With the Dalai Lama safe for the time being, the Chinėsa troops having pursued him with a rigour that justified the term "police" right to the Sikkim frostier, the aspect of the case changed somewhat. The transformation was partly due to the intelligence of the Dalai; for not feeling certain of a favourable reception la fodia, be announced on the frontier his latention of proceeding to Peking in order to lay his case personally before the Emperor THE H. A. L. Steamship Excidentally it may be somarked that if he really intends to visit Poking he certainly possesses moxa grit than is supposed; and otherwise, from India he will be fras to travel where be wills. if he stays there, the Govern meat most pension him, give bim suitable quarters, and gpard him; while it is also under the obligation of preventing him from indulg- ing in any form of intrigue.
By this time the general opinion of the Powers who wore not directly interested in the matter, was that Chica bad made a soripas blubder in not having discussed the matter with Britain, Russia and Japan; because Britain and Russia hovsmany Lamaist subjects and Japan, in addition to being directly in terested in the abstract matter of Buddhism is bound to support Britain in all matters affecting the ludian frontier..
Japan accordingly made representations to China on the subject, polating out wherein sho was an interested party, and to what extent China had made the situation scute by indulg- ing in hot-headed action. It then leaked out that China bad known for some days about the | Dalai Lama's messenger'and the contents of his dispatch. "The Times" corespondent at St. Petersburg, moreover, learned that the Dalai

which is rather more thas a priest should ex- | pect.in this diplomatic centre. Moreover addi. tional interest has been given to the Tibetan situation by the many side issues that have |manifested themselves at unexpected moments, Of cours the Dalai Lama, when he was [876. here a year ago, became personally acquainted with all the forelga Ministers, and as ibeņe are many Lumaists. in Peking one would on turally have expected that some of these people would have kept him in touch with passing events. But apparently he know very little about Peking's movements; for as soon as thé Chinese expeditionary force crossed the borders of Tibet the Dalai Lama seot a special mes- tenger to Peking bearing dispatches for the Ministers of Great Britain, America, Japan, Russia, Germany and France. Each missive. was addressed personally to the Minister-and this ona intended for America'ï represania- tiva was addressed to Mr. W. W. Rock- heil. Mr. Rockbill, it appears, was pleasant- ly impressed by the Dalai Lama. - He- thought the Dalai was a shrewd person with more than the average amount of intelligence; whereas many of Mr. Rockhill's confières failed to discóío any trace of ability in the Yellow pontiff,
