[21] The highest degree which is conferred on the Lamas by their Universities is the Rabs-jam-pa (verbally overflowing endlessly).—Waddell, 'Lamaism in Tibet.'
[22] The liberation of the Lachung men and the destruction of the Yatung and Gob-sorg barriers.
[23] The following is a draft of the terms as communicated by The Times Correspondent at Peking. The terms have not yet been disclosed in their final form, but I understand that Dr. Morrison's summary contains the gist of them:
'1. Tibetans to re-erect boundary-stones at the Tibet frontier.
'2. Tibetans to establish marts at Gyangtse, Yatung, Gartok, and facilitate trade with India.
'3. Tibet to appoint a responsible official to confer with the British officials regarding the alteration of any objectionable features of the treaty of 1893.
'4. No further Customs duties to be levied upon merchandise after the tariff shall have been agreed upon by Great Britain and the Tibetans.
'5. No Customs stations to be established on the route between the Indian frontier and the three marts mentioned above, where officials shall be appointed to facilitate diplomatic and commercial intercourse.
'6. Tibet to pay an indemnity of £500,000 in three annual instalments, the first to be paid on January 1, 1906.
'7. British troops to occupy the Chumbi Valley for three years, or until such time as the trading posts are satisfactorily established and the indemnity liquidated in full.
