PEKIN, Dec al-Once more there is
a pronounced hitch in the proceedings
The preliminary joint note has not yet
been signed Mr.. Conger. the United
States minister, says he does not believe
that there are sufficient reasons why it
should not be signed in the near future,
and Sir Ernest Satow, the British mir
lister, takes the same view. DR.. Mumm-
Won SchwartZenstein, speaking for Ger
many, believes that the existing agree
ment will be signed sooner or later.
The United States are looked upon by
the Chinese as the only Power really de-
string to retain tho integrity of the Chin
ese Empire. The other Powers are re-
garded as desirouS of breaking it up. with
the possible exception OF Russia, who.
the Chinese think, merely favors a post
