of pieture that everyone will love. It is entertainment well directed, wall noted and excellently portray- ed. There is not, a dull moment in the show from beginning to end.

Provisions of Agreement. 3. Paganon, referring to agreement signed by M. de Martel, May 19, 1030, said that it sanctions certain ameliorations in the stand- ing of the open ports in the thres Chinese provinces bordering on the Colony, and grants to China the right to establish Consula at Sai-

gom, then at Hanoi or Haiphong. On her part, China will recognizė the establishment of French Can- xuls at several towns.,

By a happy exchange in these Wenlings, the new agreement grante to Chinese residents of Indo-Chinn, as well as those under French

in jurisdiction who live

the southern provinces of the immenst Chinese republic, the most favour-- able conditions of residence and the fullest rights. France always reserves to herself the right of levying in this respect special taxes applied in Indo-China to Chinese citizens, taxes appertaining to the exercise of the special privileges which the Chinese enjoy in the country. From the Customs point of view the Convention suppresses any preferential Chinese tariff ap plicable to ·Sino-Indo-Chinese commerce in frontier regions.

Transit Tariff Question. One of the questions which be cupied the greatest time of the negotiatons is that of tingit tariffs which are applied to Chinese mer chandise passing through Tonkin.
