Mckinlcy's probable vote will be 2S2 and
Bryan'S will be lG5. Only 22l votes arc

DIR. Morrison, wiring to The Times
from Peking Sunday, says:
''The foreign ENJOYS have agreed to
two proposals that were previously reject
ed, owing to lack of unanimity. These
are Sir Ernest Satow's proposal that
China should agree to recast the CONNER
cial treaties and the Italian proposal that
China should consent to foreign financial
control as n guarantee Of the indemnity.
THE delay in the presentation of the
joilt note is due to postponemcnts by the
home governments. This increases the
difficulties of the situation and aggra-
Yates the dislocation of trade and finance,
especially the collection of inland reve
nues. At the lowest estimate the indem-
nifty is computed at EGO,OOO,000."
