SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 5.-The steam
ship Belgic arrived from Hong Kong
and Yokohama, via. Honolulu, bringing
adv!ces from Yokohama to Aug. 10. and
from Hong Kong to Aug. 1, chiefly re-
lating to events the details of which
nave already been published.
In the Hong Kong budget is included,
however, the story that the japanese are
considering unique idea regarding the
disposal of Chinese prisoners.
The Chinese already captured appear
to be pleased at having been made pris-
oners. as they receive better treatment
than they are accustomed to when at
large In their own country. 1t Is pro-
posed to send these prisoners back to
China, where they will not fail to speak
in high terms of the treatment they re-
ceived while in Japan, and those who
hear of this would be so DESTROYS of
experiencing the same treatment that
they would not fight with any ardor
when they encountered the Japanese
troops, but would lay down their arms
and run to the Japanese as self-sur-
rendered prisoners
