There is a suspicion that the Chinese Cabinet is inclined to apply this provision of the Constitution more strictly than was intended by the draft- ers, but, in view of the alight amount of trust that is at present reposed in the Cabinet in China, the Ministers can hardly be blamed for wishing to place the responsibility for their actions on the National Assembly wherever possible.

the mediation of the British Ambassador was unsuccessful, since it would have established a precedent for the settlement of other disputes by the same meana.” As long as China is given up to disorder, unable to regulate her affairs, and con- test to let matters take their course, so long will she and herself involved in die putes with other Powers. This being the case, it would be much wiser for her to get a third Power to mediate than to conduct the negotiations directly. If the dispute with the French authorities had been settled by the mediation of the British Ambassador, it would have estab. lished a precedent for the settlement of other cases in the same manner.
THE negotiations over the affray at and between Chinese Chengebiatun Japanese soldiers still continue to drag their weary course. Japan has put for ward her demands and appears inelined to adhere to them Chins has put off giving & definite reply, and in the mean time a good deal of agitation against the demands has been created in various parts of the Republic. Recently Japan made further efforts to induce the Chinese Government to settle the ques tion, and even went so far as to accuse it of fostering the agitation, although there is no evidence se to this. The Chinese pleaded, as an excuse for the delay, that the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs weg vacant. Since then it has been filled, by the appointment of Dr. WU TING-TANG, who is credited with a good deal of astuteness. Whether thi astubeness will lead him to further pro- rastinations remains to be seen.
