Peiping, Jan. 7.
The local press reports that the Anti-British Committee, "in view of the large amount of British goods appearing on the market" has decided to clear Peiping of British goods.
A thorough search for British goods, it is stated, will be inaugurated within a few days, after which a definite period will be fixed during which those must be disposed of.
After the expiration of this period, the report adds, those found selling British goods will be adequately punished.—Reuter.
