THE CHINESE LOAN AGAIN.
it Ii not al all suifMisuig that the
Chinese gorernmenl la now- Becking to
reopen negotiations with the six pow?
ci- fur n large loan, it would bare
been surprising If if bad uol done so,
or did Dot ?lo SO in the near future.
For two things are certain, one iv
thai China needs the n.?y. The other
?s thai thecomparatively -mail amount
which she uot through a private lu.in
was DOl only entirely inadequate to
her needs, but also gUrU her DO hope
of supplying ber oeeda In thai way.
The Peking government probably real
?/.??s thai the six power group is the
only source li'oln Which it has as?
surance of getting the Indispensable
funds, and therefore turns hack to It.
The uiie-t Interesting question bow i*
how th?; application will be re?-eive?l
by the powers which China only I lit
tie while ago openly flouted and defied,
The conduct of the Peking governmeni
'a^t summer aras not at all relished
by the Europ?en chancelleries. When
Mr. ?'lisp, of the London stock i-'.x
I change, organised ? syndicate to lend
' china 980,0X10,000, the I'.ritisli gOTSrn
I ment proteated that China ought not
thus t., borrow outside ol the six
power combination ?( least until she
had provided f"r the repayment ,if the
advances already made l?.v Hi?' latter.
ii also explained t<> Mr. Crisp tint n?
I matter Of principle It?and presuma?
bly the ?ithor powers would m-ver
support a loan which was concluded
without Sattafactory security and con?
trol of its expenditure. In the face Bf
tin- Mi <'iisp practically replied thai
he would <h> as he pleased, in defiance
of the powers, ami he presently an
Bjoajuced the offering of the loan. The
British governmeni then warned the
<'hi?ese gofsrumeui that if it acoeptod
Ihc loan "His MajcHty's government
"would be obliged to take tlie fasaSt
"serious view ?if guch proceedinga.''
Nevertheless, a pari of the loan prat
actually Coated and was accepted by
China
Now the Middle Republic apparently
reyents of ttj indiscretion and turns to
the six powers again. It is inconceiv?
able thai they should ?.'rant it any
easier terms than those of last spring
and summer. Indeed, it would not bfl
?tnnge if they should make it pay a
penalty by Insisting upon soapier se?
curity and wider control than they
wen- formerly willing to accept. There
is and should he no desire to be need?
lessly hard upon China. Hut neither
can America and her colleagues be ex?
pected to transact great fiscal opera?
tioiis |n an insecure or unbusinesslike!
way.
A CONTRAST.
As sections of Professor Moore's re
poil on the city school system find
their way into the newspapers people
begin to see. or think they see. why
President Mltchel and his committee
adopted the extraordinary unirse of
refusing to print it ami at the sane- j
time printing ami circulating an attack '
upon it. Mere failure to abide strictly
by instructions, which i* alleged as
Professor Moore's offence, would haul- i
ly appear a sufficient CUUSC for the
feeling exhibited by President Mltchel
and his associates Buch criticisms af?
ilie following by Professor Moore may ;
throw a good deal of lik.rht on the

This city should employ the sain? kind!

work, but neither of them has had the
support that must he theirs If tbey are to
