TOXIC. Sept. 1S.-The receipt of
Americas tentative proposals. upon
which it is expected to build a def

cussion and interest in the confer

of concessions, monopolies and the
extension of railways, including mat
ters pertaining 10 the Chinese East

Arouse Interest.
Particular interest has been
aroused by the suggestion TO discuss
the general issue Of commitments
relative to China ald Siberia. In
diplomatic circles It is thought that
the United States deems II advisa bic
TO bring about an examination of
all the engagements entered into
between China and the powers
whereby the powers have secured
rights and interests in China and
Siberia or have been entrusted with
definite undertakings in those coun-
tries. Such an examination would
have as its aim the prevention of
