MAY CANCEL LARGE DEBT
Proposed to Relinquish Indemnity
Claim Against China.

Washington, June 19.-President
Roosevelt has just made the most stu
pendous gift to China that the United
States or any other government has
ever made to a foreign nation.
Through Secretary Root he has mott
fed Sir Chentung Liang Cheng, the
Chinese minister, that, with the ap-
proval of congress, the United States
voluntarily will relinquish the differ
ence between the total of expenses in
CURED in the suppression Of the Boxer
revolt of 1900 and the amount which
China agreed to pay to this country.
The difference Is fixed officially at the
enormous figure of s27,000,000.
Beyond the mere generosity Of the
gift there are international aspects of
the presidents action which will be
promptly considered by foreign chan
cellories. In the first place the relin-
quishment of this debt establishes a
precedent for like action on the part
of Russia, Germany, France, japan and
Great Britain, each of which demand
ed indemnities far in excess of the
expenses actually incurred.

COMPLAINT OF OPERATORS
Only a Few Favorites Given Promised
Increase in Pay.


New York, June 19.-Charles P.
Neill, United States labor commits.
sioner, has arrived here from Wash
ington to investigate the threatened
strike of telegraphers against the
Western Union and Postal Telegraph
companies. 1t is stated that Mr.. Neill
will hear both sides of the controversy
and then report to President Roose-
welt.
The question at stake is the 10 per
cent increase in wages which the two
companies promised to give on March
| last. The two companies declare
emphatically that they did give the 10
per cent increase, while the teleg-
raphers contend that only few ia
yoritess received the increase, while
more than 80 per cent of the men are
getting even less shan they we're re-
ceiving March J.
The officials Of the Western Union
company will not talk on the subject,
beyond saving that there are no griev-
ances on the part of those employed
by the company. 1t was said on be
half of the company that there would
be no conference between the officials
of the company and the parties who
have manifested an interest In the
telegraphers' complaints. This would
not apply, however, to any investisa-
tion to be made by Commissioner

GOVERNMENT is SUSTAINED
French Chamber Approves Policy In
Wine Growers Revolt.

Paris, June 19.-The action of the
government in determining to prose
cute the agitators In the south of
France led to a lively debate In the
chamber of deputies, but after tu-
multuous session the cabinet secured
an indirect vote of confidence by the
large majority of 254
Premier Clemenceau refused to
agree to the immediate discussion or
an Interpolation on the subject of the
governments plans and demanded
that the motion be postponed until
June 26. In a speech which was fire.
quently interrupted by noisy protests
he declared that all means of concflia-
ton We're now exhausted and that as
chief of the government he was bound
to enforce respect for the law. The
committee at Argelliers had set itself
up in place of the central government.
If the chamber defeated the postpone
ment of the Interpolation he would
Immediately countermand the prose
cutions and the chamber would be
responsible for the grave conse-
quences.
The governments motion was finally
adopted amid wild excitement by 412
to 1873 votes.
Advices received here from Mar
bonnie, department of the Aude, show
that the situation there is worse than
at any time since the wine growers
movement first began. Dynamite has
been discovered on the railroads, in
some cases the tracks have been re-
moved, the telegraph lines have been
cut with the object of impeding the
arrival of troops and the revolted VII
layers have been pulling up the pave
ments and collecting materials for
barricades.
The excitement at NarbOnne and
other places in the South has in
creased dangerously owing to the an
nouncement of the activity of the gov
ernment and the agitation of the hot
heads.
