to the assurance given February bv the
Russian Minister of Foreign Affairs Conn.
Lamsdorf. concerning the Manchurian affair =
appears that the Russian Minister consented on
February - to its publication as accurately,
representing Russia's attitude in the procasd
ings in Manchuria- Sir Charles Scott saws in
part:
Count Lamsdorf gave me the true version Of
what had taken place very readily He said ha
had read allegations in the press thar Russ5s
had concluded or was engaged in concIudinr
WITH CEln2 convention or permanent arrange
ment which would give Russia rights and a
virtual protectOrate over Southern Manchuria
This he declared to be quite untrue assertine.
that the only ground for the rumOr must havs
been the fact that the Russian military aUthori
ties who had been engaged in the Temporary
occupation and pacificaJion OF che province baa
been directed when reinstating the Chinese an
thorltleS 70 arrange with the local civil authori-
ties a rodus vivendi for the duration Of the
simultaneous presence Of Russians and Chinese
in Southern Manchuria, with the object of pre-
venting a recurrence Of disturbances in ths
vicinity of The Russian frontier. and Of protect
ing the railway from the Russian frontier 10
Port Arthur.
som. details Of the proposed modus vivsr5i
sent for consideration TO St Petersburr
but convention or arrangement with the can-
trail government of China or of a permanent
Manchuria. nor had the Emperor any intention
OF departing in any way from the assurances
he had publicly given that ManehUria would be
entirely restored its former condition in the
Chinese Empire soon as circumstances adj
mtted.
Russia was in the same position with regard
to liking the final date for evacuating Nanchuria
as the allies found themselves in with regard
to the evacuation of Pekiug. and the province
OF Pe-Chi-Li When il came 70 final and com
pIete evacuation of Manchuria Russia would
be obliged to obtain from the central govern
ment of China an effective guarantee against
the recurrence Of the recent attack upon her
frontier. and the destruction of her railway, hut
she had no intention of seeking this guarantees
in any acquisition of territory or actual or
virtual prOtectOrate OF Manchuria her object
teing simply TO guarantee the faithful observ-
ance in the future by China OF the terms OF ths
agreement which she had been unable % tuh
during the disturbances.
The dispatch concludes by repeating Coun.
I4amsdorf's assurance that there had been
alteration of the former International status
of Manchurfa which would be restored when
the temporary military measures had ceased.
and that everything az New-Chwang and else
where would he replaced in the former position.
