The Chinese Compounds.
United Press Association—Per Electric Telegraph—Copyright.
JOHANNESBURG, NOV 17 The Bishop of Pretoria and the ''Johannesburg Star" urge Lord Elgin to publish the gist ot Mr Justice Bucknil's conclusion relative to the moral condition of the Chinese compounds on the Rand. The Bishop declares that the insinuations made by some of the members of the House of Commons that the offences were condoned, reflect upon the character of the ""people. He asks to be told frankly the truth, and the worst. Personally, he believes that neither the truth nor the worst is so bad as the insinuations made would lead people to suppose. London, Nov 13 Mr Birrell speaking at Hanley, said: f Chinese l>bqur on the Rand has been killed; we must; clear our good name of this horrible and disgraceful infamy."
