Wasaiaovos. April 18.-—Unltcd States
Minister Dun at Tokyo has been heard
trout in an announcement of the conclu‘
lieu of streaty of peace between China
and Japan. but he apparently does not
know upon what terms the agreement has
been reached. lor he has nothing specific
to say upon that point. 'l‘lle'Chineso and
Japanese lcgallous here are in equal ig-
norance as tho exact conditions.
It is believed born that Japan has secur-
ed the abolition of tho likintax, by which
is meant the tax imposed upon goods trans-
ported !roul one point ill China to another
in addition to tile regular customs tax.
This has been thc object of all occidental
diplomats accredited to China for many
years. and the otllclals of the stat-c dcparh
mont fool that all civilized nations will
owe a debt of gratitude to Japan for thus
removing a most onerous burdun upon
their commerce with China, for it is not
believed that the concession Would be
made ill the interest of Japan alone
Should Japan. however. be the only
beneficiary as rcgards this tax. it is fully
expected that a strong protest will be
made by the powcrs. which Would be
greatly handicapped in the competition
with Japan for Chinese trade unless they
could claim the same privileges of cxcnlp-
than under the favored nation clauses of
their treaties.
The loss of the likin tax will be very
scvcrcly felt- by China. It averages about
12,000.000 taels per annual, and China
will supply the deficit in rcvcuue with
great dlfliculty. The total revenues of the
country were estilllatod by a competent
British consular ullloor in 1888 at 65,000.-
000 tools per annulu. and as tho customs
taxes are limited by treaty to n pol-cent
it is a matter of much spectYlatioll as to
how tho country will raise the large in-
demnity demanded by Japan.
