AFFAIRS IN CHINA.
By Telegraph-Press Association-Copyrigh:
London, Jan. 23. General Yung-Lu’s daughter has been betrothed to the Emperor of China’s brother. A Yangtse Viceroy declares that Yung-Lu held the keys of the Imperial arsenal, preventing modern guns being used against the foreign legations at Pekin, and saved the Europeans of the Yangtse provinces by telegraphing to the Viceroys to disobey the edict ordering their destruction.
The Daily Telegraph says the outlook in China is promising. Yuansbika, Governor of Chili, is friendly, and he is the strongest ruler China has had for years.
