The following telegram has been lation from the "Shun Pao'
"Looking westward towards our mother country we see with deep sorrow that matters there are getting worse and that the present situation is much more dangerous than ever before. Yet in spite of this we also see that many statements about us are circulated which are quite untrue, Some of you state that we are going to start a fresh movement (against the G ernment) while others state that we are all going to ask for pardon. Both statements are false and surprise us considerably. It is correct that we see that the present Government is bad and of this we are exceedingly sorry. But who there that could fight his own cou try by means of another country's strength, or who will invite one wolf to drive away another one? Those who are wise will not do +his.
Even bad.men would not do this.
