in the case of Germany at Kiao Chou.
Besides this, Russia demands the right
to construct railway under the same
conditions as the Transmanchurian
railway, from Petuna to Kwang Chung
Tsu, Mukden and Port Arthur. Five
days are given for reply and the agree
ment must be singed within month.
In the event of the n.compliance
Russia threatens to move her troops
into Manchuria. China will, perforce,
yield. BY this agreement Russia will
obtain the right to send soldiers into
Liao Tung, ostensibly for the protec-
ton Of the railway engineers.

GENERAL SiCKLES' OPINION.
Thinks Spain Has the Right to Demand
Lees Recall.


NEW YORK, March z. General Dan
lei E. Sickles, who was minister of the
United States to Spain from 1869 to
1874, during which period occurred the
strained relations between that country
and the United States over the Vir.
ginius affair, said that Spain's request
for the recall of Consul General Lee
was a serious move and likely to lead to
serious results.
General Sickles continued: at is
Spain's right to ask for General Lees
recall. Spain would be justified in de-
manding the recall of Consul General
Lee ON the ground that he is persona
non grata simply. President Mckinley
is at liberty to refuse to recall General
Lee and in that case Spain would be
perfectly justified in handing him his
passports on the single ground that he
is persona non grata."

No Reason for Change of Plans.


The suggestion of the Spanish gov.
ernment that relief supplies should not
be sent in war vessels did not come
through Minister Woodford, as the
Madrid dispatches state, but was pre-.
sented by Senior du Bose to the state
department last Friday. The re-
sponses in both cases went direct to
Minister Woodford. In the protest
against the Montgomery and Nash
vile, Judge Day conferred with Secre.
tary Long, who in turn called in Cap.
tain Crowninshield OF the bureau of
navigation. There appears to be no
reason why change should be made
liz the plan for sending these ships on
the relief mission and without attach.
ing grave significance to the request of
the Spanish government, the answer
was made that the plans for the trip
were completed and that the stay of the
ships would be brief and of the most
pacific character.
Lees sympathies With the Cubans.
For some time it was known thu,
General Lees presence in Hauana W
distasteful to the Spanish government,
but it was supposed this had blown
over and the demand for his recall
came somewhat in the nature of sur.
prise. The fact is also noted that Senior
Dupuy de LONE is due in Spain at this
time. His enforced retirement on a
demand by the United States is felt to
have awakened a counter sentiment at
Madrid which finds expression against
Consul General Lee. There is little
doubt also that such advice as Senior
Dupuy de LONE would give to the gov.
ernment or to the press in public in
Madrid would not be conducive toward
the retention of General Lee. There is
little doubt, however, that the main
cause of Spain's action is the SYM
pathy General Lee has shown for the
Cuban sufferers.
