April ?7—The flesl decision of the British government to retrain from meddling with (he Eastern ques tion as regards China and Japan, has been taken upon the advice already put of the British diplomats In Pekin and Toklo, who have been asked by tne government to report their view* »nd observations. It le likely, as the situa tion now appears that the conditions ot the treaty of peace, when scon with un prejudiced eyes, will show that Japan has won a complete victory, not only by force ot arntH, but In the held ot dip lomacy. The repo it* which were made after the Chinese New Year, Indicated that Japan was determined to dictate In Pekin terms far more rigorous than those exacted at Shlmonosekl. Lord Kimberly, secretary of state for for eign affairs, has received assurances from the British representatives In To klo th»t the present Japanese ministry are experiencing their last diiys of existence as a composite body. The British agent expresses his belief that the conditions of the treaty of peace, as already pub lished, are incapable of reduction in respect of itl' lr exactions and that the minimum of the Japanese claims is vastly greater than before tho war, when, as a matter of fuct, an accession of territory was the chief aim of the Mikado's government. It Is reported to the foreign office by the British agent at Tokto that Uouut Ito, I lie president ot the Japanese council of ministers, will be unable to govern much longer on accuunt of the tactics of Ihe party of opposition Id the diet In rejecting wttr measures snd refusing supplies, bringing tho executive chlnery to a standstill. Although ihe complete success of tlie war. wt-h me consequent revision of the existing trastlea has trestle subdued this spirit, there is no doubt that the tlo party will he overthrown If they accede to the demands of Ilusskt. What may huppen it they oppose llie ut-uiamlo 1 a matter of allll greraer thought. Lord Kimberly and his colleagues take.the same view of the situation, as that which Viscount Curson, M. I’., outlined on the eve of Ibe war, Clint It Ihe minister}- should fail It would be a genuine calamltx, not unly to Japan, but lliff European powers. The Brit ish government) ascribe the early and successful close of the war to the tact and cn parity of Count Ito, In spite oc the clamor «f a vast majority of the people of Japan who are still practically Insisting that Japanese troops shall oc cupy Pekin. In view of this teellng the British and rsher European repre sentatives In Chinn and Japan have ad vised the government that any proposal that Japan render any part »f the ceded terthory should be ultimately necessary or not, would be likely to Jeopardize the Japanese constitution, which occurrence would Inevitably undo the greater part of the work which has been done In Japan within the last quarter of n century. Inquiries on this subject have brought from Chin' sources a great deal ot Inform:Wlun tn the same vein, though couched In cyni cal terms. Mr. Pickering, nn official who has served long an.l faithfully in the Brit' ish service, nnl who lias l.ttely been employed In the Intelligence department lice to report upon tho Cntnese wo, mAjr»: •■Th ■ i u Inevitable.

Wir. not remain content un til she gets plrl of Man- hur1a.*“ Germany will act merely as a cuckoo lo place her young' In the neeti of tho other n u to make money out of our markets and un- der-eel! us.” The niw sentiment le expressed by other official resident* ID China and Ja pan who have had an opportunity to ob- servo the situation. These gentlemen also add In a most candid fashion that the United State* Is tho only power that has enhanced Its reputation In the East liner- the beginning of th* quarrel and subsequent war. They alOo declare that the Untied State* Is th* only power that Japan and Chin* respect and trust. They believe that th* American goverement I* noting honorably and Is not making eith er of the warring countries a tool for tho advancement of Its own eade. The entl- Japaneee proteat Issued by Franc* Is re garded generally as a mer# form to sat isfy Russia. Certainly If It la proposed to attach Japan, th* proposal will be defeated la th* Chamber of deputies. M. Felix Mo line, a tr.either of the chamber of depu ties and editor of Le Republlque Krun- calae, writes In lit* paper on th* aiAJect: "Franec bolstering Ohlna and assisting her to recover her strength may eventu ally mean an Invasion of Tonkin by the Black Flags.'* The article proceed* to a»y: ■'Russia must not hnogtne that ah* can lead us where She pleases. W* are In an excellent position with Japan; do not destroy that position.’' M.

As for the Independence of Core* and the Interior of China, that t* all humbug.” A good Judge or the eftnetton In Parts wittingly sums up the situation thus: •There Is no Irresistible Impulse of pub lic opinion In fsvpr of nance's drawing her sword In behalf of her rid enemy.
