PekIn. April l5.-Koumar Ycutaro,
the Japanese minister. accompanied by
General 1amaguchi, the Japanese COM
mander. recently called upon Prince
Ching and notified him that the return
of Emperor Kwang Su TO Pellin was
urgently desired. Prince Ching was in.
formed that the Emperor's wishes
would be respected by the foreign rep
reseptatiyeS and that every courtesy
would be shown him.
1t was poilted out to the Chinese
plenipotentiary that the Emperor's re-
turn was of the highest possible i'm
portance as affecting the maintenance
of the integrity of the Chinese empire.
and that he should come accompanied
by every available soldier by at least
10000 men. If possible.
These troops, 1t was further contend
ed by the Japanese minister, must be
sent into Manchuria, as the Russians
reported great disturbances there and
it was not right that the task Of quell-
ing the trouble should be thrown upon
the shoulders OF one nation. Finally
Prince Ching was assured that II the
10000 Chinese troops could not sup
press the disorders in Manchuria other
powers would send an International
all the powers regarded as friendly
power.
No reply having been received to this
communication, Ii Hung Chang was
to-day notified to the same effect and
told that Emperor kwang Su must
give an immediate. answer.
