The Trouble in China.
London, March 28. Eight anti-Christian rioters have been beheaded at Chang-sha in the province of Hunan. 1 - March 29. The Chinese Imperial Court is considering the question of removal to Kaiafingfu. The Marquis of Lansdowne stated in the House of Commons that the Anglo-German agreement applied to all China, including Manchuria. Britain was indisposed to carpingly criticise the Russian arrangements to temporarily protect the interests of Manchuria. The published versions of the convention appeared to infringe British rights there and elsewhere, and it would be wiser for Russia to publish the text of the convention, thus dissipating suspicions. Meanwhile Britain and Germany had advised China to refrain from private seperate agreements with any individual Power. Six Viceroys and seven Governors have protested against the Man- , churian Convention. Japan is gratified with the j British assurance, which is contrary to Count von BuloW’s statement, that Manchuria, is. included in the Anglo-German agreement. >
