BY OUR MINISTER
STATE DEPARTMENT INFORMED
THAT CHINA HAS AGREED
TO ALL DEMANDS.
QUESTION OF INDEMNITY NOW

Believed at Washington That This
Matter Will Not Be Taken Up Unit
the Punishments Agreed on Have
Been Carried out-Foreigners ir
Peking Say the Settlement Is a Vic
tory for the Chinese.
Washington, Feb. pa cablegram
has been received at the state depart
ment from Minister Conger' stating
that the Chinese plenipotentiaries
have informed the foreign ministers
that the emperor has agreed to all
the punishments named in his icon.
ger's) telegram of Feb. 6 last.
The persons named in the telegram
referred to, with the punishment pre-
scrIbed, were as follows:>
For Princes Tuan and Ian, degra-
dation and exile. The death penalty
for Yu Hsien, Chih Liu and Hsu-Sheng-
Yu, the two latter being prisoners OF
the japanese. Posthumous honors for
the four members of the tsung-li-ya-
men who were executed last summer
by the Chinese because of their inter-
cession for the foreigners. The great
difficulty in the way of executing Cen
eral ng-Fu-Hsiang being recog-
nized by the ministers, it was agreed
that some punishment to be determir-
ed on later should be administered to
him when it was possible to do so.
A subsequent message from Minis.
ter Conger includes in the punishment
list (and it is understood here that
they are also included in the emperor's
promise just given) Chuang, who is to
be executed; Chaio- Shu-Chaio, Wing
Men, vi Hsiu and Hsu- Cheng and Yu,
who are to be punished in some meth
cd yet to be determined.
It is still uncertain whether Mr. Con-
gers message marks the passage of
this important phase of the Chinese
question relative to punishments and
the taking up of the questions of in
demnity and guarantees. ALI depends
upon whether the foreign ministers
at Picking have determined that the
sentences above described must be
executed as preliminary to further
in the negotiations. It is
surmised here that such is the case,
though it is regarded as unnecessary
delay in the negotiations, which it is
to the official mind must
consume many weeks before the sin
gle question Of indemnities can be
cleared away. Apprehension on this
score is based upon reports, unofficial
but creditable, indicating that the
purpose Of the Germans to claim in
IDENTITIES which. both in amount and
in the method of payment, would be
far beyond the ability of the Chinese
to meet, unless the just claims Of the
other powers are ignored.

VICTORY FOR CHINESE.

Foreigners at Peking So Consider The
Settlement.
Picking, Feb. 22.-Prince Ching and
Ii Hung Chang have received tele
graphic instructions from the court
to notify the ministers Of the powers
that an edict has been issued regard
ing the punishments Of Chinese Off
Gals, confirmatory of the demands
made by the ministers as follows:
General Tung Fun Sian, to be de.
graded and deprived of his rank.
Prince Tuan and Duke Ian, to be
disgraced and exiled.
prince Chuang, Ying Men and
Chao Shu Chiao, to commit suicide.
"Hsu Chen Yiu. Yu Hsien and XII
Hahn to be beheaded."
This is not exactly what the minis.
tiers demanded, but it is considered
advisable to agree to it, as the de.
mand for lives has been agreed to ex.
cept in the case of General Tung Fuh
Sian, whom the court is powerless to
modest.
There is a private understanding
that his life be claimed when it is pos.
sible.
The European and Chinese secreta.
ries of legations and others who lived
in China for years, consider that
China has gained a victory as the only
man the court has to behead is Yu
Hsian.
The other two are in the hands of
the Japanese and could be beheaded
when their execution is wanted. Sui.
eide is no disgrace whatever in the
eyes of the Chinese
No one believed that General Tuna
Hsu Sian will ever meet punishment.
Authorities here say that Chinese
edicts~ are very unstable documents.
especially at present. A recent de.
cree ordered all the indicated officials
to commit suicide, yet, it is evident a
secret edict was sent instructing the
persons implicated not to obey. What
proof, it is asked, is there now that
the term of the decree will be carried
out.

A powerful engine cannot run with
a weak boiler, and we can't keep up
the strain Of an active life with a
weak stomadh; neither can we stop
the human machine to make repairs.
If the stomach cannot digest enough
food to keep the body strong, such a
preparation as Kodol Dyspepsia cure
should be used. 1t digests what you
eat and it simply can't help but do
you good.-Hulburd & johnson.

point some one to succeed Judge Curlsl

that Judge Curler had been absent from

Governor Sadler this morning %
pointed Thomas Julian Judge of The
Second judicial District, vice Judge
Curler, who has been absent from Che
State for some time. The Governor
action is probably based upon Section
254S of the Statutes, which reads q
follows:
"a Judge Of the Supreme Court or Of
the District Court, should not absent
himself from this State for more than
consecutive days. A violation Of
the provisions Of this section shall work
forfeiture of such office"
The Gazette Of Aug. IL adds the fol-
Hon. I. V. Julian was seen this
