which restricted the zone of fighting
to' Cores, Mancllurla. Japan and Rus-
sis. The report is based on the fact
1 t Japanese spies have been found
'slong the road from Kinchau Inland.
While this would be a violation of
the Hay note, would not Japan be justl-
Ilegdn disregarding the note? The
nearness of Chinese territory to Port

A high Russian official is said to
have remarked in connection with the
proposed landing of Japanese troops
on Chinese territory: »
“it would .have Wt‘Se consequences
for other powers titan Russia if Japan
should enter neutral teritory, for such
a step would obviously be for the pun
pose of invelging China into the fight.
It Japan should be successful in this
there would be an uprising agaJnst
foreigners which would be ten fold
greater than the Boxer affair. The
mere possibility is pregnant with all
sorts of dangers, but we can hardly
believe that Japan will venture to vio-
