THE CHINESE BOYCOTT.
Journalist Direct from Picking Says
It Cannot Assume Great
Proportions.

Victoria, B. c., July 29.-Dr. Morris
on, Picking correspondent of the Lon
don Times, arrived by the steamer
Tartar Friday on his way to attend
the peace negotiations. Interviewed
regarding the boycott established by
the Chinese against American mer-
chants and merchandise in China, he
said he did not think the movement
would assume great proportions
While it was a boycott on a larger
scale than any previously attempted
in China, it was without government
sanction, as had been alleged. In the
larger Chinese cities it was not CON
sidered that the movement is suffi-
ciensly serious to cause alarm. Re
garaing the report telegraphed from
Shanghai that Japanese influences
were believed to be behind the move
ment, Dr. Morrison said he did not be-
lieve this for an instant Just now he
said the tendency was to blame the
Japanese for everything that took
place in the orient. From his own OBJ
servations he learned that the Japa-
nese have the best feeling toward the
United States. The boycott movement
is being organized by societies of Chi
nese students, many of whom we're
educated in Japan and abroad. They
petitioned the government to refuse
to agree to such legislation, and the
boycott, weapon used for hundreds
of years in China was started to FIR.
there their cause.
Regarding China's attitude toward
the forthcoming peace conference, he
said a section. of the Chinese wanted
representation for China at the con.
ference, but better counsel had pre-
vailed on it being shown that thu
meeting was in no sense an interna.
tional one, but solely between the bel.
ligerents. The leading Chinese officials
are confident that Japan will act in
good faith.

FEAR FOR FUTURE TREATY
Belief in Washington That China May
Not Consent to Renew the
Agreement.

Washington, July 2S.-Some doub'
is expressed in official circles whethes
it will be possible to obtain Chinas con
sent to another treaty with the United
States providing for even the exclusion
of Chinese labOrers from this country
The state department is aware of i'll
feeling throughout China on the whole
subject, and now that the immigra.
ton treaty with China has been allowed
to lapse without the negotiation of a new
agreement, reports have reached here
that China is inclined hereafter to re-
fuse to sign any similar convention
China's position appears to be that the
exclusion Of Chinese citizens from g
friendly country is in itself a disgrace
and, while she cannot ignore the laws
of foreign power providing for such
exclusion, she can refuse to sanction il
or become part Of it by concluding q
treaty involving such restrictions A
year ago, it is said, it would have been
easy to conduct negotiations with China
for the exclusion of Chinese laborers
only. Now, however, it is understood,
the Chinese officials are disposed to re-
gard the signing Of such treaty be.

Battlefield ORATlONs.
A Great Deal of Fiction About the
Recorded Martial Speeches.

: -
Recorded Martial Speeches.
Somebody once asked the Duke Of
Wellington If speeches on the battle
field were really made as reported and
what was their effect. The duke said,
.What effect on the whole army can
be made by speech since you cannot
conveniently make it heard by more
than thousand men standing about
you? Then the duke was asked if
it were not the fact that Napoleon de-
slivered some rather notable orations
on the field. The duke would not have
it. 'sThe proclamations you read of in
the French army were much more seen
In the papers than by the soldiers they
were meant for Paris" 1t was all
right, the duke agreed, to address a
regiment upon presenting it with col
ors and that sort of thing On the
whole, French troops might be more
impressed by speech than the Eng
fish, who in the dukes Waterloo army
were, he declared, 1.-THE scum of the
earth, who had all enlisted for drink

A Stevenson Story,

A book on Stevenson tells Of a speech
he made at gathering of Scotchmen
in Samoa. He said: II cannot say why
we are proud to be Scotsmen, but the
fact remains that we are. It is not
that our land is sunny like these trop-
ical isles, and it's climate is not even
lovely. Scotland's history contains lit
tie that is not disgusting to people Of
humane feelings. That long brawl
which is called Scottish history con-
tains scarcely one object that Scots
have patience with" The address drew
tears to the eyes Of a German who had
gone to the meeting violently preju-
diced against Stevenson. No sooner
had the speaker finished than the meet
ing proceeded to clasp hands and sing
"Auld Lang Syne"
