THE FRANCO JAPANESE AGERKMENP
The publication of the text of the Franco- Japanese Agreement bus naturally, created a stir in the Chiness world, but the affect pre! duced, if the pronouncements of the Chinese presi are any indication of it, is quite the raverse of that on Foreigner as expressed by the tone of the British press: Oof Dawspaper can see nothing in the Agreement to conerate- Iate China with and can not say with any show of unction that the integrity of our country is more strongly assured by the consum of the entente or that the peace of the Far East is rendered more secure, so y
Nearly all the papers realize the importance of the Agreement in its effect on Ching, though that such an Agreement could be effected at all came somewhat as a surprise, to... The traditional and ionate contempt. of the white race for she'yellow race would seem to ba: An unsurmountablo obstacle to bring about any understanding, and yet the world is treated to the spectacle of firstly an Anglo-Japanese Alliance and now Franco-Japanese Agreement, an agreement which further receives the moral support of Giest Britain and Russia. – By the conclusion of the Agreement iwo nations, if we exclude the contracting parties, ate directly or indirectly affected by it, namely, Germaný. and China. The former is made, to feel her isolated condition, while the interests of the lalter are placed in greater jeopardy than des fore..

What strikes the Chinese press as somewhat meaningless is the eternal reiteration on the part of censin Powers of their intention 'to. respect the independence and integrity of Chias. As one of the papers declared, such a statement. cho only tickle the care of our effete and blind Government, but has not's sufficient ring of sincerity in it to deceive the people. By the terms of the Agreement, the influence of Frișce and Japari in the Chinese. Empire is greatly strengthened. Whatever has been leased from the Chinese Government is now invested with almost the rights of occu pation, and whatever has not been leased bul borders on leased territory is in danger of being inclosed within the same.
