DAY evening by special invitation. 1t is
supposed the French demands in China
were the subject OF discussion There
are some doubta as to the extent of the
demands.
A dispatch to the Daily Mail from Japan
mentions report that the Yang Use val

report from Pekin that France has de-
manded that China shall not cede any por'
ton OF the province Of Kwei Chau, this
province being within the valley.
The Times has a dispatch from Pektn,
however, which explains that the demands
apply only to the three provlnces-Kwen-

Discussing the matter editorially. the
Times suggests as az explanation oil these
discrepancies that NJ. Dubaii, the trencn
