Russia Objects to Chinese Troops.
tPARIS. March 10.~lr is officially
confirmed that the Russian minister at
Pckin basmade tirm representations‘
to the Chinese government conceming
_ the. activity of Chinese troops. along
~ the. Manchurian frontier, with a point-
ed intimation of the defensive meas-
‘ -ures Russia may be compelled to adopt.
The substance of the representations
, follows:
'Russia has taken cognizance of the
, presence of considerable forces of Chl-
nese troops along the frontier. For
, the present it is recognized that these
' forces a e independent of .the direct
authorit and control of the imperial
, government, which therefore Is not res
‘pohaible for their presence. But the
fact of their presence is called to the
attention of the imperial government
and, should their continrrance on the
. _ frontier lead to depredations and acts
of lawlessness Russia will take the
measures necessary to safeguard her
interests.
The foregoing is not the literal text.
but is the purport of the terms of the
representations.
.The Chinese troops referred to are
those of General Ma and General Yuan-
; Shi-Kai, the commander-inchief. The
latter is the viceroy of Chi-Li province.
and his troops originally were organis-
ed by the late Li Hung Chang. There
fore they are subject to provincial in-
stead of imperial control.
.lt is it derstood here that Viceroy
ruiexiefl w 11 be entrusted with formu-
_ lilting repressive measures it‘ the “den

dangering Russian interests. ‘
