Peking, March 16.
Mr. Ku Ao, Chief of the Bureau for the Preparation of the inauguration of the Lifayuan or House of Legislature, denies that the monarphical restoration question will be discussed or reconsidered because the re-establishment. of monarchy under a constitutional Emperor is an accomplished fact which cannot {be reconsidered. intention of the i Lifayuan on May 1 is to allow the Chinese people to have a voice in the establishment of a constitutional monarchy in this country.
Mr. Ku adds that the members of the Lifsyuan will be elected by the people of the various Provinces, s0 that there is no truth in the statement that the members will be nominated by the Government authorities. Hence the coming inauguration of the Chinese Legisla-tore has nothing to do with any reconsideration of the monarchical Eh; question.
