LONDON. Sept. 7.-The text OF Russia's in
suuctions regarding her policy in China. which
have been sent to the Russian represen tatives
abroad for communication to the various
governments, Is criticised by the London news
papers In the most hostile manner. II Ia held
that Russia's decision to act Independently
Is calculated TO strengthen among the Chinese
the belief that the Powers cannot act in har-
mony and to encourage among the peoples OF
Europe and America the idea that she Is anxious
10 pose as the special friend OF China. 1t is
foreseen, moreover that even II Russia wished
10 leave Manchuria after lasting order Is
established" this would probably mean that
she would remain there indefinitely. like Eng
land In Egypt.
While the press IL unanimous against the
spirit Of Russia's policy. there is no strong
objection 10 the withdrawal OF the allied forces
To a place more accessible in the winter than
Pekin. but 1t is thought that this matter had

suspicion that she was the instgator
OF and the accompNce in murder and destruc-
ton. Such Wow will not be taken by England
alone. 1t Is from Pekin and PekIn only that TN
abiding pence can be dictated"
The Times counts on Germany also 10 oppose
the withdrawal Of the troops. and expresses the
hope that the attitude OF the United States. as
set forth In the dispatches of THF SrN, Is true.
The Ttmss's St. Petersburg corresr ondent
saws that the whole Russian press is greatly snt-
isned with the Governments declaration Of
its policy. which fully accords with Rus
sias traditional course in the Far Fast
Moreover. it Is held that the return Of the inter-
