Powers to Divide.

Berlin, May 22,-It Is authoritative
ly announced that the powers will
agree to require the present Chinese
import duties to be paid in gold, which
Is equivalent to Doubling the duaes.
The same payment will also probably
be required in the case of salt and the
opium tax. Germany Is apparently
averse to interfering with the likin du,
ties, since they are too complicated,
requiring too much administrative
machinery and too much mixing in the
international affairs of China. ON.
cials here admit that the powers are
likely to divide into two groups upon
the method of settlement,

that his troops will not leave Pekihg

Instructions Sent Commissioner Rock.
hill rs TO American Indemnity.
OUTCOME OF A CABINET MEETING.
Powers Also to Be Urged to Reduce
Their Demands - Won Walder-
see to the Chinese Court.
Russia and Germany.

San Francisco, May 22-An import.
ant meeting of the president and his
cabinet was held here. at which mes
sages from Commissioner Rockhill
were considered and the Chinese in
demnity question discussed. Bbe. to-
tai demand of the powers amount to
967,000,000, of which the American
demand constitutes $e5,000.000. Word
was sent to Commissioner Rockhill
to do his utmost to reduce the demand
of the powers and to show the good
faith of this country to offer to cut the
American indemnity one-half. The
powers are demanding bonds bearing
6 per cent interest. The United States,
through the president and his cabinet,
has instructed Commissioner Rock
hill to accept bonds bearing 3 per
cent interest. with no commission to
agents for negotiating the bonds.
There is some question as to the
form of guarantee for the bonds.
Some of the powers are demanding
customs security.
The president has constantly en-
deavored to moderate the demands of
the powers to an amount which China
might pay without financial ruin or
territorial dismemberment. He has
thought that $200.O0O.000 was the
maximum amount indicated by the
best authorities consulted. and he has
proved the willingness Of the govern
ment to make every sacrifice in the
interest of the integrity of China and
the restoration of normal relations by
cutting down our already moderate
claim one-half II other powers would
make proportionate reduction. These
propositions have not been accepted
by the other governments, though
Great Britain has shown a disposition
to considerate treatment of the
matter.
Secretary Hay has abandoned his
idea Of returning to Washington i'm
mediately. II has been definitely set
tied that all members of the cabinet
shall remain here until the departure
of the president. Meanwhile official
business will be transacted in the
same manner as though the members
of the presidential party were at their
desks in Washington.

EXTRA SESSION
FOR CONGRESS
TO DECIDE PORTO RICAN AND
PHILIPPINE QUESTIONS
URGENT NEED.

New York Jan. So.-A special to the
World from Washington says:
President Mckinley said to several
callers that the only question waning
was whether he would issue the call for
an extra session of congress before or
after his second term begins on March L.
The action of the United States su-
preme court in announcing that it would
take a recess until Feb. II, when it would
meet, hand down decisions and adjourn
for another two weeks, was construed to
indicate an extra session OF congress.
The court usually takes this two weeks
for recess in February. 1t is suimised
that the long recess now is for the pur-
pose of giving the justices a chance to
devote their time to the study of Porto
Rico and Philippine cases that they may
render the decisions by March d..
Mr.. Mckinley said to one of his friends
that an extra session would be called for
Philippine legislation no matter what tn
decision of the supreme court might be.
