AFFAIRS IN CHINA.
THE KWANGSI REBELLION. THE KINDER’S SIDING AWARD. United Prass Association —By Eleotrio Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, April 27. The Cantonese residents at Shanghai have protested to the Governor against General Wang’s intention, to accept French assistance in suppressing the Kwangsi rebellion, contending that such assistance will tend to partition China. The arbitrators’ award in the Tientsin siding dispute, which arose in 1900, through the Russians seizing the Kinder’s railway siding, upholds the British claims, but admits that the Russian contentions in favour'of the seizure were well founded. RUSSIA’S DEMANDS. A FORMAL REFUSAL. LONDON, April 2V. China has sent her formal refusal of Russia’s Manchurian demands. RUSSIA’S BREACH OF FAITH. INDIGNATION IN AMERICA. LONDON, April 28. The New York correspondent of the “ Times ” says that public indignation against Russia’s proceedings in Manchuria is hourly rising. The newspapers are mostly condemnatory of Russia’s action.
