form Of the coinage, which is causing
no end of disturbance at Manila. The

construction of railways are also i'm
portant subjects which will soon be
taken up.

San Francisco, Feb. 26. So far as
can be a~scertained from reliable data
1913 lives were lost in the wreck of h
Pacific Mail steamer Rio de Jeneiro.
Fishermen early Saturday morning
found a packet containing the papers
of Purser Rooney. Among them was
the passenger list and a bunch of can
celled passenger tickets. and as there
were names on the list whose canseled
passenger tickets did not appear among
those recovered it is assumed that they
laid over either at Yokahoma, Kobe or
Honolulu. That they were not on the
vessel at the time it went down is GER
tain.

place of Mr.. Conger, who a been

Rockhill protested against the seizure
of any private property for this pur-
pose without payment. The question.
of the provincial officials whose pun
ishment will be demanded was also
discussed, but no definite action was
taken owing to the facts that the list
of these officials which is being pre-
pared by the different ministers is not
yet complete.

The British refused to allow the fine

from the German authorities. The
Chinese commissioners are worried
over the Manchurian situation, the
court refusing to ratify the agreement
made with Russia. They say that the

IA Hung Chang Requests Japanese
to Deliver Up Ying Men and Chao
tdon-When Omcial Confirmation
La Received Of the Execution of
These Two China Will Have Com.
piled With All the Demands of
the Powers.

Pekin, Feb. 26.-Full texts Of the i'm
perial edict regarding punishment were
sent last evening to the ministers OF the
powers, identical with the official re-
port of the contents of the edict cabled
to the Associated Press. The ministers
say there is a little confusion with
reference to strangulation and suicide,
but thai this is not important.
Ii Hung Chang received a bulletin
announcing the sentences which could
be best carried into effect by h board
of punishment, and he requested the
Japanese to deliver Wing Men ana
Chao Shu Chiao in order that the SEN
fences in their cases might be executed
to-day in conformity with the edict,
but the Japanese considered the notice
200 short and have delayed the en-
forcement Of the penalties until to-
morrow in order nat the ministers OF
the powers might send representatives
as they desire. 1t is also intended to
guard the men at the place of eXecu-
ton SO as to prevent suicide or escape.
When official confirmation, duly cert1-
fed by high officers of state, of the SEN
fences of death upon the others n
have been received and these two nave
been executed, China will have practi-
cally complied with the terms demand
ed by the powers, as h has already
agreed to issue edicts prepared by the
ministers of the powers for the cessa-
ton Of examinations and regarding the
responsibilities of viceroys and gov
ernors.
Prince Chun, the emperor's brother,
will soon go to Berlin to express Chi
mas regrets for the murder of Baron
Won Ketteler. He say China has now
accepted to the uttermost and also
performed everything required by the
powers, except the payment of the in
IDENTITIES, the amount of which has
not been decided. He thinks arrange
ments should be made for h evacua-
ton Of Pekin in order to enable the
court to return. He says he believes
no nation in history ever complied with
a series Of terms more quickly and
more completely.
No official announcement has been
made of the abandonment of the pro-
posed expedition into the interior, u
it is not likely that any further prepar-
atoms will be made. The foreign en-
voys feel thai the proposal was a mas
ter stroke and caused the settlement OF
what might have been a protracted al
fair.
