QUESTION OF DAMAGE.

Chinese Government.

Chinese Government.
Oyster Bay. Aug. 2e.-It was an
nOunced here by President Roosevelt
that the emperor of China had can
celled the rights and concession of
the Canton Hankow railroad, and
that, as an indemnity, the Chinese
government would pay to the owners
of the road the American China De
velopment company, the sum of So
80, 600.

nation of the government of China to
cancel the franchise was reached at
the conference yesterday between
President Roosevelt and Mr.. Morgan.
Official Statement.
The announcement was issued in the
form of the following Official state
meHt;
After full discussion with Mr.. Nor
gan it was decided to accept the offer
of the Chinese government to pay
collation. Of the contract for the build
ing Of the HankowCanton railway.
The imperial Chinese government hav-
ing cancelled the contract and at the
same time expressed a willingness to
pay any damage, il left only the Ques-
ton of the indemnity, and a satisfac-
tory amount having been offered, the
stockholders have agreed to accept the
terms.
No Alternative.
Mr. Morgan has consulted with the
administration and shown every de-
sire to do what American interests in
the orient demanded and only con-
scented 10 the arrangement proposed
by the Chinese government in view of
the fact that the attitude of the
Chinese government rendered il obVi-
Gus that there was no other course
which he could take with due regard
to the interest of the stockholders he
represented. He could not finally de-
eide until he had laid the fact before
the president, and the president had
stated that as far as he could see. no
other course was open than to accept
the offer"
