LOAN FOR BOXER INDEMNITY. (Received November 11, 9 .a.m.) PEKIN, November 10. The Inspector-General of Imperial Maritime Customs in China (Mr Francis Arthur Aglen) has informed the President (General Yuan-Shih-Kai) that he will undertake to meet all the loan for. the Boxer indemnity payments from the Maritime and N-itive Customs revenue, if four hundred thousand taels (£120,000) monthly are allotted from the salt gabelle (the annual revenue from which is £729,500), to provide for unforseen contingencies. The report that the Government has resumed negotiations with the Six Powers financial group are not wholly justified.
