Restrictions Aim at
CURLING Yuan Shi-K al.

Forthwith the draft of the rules
and regulations for making of Presi-
dents in China was produced. One
rule placed the term at six years; an
other prevented a President from
seeking reelection, and Il few others
placed restraints which were aimed
directly at Yuan Shi-K'ai.
At once the committee began to
hear remonStrance from military and
police organiza tons. Some conveyed
sinister threats, others hint that IL
considerable freedom were not given
the President, perhaps there would be
no need of constitution at all.
When the draft reached Parliament
similar demonstrations" were made.
The campaign has had its effect.
Members known to be opponents OF
Yuan Shi-K'ai who had proved i'm
mune to bribery became alarmed.
Therefore the term of the President
was set at five years, with the right
sof re election for a second term, and
provision for an exhaustive ballot was
agreed to.
For the first ballot a threefourths
majority out of q two thirds attend
ance of the members of the joint
houses was required to elect Presl-
dent, and IL that ballot failed, a sec

Gen. H 'ang Sing Fears
Confiscation of Estates.

However this is his first visit to
Japan; but he is already wondering
when he will be able to return to
China. He also worries that his
estates may be confiscated, as has
been the custom from time imme-
mortal when the Government has had
10 deal with rebels, so called.
Yuan Is undoubtedly in control at
the present time, and his paid troops
have overcome the revolutionlsts in
the latter's strongholds; but all this
is merely temporary, for the great
South and Center will not suffer
themselves to be ruled from Picking
by virtually the same band Of Man
chus in power during the empire.

desirable to the people Of China
might be accomplished by peaceful
and constitutional means, and l had
d great dread of anything that would
approach civil war.

ion to the Government the specter of
civil war in America came before me
