OF SHANGHAI RIOTS.

There is at pres mt staying in Homo
lulu an official of thirty years standing
in the Imperial Chinese Customs SER
vice He is by no means a stranger
here for he has visited the islands sew
eral times and as he says, always looks
forward to a return to them. A British
subject by birth he entered the Chinese
customs at the time of the re-organi-
cation and has been there with the ex-
Ception of furloughs ever since In view
of the fact that he is a Chinese official
he would not consent to having his
identity disclosed, but he said to the
Star frankly enough this morning, that
he was most apprehensive over the
turn of affairs in China.
Il have been stationed up the Yang
Use valley for several years past" he
said and the growing distrust of for
eigners has been so marked recently
that the blindest man could not help
seeing it. A point which it seems to
me is generally overlooked is that the
Chinese regard their Manchu conquer
ors as foreigners and the revolt if it
does occur, will be as much against the
Manchus as against the other foreign
ers,' OF course all of us foreigners,
| German, French, American, British
and what not will be included in the
row. There will be no earthly way of
preventing that. OF course the topic
of a possible uprising is one that has
cropped up at every meeting 1 have
had with different of my colleagues and

such as we British, Americans, French
and Germans have. In the old days
when even the Germans were not re-
presented, the American, French and
British representatives might have
their differences but they presented a
solid front to the Chinese and were res
pected. Now this is changed. Little
chaps representing little nations are
putting on all sorts of airs claiming to
be on an equality with the great pow
ers there. They forget that if it were
not for the warships lying out in the
river their lives would not be worth
a minutes purchase. Some of them
have even backed up the demand of
the Chinese living in the foreign settle
ment for representation in the gov rn-
ment of the settlement and this has
caused a deal of unrest. A Chinese
who comes of his own accord to live i'm
the settlement does so knowing full
well that he will have no voice in the
government and tacitly agrees to that.
He also knows, though, that he will
receive foreign protection against the
squeezings' of the taotai and his un-
derlings. Now they are demanding a

nations must stand firm. 1t would be
simple suicide to permit any such
change to be adopted. If the fight
comes between the Manchus and the
Chinese the Foreigners will he between
the upper and neither millstones with
vengeance. l can only hope that trou-
bic may be averted but 1 am as 1 said
apprehensive, very apprehensive."
Speaking as to the population of
China, the visitor said that when he
was in Picking he was one of an inter
national commission to gather data to
find as nearly as possible the population
of the Empire. This information when
collected made the population about
2oO,OOOOOO or about 100000 900 less than
is usually stated.
"Stll SOO,OOO,COO is quite few" he
added.

CHINESE GETS CONSIDERATION.

CHINESE GETS CONSIDERATION
WASHINGTON, Feb 6.-Secretary Of
Commerce and Labor Metcalf has APP
proved the report of the commission
appointed to revise the regulations for
the admission of Chinese into the Unit
ed States. The Bertill0n system for
the identification of applicants for adj
mission will be abandoned, and more
moderation and consideration will be
shown in handling Chinese who arrive
in the coutry. 1t is believed that this
ameEoration of the enforcement of the
act will check the boycott i'm China.

Il know nothing of the presence of

of the local immigration service today.
IF the department We're inquiring in
to the immigration or any other feat
ure of NE work in these islands we
would hardly be advised in advance re-
garding the matter. So far as I am
concerned, the department can inquire
secretly or otherwise into the conduct
