provides that any right. privilege, or
favor granted by the Chinese authorities
to the people of any other nation shall freely
inure also to the benefit of the people Of the
United States. The Burliugame treaty, re-
affirming and suppementng this convention,
lays particular stress upon the article which
refers to religion and persecution. The French
treaties have always been more stringent than
those of any other nation in provisions for the
protection Of missionaries of both sexes, and
the British and German are explicit enough to
cover such a case an this. France, unfortu
nately, is in no condition at present to protect
her threatened subjects; but tho caase of one
Christian nation now is the cause of all, and we
have no doubt that the foreign representatives
at Pekin will act together. The instructions
of Secretary Fish to Minister Low, in Deem
her. 1869, were specific: You will not fail to
"make it distinctly understood that he 1.-THE
" President will claim the fall performance by
" the Chinese Government OF all the promises
" and obligations which it has assumed by
treaties or conventions with the United
Estates. On this point and in the
maintenance of our existing rights to their full
" ertent You will be always firm and decisive.
"While you will put forward these claims, where
"occasion REQUIRES, with prudence and modcra-
" ton. ven will be unyielding in demanding the
" ertrems protection to American citizens, com

" the treaties And in a dispatch dated last

LESSONS IN LIFE INSURANCE

LboooNo IN LIFE INDCHdNtE
The dissatisfaction of several policy-holden
whose lives were insured in the Knickerbocker
Life Insurance Company having been eY-
pressed at meeting reported in Eesterday,
TRIBUNE, the Company replies td the com.
plant this morning. Both the grievance and
the reply indicate condition Of fEcts in the
life insurance business deseryingfof seriou,
consideration. Agents." as they ale called
perhaps canvassers would be a more comet
signation-going among our GerEan fellow.
citizens whose ignorance of our laTEgmage nav
have helped to seclude them from /. clear con.
ception Of the nature of the conpat, seem to
have obtained applications for policies By en-.
tirely disappearing the character of the
insurance. The agent has promised
TO call to collect premiums when due;
that tho money paid for premiums can
be drawn out as loan. and might
therefore be az conveniently left with the
Insurance Company as with a Savings Bank;
that all notes given in part payment of pre-
MUM will be Cancelled by dividends; and that
the dividends will be equal to half the pre-
MUM. After one, two, or more annual
premiums have been collected by this agent
he leaves the Company. Not one of bis PROM
ises is found to be true He does not call to
collect the premium, and the insurance is de-
clared void.
When, as in one of the cases described, the
unfortunate policy holder finding that nobody
calls for the premium, goes six days after il was
due, to pay it at the office of the Company.
be receives the unwelcOme information Of it's
lapse. A medical examination indicates that
be is no longer a favorable risk" and the
Company declines to renew the expired policy.
He is shown his ewn agreement with the
Company, which cuts off all resource. Tho
Company can only abide by the agreement
which distinctly disclaims the binding naturs
of anything said or written by fhe agent or
by anybody except the PresidentFnd Secretary.
The Door man is entitled to nebng.
It is impossible to deny in sdch case that
a great wrong has been inflcted and almost
everybody knows or has heard Vt cases very
similar. Companies may and fomeumes DO
compromise in grievous instances for the sake
of popularity; but the law caEnot help the
against the consequences of his
own act In the present case thu President Of
the Company says to the unfErtunates who
propose to Htigate, You will Giel, gentlemen,
" that you have given yourselves much trouble
" and annoyance for nothing" EIhe result OF
this must he, of course, to thrGEy great Diff
culties in the way of cabvassing for
life insurance; yet it is Better that
the public should thoroughlyE understand
the matter, even if the business OF
insuring is not so rapid. 1t il essential to
know once for all, that nothing that tho
"agent" says or does binds thf Company;
that no explanations of what is kaeant OF In
tended are of any binding forcel that only
the letter of the bond can be enf9,ced against
the Company, and that neglect of payment OF
premium when due to the Company ITSELF
breaks the obligation of insurance.

Superintendent of Police Kelso, and the
officials whom Ire admits to be his masters,
have grave objection to having 1t known
what disposition is made of the criminals ar
rested in this city. Having greater regard
for the public than for the officials who have
usurped control of the city, The TRIBUNE has
endeavored to supply the needed information,
and TO state what the official report In prepa-
ton will probably take good care to conceal
The statement would have been more com
plete than it is if the Superintendent OF Po-
lice, who, without asserting to the policy OF
his superiors in concealing facts from the peo-
pie, is at any rate very Jealous in enforcing
it, had not interfered and prevented our re-
porters from finishing the investigation of the
record The residents Of at least five Pre-
cincts have the facts before them and can
draw their own conclusions.

Mr.. Samuel c. Fessenden writes us that Mr..
John Z. Sherman is the real author of the
invention or discovery tending to the cheap
production of Steel, which Mr.. George NJ.
Weston assigns to James E. Atwood in WIS
recent letter in our columns. We do not print
Mr.. FPS letter, because the question which it
raises is one to be adjudicated by courts, and
not by the general public. But if Mr.. F: will
tell us where Steel made by Sherman's process
may be bought in large quantities, and at
what price, he will do the public service.

The two gravest offenses which man can
commit in the South at this time appear to be
the voting of the Republican ticket and the
seizure of contraband whisky. We are in daily
receipt Of dispatches detailing the punishment
of offenders of the first class, and this morn
ing we have one describing the murder Of a
United States Marshal, who did his duty In
enforcing the Revenue laws. For the suppress
sion of crimes as fragrant as this even more
summary law than that which Congress lately
passed would seem necessary.

The Army of Versailles is attempting the
reduction of the southern forts of Paris, task
which Won Moltke declined. The furious fire
which was resumed yesterday at the conclu-
sion of the armistice is described as being
very effective, but the forts may be reduced
to ruins without increasing the chances of
their capture. Though detached, they are in
supporting distance of each other and of the
ramparts and, exposed to flank and rear fire,
the captors of any one of them would find
themselves in a most uncomfortable position.
This effective fire is not apt to alter the stu
alton materially, nor, indeed, is there any like
lihood of other conclusion to the siege than
the reduction of the Capital from want of food.

Trades Unionism in the Coal regions of
Pennsylvania is evidently about to commit
suicide. All propositions of the operators for
settlement are rejected by the officers of the
Unions, although it is clear that the men
themselves are disposed to compromise now
instead Of deferring that inevitable conclusion
of all strikes for month or two hence. There
is one consolation to the public, which chiefly
suffers from the continuance of this strike. 1t
is likely to end in the establishment of the
referee system in vogue in England. Such a
conclusion to the long strike would cancel
many of its evils.
