PEKING'S POLITICAL

PERSONALITIES.

CABINET MAKING NOT EASY.

BUANGHAL Aug, 21, Peking reports the political sitoa tion much easier to-day. A mandate inued last night appointed Lin Tai Kuang civil governor of Kansu. Chin Yung Yen, the President's delegate, returned from Peitaiho lost night and reported that. Kao Eng Hung was willing to resume his duties on cou dition that hereafter the ministries of finance, education. and communica tions jointly bear the responsibility for educational expenses and the the teachers and education staff do not receive tunds directly from the minis try of communications bat from the ministry of education itself. If these conditions are strictly observed Kan Eng Hang will have no further objec. tiub to resume oflice. It is reliably reported that the president will agres to these suggestions.

There was a large crowd of fans present, and the Bwatow Relief Fund was swelled to the extent of nearly $500 more.

Saturday's encounter was the fourth between the two leading combinatione in the Colony, and with the Americans victorious, the honours are now equal- y divided each team having won two games. A final test match to decide the supremacy will be played later in the season.

The Americans victory was due largely to Brow 'a pitching, and had he been better sup ported by his fielders. the Chinese would probably have suffered a bigger defeat. The American's fielding was at its worst in the fifth innings when the Chinese scored six of their saven home runs, and thinen locked black
