Chinese Have signed.

Pekin, Jan. l5.-The joint note of
the powers has finally been signed by
the Chinese peace commissioners.
Prince Ching signed yesterday. and Ii
Hung Chang. who is better, signed to-
day.
1t is understood that the malady
from which ii Hung Chang is suffer.
ing is Bright's disease. He was feel
ing worse yesterday. and therefore
postponed a.Iixing his signature. but
Prince Ching was hopeful that he
would be able to sign today. which
proved to be the case.
Prince Ching has protested to the
court against the appointment. said to
be contemplated. OF Viceroy Chang
Chih-Tung as plenipotentiary in the
place OF Ii Hung Chang He thinks the
latters advice absolutely essential al
though he believes it might be advis-
able to appoint third plenipotentiary
for China. and reiterated his desire for
the appointment Of Sheng. who would
be acceptable to the foreigners
So far as Chang Chih-Tung is con-
cerned. the ENJOYS who know him per.
sonally say that, while he is strongly
anti-foreign and has never made any
secret of his likes and dislikes. they
believe he would be satisfactory rep.
resentative of the Chinese, and there
would not be any objections to him on
the score of his recent utterances. In
deed, some of the ministers think It
would be wise for China to make
Chang -Tung a plenipotentiary.
Most of the ENJOYS have received
word from their governments that the
negotiations must be conducted in Pc.
kin. on the ground that for various
reasons other places suggested would
be Objectionable.
