BARON SUYEMATSU'S COMPLAINT.
THUNDERS FROM THE "THUNDERER."
The text of the complaint sent by Baron Suya. matau with reference to his treatment on the Ziefen appears in the latest mail papers. To the ordinary reader the squabble appears a very petty affair and quite unworthy the prominence given to it. It was all about a chair and where it should be placed. In the course of his letter to the Times Baron Suyematsu wrote:-in

At Southampton these three Japanese were given seats in the dining saloon at the end of a table, that is to say, the lowest seats in the ball, At Gibraltar several passengers ianded, but the vacant seats were given to new passengers. These compatriots of mine, of course, knew that I was going to embark from Genoa, and restrained, so they say, their feelings in the hope that I, at least, may be treated with some courtesy. When, however, i embarked I was given a seat which was actually the last seat at the end of the table on the opposite side of those three and next to a Chinese student.

They are ticated no beller than we are, for they were given their seats at first at the end of another table. With whatever contempt the Chinese Empire may be viewed by some Occidentals, it is only natural that a treatment such as this should be resented, though silently, and his Excellency, together with his family, was, when I embarked at For nigh two Genoa, already dining at a separate small side. table at his own preference. years we have done our best to behave like the civilised people of the West, and I for one have done all I could to promote every good. will between the East and West, but the result appears not a bit better in some quarters of the West. When we calmly think about it it airaost saddens our heart. We shall certainly not fail to tell our countrymen of the humiliat- ing circumstances we are subjected to, and warn them to emulate Occidental civilisation more and more, so that the time many come when we may be treated with an appropriate civility.-K.

THE "TIMES" COMPLACENT. The Times came out with a vigorous edi. torial in which it said: The whole story is one which must. create a painful impression, since it is manifest that Baron Suyematsu and his friends, who are perfectly versed in the uvages of European society and the prescrip- tions of ordinary good manners, believed them. selves to have been slighted and treated with less consideration than all right-thinking Euro- prans would recognise as their duc, Y'st we cannot but hope and believe that there was, at any rate at the outset, only a regrettable misunderstanding on both sides and no international discourtesy on the the authorities of the ship."

is to show how the coming of love blinds its possessor to all else in the world. And in the six stories, which have their setting in Egypt, Jerusalem, Damascus and the near East pe nerally there is real dramatic power and intensity of realism. The first story tells of an I-dian Civil servant who, abandoned by his wife for the pursuit of fashion, meets a native girl who takes complete possession of his senses. They live an idyllic life for a time, utterly heedless of the remarks of Indianship whatever."
But the discarded wife discovers, society. through the services of some kind friend, that she is needed in India and she packs, up her baggage and seeks the swillest boat to carry her to her husband. Not that she has any love for him, but she objects to the tales that are current and wishes to spoil his
