THE ANHUI CONCESSION."

Wo learn from the N.0. Daty News that Sir John Lister Kaye'a claim against the Chinesa Government, on account, of the

cancellation of the concessing he obtained, has been settled for £52,000 sterling.

The story of the Aphui concersion. remarks our contemporary, begins in the Year 1904 when the London and China Syndicate

WAS formed to exploit the Tungkanshan mines. Subsequently the Anhui gentry contended that work had not hos begun within the stipulated time and that the agréemout was accordingly void

On this plea they successfully blocked the development of the Tung kuazsban minda. Negotiations dragged on wearily fill in the beginning of "last year the Chiness" Government offered, if the Bradicate would consent to a scheme of joint working, with the Chinasa, to guar- antor that such an arrangement should be accepted by the Anbu goutry.
