Discussion at Washington Brings Out
Probable Way of Settling Indemnity.
Washington, June 1.-THE ambas-
sailors from most of the European
countries were in conference with
Secretary Hay yesterday mainly be-
cause it was diplomatic day, which af
forded an opportunity for discussing
the state of the Chinese negotiations,
and the modus vivendi concerning the
form of paying the indemnity is likely
to be settled by a joint and several
guaranty This will be in complete &C.
cord with the American view that
there should be no joint guaranty IN
the sense of binding each government
to securing the payment of the entire
1897 100000.
1t will be joint, however, in the
formal aspect of being executed by ali
of the powers jointly at the same time
and probably by the same instrument.
This instrument doubtless will include
a provision by which each government
is to assume no liability beyond the
amount of its own share of the indem-
nifty, which. in the case of the United
States, is limited to S25,000,0G0.

and | haven't the slightest doubt that
my wine was drugged. While l was
not made helpless, my head seemed as
big as a barrel. | could hardly keep
my eyes open. and if Duchene had not
put me in a cab and instructed the
driver l should never have found my
way to the hotel. l had to be helped
to my room. and l fell upon the bed,
dressed as | was, and was instantly
asleep. l had been asleep two hours
when l awoke as keen as a fox. The
effects of the drug had vanished, and
as got out of bed to undress l found
my legs all right again. l was fully
undressed and ready to get between the
sheets when my ear caught sound
from under the bed. l at once stopped
down for look, and my eyes rested
upon a man lying on the broad of his
back. l had him out in second. 1t
seemed to me as if l had five times
my ordinary strength, and, though the
fellow struggled furiously and cut my
arm with knife, l grasped his throat
and cho!Sed him till he lay like one
dead. 1t was only when l had struck
a light that l found the intruder to
| be Duchene. He had come in through
the window which opened on a We
randa. He had been working at the
/ lock of my trunk when l made some
| noise on awakening, and he had rolled
! himself under the bed. He had come
for that bag of gold, and he had meant
to do for me if necessary.
| | alarmed the house, the police We're
sent for, and the fellow was taken
away. but it was a good hour before
he recovered his senses. His story was
entirely false. and he had put up a
job to rob me. 1t was my testimony
that gave him five years in prison, but
after it was all over and he had been
sent away | was a bit sorry for him.
He could tell a good story, had a laugh
which made you laugh with him, and
few meu of his class in Paris or else
where could order better dinner. He
was not a grasping man withal. He
had planned to rob me of $4,000 where
smother would have raised the figure
to $1,000.

! l had been in Paris for couple of
months, living at a family hotel and
knocking about at my leisure, when
I made the acquaintance of Felix
Duchene, as he called himself. He
was man of about go and, though
a Frenchman from head to heel, he
spoke English fairly WE'LL He was
not man whom l should have select
ed as a friend, and yet there was 4
something about him which interested
me. He had travelled extensively, met
with many adventures and was a good
talker. l came to know him as a man
of nerve and courage. and, though |
feared he would turn out to be a para
site, nothing of the sort happened. He
seemed to have plenty OF money of his
own and never asked for the loan of a
franc.
l had known Duchene for three or
four weeks when we visited a dance
hall on one of the outer boulevards
one night. The place was a resort for
