But apart from these continuous cases of smuggling of arms, which may or may not be a direct breach of the Protocol, we are in receipt of news reporting a very flagrant instance of how China ignores her Treaty vows. The authorities, especially in the Southern Provinces of China, are said to be obtaining very large quantities of war munitions from abroad and, if reports are true, and we have no reason for doubting their veracity, they are doing so openly and without the least attempt to disguise the fact. We learn that the China Merchants' Steam Navigation Co.'s steamer Irene arrived below Whampoa, near Canton, on AccORDING to telegrams received by local Saturday with a full cargo of gun materials, mandarins from the capitals of Human as well and convoying two juuks loaded with as Hupch, the high authorities there have, saltpetre.
