That is Calculated to Wake up
The Peking people.
Loudon, Aug. 27.—The Pe
king correspondent of the Daily
M ail says:
“The situation has suddenly
become acute. The relations be
tween Tsung-Li-Yamen and Sir
Claude MacDonald, the British
Ambassador, are strained to the
point of rupture. Sir Claude
MacDonald has intimated that
any failure by China to observe
Cieat Britian’s wishes will be
accepted as a casus belli.
“In support of Sir Claude
MacDonald the fleet has been
concentrated at W i-Hai-Wet
and Han-Kow, and all the wai
sh.ps under 5,000 tons have been
mobilized in the Yang-Tse river
The naval demonstration i>

has abandoned the policy of th.

policy of spheres of influence .
diplomatic conferences hav
been of constant occurrenc
within the last few days. Lord

“Great Britain is willing to
duop her protest in respect to the
Nui-Chang railway, but Russia
is required to cancel her agree
ment with China that the coun
try having the financial interest
’diould arbitrate in disputes con
nected with the Peking Han-
Kow railway.
“The negotiations are confined
to Peking. The British ambassa
dors at St. Petersburg and
Peking are in close communica
tion.”
The Daily Mail’s correspond
ent at Hong Kong telegraphs:
“The British consul at Kiung
Chau Heinan has asked the
American consul at Canton to
urge the viceroy to send soldiers
o Nodea, near Hoi How, to
protect the lives and property of
American missionaries there,
vho have been obliged to II ie
or their lives from Nodeau and
<eek the protection of the British
consul at Hoi How.
Todav the American consul at
Canton notified the viceroy of
the state of affairs, and request
ed him to immediately telegraph
peremptory orders to the officials
of the disturbed distiict to dis
perse the rioters and protect tin
lives and property of the Amer
leans.
“Reports just received from
lalnan indicate renewed succes
t' on the part of the Triad society,
who, strengthened by a hordt
of pirates, looted and burned a
number of villages in the Hoi-
How district on August 19tli.
The British consul appealed to
the toatal to protect the threat
ened Americans, and soldiers
were displaced who succeeded
in rescuing the n and escorting
them from Nodea to Hoi-How.’’
A special dispatch from
Shanghia says violent scenes are
reported to have occurred be
tween Sir Claude McDonald, the
British minister, and M Pavlbff,
the Russian charge d’aff tires,
owing to the latter’s command
ing the Tsung-Li-Yamen to
break its agreement with the
Hong Kong bank under pain of
the czar’s strong displeasure.
The Chinese are inclined to obey
M. Pavloff, seeing that the Brit
ish confine themselves to verbal
protests.
The position is now worse
than ever, all the Russian ships
having returned to Port Arthur,
while the British vessels are as
sembling at Wei-Hai-Wei, and
Chee-Foo. Extreme activity
prevails ashore at Port Arthur.
