MISTAKE in AMOUNT
China Has Agreed TO Pay More Than
Demanded.
ERROR OF CALCULATION.
The Amount in Excess Of Demands
Is 100000 TaeIs.
WHAT TO DO WITH THE EXCESS
Is a Question that Has Not Yet Been De-
termined.
SOME WOULD FAVOR RENTING 1T
At Least, II Is Believed at Washington
that That Would Be the Position
OF the United States.

washington, June ga curious dis
crepancy concerning the amount Of the
chinese indemnltlcs has developed by which
II appears that China has agreed 20 pay
about 95,0oOoOO taels or S4,5oo,oo0 more
than is demanded by the ministers. Just
how 1t occurred Is not clear TO the ofh'
cials, but II appears TO have been an error
OF calculation in pekin in the drst place
by those making up indemnity claims and
later by the Chinese In their hasty dc'
ceptance Of the total.
AS finally made up this total was $50
100000 taels, but the present calculation.
after taking In all OF the demands known,
makes the total only 4i5,ooo,oo0 taels. In
the meantime China has agreed TO pay the
larger amount, 50 that the >questton now
arises what will become Of the excess OF
S5,Oo00Oo tacs.
Another question hns arisen In this con
uection which concerns the amount OF
bonds which shall be Issued to Japan. ~
that country has drawn attention 10 the
fact that It's share Of the indemnity can
not be negotiated on az favorable terms
as some of the other powers can make
It is understood that the matter VAS been
considered Of sufficient Importance to bring
70 the attention Of the president with a
view of learning the attitude of this gov
ernment on the matter.
The Chinese minister, who wac at the
state department today, said he was not
aware that the total indemnity was less
ny 5000, 900 taels than the amount China
had agreed to pay and for the present he
was not prepared TO say whether China
would ask to he allowed to retain this
amount It Is believed the United statoi
would decline to take any part Of the tx

Man Back from Porto Rico Tells Of
New Danger That Befalls Amer.
lean Troops.

There is one danger to American
troops in Uncle Sans colonial pos
sessions" said a man just back from
Cayey, Porto Rico, reports an east
'ern exchange, "that hasn't come to
the notice Of the war department..
"The night air at Cayey is decided
ly cool, and government blankets
come in handy. There are also many
other government supplies which APP
peal forcibly to the native population.
But there IL an Indigenous Porto
Rican product that appeals still more
forcibly to the soldier, namely, Porto
Rico's senoritas. If one of these la
dies expresses desire for poncho,
blanket, q hat or any one of a
dozen other things, the chances are
that the poor soldier finds himself
wholly unable to resist the masked
batteries of her eyes, and she gener.
ally gets what she wants for small
sum, or, as is more often the case,
a sweet smile or few pretty Spanish
words.
"Every little while the officers make
the rounds of the town and collect
no end of government supplies from
private houses, but the Cayey girls
have such winning ways that they do
not remain long unsupplied."
