Our Trds In China,

Washington, D. c., Special-For
the past year, under instructions
from the President, the State Depart
ment has b~en quietly negotiating
for the consummation Of American
interests in China. The officials of
the State Department fatty refuse TO
make any statement relative to the
measure OF success that has attended
their efforts, though it is admitted
that the subject is SO far still open,
although the prospects of ultimate
success are regarded as highly en-
couraging. A government official in
high reputation who has large expert
ence in Chinese questions, is au-
government does not apprehend any
| immediate injury to American in
| terests from the political moves that
are being made in China. On the
contrary, the conditions are such in
the Flowery Kingdom that there is
reason to believe that so far from
restraining the operations OF the
| United States in the matter Of trade
extension in that quarter, nations
which have under one or another
pretext seized upon portions Of the
| Chinese coast would actually vel
come our advent as calculated to ma
terially assist their own efforts t
break down Chinese conservation ant
