CHINA FRIENDLY TO L. S.
DR.. f. r. Tong Says Sale of Han
kO1c R. II. Greued Chinese.

Dr. f. T. Tong, sent to the United States by
the Chinese government the special repre-
sentative Of the Department Of Treaty Revision
for the investigation of commerce arrived in
Victoria, b. c.. from Shanghai last week on
the steamer Shawmut. DR.. Tong who was a
fellow passenger of Mayor Louis l. Seaman L.
S. V. E. expressed himself freely on the reIa-
tions between the United States and China and
defended the action of China in the recent bow
colt
Major Seaman said last night that DR. Tong
declared that the action of America I'm the dispo-
sition Of the Hangkow Railroad was i'm great
measure responsible for the boycott. as well as
the Chinese Exclusion act Mayor Seaman ad-
ded:
"On the voyage from the Orient Dr. Tong told
me that China WAS deeply grieved over the sale
or the majority OF the stock OF the Hankow
Railroad TO the Belgians. and that the prominent
business men of China, in cooperation with
WI Ting-fang, had purposely planned the boy
colt at a time when Congress was not in session
so that the American merchants whose trade was
thereby affected would force Congress to take
definite action at the next session. DR.. Tong
said also that China looked to America as the
only disinterested friend who could awaken her
from the lethargy of five hundred years and
rejuvenate her as Japan has been aroused in the
last fifty years.
DIR. Tong said We want our younger men
VINO show ability for craftsmanship or business
enterprise educated in America. To-day the
Chlnese student is not rated as formerly ac-
cordlng TO knowledge of Confucian classics but
by the standard of education in the Occident
Nothing would be more welcome to China
than radical increase in the number of stu
dents educated in American universities and
imbued with American ideas China views with
apprehension the influence of other countries
anu anu would welcome most heartily a plan
whereby the Chinese students could be educated
in America
AS evidence Of this. the most influential men
or CHINA are opposed TO the return of the Boxer
indemnity which the Americans have offered TO
return The great masses in China know that
II the indemnity is sent to the Empress it will
De used for her own personal extravagances
me Chinese want the money put into United
states bonds and used for the education of
Cinnamon In American universities China Is
willing that the fund should be kept in per
petuaton-or what would please them better
have America draw on the principal and educate
one thousand Chinese students a year until the
amount is exhausted. China believes that these
students returning to China, would exert a bal
anclng effect on the undesirable influx from
other landS'
