SITUATION IN CHINA.
importation of Arms Grave Menace
to Peace Of the World.

Washington. Feb. 25.-Representa
tions have been made to the state de.
partment by the Russian ambassador.
Count Cassini, regarding the increas-
ing seriousness Of the situation in
China in the hope Of that the United
States will cooperate with the other
powers TO stop the illegal importation
OF arms which has reached an alarm
ing stage of activity. Similar repre-
sentations have been made through
the Russian representatives to Bel
GUM. Germany and Great Britain. The
Chinese officials claim they are power
less to stop the practice, and the Rus
sian government. in the interest of
peace, has called the matter to the
attention Of the powers.
Hay and Cassini Confer.
Secretary Hay and the Russian am
bassador hays had several conferences
on the matter but it has not been de-
cided Just what course the United
States, under the Constitution. can
take toward preventing the eXporta-
ton of arms II is probable that the
only relief lies in special legislation
by congress, which is deemed impos-
sible at this session. The Belgians
are the chief offenders in this illegal
practice. though it is said many arms
are entering China from the United
States, Germany and Great Britain.
Ambassador Cassini, who has spent
many years in China and is responsi-
BILE in great degree for the success
Of the Russian policy there. regards
the Chinese situation as deserving Of
the serious and immediate considera-
/ tion of the powers. Reports received
at the state department also indicate
! that mischief is being wrought by the
Importation Of arms into China.

Dear little Willie's gone TO school.
We left him at the door
The baby that his mother had,
Alas, is hers no more!
His little kits are put away,
His fiaXen eurls are shorn;
His toys lie in the hall today,
Neglected and forlorn.
Our neighbours chickens calmly hunt
For bugs, and worms and things
Or sun themselves, relieved from fear
Of broken legs and wings.
The doing cat is cuddled up
All in a peaceful heap,
And out upon the steps the pup
Is catching up on sleep.
All, signing little mother, why
Sit looking pensive there?
There still is sunlight in the sky
And sweetness in the air.
The peaceful moments calmly GO
Come! Come! Don't be a fool
I'm sorry for the teacher, though,
