1 HAS HELD MANY OFFICES ZJu Ping Chang Is a Chinese official of th highest rank, who, although baa only become or infamous, la th past six months in thla country. has kmc held a very prominent plac la Chinese jpoUtlca And. Governmental circles, says the New Tork Journal. He belongs to a distinguished family from Central China, and la a member of tb so-called Henna Literati. was horn ta the thirties, and la nearly sixty years of age.

He waa very, successful student, la his you to. passed all th official examinations with great success, and. It la hi genius for corruption even In those days by bribing tb examiners to glv htm a much higher rank than that to which be was entitled. He was and la a member of tb Han-Lin College, which Include all; th great scholar of the realm whor have prospered In politic or wealth, p- Lit Ping Chang has held any number Of great State positions, aad In every on has been distinguished by corrup tions, rapacity aad money-getting. Un til a abort time ago be was Viceroy of th Province of Sse-Cbuen.

This mag nificent district was almost unknown to Europeans twenty years ago. but la th last At years baa been coming into International prominence. It la situ ated la the west of China, under th so-called wall of Thibet, at the bead waters of th Hcanf-Ho. tb Tang-Ts Klang aad other rat rivers. It is extremely healthful, tertil.

rich in mines, minerals, forests and animal life. Th latest estimate of It population 1 000.000, making It almost aa poputou as th Bosnian empire. Th Rev- Will iam TJpcraXt, aa American missionary. belonging to tb Inland Mission, and who has passed many years in Chuen. abate that it contains at least five citlea with a population of 1.

000,000 and upward, and at least thirty cities of th second, and third class. It haa been singularly re from 'war and Insur rection for- at least lot years. Th province la protected from in vasion byt th Thibet mountains, the Pamirs on the west, by th Kuldja desert oa th north, and by the sparsely populated and mountainous district ox Tunnan oa the south. It I approached wtth difficulty from th east by two Important road, on starting at Ichang and on from and by th river in the navigable season. It ex port gold, silver, antimony.

Iron, steel, copper, tin. brass, bronse. porcelain. lacquers, lamber and timber of all sorts; a very fair grade of opium and aa Im mense amount of miscellaneous articles. This administration la on of tb richest plum in the Imperial pie.

The Viceroy alty of the two Quangs tnat is. Quang-Ttng and Quang-st waa formerly the moat important office, and waa said to be worth to the bappy Incumbent not leas than tS.000.00tt a year. In thoa days th Viceroyalty of 8xe-Cbuea was worth about $2,000,000. Can ton ha gone steadily downward, bow- ever, thanks to British Honc-Kon' and tne treaty porta, until the Vice royal Income la reported to be only one-half of what It formerly waa. Sse-Chuen has unproved with great rapidity, and Is now worth about (7.000.000 a year.

All th Chines mission have Buffer ed by th abominabl mlagovemment of Liu ring Chang, when he took charge of hla high office the missionaries wer prosperous, and their churches and schools wer well filled with seekers after truth and student ambitious to learn tha civilisation of th Western nations, He countenanced and approved thon- poaition which all mission are com pelled to i encounter, and made life so uncomfortable for the convert that hundred who bad begun to be Inter ested In Christianity were frightened away, Aa th pressure increased protest wer made by th missionaries to tha nearest consul of whom those of any high Jurisdiction ar aa far away as Hangaow; on tb xang-Tse, which la 70 miles, more than a two wteks Journey from! Chung-King and nearly 1.000 muea rroan some oc the missions that damaged by th 'riotoua mob. When th consuls protested Liu Ping Chang, with customary Chines duplic ity or aipumacy. tor tn two terms ar synonyms promised to make ameads. and. It I said, did enact a fare of Chopping off th head of two murderer, claiming that they wer an- u-vnristian rioters.

Things went from bad to worse, and culminated In the awful riot and massacre a Cheng-Tu aad neighboring polnta, Ii Claim fiav teen nied agalnat tb Chinee Government for over a million dollars. This sum represents th actual loss, and doe not Include on cent for punishment. Any person knowing th Esst realises tha ridiculous imoecil policy of such a proposition. Th damages claimed should have been at least on miiiina for tb actual injury and tea million dollars as punitive dtirani. Only In this way can these mandarins be made to realise that Europeans and Americana hav some right which they ar bound to respect.

The murderous crut'Hy of th Cbena Tu riots mad a profound Impression upon to foreign legation at Pekino. They made so flerc a complaint to tb Tsung-JA xamen tnat for wonaer. acted promptly. Even then their action was almost aa Insult to every Minister and Ambassador. They aanply promised to pay th dam age, to punish, the perpetrator of the outrage when discovered and remove Liu Ping Chang and twelve of hi lieu tenants and subordinates from office.

But they did not take away bis peacock learner, cis rea cutton or nis decora tion, which corresponds with th but- tou. Then, as If to emphasise the eon- tempt wrth "which they regard all for eign devils, they appoint him sole High Imperial Commissioner for Investigating tha riots and murders in Ku-Cheng. which are practically the outgrowth and result oc cnos vrnica caused him self. What should be don Is to trv tin Ping Chang by court martial, and find him guilty and bang him tn the publto square of the Hv of Foo-Chow. Hla death would count for but little, but th Ignominious execution of one of tb great lords of the realm would tiavs more profound effect upon the Chines uovernment than would aa army of nunarea wousana men.

The rank is indicated by th button worn on top of the hat, the deais-n ae square plate of gold em broidery upon the breast and back and by the rirdJe which they wear.
