NOTES ON NATIVE AFFAIRS,
[From the MC. D.. News,]
TUNG F1- LAN
The Universal Gasette denies the truth of the recent/report of the execution of, the notorious Kansu General, Tung Euhsiang, who was rumoured to have been ately one to death by treachery. That paper-declares that there is no such intention as putting Tung to death, the fact being that the Empress Dowager, while at Photing, issued a secret edict ordering his imprisonment for life (whenever they could get hold of him). This secret edict, continues that paper, was issued on the 4th instant, but for apvinus reasons, it has not been officially published.
On the other hand, our native correspondent at Peking writes as follows:-'am informed by an official who accompanied the Court from Hsian to Peking that the Empress Dowager is exceedingly apprehensive lest Tung Fuchsiang

She repeatedly asked the Grand Council what should be done, but none seemed able to devise anything. She therefore, on her own initiative, sent a certain official of Tnotaj rank, who used to be on terms of intimacy with Tung, to Kansu to do what he could in getting Tung to disband as many as possible of the 14,000 men he bas under his immediate command. It would appear that at first, when this "friend" of Tung's arrived at the latter's encampment (where it is not stated-Translator.} the intend- ed victim was suspicious and refused to see his visitor, Eventually, through the good offices of the Colonel of one of Tung's regiments, the. Empress Dowager's secret agent obtained an interview, when the following conversation ensued "Speaking of the events at Peking?" quoth Tung Fuchsiang, "I was merely obey ing the secret orders of Princes Tuan and Chuang when I attacked the Legations and stew, foreigners; I did nothing against the Throne. Prince Tuan has repeatedly exhorted me to rebel, but I refused every time. So long
As the Throne does not molest me and allows me to live out my life, I will never raise my hand against any one." To this the visitor replied-- "The Throne has no ill will against you at all The fact is, there is not sufficient money to pay the war indemnity to foreign nations. Now if you would stand well with the Empress Dow- ager, you cannot do better than help the Government-to economise by disbanding, say, *10,000 of your present force, which will be a great annual saving to Government, whilst on the other hand the Empress Dowager will be delighted at this substantial manifestation of your loyalty. You will by this step also lessen people's suspicions of your future intentions. I can then guarantee that no harm will befall

EDUCATION.
NATIVE FEARS.
Writing from Tianfu, Shantung, a cor iespondent of the N. C. D. News says;-
During the last month a number of interest. ing conversations have been had with the candidates who have flocked to Taianfu for examination. One of the most interesting of these was with reference to the various schools for Western learning. The purpose of these is. quite a puzzle to the majority of the men. As usual they account for what they do not under. -stand in their own way, and also as usual there
is no little plausibility in their explanations. If there is one thing more than another in which the Chinese are adepts, it is in getting up plausible stories in which there is just a little bit of truth, but which point to conclusions as far as possible from what is reasonable. The insistence la that all these éducational schemes point to the old bugaboo of territorial acquisi tion. It was suggested by way of reply to this interpretation of events, that if there had been any teal purpose. to usurp the powers of government, that when the Emperor and all his court were in exile and the Chinese
Tung Fu-hsiang seemed pleased and finally consented. But so soon as Tung, actually disbands the majority of his troops, there need be no surprise felt if news comes later on of Tung Fu-hsinng's premature death. I further learn that orders have also been sent to Sung Fan (Manchu), Viceroy of Shin-Kon, whoso headquarters are at Lanchob, the capital of Kansu, to see what he can do with Tung Ft- hsiang...
THE PRESIDENT OF THE GRAND COUNCIL
"Hitherto," writes a correspondent, "the custom of the dynasty has been to have a Prince as President of the Grand Council, but
since leaving Hsian the Grand Secretary Yung
has so far filled that post. the Empress Dowager has no confidence in Prince Ching who, she says, Incks firmness and strength of character, being always afraid of assuming responsibility. Prince Li, who resigned the Presidency when he joined the Court at Hsian in September or October 1900 is considered too slow to refill the post, and so. Yung Lu is still President of this most important and powerful Council,
