Britain Rejects Special Rights in China Policy
The Manchester Guardian reports Britain will not recognize special rights for any power in Chinese ports. If Russia winter ships at Port Arthur, Britain will do so too. if Germany gains a naval station at Kino Chow, Britain will deny ground leases and back other powers. The issue centers on most favored nation clauses and equal access across railways and mines, with potential future compensations and safeguards. Japan reportedly echoes this stance.
