Indemnity Proposed by the
Powers to be Levied
WILL BREAK CHINA.
Believed at Washington that the Russian
Scare Has Been Satisfactorily
Closed Down.

BY Associated Press:
Washington, March 22.-Although
the situation at Tien Tsin was never
here as really dangerous,
officials felt that prolongation of the
hostile attitude of the Russian forces
might lead to trouble in the end. so
that news of the arrangements by
which both powers are allowed to re-
cede from their position without loss
of honor, was we'll received here.
With this exciting issue withdrawn,
the Chinese trouble has assumed less
menacing aspect. and it is reported
the ministers have been able, leaving
in allegiance the troublesome subject
o findemnities, to make some headway
toward the disposition of the points
remaining, to be adjusted under the
articles subscribed to by China and
the powers. Further inquiry into
the indemnity question makes it ap
pear that the sum of 100000, 900
which the officials consider the maxi
mum that should be levied upon the
Chinese, represents absolutely the
limits of Chinese ability, according tc
the calculations of officials best in
formed as to the resources of China

THE NEW ROAD LAW.
An Opirion Rendered by Attorney
General Donovan.

An opiron Rendered by Attorney
General Donovan.
Attorney General Donovan replied
recently to an inquiry respecting the
new road law. that may prove of in
terest to many of the counties of the
state. He received the following
telegram from the county clerk of
Fergus county: Does the provision
of section 1, article 1, of the new road
law for the appointment of trustees
to hold Office until May 1. 1902, hold
good in counties which are not divid-
ed into districts? If not who takes
charge of first election?" The attor-
ney general replied: County COM
missiOners can only appoint
trustees in newly created districts
under section 1. Districts now ex-
listing are recognized and continued
in existence. Elections must be held
in such districts, but if there are no
districts in your county there will be
no need of an election this spring, but
county commissioners at their next
June meeting will district the coun-
ty and appoint trustees to hold Office
until May 1, 1902. The first election
in counties which have not hereto
fore been divided into road districts
will not take place until the first Sat
urday in April 1902. and in such coun-
ties the board of commissioners take
no action until the regular June ses-
sion, at which the county is divided
into districts and trustees appointed
for each district"
