RussO.Chinese Entanglements.

RUSSIA PLAYING THE SAME GAME WITH
CHINA THAT SHE HAS PLAYED WITH ENG
LAND.
LONDON, May 4.-Dispatches from Tientsin
state that the dispute between China and Rus
STA regarding the frontier of Manchooria has
become acute, owing to the non-arrival OF the
Russian members OF the delimittIion commits
sion and the constant postponcment OF the
date OF their arrival at the place of meeting TO
settle the boundary. The Chinese commits
siOners have been ready for the past several
months TO begin the work Of deimitation. and
the failure of the Russian commissioners 10
meet them has caused the Chinese government
TO fear that the same course pursued by Rus
sia respecting the Afghan frontier will be fol-
lowed in this case. Now that the difficulty
with France in relation to Tonquin has been
settled, China has become more courageous
and has demanded that Russia fulfil her part
of the agreement which led 10 the appointment
of the commission. 1t is said that China has
also intimated that She is quite prepared TO en-
force her claim in regard 10 the frontier of Man
chooria. The Chinese allow that the Russians
have been constantly yencroaching upon Chinese
territory ever since the Ignatief agreement OF
1860.
