WAS MILIDAY A LOOTER
Ohaffees Insinnatioiis Bring Ministers to
Lady McDonalds Defense
SAYS SHE TOOK ONLY A ROSE
There TVero Those With Her Who Swear
She Appropriated Nothing of Value
The Same Charge Against an American
Gentlemans Wife
NEW YORK May 25 A dispatch
to the Herald from Pekin says The
last general meeting of the diplomatic
corps was the scene of a more acute
phase of the controversy over looting
The question was raised by the diplo
mats friendly to Lady McDonald who
thinks a great injustice was done her
by the supposed reference to her in
one of General Chaffees letters upon
the subject of looting
Ministers of two European coun
tries arose successively and made
statements as to Lady McDonalds be
havior on the day of the first visit of
the allies to the Forbidden City which
were practically identical They were
with her throughout the day and de
clared that she left the palace without
any plunder except a yellow rose
plucked in the empress garden
But they say we did however
witness one scene of looting which
together with Lady McDonald we
tried but unsuccessfully to prevent
In the palace we met the wife of an
American accompanied by an Ameri
can curio dealec We suggested that
the reception was exclusively for the
members of the diplomatic corps but
she persisted in taking the curio deal
er whose expert opinion she wanted
upon some of the empress orna
ments
Reaching the pavilion the curio
dealer said Here I am informed
most valuable porcelain is concealed
In spite of the protests of Lady
McDonald and ourselves the wife of
the American tried to open the cup
boards Finally she called an Amer
ican soldier who pried a cupboard
open with his bayonet whereupon not
wishing to assist at a scene we could
not prevent we withdrew
The American representatives at the
meeting made no reply

HAY ON INDEMNITY
Says Government May Yet Present Ac-
ceptable Flan to Powers
SAN FRANCISCO Cal May 25
In an interview with a representative
of the Bulletin Secretary Hay said
It seems to us that our plan for a
modification of the demands for in
demnity has been rejected by the
foreign powers but what will be the
next action of the United States gov
ernment in the affair has not yet been
decided
The indemnities demanded by the
European powers seem to us to be
excessive It is possible that -this
government may yet put forward a
plan for the reduction which will
prove acceptable to the other powers
interested

R0CKHILL WILL BEAR DOWN
Is Unable to Get Others Approval of U
S Indemnity Plan
WASHINGTON May 24 Mr Rock
hill has confirmed the news from
Pekin to the effect that the foreign
ministers have declined to accede to
the suggestion of the United States
that the total of the indemnity to be
collected from China shall be limited
to 200000000
It is expected that he will continue
his efforts in the direction of keeping
down the maximum of claims even
while abandoning for the sake of
harmony the figures named and it is
believed that the outcome will be a
compromise on a figure between
200000000 and the maximum of 337
000000 claimed by the powers In the
effort to keep down the total Mrt
Rockhill looks for support to the esti
mates submitted by Sir Ernest Satow
the British minister at Pekin and Sir
Robert Hart commissioner of Imperial
customs -whose report upon the abil
ity of China to pay an indemnity of
about 200000000 is now before the
state department
Until the question of grand total is
settled the matter of interest to be
established on the loan and the
method of guaranty are expected to
remain open

NO MERCY
R fflQU
Powers Do Hot Pavor the American Idea
of Decreasing Indemnity
BRITAIN fAYGRS A DEDUCTION
Foreign Ministers Wilt Consider the Mat
ter Farther at Another Meeting The
Present Policy It Is Feared Will
Produce Indefinite Delay
PEKIN May 23 The foreign min
isters meeting was very unsatisfac
tory No power was willing to ac
cede to the Americans idea of reduc
ing the Chinese indemnity 40000000
though Great Britain recognizes the
advisability of some reduction There
will be another meeting tomorrow
SAN FRANCISCO May 23 The
president and Secretary of State Hay
have been in constant communication
with Washington during all their jour
ney west Dispatches from our foreign
embassies have been constantly re
ceived and the China situation has
been continually considered The
president has been anxious lest the
difficulties thrown in the way of an
agreement by the representatives of
some of the powers might lead to In
definite delay and a consequent in
crease of the Indemnity to be exacted
The points to be settled are First
the total amount of the indemnity and
the share of each power Second the
method of payment -
In regard to the first point the pres
ident has constantly endeavored to
moderate the demands of the powers
to an amount which China might pay
without financial ruin or territorial
dismemberment He has thought that
200000000 was the maximum amount
indicated by the best authorities con
sulted and he has proved the willing
ness of this government to make
every sacrifice in the interest of the
integrity of China and the restoration
of normal relations by cutting down
our already moderate claim onehalf if
other powers would make proportion
ate reduction These propositions have
not been- accepted by the other gov
ernments though Great Britain has
shown a disposition to a considerate
treatment of the matter
As to the method of payment it is
understood that there are various
propositions before the conference of
ministers in Pekin One is a loan to
be contracted by China guaranteed by
the powers which it is thought might
be floated at 4 per cent with a com
mission of 5 or 6 per cent Another
is a loan not guaranteed which would
probably require an enormous com
mission and a heavy rate of interest
some 7 per cent
Neither of these propositions was
accepted by the president Two weeks
ago he showed that each of the pow
ers should accept for its share of the
indemnity the bonds of China at par
and with interest at 3 per cent pro
vision for meeting the interest and for
eventual payment being taken from
the salt duties and increased import
taxes Mr Rockhill has now been in
structed to urge these views anew
upon the attention of his colleagues
The attitude of the British govern
ment as set forth in the recent
speeches of its representatives in par
liament indicate that Great Britain
in moderating the demands of the
powers is inclined to accept measures
which if adopted may bring the ne
gotiations to a conclusion
