HONGKONG, 4th February, 1961 Most of us were inclined to believe that the acceptance by the Chinese Emperor of the preliminary points demanded by the Powers marked the first stage in the wearisome negotiations with the truculent Court at Hsianin, and that henceforth it would be easier to arrange the outstanding differences between China and the Western nations. Reasoning, however, from what has since taken place, it daily looks more as if the nominal acceptance of the terms was but yet another shifty device to throw dust in the eyes of the Powers, and gain time pending the eventualities ofmething turning up." The underhand dealings of China with Russia, of whatever nature they be, seen in some way connected, with the policy of delay. It is suggested that Cores is involved in the deal. According to Japa- nese reports Russia has recently been re commencing in Corea a policy of interfer. ence, and though in regard to Corea the peculiar sensitiveness of the Japanese as a nation on all topics concerning that peninsula, might lead us to lay the less stress on state- ments coming from Japanese sources, there is, we believe, too much eridence that: the communications between the Russian

representative and the Corean Court have been unfriendly. It is true that Russia from St. Petersburg has given a specific denial to all these reports; and

THE SERVICES AT SHANGHAI: Two Memoral Services were held at Holy Trinity Cathedral, Shanghai, to-day. The first was confined to the Army and Navy, including the officers of all nations, under the lead of Admiral Seymour and General Creagh. The troops present comprised Bluejackets, Marines, Artillery, Cavalry Rajputs, Gorkhas, Sikhs, and Baluchis.
