CHAOS IN CHINA.
A DICTATOR WANTED. POWERS* DEMANDS REJECTED. (bt cable—press association—coinwoST.) (AUSTRALIA* AND S.S. CASU JISSOCUTXOXJ (Received September 6th, 9.45 p.m.) LONDON, Sept«miwr 6. The Peking correspondent of "The Times'' says there is little hope of China's improvement, politically or financially; until & new leader walks in, establishes himself as a dictator, dissolves the preposterous remnant el Parliament and convenes another. It is generally believed that such a development is inevitable soon. At present the prospects of a Presidential election continue poor. The financial problem is insoluble. It is understood that the Government is rejecting the Powers* demands arising from the recent bandit outrages on tile ground that the reparation demanded is excessive and that foreign supervision of the Chines® police infringes China's sovereign rights. The Government's tene is due to tho belief that the Powers are disunited.
