"There is no danger whatever of an up
rising in China against foreigners s0id
Sir Chengtung Lang Chang, the Chinese
Minister. 1T is true. OF course, that
there is political agitation in China, but
It's object is to create such excitement as 10
cause international complications with
the view of Gripping, If not wholly de-
stroying the present dynasty. My gov
ernment is amply prepared TO meet any
emergency. ] do not mean that China
is threatened with a revolution, but that
a small party OF discontents is striving
desperately to start a revolution. But
the movement would not be strong OF
dangerous.
"My government is keeping me min
utely informed. If, as q result OF the
agitation now going on, any foreigner is
harmed, the Emperors soldiers will pound
upon the community that harbors the
miscreants and lay it waste should they
be unable to find every one Of the scoun-
drels directly or indirectly responsible
for the trouble. The slaughter will be
sickening if the government is driven to
reprisals Yuan Shi ki, the great Niceroy
OF Chill, set the example for this sort Of
rigid work in the Boxer uprising of 1900.
The slaughter of the Chinese by the En-
peror's soldiers would be more horrible
than that of Yuan's soldiers six years ago

China in foreign trouble do not desist %
