What China Expects.

tiations for a huge foreign loan will be
started.
What China Expects.
1t is 10 be feared that many of the Chi
nese believe that once peace is restored
To- ign bankers will come forward with
tons of gold ready to lend TO China. This
is scarcely true. Conditions are such that
despite China's richness. the lending Oh
money will be matter attended by eX-
treme caution A loan will doubtless be
made. but the bankers will surely make
requirements that will be distasteful to the
Chinese. In the first place, foreign con
troll OF revenues will be demanded-that
thing which is most obnoxious TO the Chi-
nese and one of the very things which
caused the revolution. But without this
foreign supervision of revenues 1t is doubt
| full II China can procure funds from any
quarter Such supervision is trouble
breeder.

between the republican government and the
