THE CHINESE MIDDLE.
England's Peculiar Position
OVerZealOuS Missionaries.

LONDON. Sept. 23.-The message of
the Chinese government, showing that
English subjects are largely engaged in
encouraging rebellion and use of dyna-
mite as means of destroying the es
tablished order of things in China, has
fallen like bombshell on the British
foreign Office. For months past the
British government has been posing as
the champion of civilization against the
unregenerat,e Chinese, and British yes
sells of war have been ready to lead the
other powers in the commandment of
serving order. And now it turns out
that the men who are making profita
BILE business of disorder are British sub
jects. who have been importing rifles
and explosives for the use of sue
tiyes as might be induced e d i
designs.
The British authorities in 1.una nave
been promptly instructed to make their
investigation as to the guilt of the ac-
cused as thorough and searching as pos
sible. Meantime the other powers are
III quandary relative to future action.
The treaty binds them to act in con-
junction with England, but England's
right to interfere is discredited. and is
practically annulled by the develop
ments above alluded to. 1t is even
claimed that the British subjects under
arrest in China were merely the agents
for wealthy clique in hong Kong who
see profit for themselves in melting the
Chinese to civil war.
Sensible foreigners at Shanghai favor
the stand taken by the Chinese govern
ment. One of Shanghai's most promi-
nent foreign merchants is quoted as
authority for the statement that the
missionaries are altogether too aggres
and prejudices of the people, and that
thereby they often provoke popular
demonstrations of violence, which are
intended simply as protest against the
intolerable. This is the view recently
urged by Chinese magistrate upon the
foreigners of Shanghai, and it has met
with many favorable responses.

New YORK, Sept. 26.-There were
persistent rumors in this city to-day
that the Searles will case will be COM
promised out of the court. One story is
that Mr.. Searles' admissions on the
stand have so alarmed his lawyers that
they have advised him to compromise.
Timothy Hopkins, the contestant. is in
this city. He declined toeither confirm o.
deny the reports. Another rumor is that
the contestants have learned through
papers brought out in the hearings that
even if they should win eventually, the
legal intrenchments of the other side
are so many that the litigation would be
very long, extending possibly over a
generation, and eating seriously into
che estate. After breaking the will
there would be many other suits to
fight, and this makes it probable that a
settlement will be sought.
