REPORTS have for some little time past been in circulation to the effbet that Rule bas made arrangments with Chim that her feet abull winter at Port Arthur. This news has been cabled to Londen by the sea correspondent, with the addition that Russia bas scoured various other ad- vantages watside the favoured nation clause, and the telegram would appear to have thrown the London press into a ztate of core excitement. The situation in the Far East is undoubtedly a critical one and requires to be closely watched by the British Government. The Times telegran, however, in the verion given of it by Reuter, seems somerlini cauingless and does ng justify any special alarm. It is not in the power of China to confer any privileges outside the favoured nation clause and
