to one half months rent, which it is
calculated will provide 20,000,0O0 taels
yearly, sufficient to pay per cent in
terest on 250,000,000 taels and clear
the whole principal in less than 40
years.
Two hundred and fifty million taels
is equivalent, roughly estimated, to
f36,000,000, but the total amount of
the indemnity is likely to be much
more.
Some of the powers are greatly
averse to compelling China to contract
loan for the payment of the indem.
nifty.
1t is thought that the increased cost
of raising the money required in that
way is likely to hamper the CONNER
cial development of China. and it is
therefore believed to he desirable to
have the money raised internally in
China.

Their majesties' privy purse, f11O,-

f125, 800; household expenses, f193,0OO;
works, 100000; royal bounty aims, f13,-

Queen victoria's allowance for house
hold expenses proved insufficient for
each of the last 13 years of her. life,
with one exception, and she paid the
deficit out of her privy purse.
The committee recommends f2O,OOO
year for the Duke Of York and f10,0OO
yearly for the duchess. No provision
is made for the children of the Duke
and Duchess Of York on account of
their youth.
An allowance of f1S,00O per annum is
