Foreign Ministers Will Ask for
 45O,OO0,0OO TeaIs
EARLY REPLY IS EXPECTED
1t Is Considered Likely That the Pow CTS Will Assent to Some Such Measure In Return for Con-
 sessions From China.

Pekin. May s.-The foreign ministers to- day decided to address collective note to the Chinese government informing it that joint indemnity of 45o, 900 taels would be demanded, and asking what method of payment is proposed. A reply is expected at the end of the week, which will probably propose to meet the indem- nity by raising the customs tariff.
 It Is considered likely that the powers will assent to some such measure in re- turn for concessions on the part of Chi na in the shape of a total abolition of the lilkin, the placing of import duties on a gold basis, really free navigation of Chi nese waters, and the removal of impedi- ments to navigation and the tax at Woo Sung.
 The ministers were unable to agree as to the desirability of opening the whole empire to trade and residence, some of them holding that 1t would be asking China to assume the great responsibility and under the present system of govern ment 1t would be impossible to guarantee the safety of the numerous foreigners who would flock into the interior If the empire were opened.

KRUGER IS WELCOME.
Story That President Would Not See
 Him Is Denied.

New York, May 1.-The denial in posi- tive terms in official circles that the Pres ident stated to anybody claiming to rep represent Dom Paul Kruger that he would not receive him at the White House was made in a way says a special to the Tribune from Washington, which seems to indicate that the President has been communicated with on this subject since he left Washington and desired 1t to become known that he Is being onisrepre- scented In this matter. Tn point of fact, various persons authorized to speak for the President declare that on more than one occasion when the subject has been referred to in his presence, the President has said that he would be glad to receive MT. Kruger on the same terms and with the same hospitality as he receives other distinguished foreigners.
 This could be done without compromis- ing the government in any way It Is pointed cut that when the Boer envoys were in Washington a year ago they were treated with marked courtesy and con- sideration by the President and every member of his cabinet with whom they came in contact. It Is pointed out that if ex-President Kruger comes here he will appear in a strictly private capacity, not being invested even with the official char acter with which the Boer envoys were clothed and that therefore the President would have no possible reason for refus- ing to meet him.

 Dangerous Paths.

Allen were the guests of honor The future of fusion was the theme of the evening, and the expressions were unanimously in favor of its continuance.
 The hall was decorated with United States flags and portraits of Peter Coop CT, Jefferson and Bryan.
 MT. Bryan spoke upon Fusion" urging its continuance in the following words:
 Fusion as we have had 1t in Nebraska fig cooperation between the reform forces without the loss of party identity or the surrender of party organization.
 "Fusion Is the open and honest plan of cooperation. The middfe-of-the-roadp poll icy has twice been the secret and dishon- est method of CO., operation. I believe In the open and honest method, and shall continue to advocate 1t so long as the al- lies agree upon paramount issues.
 ''The Republican party has settled no Issues Every year carries 1t further from right principles and into more dan gerous paths. All friends of free gov ernment and equal rights must fight to- gether against the common enemy until the country is rescued from putocratic tendencies and posterity is saved from the retrbution which always follows wrong doing. whether committed by indi- viduals, parties or nations
 J. J. Poyntz. one of the leaders of Ne braska Populism. advised fusion. but thought the Populists should hold them selves somewhat aloof until the reorgani- zation plan of the Democratic party be- came more apparent.
 Ex-Governor Poynter said the Populist organization must and shall be main tained in order that the friends of the people may have something to cling to in case Democracy goes back to It's gold cor poration principles.

THE EASTMAN CASE.
Defendant Says He Never Harbored
 Feeling Against Grogan.

Cambridge, Mass, May 7.-Interest in the Eastman murder trial was enhanced today by the fact that Mrs. Eastman, wife of the defendant. was on the stand most of the forenoon. She was visibly affected by the minute examination as to incidents preceding the tragedy and in regard to statements made by previous witnesses. At times she wept.
 Mrs Eastman said she did not remem- Der any incident as that related by Mrs. Grogan, ST., wh& testified that Eastman had said that Gfogan's days were num- bered. Witness never said that Eastman had been drinking, nor had she ever heard Mrs. Grogan, Jr., say he had been drink sAng,
 Mrs. Eastman also testified that in June the lock on the tomb containing Grogan's body had been tempered with, but no one had asked permission to open the tomb.

