movements of the Chinese capital. Accord- ing to this correspondent, far from Mr Dudgeon's mission being a failure, Mr Dudgeon returns to Shanghai after inter- views with the various members of the Diplomatie Body entisied with the result of the visit. At the time the report of the failure of the mission was put into circula ton, a contributor to our columite ventured to express the opinion that only by the ro fusal of the Diplomatic Body sa liston to bir Tudgeon's views could the mission be fairly utigmastised nun tail That is the view we endorse. The proposal to send Mr Dudgeon to Poking, to dinenes in an amicable and liberal spirit with the various

| Foreign Ministers the proposed tariff changes and cotton mill imposts, is to be most eordially cummended.. Wo do not know to whom the credit belongs for the proposal, but wo faci sure it is one which will receive the bearty sort of the whole of the toreign communities in China, In Shang- hairit is generally conceded that no better delegato could have been secured than Me Dudgeon, whose specialised knowledge of commercial intercourse with China and the difficulties that have been constantly devia ed by the mandarins fitted him to scuss with the Ministers what concessions might be readily yielded na the side of the foreign norchants and manufacturers, and what demands ought to be made of the Ulinesu Government in return for these conces sions. Whether the discussion was likely to product better results than the usual petitionary form of approaching the Foreign Ministers is problematic; but then the whole situation is pusaling. and if the foreign merchants do not beslir, themselves in the own behalf (und on behalf of the industrial communities in Europe and Americs) there is a danger of farther exactions being raised upon foreign imports without a corresponding mitigation of illegal, andarinic imports. For it would appear from the tone of the Euro- pean Press and public speakers that n feel. ing is growing up that China is entitled to rovision of her laris, and this fooling will be festered by the great financial houses interested in the Chinese loans and the gamniceing Powers and may even go so far as to support the Chinese aspect of the matter to the disregard of the more imediato necessities of foreign trading communities. Before it is setting there will be touch discussion both here and at Home, and it is to be hoped the attention drawn to the illegal charges um foreign imports may lead to a completo revolution in the financial arrangements of China and the settlement upon a proper hasis of the forsign trade with this badly governed country.
