Grace & Co, to take care of a lot of hures shipped to China for use of the German cavalry. They

Mr. arwood, in seconding the resolution, snid he desired to call attention to one serious Daylight aspect of the matter so far as it affected Lanca- shire. China was the second largest customer- Lancashire possessed in revard to cotton, and the people of Lancashire felt that if the agree ment were allowed to be concluded it would start a principle full of danger and threatening to their trade. They recognised the difficulty of the Chinese problem. In view of the attitude of Russia he thought we were justified in being anxious and watchful, and in taking some firm stand if occasion should necessitate.

When the live, stock was safely delivered at Nagasaki, however, and they were ready to return, the trouble began. Their contracts called for return passage in the European steerage, and at Nagasaki they were furnished with tickets in accordance with the con- tract. They took passage on the steam- ship Cip-af Rio de Janeiro-and-sailed from Nagasaki on November, 14th of the same year, but in place of the European steerage, they allege, they were quartered in the Asiatic steemge among Mongolians and Malays, to their great bodily discomfort and mental suffering.

TOKIO, April 25th.
"It is confidently reported that Mr. Hayashi, Japanese Minister to Seoul, has not been re- ived in audience by the Corean Emperot; Bt the Japanese authorities state that even if M. Hayashi has not been received in audience bythe Emperor it will not affect outstanding quistioms between the two countries. A Seoul desuch has been received here stating that the Japanese Minister has lodged a demand for the construction of wireless telegraph stations and cables on the Gorean coasts, and the extension of the Seoul telegraph with the Corcan Government. The demand has no re- ation whatever to the recent loan affair, in structions relative thereto having been given Mr. Hayashi some time ago.¬Aŝaki.

HONGKONG'S DEFENCES.
March 29th. In Committee of Supply to consider the Navy Estimates, Mr. Warner maintained that the defences of Hongkong were in a hopeless con- dition, and asked for particulars of the expendi ture now proposed. Mr. Pretyman, in reply, said the question of the guns at Hongkong was one with which the War Office were solely concerned. Captain Morton said he hoped that now Russia had appeared in the China Sea the naval officers would be encouraged to learn, Russian as the officers of the Indian. Army were.

On the vote of £119,200 for establishments for military education, Captain Norton pointed out that only £550 was put down for promoting efficiency in gauges. This was exactly the same sum as had been voted last year, and he regretted that the War Office had not seen t to offer an increased incentive to our officers to study modern languages. Mr. Richards dwelt on the absurd inadequacy of this item of £550 He thought that non-commissioned officers should be taught French and German. A know- ledge of Chinese might be useful to our officers, Mr. Balfour said he had considerable sympathy with the views expressed, and he had no doubi that it would be of advantage to both the naval and military services if there were more know. ledge of foreign languages among the officers. It was rather hard to suggest Chinese us a use ful accomplishment, and he had been informed by gentlemen familiar with Chinese trade that the common means of communication even among the Chinese themselves was by what was known as pidgin-English.
THE SIEGE OF TIENTSIN. (April 2nd.) Mr. Yerburgh asked the Secre tary of State for War whether the Government had in any way acknowledged the service rendered by Mr. James Watts, British subject, who during the recent siege of Tientsin rade from there to Ta-ku, through a country swarm- ing with Boxers, to convey information to Admiral Bruce as to the serious state of affairs then prevailing at Tientsin, and whether the. German Government had decorated Mr. Watts.
Viscount Cranborne, who replied, said: His Majesty's Government have expressed to Mr. Watts their high appreciation of the gallant and distinguished service rendered by him to the European community at Tientsin during the siege, but he is unfortunately, not eligible by existing warranta for any British order or medal The German Emperor has signified his desire to confer a medal upon Mr. Walts.
THE MANCHURIAN AGREEMENT. Sir E. Ashmead-Bartlett asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he could now give the House any definite information as to the Russo-Chinese Agreement -regarding Manchuria, and especially as to whether His Majesty's Government was sup porting the Chinese Government in their re fusal to sign this agreement,
Viscount Cranbome: I am not able to add anything to that which I stated on March 30th in regard to Manchuria.
