RUSSIA CONSENTS
TO JAPAN'S ACTION

London, July I, 9 40 a. m-The
Russian government announces that
it will give Japan free hand to ap
ply military force in China. The
terms of this are summarized into the
subjoined dispatch from st Peters
burg, under date of July s.
In reply to an inquiry from the
Japanese cabinet regarding the dis
patch of Japanese troops to Cbina to
render aid to the foreigners in Pekln,
the Russian government declared on
May 9th that it left the Japanese
government full liberty of action in
this connection, 60 the Toxic cabinet
expressed its readiness to act in full
agreement with tne other powers.
It is in consequence of this, no doubt.
that Japan is preparing to embark
20, 900 more troops. Political con-
eideratiops that were thought to have
been hlnderiDg the action OF the
powers are thus laid aside for q
moment at least by the government
supposed to have the clearest pur-
poses respecting China's future.
