Paris, October %. From authoritative
sources the correspondent Of the Associated
Press has learned that France, Great Brit
ain and Germany have concluded an agree.
ment providing for the military evacuation
Of Shanghai by their sorces The negotia-
lions have also brought about an important
extension Of the open-door policy as urged
by Secretary Hay. The agreement affects
not only Shanghai, but the entire Yang Use
Kiang valley, which the powers are seeking
to develop for commercial purposes. The
date OF the evacuation is still open, but a
leading official Of the foreign office ex.
pressed the belief that II will undoubtedly
be accomplished by January /. About 1900
troops will participate IN the evacuation.
each power having furnished about an equal
number Of troops since the Chinese crisis
became acute France initiated the nego-
tiations, as 1t was felt that there was no
further need for maintaining military es.
tablishment at Shanghai. The FIRST stages
OF the negotiations resulted In an agree
ment on two points. The first was favora-
BILE 10 evacuation; the second was that in
case any power intended 10 resume the
military occupancy Of Shanghai the other
powers were equally entitled 70 resume It's
occupancy. Germany then proposed that
China be asked for assurances Of equality
OF treatment Of the powers, China gave
this assurance and the officials here say
this branch Of the agreement amounts to
an extension Of the open door policy In the
Yang Tse valley. Although the nature
Of the commercial equality Is not specified
the agreement is that the military and
other rights OF the powers shall be on an
equal footing The United States Is not a
direct party TO the negotL~ tons, but has
been fully advised q the Intentions Of the
three powers. At one stage OF the negota-
rious Secretary Hay advised Foreign Min.
lister Delcasse, through Ambassador Porter,
that the United States government was IN
full sympathy with the plan, aud hoped
for an early agreement on the subject The
officials here say the United states shares
in the benefits Of the agreement rs to the
equality Of treatment. The date Of evac-
uation Of Shanghai Is expected TO be set
tied in few days
