SETTLEMENT WITH CHINA.
Particulars of the Protocol Closing
the Negotiations.

final protocol closing the negotiations
at Pekin between the Chinese plenipoten-
tiaries and the representatives Of the pow
ers, as submitted by Special Commissioner
Rockhill to the State Department, is a
long document consisting of twelve distinct
articles. In general terms these recite the
measures taken by China to satisfy the
powers for the Boxer outbreak and the as
sassination Of the German minister such as
the dispatch Of the embassy to China; the
promise to erect a monument to the mem
ory OF Won Ketteler and memorial arch
(work upon which has already begun; and
the inf1iction Of various punishments upon
the Chinese officials who were characterized
as the principal authors of the outrages
and the crimes committed against the for
eign governments and their nationals. Char
acteristic Chinese methods appear In the pos
thumous degradation of off1cia Is, and the
rehabilitation Of the memory OF others
who protested against the outrageous
breeches Of international law and were
therefore put to death. Likewise the proto-
col shows that reparation was made for
the assassination of the japanese chan
cellor of legation by a special commission
to Japan, and 1t appears that the Chinese
government already has erected expiratory
monuments in each of the foreign or in
ternational cemeteries which were desc
Grated.
Other articles prohibit the Importation
OF arms or ammunition or material for
their manufacture, and this decree may be
renewed every two years. Article pro-
vides for the total indemnity of 10000 600
taels, with full particulars of the method
OF amortization and distribution among the
powers, each of which is to be represented
by delegate on the commission of bankers
to receive the interest. The Chinese gov
ernment undertakes to deliver to the Doyen
of the corps at Pekin a bond for the lump
sum, which Is to be divided into fractional
bonds. This same article provided for the
conversion Of ad valorem into specific du-
ties, and the improvement of the rivers
Pei and Whangpoo at the joint expense of
the foreign interests and China.
Article 10 looks to the future, prohibiting
Chinese membership in any anti-foreign
society under pain OF death: prohibiting ex-
aminations in cities where foreigners were
massacred and providing for the dismissal
OF governors who hereafter permit anti
foreign troubles. The last article trans
forms the tsung II yamen into a ministry
Of foreign affairs under the name of Wal wu
Pu. which takes precedence over the six
other ministers of state.

OF PRECIOUS METALS.
United States Leads fn Holdings of
Gold and Silver

Director Roberts Of the mint has pre-
pared a statement showing the production
of the precious metals for the calendar year
of 1900. II shows that the production of
gold in the world was L. 4JT 2S7 ounces. OF
the value of S2J6, 514, 700 a new loss in value
of $4,000, 200 from 1899 the loss was main
ly in the Transvaal field. South Africa. and
due to the war. The production Of South
Africa in 1899 was of the value of s73 277.-
100 and in 1900 of the value of s961I 900.
The principal gains were sSIlS.ooo in the
United States, and S6.6oe.OOO in Canada.
The United States again heads the list
In the United States the principal gains
We're by Alaska, Arizona, Colorado ana
Utah.
The silver outputs of the world amounted
to LIS, 136 1876 fine ounces, the largest ever
known. 1t exceeds the product of 1899 by
Ii, ,5f3 ounces. The United States again
leads all other producers with light ex-
cess over Mexico.
There was important advance in the
price of silver during the year. from 59.l
cents per ounce in January 10 66.3 cents in
the last month Of the year. The chief fac
tor In the rise was the purchase for the ac-
count of the government of India. Silver
rupees still constitute the common currency
of India, and to supply the demand the gov
ernment gives rupees in exchange for gold
Sovereigns, at the rate of fifteen rupees to
the sovereign. Under this policy the gov
ernment reports outlay for it's fiscal
year ended March 81, 1901, of 6o33 600
pounds sterling, which at the average value
of the year would make the purchases
amount to nearly 10000. 600 ounces. This
would seem to restore India to somewhere
near her old position as a customer for sill
yer.
The value of gold in countries producing
the largest amounts is follows:
United States. s19, III 900: Mexico. $500
600; Canada and Newfoundland. s2f.930.-
100: Africa, s9.671.700; Australasia. s74 .26O,-
900; Russia. $40, Ia. 300; Austria Hungary,
81. 141 200; Colombia, s1.S09500: Brazil, $3,-
800, 800; Venezuela, 81. 0S9 800: British Gui-
ana, 81 OBS, 800: French Guiana, s.. 241.3o0;
Peru. s1,OS5,200; China, s5.514.i0O; Corea,
$4,000, 900; British India, 81 433. 500.
The commercial value OF silver in coun-
tries producing the largest amounts is as
follows:
United States. s35. 741. 100; Mexico s35.611.-
400: Canada and Newfoundland, s2,IJo.2oo;
