WRITES MIR. TAFT
REGENCY OF CHINESE EMPIRE
 SENDS LETTER.
Chfna's Ideas and Attitude Of Regent and Hfa- Advisers On Vital Questions Now Before
 the Empire.

Pekin. Feb. 25.-The regency of the empire has caused to be sent to Pre- sident- elect William H. Taft. a com muntcation in the form of a private letter in which its ideas and the atti- tude of the regent and his advisers on the most vital questions now before the empire are set forth.
 This communication is the first di- rect expression of the regents views on the various subjects touched on and 1t comes at time when 1t Is known that the regent is personally anxious regarding the interpretation by foreign powers of the recent dismissal from of flee of Grand Councillor Yuan Shi Kai and the American British and off1cial action following this step.
 The officials of the regency who com posed the letter to MT. Taft, lay em- phasis upon the fact. that the recent ministerial change was entirely fam fly and personal matter and that 1t does not signify any change in the in- ternal or. external policies of the em- pire; on the contrary. the government purposes vigorously to carry out re- form.
 The communication describes the consumption of opium as China's hu- initiation but 1t says the habit can be eradicated and that the United States Is helping to this end.
 Concerning Manchuria, the regency recites that the United States is fully cognizant of the recent proposals look ing to Japanese American agreement to help China in the government of this territory and 1t trusts in American aid. The regency expects Japan to with draw from Manchuria and continuing in this connection. the communication says lasting peace Is dependent upon the return of the Japanese to their own islands.
 Good relations between China and Japan are of paramount importance. The regency sees obstacles in the way of Japan quitting Korea but 1t enter tains the conviction that ultimately Japan will give up her foothold in both China and Korea.

TO STOP PRACTICE.
Payment Of Salaries To Commission Members Causes Discussion.

Payment Of Salaries To Commission
 Members Causes Discussion.
 Washington, Feb. 25.-The House of Representatives today took an import ant step towards putting an end to the payment of money either for salaries or expenses to members of any commits sion, council board or similar jury ap- pointed by the President when not spe- officially authorized by law.
 The prohibition was in the shape of sweeping amendment to the sundry civil appropriation bill offered by MT. Tawney. (Minnesota) which was adopted under a suspensinon of the rules.
 Mr. Tawney was somewhat caustic in his criticism of the practice which has prevailed. Recently he said. a cartload of answers to questions put by the "uplift" commission had been re- ceived at the census bureau for tabu- lation. He charged that clerks had been detailed to compare the report of the commission and said the report of that commission should never have been printed. All such work. he de- clared was without authority of law.

CIVIL SERVICE PENSIONS.
Much Impetus Given To Movement n
 House Committee.


 House Committee.
 Washington. Feb. 25--By agreeing on a favorable report on Representa- tive Gillett's civil service retirement bill, the house committee on civil ser vice reform has given much impetus to the~movement providing pensions for superannuated employes in this city of the classified service.
 It provides that reaching the age of retirement. an employe shall receive an annuity equal to 1 1-2 per cent of the entire compensation received by him during his entire service. Each employe would be required to set aside during his service sum sufficient, with compound interest. to create the annuity at the age of retirement.
 The age of retirement Is as follows:
 For railway postal clerks 60: letter carriers 65 and the remaining branches of the service, 70. The bill also pro- vides for the retention of employees whose services are considered of ad- vantage for two or four years after reaching the age of retirement. No employe, however. could be retained in service beyond the age of 70. com mencing with July 1. 1915
