CHINESE AFFAIRS.
Pekin, Nov., 17
The dying Emperor’s valedictory decree urged diligent execution of reforms in order to be prepared to inaugurate a consitution in nine years’ time.
The Dowager Empress’s valedictory decree also refers favourably to constitutional reform.
It is officially announced that the Chinese scout the suggestion of foul play in the case of either the Emperor or the Dowager. Owing to admirable precautions taken by Tuauuhihkan no disorders occurred, and he advocated the selection of the new Emperor.
