Fall in Silver Hard on China Indemnity
Peking May 17 An important question has arisen between China and the powers over the payment of the Chinese indemnity. The protocol fixes a payment of 150,000,000 taels in silver regardless of exchange rate. The silver decline since the protocol was signed imposes hardship on China. Sir Ernest Satow consented to a provisional division of installments already paid on a pro rata reduction. United States Minister Conger has instructions to reduce US claims by 1,000,000 and may withdraw the offer of a reduction in light of Britain’s compromise.
