THE STATUS OF CHINESE. BRITISH SUBJECTS
(31st October.) Some three months ago we referred to a grievance which Chinese merchants in Bangkok had against the British Consul at Swatow, and which they proposed to bring to the notice of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. They complained of the want of recognition with which they were treated by the Consular authorities at the northern port, and argued that, although Asiatics were not registered in Bangkok as British subjects without first having their title to the nationality strictly investigated, they were refused recognition as such in Swatow, despite the production of passports and registration certificates signed by British officials in Bangkok. On account of this refusal to recognise their true and
proper nationality the merchants, many of whom have been for years past interested in the trade which exists between the

It is recognised on all sides that there are many Openings for trade, and the blame for the lack of success of Brilish firms, though commonly ascribed to the supine attitude of British Consular official towards the efforts of British merchants, undoubtedly lies with the firms themselves who make no serious effort to push their goods in opposition to those of other countries. There was time. when the British merchant had very few rivals in the field. Now he has many and the number is being greatly increased every year, and unless be is going to be swamped the sooner an attempt is made to get out of the ancient groove, and the front. to confront altered circumstances with influence over China since the upheaval of greater readiness, the better chance will hergoo is a fact which has attracted little have of winning back much that he has already lost. Otherwise, as Mr. Jamieson concludes, there is reason to fear that British trade will remain stationary, and cessation of a forward movement, as a rule, connotes retrogression.
