Would Prefer British Influence, But

Peidn, Aug. 31.-A high member OF
the tsung Ii yamen (Chinese foreign
ofnce). who is a British sympathizer,
complained in the course OF a recent in
terview. that Great Britain's assur-
ances OF support against Russian ag-
gression was belated.
''Why" asked this functionary,
withhold such a declaration until Rus
sia had secured Port Arthur and
France obtained considerable cessions
In the south. The disintegration OF the
empire has begun, and today the ne
cessity for strong action is less urgent
than when Russia first obtained a foot
hold"
He admitted that China had broken
her promises to England, but this he
argued, was because Russian pressure
was too strong to be resisted. He COM
planned OF British ignorance OF Rus
sia's line of action" and asked ''why
does not England approach Russia d.
rectly with a declaration that Russia's
interference in China Will be regarded
as q casus belif 1t is useless to pun
ish helpless China and to participate
IN the disintegration OF the empire.
