PROGRAM Of
Germany, France and Russia Make Proposals

Regarding the Manner of Treating the Celestial Kingdom-Mr. 'Conger

Tlte State Department bad mo hooih
disposed of one of thsse proMiJitious
today, liy delivering a response "to the
t;prninn (.overnnient, that It was con-
froutetl by an ever more important
p:DiolUon submitted by the , French
tioverumeur, and' this was within a
half hour formally seconded by the
Russian ilovemnient.
The answer to Germany covered th
subject of pimlxlilug Chinese subjects,
and made known that the ' I'ulted
States bad "Instructed Minister Conger
aloug the liues suggested by. Oeimany.
These Instructions .look toward secur
ing the names of the Krsons deserving
chastisement; also, whether the pun-

lshment .accord with the gravity of

manner he IJniteil States ;anl ttlici
Po,wers are to 1k, axured that -satis
factory punlslimetrt is rnfli-tel. Aside
from these sHH-ine purposes of vth
note, it Is ieg;irded as imiMirtant clilcf

' The Franf-o-l!nstan iwopoSal takes

M.. Thiol tautv bawled the projiosHjon
to Secretary Hay shortly after noon
ttMtay. and held a hrief conference con -
ciTning it. A lialf liour. later. M. Do
V;i limit, -the, Russian charge, arrived
at the State Department aud hamled
to Mr. Hay a cable, expressing Rus
sia approval of the projswltions Just
submltled ty France. Hay gave no
formal answer "to t lie two eouiinunki
tions, as 4 hey, will go first to the Pres
Ident at Canton. j
The Franco-RusKlan prpjtosition Is
nnder four heads, namely: : Firsts pun
Ishment of the guilty parlies; second
tTtcrdictlon of the. shipment of arms
into. China:, third, the payment of an
indemnity tto the Powers, and, fourth,
a . sufficient guaranu-e for jm future
In addition he siurgetloii 4s made for
the establishment of .a permanent
Ix'gatlon guard at Pekin; for the raz
Ing of. the -Taku forts, and for the
maintenance of a lhte of communica
tion tietween : Pekin and the sea.
The Impression here, In advauce of
action on these prcjosltious by bur.
liovernment. is. (that tliey contain
nothing essentially unfitting them "to
be subjects of consideration In , tho
final settlement. The diffleulty which
Is likely to arise lies 1n tlie iL-icng
of proper Hmhatlons oiou tlie scoie
of each head. . J t
What tlie United Htates t.oTemment
particularly desires to avoid. 4s the
entering Into a program that leans in
any manner toward tl maintenance
of a fojt-lold on Chinese soil, aud if
