Legislative Action Necessary.

The State Department fully confirms the
statement of the Chinese minister, that it
is the intention of the President TO release
China from the payment of all but the
tual expenses to which the United States
was put by the Boxer uprising of 1900,
provided Congress shall give its consent.
The fact that the indemnity is being col
lected under the terms of a treaty makes
it impossible for the executive to act alone
In this matter. But upon the reassembling
of Congress next winter the President in
mis- annual message will recall the facts con-
nected with the assessment of the indem-
nifty and will suggest that the payment of
more than the amount actually expended
be RENTED.
By the terms of the treaty China was to
pay to the United States a sum slightly
less than S25.OO0,OO in annual nstallments
running through period or thlrty-n nine
years with interest So far there has oeen
this has been paid all of the claims or
American missionaries for property de-
stroyed and lives lost in the uprising.
amounting to about S2UO,OUO, ieaVlng Tree
on hand S4,0O0,O00.
A careful estimate has just been COM
pleted of the expense to which the United
States government was put by he military
operations in China, the naval expenses
and the losses suffered at American con-
sulates. These aggregate 100000, SO that
all of the indemnity that should really be
charged against China is $11.O0O,GO and
at the rate the payments have been made
recently it is expected that the total will
be met in the course of four or five years
more. The plan is to then give China a re-
lease in full.
Great Saving to China.
The saving to China is far greater than
would at first be supposed. for as heavy
interest was to be charged on the total
amount of the indemnity awarded to the
United States by the international COM
mission that met in Peking in 1900. it is
estimated that the total sum of money that
China would have been obliged to pay to
the United States in the course of the
thirty-nine years through which the pay
ments were to run would be no less than
$50, coo 600.
