1t now appears that Russia first put
forward the proposition for the punish
ment of the leaders of the Chinese up
rising. This was in a paper offering a
general program for conducting the peace
negotiations. The first item of the pro-
gram was the punishment of the Chinese
offenders. The proposal came some time
prior to the German note and seems to
have been concurred in by France and
some of the other powers. although it did
not receive such general concurrence as
to amount to an agreement. The German
note now takes up this first item of the
Russian program and makes it an indis-
pensible prerequisite to any negotiations
1t materially differs from the Russian
proposal, in that the latter made punish
ment part of the negotiations, while the
German proposition now pending is to
make the punishment precede the nego-
tiations.
