The prisoner was accordingly ordered to have his handa tled behind his back and then to have a rope attached to his hands, by means of which rope he was hoisted up. For some hours the misoner was kept dangling in mid-sir_with_the weight of his whole body on his arms, forced as they were out of their natural position.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT:)

February 23rd. It seems to be taken for granted in various quarters that, since H.B M. Consul here has been empowered to receive the money offered Inng ago by the Chinese officials as compensa tion for the Injuries inflicted on British subjects, In connection with the Wesuch riot, therefore that matter may be regarded as settled as far as the British Government la concerned.

communication was mad:

The British demands were not for money but for the punishment of the guilty, and for security against further outrages. In answer to these the Chinese officials beheaded two persons, and sentenced five others to various periods of pedal servitude, while to show their disapproval of the conduct of the two mandarins who so akame fully denied help to our murdered friends, both Were degraded, and one was deprived of

But, although these steps were taken, they were taken in such a way as practically robbed them of all value. The Chinese officials were so careful to make it plain that they were acting only because of the strong pressure which was being brought to bear upon them from without, and that apart from this pressure they would have done nothing, that the leaders of the riot movement were not at all discouraged. Nor have the officials since then, beyond issuing a few proclamations, done anything specially calculated to discourage them. So the matter stands to-day. It may be that the British Government is quite satisfied with the steps taken by the Chinese officials in con- sequence of its demands, but it is hardly likely 1 anyhow, it

As a matter of fact, however, it cannot be said yet that the money has been accepted. Although a week nga the Chinese officials were informed of the terms on which it was proposed to accept It, and also the Mission, the latter has not yet received it. Nor I believe has it reached H.D.M. Consul.

The matter of the Wusuch riot can in no sonic be regarded as settled; while there is no sign of any possible settlement of the Ichang riot being within sight. In addition to the necessarily heavy claims of private individuals, the bill of the British Government for the Ella, the Es, etc, must be a pretty heavy one. How it will all end none can tell.
