What the tone of the articles was for which the papers were suspended we hate no means of judging, as the offending Issues. ware confiscated while passing through the Toat Ofice, and have therefore not reached us; but suit appears the Government has decided that any comment whatever will be regarded as an offence and load to suspension, we should pro- bably not be mach the wist even had the papers been received. It is a fair inference, merer, from the firm attitude adapted tavards the press that the policy decided upon is not expected to prově a popular one. In some quarters it is anggrated that the Foreign Ministers of Russia, France, and Germany have delivered what is virtaally en altistan to the Japanese Govern sent with respect to the settling of a date upon which the Liaokung peninsula is to be eva oisted, and calone is given to this contention by the restlessness exhibited in St. Petersburg at the delay that has taken place. One of the Russian papers in a recent iwe says "As regards the Chino-Japanese settlement, the Cabinets of St. Petersburg, Paris, and Berlin by no massus intend to allow the negoti tions about the additional indemnity to be paid by Uhlen for the eviation of the Liso tang peninsula, nor any other contentions mat ter between China and Japan, to be miedo an obatselo to the vacuation in question, the prompt completion of which in any case they demand as a meaxare famally promised them by Jama." Neverthes, it is very doubt, fold ither of the thres Powers concerned, with the rhe exception of Rain, he likely to proceed at present to the extreme of an alamatan. It is more probable that the meeting with the noting Minister for Foreign Affairs was for the purpose simply of ascertaining the date on which the peninsula would be seated and the extra indamuity ON CALOUTTA Japan rould nek for. Ar only four months bava as pes elapsed since Japan promised to surzebrler the peninsala to Chins, and consider ing that operations for the orsonation of the territory hara steadily proveded mine that time, even remonstranen concerning the delay would be out of phos.
