This article discusses relations between Great Britain and France, as well as the deployment of troops. Because of reports that the French Government has received concerning the Chinese territory along the Tonquin boarder, the number of European troops in Indo-China will be raised to 30,000. The article also notes that there are “vague reports that negotiations are in progress between Great Britain and other European Powers touching the future status of the valley of the Yangtse-kiang, looking to British predominance in the provinces boarding that stream.”
