Chinese Affairs.
General Yung-lu’s daughter has been betrothed to the Emperor of China’s brother.
The Yangtze Viceroys declare that Yung-lu, who was Commander-in-Chief of the Northern armies, hold the keys of the Imperial arsenal daring the Boxer troubles in Pekin, and prevented modern guns being used against the foreign Legations. He also saved the Europeans in the Yangtze provinces by telegraphing to the Viceroys to disobey the edict ordering their destruction. The “ Daily Telegraph ” says the outlook in China is promising. Yimn-shi-kai, the Governor of Ohi-li, is friendly, and is the strongest ruler China has had for years.
