lasr night if this were true.
No he declared with emphasis. i

Mayor Thompson was more inclined
to defer to his old friend, Senator
Kearns.
Il have not yet consulted with Gov
ernOr Wells as to the entertainment of
the president" said the mayor last
evening, but I do not think anything
will be done until Senator Kearns re-
turns, as the president is,ta be a guest
at his home during the visit. As Pres
ident Mckinley arrives on Sunday,
do not believe any elaborate plans for
his entertainment can be made on that

As President Mckinley is a Metho-

probable that he Will attend service at
the First Methodist church on the Sab
bath that he will spend in Salt Lake.

Plan of Mr.. Tung.
II have plan in my own mind which
I think is worthy of the attention OF
the diplomats, because believe It
would be a civiliZing influence. It is
ItlS- Let the powers agree upon the
amount of Indemnity to be paid, and to
contract among themselves and with
the Pekin government che entire sum,
says 100000. 600, to be used for build.
ing railroads and for other internal i'm
provements in China, under the joint
control of the powers, to be operated
by them until the full amount of the
investment is returned, and until China
IS IN a position to become, by purchase,
the sole owner of the improvements.
Railroads will do more 60 enlarge
the prospective of the Chinese than any
other one agency. They viii cause the
people of the interior TO travel and TO
acquire that breadth OF view which
comes from contact with the world.
Now China is in great need of rail-.
roads, while the rest Of the world is
clamoring for broader trade facilities
The situation seems to have been Gre
ated for reciprocal negotiations along
a certain line.
Railroads could be built by the
powers pn the basis Of a 3 or A per cent
cumulative indemnity bond
until the claims of all the powers are
paid In after years a chance could be
given to China to acquire the properties
out of the net earnings. after the in
demnity has been provided for ANY
surplus, and / believe there Will be a
surplus, could be used to develop more
railroads. BY that time the Chinese
problem would have been solved.
