settlement could be arrived aï other than the deportation of the Chinese. The authorities were asked if the Chinese could remain li arrangements were made for them to live in Kobe, and travel up and down the line to work every day, but the reply was in the negative,"
It is contended by Messrs. Nickel & Co. | that the Chinese employed by them at Takahama do not come under the heading of "labourers," as laid down in the Ordinance, ace- ing that thay are all skilled men. · We believe that the Chinese Consul at Kobe also takes this view and contends that the Chinese are entitled to treatment under the most-favoured. pation clause. An appeal has been made to Tokyo, we understand, by the Chinese Coniul at Kobe, and pending developments the Chinese workmen at Takahama are having a holiday at their employers' expents.
It certainly seems an anomaly that Cbinete tailors painters, printeri, etc., may féllow their avocations without interference in Kobe, and some even beyond the city limits,mat. Rék- kosan, for instance, and yet these man at Takabama ute'refused permission to work. - H the Japanese authorities do not show more toleration to the stranger within their gaten, they have scarcely the right to expect it from othern when the positions are revarsad.—fapan | Chronicle.
