TO PROTECT CHINA

Pekln, April 16.-A plan for the
possible enlistment of American capl
tai In Manchuria was disclosed In Pc
kin yesterday by the premature publ.
cation Of a rescript issued n month
ago by which the throne grants Tang
Shao- VI, the governor Of Mukden
province. authority to grant loan
Of maximum Of 100000 taels for
the purpose of financing the admins
tration Of Manchuria.
This proposal Is understood hero
to be an attempt to negotiate that
portion of the Boxer indemnity which
the government of the United States
has proposed to cancel. 1t will also
ally the power and influence of tn,
United States for the conservation
of Manchuria to China. The plan II
question embraces the participation
of the powers who are partial credi
tors of China, such as Great Britain
France, Germany and Japan.
Its obvious purpose is to neutraliz,
the aggression Of Japan. to enforce
the terms of the Portsmouth treaty
to provide for the construction o
railroad communication and to safe
guard Mongolia, which already Is thu
scene OF contest between the inhul
ence of Russia and that OF Japan.
