PHILIPPINES AFFAIRS.
A number of old friends of General Aguinaldo resident in Hongkong, who are carryin: on reguler correspondence with the latter, stoutly deny the allegations contained in a special telegram from Hongkong published by the New York World on th December, that (4) "the Filipino junta ut fiengkong adviseil Aguinaldo to place himself at the mercy of the United States" (the Filipinos in Hong kong announced that Aguinaldo is ready to surrender if Consul General Wilian will receive him at Manila." These close friends of the Philippine Leader say that there is, as far as they are aware, not a vestige of truth in or justification for these fights of imagination, They say they never suggested for did they of such a thing) anything of the ever.dream kind to General Aguinaldo or anyone else. Ou the contrary, they say they have received letters setting forth that the National Government is as fully determined as ever before to continue the struggle for independence.
In view of the well known fact and as is admitted by President McKinley in his Message of 5th December to Congress that the future of the Philippines rests with Congress," and after all that has occurred in the islands during the past year and the stubborn resistance offered by the Filipinos to the establishment of American authority throughout the archipelago, is certainly seems improbable that on the ere of the assembly of Congress the Philippine Leader should have either directly or indirectly, nude a communiqué of the nature attributed in him by the Hongkong correspondeut of the New York paper.

During the past week every one. has been asking when the new Governor started from Hsiaochun Camp, and when he might be ex pected at the capital. A few days before Christmas a tremendous snow-storm with a high wind of long continuance drifting the snow greatly impeded travel, upsetting every calculation. But his Excellency has probably reaclied his destination by this time, and it is a matter of the greatest interest to watch how long a time will elapse before his presence begins to be felt. Three week's caniping of his troops at Techou on the edge of the pro- vince luas been for the most part entirely with out effect, except upon a few local laser camps in that country: This is because there is a deeply rooted conviction that these troops have no relation to the suppression of the uprising, but will be as useless as those belong ing to the province have for the most part prov- ednot always indeed, through their own fattit. Meantime the reign of terror in many counties has continued in a somewhat mikler way than before, but in a degree sufficient to cause acute misery to a great number of people, mainly Roman Catholics and Protestants, though a few outsiders have begun to be implicated also. In ag these cases the local officials have consistentlyHill, reported that within their borders all is "peace and tranquility," and if there were any rumeurs to the contrary, it was because the foreigners persisted in listening to the unfounded anis- representations" of their clients. These official denials of the must flagrant outrages have been tossed about by an incessant repercussion from the district Magistrates in the Taotais, and from them to the Foreign Office in Peking, and thence by the appropriate channels back again, the result being that in most cases nothing | whatever has been done toward fighting the temible wrongs which are illuminated by the glare of burning villages and pillaged homes.
IN THE CHIMLA PROVINCE
there have been at least three engagements during the past week betwen the troops and the Boxers, one of which was about ten If to the north-west of the city of Chingchou. The soldiers tepuit that on this occasion about sixty were killed, and a hundred taken prisoners. many of whom were released on the security of any one who would testify that they were only harmless villagers. Even so there still remain fifty or so in custody, some of whom are leaders. fa cach case these seera to have been Buddhist priests, a fact which thowa considerable light on the animus of the rising. The other actions were also destructive to the Boxers, who are badly armed, and can make no proper stand. But they have contrived to get into waiversal circulation the industriously propagated report that all those who were killed were only innocent spectators, whereas the genuine losers are still assembled, and alleged to be anxious to by conciusions with the troops from Lutai, whe have defeated them once, and could easily do it a hundred times in succession. The London. Mission Station of Hsiaochang in the sub- prefecture of Chichou has been the centre of storm of ruin, eighteen of their villages having been pillaged, and the immunity of their mission compound only secured by the presence of a body of eighty cavalry and infantry, and a large supply of arms in the possession of those who were in a measure beleaguered. The arrival of four Generals within this district with a large number of regiments, ought to put an end to the disgraceful turbulance with which this region has been cursed for more than half a
ear. But there, as in Shamung

In foreign circles some lule stir has beco caused by the railway concessions granted to Belgium, against which the British Minister is said to have pretested, on the ground that the line from Kalong to
onaafu was formerly demanded by Peking Syndicate and refused, and we are supposed to have obtained from China an Assurance that no privileges would be granted to other powers which we cannot participate in, or have an equivalent. Quite as significant and quite in harmony with this concession is a recently sent in memorial from the acting Governor of Shansi against minning and rail way operations in that province, that they may This is of course a be stopped immediately. direct and flagrant breach of China's contract,
