roys who after the death Of ii Hung
Chang have charge Of the negotiations

In the document II is stated that the
United States and Great Britain are
willing to accept payments on the in
demnity in silver, while Russia and
France suggest that Import duties be
collected in gold, and Japan has not
taken any decided position. Chlna's
revenues, It is further stated, amount
annually to 100000 taels, Of which
100000 are set apart for the payment
Of the debt The remaining 10000, 900

tive purposes of 80 provinces.

powers, II IL pointed out, know the

CUBAN ANNEXATION.

According TO adyices from Cuba,
movement Is on foot there the purpos
OF which is the ultimate annexation o
Cuba to the United States. The suga
planters are said to have taken tn
lead. Their purpose is 20 educate tn
Ignorant classes. on the advantage
of annexation, and to convince then
that that policy IL the best for the Is
land. The sugar planters, II appears
have always been In favor Of anneXa'
ton in the hope Of obtaining free trade
in this country.
It is not impossible that the propa-
ganda In cuba may result IN a great
number Of converts to the annexation
doctrine there, particularly II the
financial troubles Of the new republic
are not settled IN due time. General

stated that if cuba fails 20 find q

But the sugar planters Of cuba will
meet determined opposition among the
sugar planters OF this country, These
have endeayored to demonstrate that
even a 20 per cent reduction in the
present tariff would ruin American
sugar growers and makers The tobacco
planters take the same view relative to
the product In which they are interest
ed. Under the circumstances, It Is not
conceivable that Cuban annexatonists
would find a smooth road In this coun-
try for their project 1t is probably
true that this country in insisting
upon the adoption OF the Plat amend
ment, placed itself under moral obliga-
tion to extend a helping hand to the
Cubans In their first efforts to re-estab-
llsh their industries, but at present
