RUSSIAN MINISTER OBJECTED TO
REVEALING TEXT OF THE
TREATY.

Pekin, Nov. TO- A violent dispute
with NJ. Paul Lessar, Russian minister
to China, over the Manchurian treaty,
appears to have been the immediate
cause of the death of Ii Hung Chang.
The diplomatic events preceding this
tragic climax have enabled Japan for
me ment to Illustrate the designs OF
Russia. A fortnight ago the japanese
legation secured a reliable outline of
the terms of the treaty and thereupon
demanded that the Chinese plenipo-
tentiaries officially lay before them the
text, basing this demand upon the al
legation that Japanese interests were
involved in any change of the status of
Manchuria.
The Chinese plenipotentiaries refused
to comply with the demand. There
uron the Japanese government from
Toxic communicated with the Southern
viceroys and induced them to use their
influence with the empress dowager
the empress dowager
Instructed Ii Hung Chang
to communicate the treaty after GER
tain notifications to the ministers OF
the powers, and, IL they did not object,
to summon the same.
Ii Hung Chang visited M. Lessar and
explained TO him the instructions. The
Russian minister strongly objected TO
revealing the text of the treaty TO the
ministers of the other powers and an
other stormy interview ensued. Ii
Hung Chang went home in a violent
passion and had a hemorrhage, which
the doctors attribute to the over exer-
ton of a weakened system.
While these things were happening
in Pekin the Southern viceroys sent TO
the empress dowager. a memorial
against the treaty. On receiving it she
telegraphed to Ii Hung Chang coun-
demanding the order to sign. When
NJ. Lessar endeavored to have Ii
Hung Changes seal affixed TO the treaty

rived from Pao Ting Flu, had taken
charge of the seals as the temporary
