[By Ei.iiontic Tnr.K<:uarll —Cop Yiursiit. 1 London, June 20. Tiik Government of China are endeavouring to arrive at some satisfactory solution of the Chinese difficulty. It is stated that China is dissatisfied with the Treaty of Tientsin, and reluctant to ratify the American treaty, and a treaty with Britain on a similar basis would not he entertained ollieia lly. China regards the singling out of the inhabitants of that country for restriction as invidious, offensive, and uncalled for. A leading Chinese authority remarks:—Let Australia imitate Bismarck's passport policy, amend the Immigration Act, ani allow none to lie admitted unless approved by the British agent at the port uf embarkation. It is believed that if this were done China would not object to a restrictive policy, provided it were applied to all foreign Powers. WEllington, Friday. The Hon. R. Oliver arrived last night, and has interviewed the Premier. It is not known what action the Government will take with reference tu the decisions of the Conference.
