bassador, who Is now at Washington, obtained a series of valuable conces-; sions two years ago. Among these were the rights to build and to control rail- ways running through Manchuria and parts of Mongolia so as to connect the Transsiberian railway with Peking, with Kirin Moukden and Port Arthur, and from Tsi Tsi liar to Kirin and Vladi- vostok As the Siberian road is now advanced beyond Lake Baikaland and is constructed northward from Vladi- vostok to the head of steamboat navi- gation on the Ossuri river, the value of the grants and the ease with which Russia will be able to control the des- tinies of Manchuria and northern Chi na proper may be easily estimated. No matter what attitude China may take at the instigation of Great Britain, it cannot undo much of what has been done.
 If, at the furthest, it gives Great Britain all the railroad concessions south of Picking or even south of the great wall and the great palisade, it has tied Manchuria and eastern Mongolia up forever They are almost as much Russian provinces today as is the Cfimea or Circassia. There is already a rail way running from Tien-tsin north eastward into Liao-Tong which last No vember was PA miles long and is now

Under the Chinese system it is impossi- ble to exploit their resources, so that they are no further advanced today than they were in the time of Marco Polo, if as much, but 1t is known that they possess vast deposits of coal. tin. silver. gold. iron. copper, rubies and jade. Many of the tribes of Yunnan ap- pear to be the remnants of races which were conquered by the Hindoos to the west and by the Chinese to the north and east and driven as a last resort into these inaccessible mountain dis tricts. They are strong. vigorous and industrious men and under proper ad- ministrators are efficient workmen.
 It is onlya short time ago that the Ger. mans seized Kiao-Chou, on the eastern coast of Shangtung. They have utilized every hour to inoroaoc tne Importance Of their new possession. While their diplomats have secured a railway con- cession from their port to Chinan-foo, the capital of the province, and also to lchang, their engineers have determined and surveyed satisfactory routes for both lines. The western road runs to Kao-mi. thence to Wei-hsien and thence

 post of Kiong- Choo, at the very head Of the gulf of Liao-Tong. which is con- nected by fair road with Moukden, the ancient Nanchurian capital. This

to Chinan-foo, or Tsinan-foo, about 200 miles in total length. The southwestern line runs to Kuchan and Ichao and thence, it is said, to Chin-kiang.
 Both of these roads have strategic value. The western line would control the province of Shangtung and reduce the value of the British stronghold of Wei-Hai-Wei. Its terminus, Tsinan, is a fine city of nearly 180.000 inhabitants on the eastern bank of the Hoang- Ho.
