In reply to the joint notes of Great Britain, the U.S., France, Japan, Italy, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands, sent on February 24 and November 3 of last year demanding that China make future payments of the Boxer indemnity in gold francs, Chinese Government made the answer printed below, taken from the "Peking Daily News," for December 29 last. Representatives of the eight Powers have replied that Powers have not changed their previous attitude but that for each Haikwan tael owed to each of the Powers China must pay a sum which is shown by Article 7 of the final Protocol as an equivalent of the tael in gold.
