QUESTION or SUCCESSION.
Now the Main Topic Of DeIiberatlon III
China.

Peking, Sept 4.-The question Of
the Manchu succession, native officials
assert, has today become the para
mount topic OF the deliberation at the.
summer palace. One of the ablest
foreign authorities says that more
urgent than constitution for China
Or the amalgamation Of the opposing
Chinese and Manchus is the question
Of an heir apparent, which the dowag-
#er empress, the greatest Of all Man.
chus closely Identifies with the con.
@tinuance and security Of the country.
The question has not been raised since
the time subsequent to the dowager's
deposing Of Prince Chun's son, Pu
Chun, in accordance with the protocol
OF 1901 when a majority Of the i'm
#perial clan reafirmed loyalty to Pu
Chun This action caused dangerous
scandal and was regarded as an af-
front to the powers, threatening a re
neWal of complications. a price was
placed On Chuns head, the clan was
denounced and its activity suppressed.
The urgency of the question Of the,
succession and the difficulty Of it's set
tlement is serious, owing to the in
flrmities Of the dowager empress, due
#fo old age, which are. complicated BY
threats Of apoplexy and also by the
condition of the emperor, who con-
stant1y is reported to be i'll. He is
said to be the victim of decline
which adds to the possibility OF an ac-
cident to the throne, other than that
feared from anarchists and revolu-
tiOnists.

& Tee OF examination. e,%
The Hague, Sept. 4.-General Hor-
ace Porter of the American delegation
to the peace conference led his pro-
posal for the collection of contractual
debts to practically unanimous ap-
prevail Tuesday by the committee of
examination and at the conclusion Of
the meeting he was the recipient Of
many congratulations upon the sue
cess Of his efforts. The Importance Of
this American proposition, it is pointed
out, lies in the principle which it es-
tablishes rather than in its practical
application, which may be very sell
dom.
General Porter met all the obiec-
tions raised with ready argument and
finally brought all the countries repre-
sented, debtor. as we'll as creditor
countries, into line with the sin1}a ex-
ception of Switzerland, which is naitl-
er debtor nor a. creditor country.
There is reason to believe, however,
that even the Swiss government will
sign the convention with reserve re-
gardlng the matter of jurisdiction

vote. in favor Of General Porter's pro-
posal for the reason that It establishes
obligatory arbitration in matters relat-
Ing to contractual debts, declared Ar

serves on the subject.
Only thirteen countries, Including
Brazil, Mexico and Argentine, were
represented on the committee of ex-
animation and General Porter's propo-
s1t1on as it has been modified must
be submitted for approval to p1enery
sitting of the committee Of arbitration,
upon which all the nations are repre-.
sented.
The Austro-Hungarian proposal In
the matter of obligatory arbitration
was practically wrecked by Tuesdays
