Washington. Oct. 4.-Propositions of China are being presented in rapid sue cessiOn to this government. The state department had no sooner disposed of one of these propositions today by de- liVering a response to the German government than it was confronted by an even more important proposition submitted by the French government, and within half an hour formally sec onded by the Russian government.
 The answer to Germany covered the subject of punishing the Chinese suo- jects and made known that the United States had instructed Minister Conger along the lines suggested by Germany. The Franco-R Russian proposition is under four heads. namely: First, the punishment of the guilty parties. Sec Ond, the interdiction of shipments of arms into China. Third. the payment of the indemnity to the powers. Fourth, sufficient guarantees for the future. In addition a suggestion is made for thr establishment of a permanent legation guard al Pekin. for the raging of the Talu forts and for the maintainence of a line of communication between Pckin and the sea.
 The impression here. in advance of action on these propositions by our gov ernment. is that they contain nothing essentially uniting them to be sub jects of consideration in the final se-- tlement.
