ISSUES IN CHINA
RESISTANCE TO JAPANESE DEMANDS
BULLION AND CURRENCY
ATTITUDE OF THE BRITISH AMBASSADOR.
By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. , LONDON. July 29. Tokio reports that a sub-committee of two British delegates and two Japanese has been formed to consider the currency and silver question in the Tientsin dispute in order to facilitate the general negotiations. Japan is demanding the forfeiture of Chinese silver bullion valued at over £1,000,000 held by Tientsin banks, and also the exclusion of Chinese currency.
The British Ambassador. Sir Robert Uraigie, is reported to be firm in his attitude to both demands, which is a first indication of British stiffening.
