that Manchuria and not Tien Tsin, Is
the danger point 10 the Chinese situa.
ton. These gentlemen assert that
Great Britain, Japan and Germany
have given Russia TO understand that
they win regard with disfayor The
signing Of the Manchurian convention.
Ii is further stated that II the oonytn.
tion is signed a vigorous protest will
be made by these powers, and should
this be not effectual more aggressive
measures will be taken. War talk Is
deplored in American official circles,
where 1t is well understood that COZ.

faith. and that government, Il Is be-
lieved, will abandon the convention
with China rather than engage in war,
1t is stated that the only danger In
the situation at Tien Tsin lies in the
