IS WILLING TO PAY.
Further Details of China's Reply
to the Ministers.

Picking, 14.-The answer of
China to the statement of the minis
tiers of the foreign powers as to the
losses sustained by nations and indi-
yiduals in China has been received.
The answer commences with an APP
peal to mercy, saying that the coun-
try is impoverished. The answer ex-
plains that the utmost China can offer
is 100000 taels annually for the next
80 years. This amount will be derived
as follows: From salt, 100000 taels;
from the lil1in tax, 100000, and from
native customs, 100000. The com
munication further asserts that were
this done it would leave the country
unable to meet the expenses of gov
eminent without assistance. 1t re-
quested that the foreign customs be
increased one-third and the receipts
therefrom to be given to China for
the purpose of government. The min
listers refuse to discuss this answer
until it has been considered by them
in meeting.
y The Chinese reply is long, and it
may be said, on first reading, proves
more satisfactory to the majority of
the ministers than they had expected.
The first paragraph states that China
has not the slightest intention of try
ing to escape from the payment of her
just obligations; that she is pledged
to pay all the legitimate expenses of
the allies and all damages actually in
Cured by foreigners during the recent
troubles, and will do so.
Satisfies Germany.
Berlin, May IS. = The news that
China agrees to the payment Of the
indemnities demanded is received here
with general approval, both in Off
cial circles and privately, insomuch
that all Germany desires is to wind
up the China campaign. 1t is under
stood that the proposal to extend the
payments over a period of 80 years
meets with a qualified assent.
ROckhin Sends News.
Washington, May 15.-A cablegram
from Mr.. RockhiIl, our special COM
missioner at Picking, received at the
state department Tuesday, mentions
the receipt by the ministers of the re-
Spouse of the Chinese ENJOYS to the
ministers demands for indemnity.
The dispatch indicates briefly that the
Chinese represent that an annual pay
ment of $1O,0O0,0OO is the full extent
of their power to pay on indemnity
account. 1t will take 80 years to dis
charge the debt at that rate, without
interest. Mr.. Rockhill makes no men
ton Of the subject of interest, nor
does he touch upon the means by
which the money is to be raised by
China, or say who is to guarantee a
loan necessary to be made. 1t APP
pears that the Chinese feel themselves
obliged to submit to the powers in
this question of indemnity, as in all
other things, and though realizing
their own inability to. assume this in
debtedness of 450,0oo,0oO tacIs, they
feel obliged to make The effort. Mr..
