or later this note is sure to find pub
licity for it is necessary TO make up
the record of the case. but the time is
not now suspicious.
No doubt is entertained here that the
secret treaty is no longer to be feared,
and already attention is being directed
to the next step. The ministerial coun-
Gil at Pekin is believed to have temper
arily suspended meetings and the Man
churian problem is the sole object of
interest at present, SO far as China is
concerned. The suggestion has been
made that Russia having established
the correctness Of her intentions as to
Manchuria, the powers shall undertake
to assist her in securing the assent Of
China for the adoption OF such precau-
tionary measures as may be necessary
to safeguard what ere recognized as
purely Russian interests in that prov
ince. In that case, and such a SUCCESS
ton from the United States, there would
be nothing more required than q
straightforward and OPEN statement
by Russia of open condition sought to
be laid down, and with recognized
uprightness of purpose behind these,
the powers, it is believed, would surely
give their support.
