Pekin, Jan. S.-Li Hung Chang is bet

at singing the joint note when they
considered the question, until the court
was heard from again explaining chat
the Emperor's cdict directing them 20
put off signing prevented them from
using the imperial seal until pcrniS-
sion shall have been received, which
permission they claim to expect hourly.
1t is known here among the Chinese
that the extreme anti-forcign element
is now in power and the court favor
ties now advise the Empress DoWaG"r.
OF these the best known are Ii thuan
Lin, Il cabinet minister; Gen. Ma and
Tung Fuh Slang. Their views comm
eide perfectly with those of the south
ern viccroys particularly with those of
Ching Chi Tung. who has threatened
to rebel if the note is signed.

of China to sign may mean the allies

HAYS PROPOSAL
To Transfer the Chinese Nego-
tiations to Washington
Relates Onlyto Subjects of Indemnity
and Commercial Treaties.
Untet States Also Opposes Prolonged DC.
cupaton Of China.

Washington, Jan. 9.-The lengthy
conference held by Ambassador Choate
with Lord Lansdowne. British minister
for foreign affairs, and Ambassador
White with Baron Won Richthofen.
German minister for foreign affairs. as
briefly reported by cable, relate to the
proposition made by the United States
for the removal of the two subjects of
indemnity and commercial treaties
form Pellin to Washington or some
other foreign capital for negotiations
before AN international commission.
1t appears, however, that Berlin un-
Outstanding that Mr.. White submitted
4 proposal for the Withdrawal! of troops
from China as soon as the Chinese gov
eminent accepts all of the articles of
the joint note. except those relating to
indemnity and commercial treaties. is
rather an inference from the PROPOSE.
and not Il part of the proposal Itself
The United States has from the out
set sought to avoid prolonged occu-
pancy of China by the foreign forces.
This desire has become emphasized of
late as the refusal of China to sign
raised Il direct issue which the 'irrevo-
cable" terms OF the powers, threaten
ing to bring on a prolonged occupancy
of Pekin and other parts of the en-
pire.
For this reason it is believed that Mr.
White may have directed attention to
the desirability of Il withdrawal but in
any event this has been more in the
nature of a conversation on measures
of expediency, and not a direct propo-
sition from the United States.

THE CORRECT VIEW.
German Foreign Office Inclined 10 Agree With
Mr.. Coager's Opinion.

Berlin, Jan. 9.-Germany is not Yet
willing to define her position with ref
erence to Secretary Hays proposal to
transfer the Pekin negotiations to
Washington, according to a statement
made by high foreign official to a
representative of The Associated Press,
today because an exchange of views
between the cabinets on the subject Is
now pending.
The German foreign office, however,
believes that Mr.. ConEcr's views ut the
attitude of the Empress DoWagcr is
correct and that the position of the
Chinese court at Sian-Fu is growing
more and more untenable, rendering it
probable that the powers will soon
succeed in persuading the imperial
personagcS to return to Pekin.
