exercised over the purchase of arms and ammunition by the various provincial authorities, it is generally believed that there can be seen a strengthening of the power of Peking over the provinces, re- marks the N.-C. Daily News. Up to 8 short time ago the provincial officials were more or less able to make their own arrangements with the importers of arms, and had the authority to pass them through the ports, but as matters now stand, this can be done only with the sanction of Peking,
This does not mean that the provinces are no longer negotiating for the purchase of arms and ammunition, for inquiry in Shanghai shows that in several cases the demand is considerable, but unless orders are accompanied by approval from the capital, it is impossible to obtain the huchow necessary for importation.
