which reaches southward from Men-
cburie between the Yellow Sea and
the Japan See. China and Japan both
claimed to he suzeratns over this weak
people.
in order to assert her'position Ja-
pan provoked a war with China in
1894 and drove the Chinese army out
of Cores. She also landed an army
corps in Manchuris and conquered the
province of Liaotong. which contains
Port Arthur, Talieuwan—both mili-
tary strongholds on the Yellow See--
and the rich and ancient Tartar capi-
tal, Mukden.
China sued for peace. in the nego-
tlntlons which followed she ceded to
Japan not only the island of Formosa.

it exactly suited the swiftly expend-
ing ambitions of Japan. it placed
Cort-a helplessly between her territo
rial frontiers. gave her the greatest
military and naval stronghold in Asia
-Port Arthur—and brought her willi-
in striking distance of the capital of
China. The Japanese were delirious
with pride.
At this point Russia. supported bi'
France and Germany. refused to allow
Japan to take the province which she
had conquered and which had been ced-
ed to her. Japan roared with engcr.
but submitted.
Later on Russia built a branch 0:
her Trans-Siberian railway to Port Ar-
thur. which she leased from China.
(lraduaily Russian troops were moved
into Manchuria. Russian officials real.
ly administered the government of the
country. although China was nominal-
ly sovereign.
Today Russia occupies and has viiL
tually annexed the province out of
which she ousted Japan only eight
years ago. She has a viceroy Admiral
Alcxlt‘fl. at Port Arthur.
This situatiou has aroused Japan to
a high pitch of fury. She wants re
range and vindication. She cannot
bear the eight of the Russian flag fly
ing over territory once her by the
right of conquest.
Besides this. Russia has steadily en-
croached on Japan's influence in Co
res and has shown a disposition to so-
cure territory and seaports from that
nation. The Russians have thus far
battled the plans of Japan In Cores,
which. it is assumed. aim at ultimate
annexation. in other words. Russia
has forced Japan to cmilinc herself to
her islands.
The occupation and virtual annexa-
ognlscd as a violation of pledges giv-
en by the Russian government. She
was salted by the United States to
withdrew her army from Manchurla
and promised to‘ do it on a certain
day. Japan. too. insisted upon the
evacuation. On the day named Russia
failed to withdraw, and to show her
attitude her viceroy on the same day
paraded a great army at l’ort Arthur
with bennen, music and every symbol
of rejoicing.
Japan seeks to force Russia to re-
tire from Nancharls and to recognise
Cores as a Japanese ‘iaphere of influ-
ence." The negotiations have gone on
for a long time it has been buried
thIte some compromise would be
reached.
To strengthen her position Japan
made I treaty of alliance with Great
BritIin in'll'cbruery, 1902. in which the
two countries agreed to do everythlal
necessary to maintain the Independ-
ence and territorial integrity of China
and Cores, and also agreed. in case
war should ensue, that if other powers
should Join the aggressor in hostilities
against one of the contracting parties.
the. other should go to its assistance.
