Chau was reserved and conserved in
the lease OF 1898. In the event Of war
therefore, Germany should dismantle
the forts and place them under the pro
lection of China" Instead Of taking
that course. Germany had proclaimed
martial law and gone straight ahead
with her military preparations without
previously consulting China.
90 That Germany had made use OF
the Shantung railway traversing Chi
nese territory for the transport of pro-
visions and other military supplies.
(3) That German warships frequent
cd neutral Chinese waters and made
captures within such waters. This pro-
test must be borne in mind when CON
sdering the unveiled threat contained
IN Germany's protest that she Ger

present and future, TO deal in whatever
manner she thinks fit with this breach
OF neutrality by China" THE landing
OF the Japanese troops at Lungkow0
On September 10 the Chinese gov
eminent telegraphed the Chinese au-
thorities in Shanghai. drawing their at
tention 20 reports of alleged bellig-
crent use OF the wireless apparatus
aboard an interned German gunboat at
Marking. The Shanghai authorities
were also notified of complaint on the
part OF the German Legation that bel
iigerent use was being made of wire
less stations in both the French and
the international settlements at Shang-
hal. The Taoyin cor intendant) at
Shanghai was directed to settle this
matter impartially, and action was at
once taken 70 redress these grievances.
Weihsien Incident Most Serious Vio-
lation.
BY far the most serious violation of
China's neutrality was what is known
as the Weihsien incident. On Septem-
Der 20 a detachment Of four hundred
japanese soldiers occupied the railway
depot at that place. Next day one
thousand more soldiers moved west
ward along the line. Weihsien is about
one hundred and twenty-four miles by
rail west of Tsingtao, and more than
fortythree miles beyond the direct line
of advance from Laichow TO Tsingtao.
II was far outside the extended war
zone. lmmo dia.e protest IS made by
the Chinese Foreign Office, but the
japanese defended their action on the
ground that G)' this was a German
railway. and (2) that the occupation OF
Weihsien was prompted by military
necessity. Against these contentious
China demurred % that the railway in
question was owned and constructed by
private company purely for CONNER
cial purposes; 90 that Chinese owned
a part Of the capital stock and were
represented on the board o directors;
also that the line lay over Chinese
neutral territory. Next came the pro-
test Of China charging the Germans al
TSingtao with sowing mines broadcast
in the China Sea; the protest on the
part of the Entente Allies against the

against any other people, Is it an in
vitation TO the Chinese to welcome,
deep down in their hearts, closer
foreign participation and cooperation
in their affairs?
Present Organization Not Good Tor
China or Foreign Interests.
The world has moved, China has
moved. considerably since 1900. what
was good for China and good for for
eign interests in China in 1900 no
longer conservcs either China's inter
ests or the interests Of foreigners in
China. A recent act on the part OF
the Chinese government, not without
its lesson, is the setting apart OF
special Chinese military police force
under a Norwegian commanding officer
in the pay of the Chinese government
and responsible to the Chinese gov
eminent to act in place Of those lega-
ton guards withdrawn by belligerents
for use in the field Chinese police

result of the growth OF foreign IN

of Tsing-li-yamen, crumbled and feli

of practical application. Jealousy on

a courageous and impartial confronta-

as far as possible. Of foreign Interior

the assistance Of China to become mis-
tre,s in her own house.
The question OF the right of China
70 levy her own customs duties as she
wishes beyond the per cent limit set
in the treaties has been raised many
Zines. The United States would doubt
loss consent at once. Other CONNER
c;al mowers have refused. Could China
control her customs freely. her iinan-
cial weakness. about which so much
mother has been made by foreigners,
would disappear at once. The foreign
control over concessions in Japan and
her control of her own courts were re-
moved at once as soon as she showed
that she could fight. Must China first
show that she can fight before any
stems are taken to restore to her the
sovereign rights taken from her in the
davs Of ignorance and weakness?

pritain and Japan. we're actually DIS
,-med and interned by the Chinese
government.
The extension OF the war zone was
defended on the following gSunds:
IN "Germsny's military operations on
Chinese territory; l2) German and
British men-of-wsr had exchanged
,bo.s IN Chinese territorial waters;
Z, the landing Of Japanese at Lung
low outside the neutral zone
Notwithstanding these facts the
German charge d'sfTsircs at Peking
lodged three protests, his CHIEF con
,ention being that inasmuch as the
special zone has been proclaimed after
the Jspanese) landing, It was OBJ
viously intended 10 facilitate the oper-
atoms Of the Entente allied forces
In his reply to the first two protests
me Chinese Foreign Minister declared;
From the very beginning, when
Japan and Great Britain decided 20
attack Tsingtso. my government per
siStently negotiated with the two
powers and demanded that their
troops must not employ Chinese ter
ritory. Our efforts we're fruitless,

forces At Lungkow became fact

the military use OF all the bellig-
erents. My government was forced
to adopt this course after having tI-
hausted all and every means within
its power to prevent otherwise a
breach Of China's neutrality"
Germany's Third Protest.
The German government in its third
protest admitted that prior to the Jap
Anese landing China had evidently
done what she could to maintain strict
neutrality, but asserted: % that
China had not formally protested since
the landing; (2) that the war zone had
not been definitely defined, leaving 1t
TO the choice Of the Allies to select
whichever route they desired for mil
tary purposes; (3) that the war zone
should have been announced before the
landing Of the Japanese at Lungkow
so that Germany might have been in a
position to avail herself OF this zone
for defensive purposes; and ca that
there was no analogy between the sit
uation in Shantung during this war
and that which had existed in the
Liaotung peninsula during the Russo
japanese war; the (Russo-Japanese)
war zone was specifically defined and
consequently open to either belliger-
ent. Chinas reply was a denial OF liza
bility because (D cher situation is un-
like that Of any other neutral country,
inasmuch as in her territory belliger-
ents have strongholds; and 90
"neither belligerent power during the
Russo-Japanese war protested As
matter Of fact. before, during and after
the japanese landing at Lungkow the
Waichiappu (Cbins's Foreign Office

cally as was possible.

China Browbeatcn by Belligerents She
Shelters.
Since the fall of Tsingtao and the
destruction Of German military power
in the Far East. there have been re-
peated reports from all belligerent
sources alleging unneutrsl acts on the
part Of belligerents domiciled IN
China. Only a few weeks ago the
charge was cabled to American news
papers that the riot outside the
French settlement in Shanghai was the
outcome of German intrigue. The evi-
dence available here renders IT almost
certain that this particular incident
was the result of governmental III
trigue conducted within the French
settlement. But enough has been SAID
TO make it clear that from all SIDES
and sources China has been badgered
and browbeaten by the belligerents
domiciled within her domain and under
the treaties, having arms IN their
hands II must be manifest to the I'M
partial outside observer that this
situation created by Chlna's interna-
tional obligations, very largely no
doubt through the fault of her gov.
eminent in earlier times, preJudiced
her and endangered both her neutrality
and her sovereignty from the very out
break Of hostilities while, despite these
instantaneous circumstances, through
the exercise of a forbearance and
patience which seems almost super
human. China still has managed to re-
main neutral in an active as well as
in r passive sense.
There is very strong feeling which
is coming TO be more largely and more
generously shared by foreigners in
China that the experiences of the pres
ent war call for new and more gen
crous attitude toward China in the
matter of continuance of eXtraterri-
torial jurisdiction and the maintenance
on China's domain Of foreign forts and
foreign garrisons. Why should China
be singled out for treatment which the
world has never dared to perpetrate
