TO THE EDITOE OF THE DAILY PREas." Sir, -The question of the hour seems to be i that of the probability of war between France sul China, and as it is one which may ba Tontilated with advantage, I presume you will be willing to affordase for any contributions towards its discussion which may be sent to you. To me nothing Rooms less likely than war be tween the two countries. By which party and in what mauzor would iuola a war be dammenced ↑ France certainly does not want to fight, Chine, and no lòng sa the latter dos met intorfere with her in Tonquin, no doclaration of war will dome from that site. Will China declare war with Franco? Ithick not. The only point at which she could even attempt to strike Prange would be in Cookin-Chinn, whils the whels of her own territory world be exposed to attack, · Chim cannot march to Paris, bat France son and would march to Peking. If China senés troops ocross | Baracter. the frontier into Tonquin without formal doola zation of war the French would treat them, as they will treat the Black Flaga, sitaply as bri. Precur
