ABOLITION OF TORTURE
IN CHINA,
An Epoch-Making Edict.
(BY A CORRESPONDENT TO THE STANDARD.} While everyone is discussing the advent of religious toleration in Russia, only the briefest notice his been taken of the aboli tion of torture in China, news of which has boon cabled from Peking; yet the one event is an epochmaking as the other. If one had to describe in precise language the difference between Western and Eastern civilisation, one would almost be reduced to the distine- tion that in the East criminals are still. tortured, in the West they are not. We have all, as nations, committed torturein our time, but when we adopted what is popul arly known now as Western civilisation we abolished the rack and the thumb scraw. In fact, the Middle Ages leave off at the precise point where it is considored legit- imate to maltreat a prisoner until he con fesses his crime.
In China, the old order still remains. Nothing can be more humane than the 1376 theory of Chinese justice; nothing more cruel than the practice. In theory, no man can be punished unless he confesses his guilt, and he must sign his own death- warrant. In practics, he is tortured until ho does confess, and then is punished for a crime which, in many cases, Le never com
nitted. The distinction between torturo and punishment is a fine one, and adapted to the subtlety of the Chinese intelligence. Not many months ago I went to call upon a Chinese judge at the place of justice. Ite was summer weather, and one side of the building was entirely open to the courtyard ́ through which one entered the building.

Inside the courthouse judges of various de- green were seated on benches behind long desks, just as they do in England; the only difference was that they wore gorgeous silke, and drowsily drank tea from little china basins to while away the afternoon.
After some conversation; it occurred to the chiof judge that his visitors might like to see a trial. So he called for No. 19.

the most important feature of this kind of justice. Por centuries justice has been a complete failure in China. The innocent are tortured while the guilty escape; and although there are infinitely more capital punishments in China thau in any other country in the world, brigandage flourishes -now an-ever it did, from the Hun-hu-tses in Manchuria to the pirates in the Canton Rivér.
And, apparently, the edict goes beyond the question of torturing critainals to obtain evidence. There are some punish. ments which aro in themselves tortures- For example, thia famous Ling-chi, o.

If a son murders his parent, or a wife does away with her husband, then the thousand cata are applied. A husband, on the other сксаро with a hand, may kill his wife and reprimand: To abolish this practice of elicing criminals, to death, even though the punishment was rarely inflicted, is. in itself a great roform, because the dreaded Ling chi has for centuries boen aro- proach against Chinese civilisation. There are, of course, other forms of punishment sufficiently inhumane. For example, a man may be supported on a pile of bricks Each day a with a rope round his neck. brick is removed from the pile until the victim is gradually strangled to death. Have seen this happen in the native city of Shanghai, within a stone's throw of the foreign settlement with its western coles of justice. It is not clear whether the new edict does away with such minor exhibi- tions of cruelty. But to abolish the more hideous forms of punishment, and to re move the preliminary torture which makes capital punishment, when it comes, a relief these are innovations suflicient in them- selves to alter--the whole complexion_of_ Chinese society.

It is certain to be needed before the winter, is over, and results are much more prompt and satisfactory when it is kept at hand and given as soon as the cold is contracted and before it has become settled in the system, In almost overy instatice a severe cold may be warded off by taking this remedy freely as soon as the first indication of the cold appears.

Recourse was had to construction would be given a proference. the rule of law that if time is given to a debtor the surety is discharged. I am of opinion that this rule has no application to the case of a compradore and his surety when time is given to Chinese customers whose liabilities come within the guarantee application it would apply to the compra. dore as well ne to his surety. But the very nature of the duties which the com. pradore undertakes show that he is privy to the granting of time, if in fact, he him- self had not granted it. The rule, however, might be brought in if time had been gran. ted to the compradore himself. This does not appear to have been the case. There Was a proviso in the agreement to the effect that the compradoro was not to be called upon to a greater extent than $5,000, in one month. It seemed to me at Grst sight that thig proviso might possibly be constructed as meaning t at thoro should be la monthly rendering of ac. counts, and that if that had not been done it might have been tantamount An affidavit to the granting of time. was put in by the defendant firm to the effect that the plaintiff's interests in the compradore's office was looked after by some one representing him. If this affidavit stood uncontradicted It was unnecessary to construe the proviso. The plaintiff was called, in order, it was said, to contradict it. His evidence was more than confused and contradictory, it even went beyond his counsel's instructions, as he evidently tried to deny that his guarantee extended to $16,000. After carefully examining his statements I came to the conclusion that the effect of his evidence was that the ac counts of the compradore's office were in fact sent to him by the compradore once a year, and that he had taken an active part with the compradore in getting a mutual friend, one Young, into the compradore's office, see no reason to doubt, in this respect, either the plaintiff's evidence or the defen ant's
