WASHINGTON, July 22.—The State de- partment received a dispatch today from Commissioner Rockhbill at Pekin announc- that a plan for the payment of the in- demnlity to the powers by the Chinese gov- ernment had been adopted. The amortization of the bonds to be Is- sued will begin in 1902, and the plan con- templates the entire fiquidation of both principal and Interest by 1940, It 1s expected that China will raise 23,- 000,000 taels annually. This sum Is to be used to pay the Interest on the bonds and to form a sinking fund for the ultimate fquidation of the principal Mr. Rockhill's dispatch was brief and 114 mot' go into any details. From knowledge of the ganeral basis upon which the ministers have been working, however, the State department oficlals have a gen- eral idea of the eonclusions which have been reached. The total amount of in- demnity which China will have to pay will aggregate 450,000,000 taels and bear 4 per cent annual ingerest. It is estimated that of the 23,000,000 taels which China is to pay the first year 18,000,000 taels will be required for interest and that 50,000,000 taels will be applied to the sinking func Each year the intercst will grow less and | the amount set aside for the sinking fund will increase, so that by 1940, when the bonds are to be liquidated, the Interest will | be almost normal, The sources of reve- nuo for the payment of the indemnity as understood here are to be derived the ‘salt tax, the waritime customs and the liken tax, a portion to be taken from each The principal of the payment of the in- denmity having been determined what remalns now is to to devolve a for’ its execution w serlous problem plan This 18 not regarded as The bonds guarantee ing the indemnity are to be distributed among the varlous powers 1he agreed upon heretofore will be no International guarantees. 18 ex pected that governments bouds are allotted will see chasers will be safe dapartment off upprehend that there will be trouble upon the part of the various governments in disposing of these securities on There but it to whom that the pur WASHINC The president today made the following appeintments State—Richard L, Sprague, Massachusetts, consul at Glbraltar, Spain; Creevy, Connecticut, consul at Samuel L.

The auditorium committes has decided that it does not desire to have a series of concerts from the Banda Rossa, the musical organization that has done considerable in the way of public amusement up around Minneapolls and St. Paul. This decision was reached at a meeting of the auditorium executive committes Monday afternoon. When Howard Pew of New York submitted a proposition for a two weeks series of con- certs during the latter part of September he did not, of course, know that exactly thirteen members of the Auditorium com- mittee would meet on the hottest day that ever happened to conkider it, but that was Just the unfortunate condition that greeted followed that the committee reached the conclusion that the proposed series of con- certs at that time would Interfere with the Ak-Sar-Ben festivities and declined to en- gage this celebrated orchestra.
