WASHINGTON WAITING WASHINGTON, Jan. U. UP) The French debt aituation appeared to have reaolved itself again today into a waiting attitude on the part of the Washington government for possible further light on the suggestions aa to a refunding arrangement presented in the memorandum of French Finance. Minister Olementel. While examination of M. Clemen tel'a "personal and unofficial" com' munication to Ambassador Herrick has not altered the attitude here to accept it aa a hopeful sign it haa on the other hand, disclosed no concrete proposal for refunding the trench debt that might offer a definite foot hold for the launching of formal ne gotiations. It has, in fact, provided no elaboration of French view on the question beyond what already waa known to (Secretary Mellon through bia conversations with Ambassador Jusserand. With the possibility of more light being thrown on the situation by lur thcr advices from Ambassador Her rick, it waa believed any decision as to a formal request by the treasury aecretary for apecific detaila from M. elemental, on his suggestion would be held in abeyance. It was said definite ly at the atate department that the informal nature of tho French sug gestions did not warrant the calling of a special meeting of the American debt funding commission to tsko them up. , ployn of the department. Of this $K!i.25 was a shortage in rash that ould not be checked, but which it is believed is an overpayment to some one. The lloff estate may be called upon to pay this. The remainder represents checks, one drawn on the Sheridan State bank, two on the La fayette State bank and three on the First National bank of Merrill, Ore., that apparently were lost in transit and on which" the state ia out. An effort will be made to ascertain who owes the state for the aeveral amnuntB. Judge Harry II. Belt of Dallas has taken hia place ae a member rf the supreme court and Edward Oft trander aa a member of the public nervire commission to succeed New ton Mc,Coy.

OP) The sign ing away under duress by llsuan Tung, the boy emperor, of the empty title of emperor and the right to pre serve within the limited prceincta of the Forbidden City the pomp and ceremonies of the old Manehu court, brought to a final end the Ching dy nasty founded in 1614 by tho emperor onnn I bine. While the Manrhu reign actually ended with the abdication in behalf of the infant emperor as a result of the revolution in 1912, the foundera of tho republic agreed that members of the imperial family and the lesser nobility, by whom they were sur rounded, would bo permitted to retain their titles, their court ceremonials and generally would receive treatment in their retirement such aa is usually accorded to a foreign sovereign. A yearly allotment of $4,000,000 of the country's currency was to be mado for their support. A large portion of tlio old imperial precincts within the quarter known an tho Imperial City was set apart fur their exclus ive uso nnd residence, and there, a virtual prisoner, the young emperor haa grown to manhood. ( ' Terms Not Kept Tho terms of the agreement for favorahlo treatment, so far aa it con cerns the yearly payments, has long sinco become n dead letter, if it ever was kept. The imperial family today' inccs impovorisnmciit. The marriage of tho emperor two yenra ago, was probably tho smith of bis glory and marked his Inst emergence into the limelight of newspaper publicity until hia eviction by the Christian general, Feng Yu-lisinnff. The new reigning cabinet saw fit, according to Dr. C. T. Wang, the foreign minister, to rectify tho an omalous situation growing out of maintenance of mi imperial court within a republic. Accordingly, with out a word of warning. . mcents of uenerni r eng BWoopeu down upon the defenseless court; presented a new abdication document for tho em peror to aign; demanded the imperial acnls which hod been in possession of his fumily, represented by himself and nine predecessors for 1.S0 years, and forthwith expelled him from the only homo he ever had known, lie had to plead to ho allowed to send back for hia own and hia wife's clothing. Investigation Asked A commission haa been announced whoso duly it will bo to determine how much of the property sclied in the Imperial quarters belongs to the oiiBtrd Miuichiis, ami how much to tho stnlo. There are reports of tho existence of antiquities and docu ments of immense historical value which it ia proposed to place in a museum to be established for the purpose. In the fiilure tho ex-eui-peror, as plain Mr. I'll Yl, so desig nated In the regulations governing the investigating commission, may reside whero he will by tho letter of abdica tion agreement, but he must live whero tho guverninent authorities can keep an eyo on him since they reserve tho right to "safeguard" him.

While Mr. Stone will not leave the' department of justice until his noiu iastion ia confirmed by tbe oenut , usually In such eases a matter of rou tine, thought must be given immed iately by Mr. Coo.idge to tbe ap pointment of a . successor. All indica tions of an official nature are that he has not even reached any preliminary. conclusion, but iinmedintely after (no appointment ol Mr. Stone was an nounced, a dozen niines were beiug meotioued in connection with tbe of- i fice. Among these wete some of thosa mentioned at the tune Mr. Coolidge was seeking a successor to Mr. Una gherty including Arthur 1'.

Week, now solicitor general and wiia will become nctmg attorney general upon the retirement of Mr. Stone and of tho transfer of Curtis D. Wilbur, former chief justice of the supreme-court of California from the secretaryship of the navy to the de partment of justice. Tbe president decided upon !r. Stone in making bis first appointment tu the supreme court because of his confidence in tho attorney genera borne of long ncquulntance, starting with tne time when they wero collvgi mutes at Amherst; his belief that the attorney general was eminently fitted by education, experience and temper.i ment for the work of tj)i nation's highest court, nnd his satisfaction with hia work aa attorney general in the nine months ho has been in the cabinet.
