convention becoming known, the Japan.
csc government regarded the act of Rus
STA with suspicion and orders were given
for the japanese navy to hasten east
ward. Still this government felt that it
was powerless beyond making an emphat-
ic protest against the secret agreement.
Then as the different powers realized
that China and Russia were acting to-
gether vigorous protests were made
against the accession Of the Manchurian
province without consultation of all the
powers. To this Russia made answer
that it claimed the right to negotiate
with any other power it chose without
consultation or notification to any other
government. This reply was supposed to
have been directed against England IN
particular, as that country claimed to
have possessions along the line of the
railway.
The terms Of the proposed Russian
Chinese convention still remain secret,
though it is known that number of
notifications have been made to the orig
inal treaty. The first Of these declares
that Kinchow and Port Arthur shall not
be annexed, but, as at present, leased
from the Chinese government The sec
ond modification is that Russia will not
insist upon a Russian resident at Houk-
den. In the third clause it is stated that
the Chinese army will be permitted to
maintain order in Manchuria prior to the
completion of the railway, which it is de-
clared will not require Russian protec-
ton during construction. The final mod
ification declares that Russia will forego
her demand that mining and railway con
cessions in Mongolia, Turkestan and
Kashgaria shall be granted to none but
Russian subjects.

belonged to Gideon Mercer, who rented 1t
Oh n 99-year lease in IT'S. Attention was

sell some of the property, to which he
claimed to have Il clear title. The title
was looked up by the prospective pur-

affairs. Vanderbilt tried to prove his
claim to it, and it was finally brought
before the Supreme Court, which render

Mercer heirs were the rightful owners.
