Delegates at City of Mexico Getting
 Down to Business.


 CITY OF MEXICO, Oct. 31.-The pan-American congress yesterday de. cided to name large number of com mittees. The leading committed that on arbitration and court of arbitration, will consist of nineteen members.
 Ill connection with the committees the delegations have the right to ap- point one member each for the com mittee on arbitration kAd court of arbi- tration. It is understood that the Unit ed States delegation will appoint W. j.. Buchanan as it's representative on the arbitration committee owing to the fact that he speaks Spanish and is fa- miliar with South American questions through his residence at Buenos Ayres as United States minister. The per sonnel of the other committees will be appointed by the provisional president of the congress, but it is thought that he will follow largely the wishes of the delegations.
 The committee on international equi- ty and court of claims is equal in i'm portance to that on arbitration. It is understood that John Parrott, Unit ed States delegate, will be member of the committee on International equi- ty and court of claims.
 The discussion of press privileges yesterday morning was attended with some surprises. Isaac Alzamora, vice president and delegate of Peru, made a splendid speech in favor of the am plest privileges to the press. while the Chilean delegates manifested opposite opinions.
 The recommendation to. include the Louisiana Purchase exposition among the subjects of general welfare was introduced by eX-Senator Henry G. Davis, who dwe1t on the importance of the St Louis fair. John Barrett, another United States delegate to the congress, spoke at greater length on the same subject and alluded to Presi- dent McKinley's proclamation bespeak- ing the attention and support of the whole world for the fair.
 MT. Barrett added the hope that Lat in-America would give it's hearty sup port and participation to the fair as mark of good will toward the United States.
 The congress did not complete the discussion of regulations at the morn ings session. The chief feature of the session was the report of the commit tee on committees, of which ex-Sena- tor Davis was chairman. The recom- mendations for appointment of com mittees, as already reported, were ap- proved.
 An extra session has been called for tomorrow morning to dispose finally of the press privileges in the congress. It is. expected that q limited number of newspaper representative will be admitted.
 One of the principal subjects which the congress will discuss at d future session is means for the suppression of anarchy.

TAX COLLECTION IN CHINA.
Frauds Perpetrated Upon the People
and Upon the Government.

Frau Is Perpetrated Upon the People
and Upon the Government.
The Chinese p,enipotentiaries are OBJ
jecting. of course, to the amount of in
demnity demanded by the powers, and
representing that It will cripple the re-
sources of China for years to come; but
examination shows that the interest
and sinking fund OF the capital sum
can be easily met with very elemen-
tary reform in the financial system of
the empire. An enormous saving can
be made by doing away with the tribute
rice system. At present two great rice
growing provinces, Anhai and Kiangsu,
are obliged to send up to Pekin annual
~ something over 100000 tons of rice.
This is supposed to be collected in kind
from the farmers, but the officials real
ly collect the tax in money. fixing the
rate at which the farmers commute at
about two and half times the market
price. The required quantity Of rice is
then bought in the market by the Off
cials, and here the Government begins
by losing three-fifths Of the money actu-
ally paid by the farmers. This rice is
then shipped in junks by the Grand
Canal, and in steamers by the sea route
to Tien-tsin, and 80 per cent is allowed
for waste and damage on the way.
A further loss accrues to the Govern
ment in that the crews of the junks al
ways take a quantity of general cargo
on their own account, on which they
pay no duties, the junks being protected
by the imperial flag. When it gets to
Pekin the rice-what is left of it's put
in the imperial granaries and is freely
pilfered by the officials, good rice being
taken out and old grain, mud, and rub
bish Of all kinds being substituted. The
pensioners of the Government and the
troops do not get this rice, as they are
supposed to do; they get warrants for a
certain quantity, which they are obliged
to exchange at the rice shops, where
they are given. perhaps. 80 per cent of
the face value Of the warrant. The in
genious can calculate Wharf.-The Govern
ment would save If it still collected the
tax in money in these provinces, and
then paid Its pensioners and troops in
money, allowing them to buy their rice
in the open market. A much larger saw
ing could be made If the present system
Of taxation and distribution Of salt were
abolished, and the salt were bought by
the Government where It is cheapest
and sold at the present average price
At present enormous "squeezes" are
made by the officials out of sail as wei
rice. There viii be another great econ.
omy to the Government when the likir
is merged in the duties collected by the
imperial maritime customs, as will. II
is hoped. be arranged Shanghai cor
respondence London Standard.
