Of these regulations, the Times' corres- pondent says "the Chinese themselves do not take them-seriously, recognizing that they are more concerned with politics and sovereign rights than with mining, Chinese owners of mineral-bearing properties are also aware that, for them, such regulations are not meant to be taken au pied de la lettre ; that their application in any given case will continue to depend on circumstances and the rapacity of deputies and local officials, a matter of eastomary compromise, of give and take.

To require him, as a condition of entering upon, operations in partnership with Chinese subjects, to' accept Chinese jurisdiction and to obey the laws of China, when no man knows what those laws are to-day or what they may be to-tuorrow, is equivalent to prohibiting all development of the country's mineral wealth by means of foreign capital and scientific methods; which is precisely what H.D CHANG CHIH-TONG intended. Looking at the matter from the "Young China's" | point of view, and remembering certain of their country's unfortunate experience with foreign capitalists and concessionnaires, the Conservative Viceroy's attitude is intelligible enough. To him and to his large body of followers the foreigner is identified with forcible exploitation of the country; and they would rather that their mines should romain unopened for centuries than work thera under conditions which admit the European's privileged or superior position Herein the Chinese patriot derives his ideas directly from Japan, and, forgetting that his country has as jet affected none of the political and administrative reforms which suable Japan to dispense with the assistance (though not with the capital) of Europeans, he proceeds as if Chins were

Ir is quite clear that there is no prospect for foreign capital in Chinese mining enterprise, Taking the case of a coal-mine, the Shanghai correspondent of the Times gives a shockingly suggestive summary of the conditions on which alone CHANG CHIB-TUNG seems willing to accept the use of foreign capital for the mineral develop ment of China. The gist of the rules laid down for the foreign capitalist who wishes to invest in coal mining is thus clearly
set forth:
1. To place himself and his capital under the Jawn of Ohina in all matters of civil jurisdiction, (Sections 49 and 60.)
2. In the event of being charged with any criminal offence, and subsequently, sequitted by his Consular authority contrary to the wishes ar sentiment of the Chinese, to be dobarred
