Orchards Oppose.

BY this means it is hoped to make
some sort Of compromise with the
rising nationalist revolutionary gov
eminent of Canton. This is, of
course, bitterly opposed by the die
hard imperialist elements both in
the London cabinet and those ruling
in the British settlements in China,
particularly Hongkong.
Hongkong has suffered, and Brit
ish trade has suffered enormous
losses by the boycott laid against
Hongkong by the Cantonese. The
Canton government now offers to
withdraw the boycott in return for
certain extra taxes to be given to
the Canton authority.

CANTON MAY GET
BRITISH RECOGNITION

London.-The British cabinet Is
seriously debating a reversal of
British policy in China which viii
provide for recognition of the Can
ton government and a practical
ignoring of the faction of a gov
eminent at Peking. The plan is
to recognize as a de factO gov
eminent any real independent
power in the various provinces,
but since Canton is the strongest,
it implies a practical recognition
of Canton and reputation of Pek-
ing.

London, Sept. 24.-Nothing less
than CONSERVATION prevails in gov
eminent circles over the situation in
China. The cotton interests have
been bringing pressure to bear oil
the government for more vigorous
action. British trade in China has
been hit hard by the boycott. Tex
tiles suffered particularly.
The British claim to have infor-
nation that Japan is preparing ror

believed to be for American con-

latter into common action with Bri-
