Hopes for U. S. Acquiescence.

The Daily Chronicle in discussing cot
ton declares there is good reason to hope
that the United States will view i'll a
favorable light the action declaring cot
ton contraband.
IL regularizes our position, says this
ncWspa per. land removes the faint of il
legality which American opinion, rightly
sensitive. has attached to some of our
actions under the orders in council There
remains the problem of dealing with, the
powerful cotton interests in the southern
states. 1t is the inevitable incident of
war that the innocent must suffer. Lam
cashire was severely hit by the civil war
in America, and the cotton interests OF
America may suffer from this war
IF the British government can devise
any means for preventing injury to the
cotton growers its efforts will be keenly
appreciated. We attach high value to
unofficial Americas unmistakable sym
rathy for us in this war, and nothing
must be done to estrange it,"

IS INVITED TO ASSIST
CONSTITUTION MAKERS
Prof. Goodnow, Government Ad-
wiser, Discusses Return to Mon
archical System in China.

PEkING, August 1S.-At the request
of President Yuan Shi-Kai Prof. Frank
J. Goodnow, legal adviser to this gov
eminent, has deferred his departure
from China until September s, in Or
der that he may advise the constitu-
tion-drafting committee of ten appoint
ed by the president, who are now as
sembling in Picking. Their decision, it
is believed here, will follow monarchi-
cal lines as definitely and rapidly as
the nation will permit.
Explains His Views.
In the Picking Gazette Dr. Goodnow
today explains his opinions concern
ing the government of China. He says
that succession to executive power
often, particularly in the South and
Central American states, leads to civil
war, which results in the worst posi-
BILE form of government-militar die
tatorship. The Chinese, he says, could
not afford to permit civil war or a
great disorder. which would almost
certainly lead to foreign intervention,
with the probable loss of political in
dependence.
His Recommendations.
1t is understood that Dr. Goodnow in
his documentary advice to President
Yuan Sh-Kai recommends that the
change from a republic to a monarchy
should first be made acceptable to
both the thinking people of China and
the foreign powers, and that Yuan
Shi-Kai is following this advice in
sanctioning the formation of the So
called peace society, the nominal OBJ
ject of which is the discussion of the
best form of government for China.
The Inauguration of this peace So
ciety is fixed for Saturday. The pro-
motors announce in the newspapers
that it has numerous adherents.
