China.—Despatches via Victoria, B. C., report that late news from China is to the effect that unless the revolution in Kansu, led by Tung Fu Hsiang is checked there will be a bigger revolt than two years ago. Missionaries are leaving the province; and they say that the government is behind the “rebels.” The rebellion in Kwangsi is more serious than even known. The rebels numbering 40,000, armed with modern rifles, have taken possession of many towns and districts.
