 DACCER'S POINT Clash Over Piece of Land
 Near Tien Tsin BOTH CLAIM POSSESSION Russian Authorities Attempt to
 Stop Railway Force ENGLISH GUARDS PROTECT THEM Gen. Wagasoek Protested, But Gen. Barrow, British Chief, Orders the Work To Proceed With Armed

Russian Authorities Attempt to
 Stop Railway Force
ENGLISH GUARDS PROTECT THEM

London, March 13.-Friction has arisen at Tien Tsin between the British and Russians over a piece of land alleged to belong to the railway company and to have been in possession of the company for some years.
 According to dispatches from Tien Tsin. the Russians assert that this land is part of their new concession, and therefore Russian property. MT. Kinder. manager of the railway, had begun to make a siding, but was stopped by the Russian authorities. He appealed to Colonel Mo- Donald. who referred the matter to Gen eral Barrow. British chief of staff in Pe- kin, who replied:
 Garry on the siding with armed force if necessary"
 Guards were put on the line by the British and the work continued,
 General Wagasak, the Russian com mander, protested, and said the thing would not have been done If the Rus sians had had as many troops as the Brit ish, adding that such matters should be left to diplomacy
 Colonel Mcdonald again communicated with General Barrow, who telegraphed: Continuing the siding" General Wagasak very indignantly ap- | .pealed to the Russian minister at Pekin | M. DeGiers.
 Count von Waldersee has Informed | General Chaffee that the troops under his
 command will be disposed of as .failesSl | during the summer months. England will have 1,000 men at the sum | mer palace, small detachment in hunt
 ing park and 2,eOo men in other places. Germany will send the troops now 1T | Pekin to a village northwest of the sum mer palace in the mountains, while ths German troops at Pao Ting Flu will bs located in the mountains west of the city
 Italy will withdraw her troops from that part of the summer palace which some of her forces now occupy.
 Japan and Austria will leave their troops in Pekin.
 Count Won Waldersee says that by such locations of troops any and all trouble can be avoided, and he sees no cause for interference.
