"The Most Deserving" Creditors Paris, Feb. 11.
M. Poincaré will make a statement before the Finance Committee of the Senate on Monday concerning the Banque Industrielle de Chine. Meantime, he has informed the Presidents of the Senatorial Commissions that three solutions can be taken into account; either to refloat the Bank in accordance with the Government's proposal or the substitution of a new organization to that existing previously, or to reimburse the most deserving, namely, the Chinese depositors and officials.
Respecting the Boxer Indemnity, the question is whether the arrangements made by America can fit in with what France may expect from China. M. Poincaré will clear up these points before the Commission submits the Government's views.—Reuter.
