There are two o4ter railroads set
down as likely buyers of UntoE Pa

There is good ground for beheVlng
that George J. Gould, as president 9f

VIII Demand |, 365, 600 600 Francs, to be Dis
tributed Among the Nations.

The creation OF a chief command is
desirable for purely military reasons,
as in cases OF disorder or troubles OF
any kind, military measures would be
place where troubles occur, and the
authority Of the commander in CHIEF
must also extend to the legation guards
at Pellin.
Count Won Waldersee thinks the min
listers statement that there had never
been q military administration or
permanent military organization in Pc
kin, as troops with banners could not
be considered as SCch. to be incorrect
as his investigation showed that a
strong garrison Of troops was at Pekfn
with the latest modern arms.
Concerning the question Of eyacua-
tion, opinions were divided The Brit
ish. japanese and German commanders
were Of the opinion that the evacuation
could NOT commence until China had
paid the total indesnniteS. The French
commander would commence by with
drawing 5000 i'm a fortnight and COM
pleting the Withdrawal Of the troops in
here, on account of the climatic condl-
lions. The Italian and Austrian COM
manders had no Instructions and Cen
eralz Chaffee Ehes-American commander.
abstained from expressing an opinion
General Wogack. the Russian COM
meetings of the generals, and Russia
was nos. re2reseEted.
The question OF evacuation is. most
difficult, on account of the appteaehlnS
hot season. which is very injurious to
the health of the troops. and which,
also, Will increase the costs Of the war

of hundreds Of soldiers and probably
mean the retention Of che troops for

The sc leFals We're unanimously Of the
opinion that the question couid speed

treat separately regarding the amount
OF Indemnity and the method of raising
it. The second part OF this question
must take many months before So

Paris, May 1.-THE foreign Office re-
cer7ed a dispatch from Pel5in announce
ing that NJ. Pichon. the French minis
ter. presented today the report Of the
committee on indemnity. The amount
China is to pay has been fixed at 1.365.-
600 900 francs How it is Drop0seds that
the Indemnity be distributed among
the powers is not set forth, but as the
dispatch does not mention The Hague
it is thought the ministers are hopeful
of being able TO settle the proportion
TO be received by each power by ais
cussion at Pe6in-
The indemnity figure is under what
has been. expected in Paris, as II was
thought the total would reach A,R90O09,-
600 francs. There is much disappoint-
ment over the fact that the United
states is suppoFtfng England against
an increase in the customs. This rs
attributed TO the. influence of the
American community in China
1t is believed that England, if alone,
would yield, but fears are entertaired
that England's scheme. is to proiong
the negotiations until her hands are
free in South Africa. when she would
show q stronger policy in Chinese al
fairs
Oflcial advices received here from
Pekin say the ministers are divided
into two parties IN the discussion to
decide how China is to raise the in
demnity France. Germany Russia
and Japan agree in favor OF raising the
customs duties. which can be relied
upon to produce a great part@ef the
requisite sum and the imposition Of a
duty on junlzs, which win constitute a
tax on international navigation, and
taking over Of some of the nkin tprO-
vincial transit duties)
On the other hand, the United states
and Great Britain decline to agree TO
an increase of the customs duties, but
they don't appear to have presented a
counter proposition. The fact that the
United States and Great Britain have
Joined hands on this question has
caused surprise here. It was hoped the
United States would stand with France
and Russia. The result viii be to
greatly pFotract the negotiations
