CHINESE AGITATORS
OUTSIDE ENCOURAGEMENT
DANGER TO FOREIGNERS,
(By Electric. Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received July 15, 11.5 a.m. LONDON, July 16.
The French Ambassador, M. I’. Leaureau, at a reception to the French Colony on the occasion of the national fete commemorating the storming of the Bastille, in referring to the position in China, said that the existing system of treaties would not be touched without exposing foreigners in China to the greatest danger*!. The agitators who excited the good Chinese against foreigners would not engage in the deadly work unless encouraged from outside. He hoped that all the Governments concerned would unite to defend their nationals, not merely now by concerted measures for immediate protection, but in the future by retaining a guarantee of the old treaties until China was able herself completely to assure the safety of the lives and property of all residents of China. He concluded with a statement that world peace depended on the AngloFrench Entente.—Reuter.
