THE CHINESE WAR.
(by ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH. —COPYRIGHT.)
(PER PRESS ASSOCIATION.)
Received this day at 9 12 am. London, March 20.
Acknowledging the assistance rendered in China by the intervention of England, America, and Japan, Ching confirmed Morrison’s Sunday message that Russia invokes an unpublished agreement to show that the Saankaikwan new Chang Railway Concession is a breach of her rights, Ching admitted its existence. Morrison is convinced that Li Hung Chang’s secret agreement in 1896 was the first of a series of such documents. China ought to be compelled to disclose them, otherwise the restoration of stability in the far East is hopeless. It is reported at Port Arthur that troops have been ordered to Tientsin. Ninety marines replaced the Sikhs at Tientsin siding. The Fusiliers are expected to arrive today. The Australians at Pekin started from Tientsin on Tuesday.
