro Rating
Idea of the Board of Health
Is An Impossibil1ty.

Territorial Auditor Austin is expect
ing quite a little difficulty when it comes
to paying the plague bills. When
interviewed by Republican reporter
yesterday afternoon Mr.. Austin said:
Il have received no notice from the
Board of Health as yet in regard to
plague bills. In fact the only thing /
know of the matter is what have seen
in the newspap ers. As for paying
the bills as suggested by the Board of
of Health that is an impossibility. If
The people will take their bills and
present itemized bills for four-fifths
the amount, presenting the remaining
part OF the bills when the new appro-
priation is made, then We can pay the
bill. But as TO dedueting 20 per cent
pro rata that is an impossibility. I'm
less the people do as we suggested we
will have to take the bills on file and
pay the oldest ones first until the
appropriation is exhausted"