 He related the incidents of large prac- LlCo on the morning or July I, Ol OlIliuS and going to the swimming races in com pany with Grogan.
 Eastman said he found the races slow and started hack home with his wife He denies that he urged Grogan to return with him, but said Grogan overlook him on the way home. Eastman could not tell whether it was he or Grogan who suggested a resumption of target shoot ing.
 In the main Eastman's story of the shooting of Grogan was as it has been re- peated by witnesses during the trialswho heard Eastman's statement immediately after the event He said that his recoi- lection of what had happened after he and ~Grogan clinched was very indistinct. ssFhere was,'' he said, "a struggle fer possession of the gun. There was con- fusion, exclamations noise and cries. and Grogan burst out with something like Damn 1t, I'm shot Finally I got pos session of the revolver after a long strug gle and Grogan was brought to his knees. do not know exactly what han pened after that because of the fright and horror and of the agonized cries I cried out to him to let go, while on his part he said in the most agonized tones, oh. oh, oh
 "I next remember that we were running and that we came together again for other struggle. Some weapon, I don't know what. lay on the ground and tried to kick 1t out of the way
 Eastman testified that he had never en- tertained a feeling of malice or jealousy toward Grogan and had never had any. thought of injuring him or any human being.

kings Make Too Good Targets.

Since A. B. Randle of Congress Heights travelled in Europe last summer and met the notables across the water he has not only cherished Congressional boom from his home State of Mississippi but is able to turn a story occasionally about rayolty, says the Washington Post.
 'while we were up in Northern France last summer" says he during a curbstone conversation, T met Col. Tom Ochiltree of Texas. King Leopold of Belgium was likewise at the resort and had been occu- pying a seat near the Texan in the din- ing room.
 "'I had to request the waiter to give me a seat in the opposite corner of the room, Colonel Ochiltree said to me one day.
 And what is that for?' asked him, in some surprise.
 "'Oh, the King has been choosing a seat nearer and nearer to me every day. replied the colonel. You know, they have just killed a King down in Italy, and want to be entirely out of range.

M'GOVERN BEFORE
 THE COMMISSION
Explains Fixing of Rates by the Southern Classification
 Committee

Washington, May 1.-The Industrial Commission today began its May meeting with P J. McGovern of Atlanta. chair man of the Southern Classification Com mittee. MT. McGovern stated there were forty-two rail and steamship lines in the association, and 1t covers the territory south of the Potomac and the Ohio rivers and east of the Mississippi river. He said the organization had been effected in 1899. and he contended that except in the items of iron and steel the advance in transportation rates has been technical rather than real. He declared the com mittee had no purpose of fixing rates on carload lots so as to build up the jobbing trade of the south at the expense of out side points.
 Explaining the changes in classification since the matter had been placed in the hands of his committee, MT. McGovern said it had been necessary to remove many incongruties, and it had been nec- essary to remove many of them, and in cases in which there had been advances the prevailing extraordinary conditions. The general advance In price of railway materials and supplies for instance, had been an influential factor. In many other cases the previous ratings had been un- reasonably low. For these reasons there had been three different revisions of the classifications since 1899. The rate on iron and steel had been materially increased. but MT. McGovern contended that there had been no general advance. He referred to the charge made from New York and elsewhere that there had been an increase in the rates on about 1700 articles. MT. Mo- Govern said that the assertion had grown out of the fact that the committee had abolished the carriers risk column in the classification sheet, putting all articles in the limited liability list. and making an advance of 20 per cent where the common law liability bills of lading were issued. This, he contended, was an advance. be- cause while the common law guarantee could be secured under the old system without extra charge. 1t was not demand ed in one case out of a hundred. On the other hand there had been reductions in the rates on other articles, which were far more radical than these advances were
