He was asked for his opinion as to the

This news Is regarded of Importance,
Indicating as 1T does REIMBURSEMENT by

position to avoid direct responsibility to
foreigners for whatever may happen in

one of the most active in the outbreak
against the foreigners last summer. One
OF the other members of the council is
said to be greatly debilitated. A third

toward foreign interests. The choice of
these three Is looked upon as likely to
complicate the good which Ii Hung
