"How does China regard the development of ita resources by American enterprise?" Mr. Conger was naked.

As something to be welcomed," he replied. "At the court of the Emperor there is the most cordial reception of all American enterprises. China realizes that it has still vast resources to be developed, and it desires the incoming of American capital.”

The question was put to Mr. Conger: "How does China regard the pressure being brought to bear on it by some European powers"
