PLAN PROPOSED BY AMERICA Ckloetc Forces li Mindiorli Reported to Be Joining Boxen - Rev. Ament Ex plain Stories of His Loot In,. WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-At the In stance of the United States govern nwnt the powers have accepted the principle that no further Individual con cession of territory In China shall be nought or obtained by any one power without International assent. So, hereafter, if any one nation seeks to secure room for its Individual set tloment or like privileges In ports r elsewhere in China, the application must he approved by the other pow ers before the Chinese government will be permitted to assent even it it de sires it so. There is another and very important point of agreement, which Is that the present In not the most opportune time for asking concessions. PRBSHNT STATUS UNCERTAIN. WASHINGTON. Feb. 21. It is still uncertain whether Minister Conger's message stating that China had agreed to the demands of the powers marks the passage of this Important phase of the Chinese question, relative to pun lKhm.'nt, an 1 the taking up of the ques tion of Indemnity and guarantees. All depends upon whether the foreign ministers at. Pekln have determined that the sentences must be executed a. preliminary tofurther progress In negotiations. It is surmised here that such Is the case, though it Is regarded as an unnecessary delay in negotia tions, which it is apparent to the offi cial mind must consume many weeks before the single question of Indemni ties can be cleared away. COURT ISSUES EDICT. PEKIN. Feb. 21. Prince Chlng and Li Hung Chang have received tele graphic instructions from the court to notify the ministers of the powers that an edict has been issued regarding the punhments of Chines? offiVals. confirmatory of the demands by the n.inifters as follows: "General Tung Fuh Slang, to be de graded &nd deprived of his rank "Prince Tuan and Duke Lan. to be discrraced and exiled. "Prince Chuapg. Ting Nien and Chao Shu Olao. to commit suicide. "Hsu Chen Tu, Tu Hsein and Ki Hain, to he beheaded." This is not exactly what the minis ters demanded, but it is considered ad visable to agree to It. as the demand for lives has been agreed to except In the case of General Tung Fuh Slang, whom the court is powerless to molest. There Is a private understanding that his life will b? claimed when it is pos sible. The European and Chinese secretar ies of legations and others who have lived In China for years, consider that China has gained a victory, as the only man the court has to behead is Tu Hseln. The other two are In the hands of the Japanese, and could be beheaded when their execution Is want ed. Suicide is no disgrace whatever In Hie eyes of the Chinese. No one be lieves General Tung Fuh Siang will ever suffer punishment. Peo ple here say Chinese imperial edicts are very unstable documents, especial ly when private edicts to the executive i ffiVinls accompany the public, edict. A recent decree ordered all the Indict ed officials to commit suicide, yet. It is i-vident a secret edict was sent in structing the persons implicated not to obey. What proof, it is asked. Is there now that the terms of the decree will i V carried out? ' Prince Cling is srreatly atermed at the preparations for the military ex pedition into the Interior. He asks why they are rot countermanded, now that China has agreed to the demands of the powers, Instead of which the preparations continue. J. Fowler, the United States consul lit Che Foo, haa sent Minister Conger a proclamation, issued by Yuen Shi Kai, the governor of the province of Shan Tung, giving protection to the mission aries, and offering a reward of 200 ta.-ls for the capture of any of the ring leaders of the recent disturbances, and offering a reward of 100 taels for the capture of others than those actually committing outrages. The civil and military authorities' will be held strict ly accountable for the good order of th.-ir districts. When outrages are committed, they will be disgraced and ivporied to the throne. Where no oth er outrages .'occur for three years,. the civil anl military authorities will be rewarded by a meYit tablet and button.

The pr.HVfdlnga have long been anticipated. Within the past thlrty-stx h urs a i lawyer, who is looked upon as the lead er of the divorve-court bar, has been r. tained In behalf of the petitioner. The case cannot be aired In court ii any rate for some months, and pos sibly not before autumn, and the friends of the Just-married duke may j succeed in 'oinpnimlslng the mat- iter and preventing a trial.

Major Atherton ought to have sue-, eee-ded to the command of the Twelfth ngiment when Its late colonel, the Earl of Airlie. was killed in South Africa in June last, but he was passed over in favor of Colonel P.
