Chinese Affairs.
The fact of the conditions cabled on the 22nd being made applicable to the Yaugozse Valley, and not to the whole of China, is considered invidious towards Great Britain, and framed in the exclusive interests of Germany and France, whose conditions are similar.
Prince Clung has now asked Germany to extend the stipulation to the whole of China, thus removing the implication that Great Britain’s interests are menaced in the Yangtze Valley. The Tunguses, or native banditti, are alarmingly active in Manchuria. Russia is not attempting to suppress them, though she threatens to reoccupy the province if the railway is in] ured. China petitioned the Russian Legation for permission to send 1000 troops against the bandits, but an evasive reply was received. Meahwhile, the banditti plunder with impunity.
