The latest OF a series Of a dozen de-
sDatches announcing conflicts between
Russian and Chinese troops in Manchuria
was received at the State Department to-
day from Cologne The cablegram states
that a battle was fought at Mukden, the
Chinese being the aggTessors. and that
the Russians lost sixty killed and wound
ed, including four officers.
So many Of these dispatches have come
TO hand, and so many Of them have been
proved to be without foundation, that
there is a disposition at the State Depart
ment to regard them as manufactured for
a purpose.
According to prominent official of the
State Department, who discussed the re-
ports today, he has reliable information
to the effect that the stories Of strife
between Chinese and Russians are being
invented by a Russia press agent and
scattered broadcast so as to furnish an
excuse for the retention of Russian troops
IN Banchuria-
In the view OF the other Powers. Rus
sia has a right TO maintain troops in Man
churia as long as the Chinese persist in
waging war in that territory and the des-
patches coming from Manchuria every
few days by way Of London. Vienna. St
Petersburg. and Paris. all contain stories
Of savage encounters in which the Chi
nese are IKE agsressors and the Russians
lose heavily.
This State Department official claims to
have good authority for the statement
that these battles have all been fought on
paper It is held that from reliable in
formation received lately the Russians
have everything well in hand and that the
Chinese are under control

THE CHINESE INDEMNITY.
Reports From Paris Concerning the
Amount Fixed Credited Herc.

While without any official confirmation
from Mr.. RockhiI- the Special American
Commissioner in China, the State Depart
ment places the fullest confidence in the
report from Paris that the foreign nego-
tiators at Pekin nave agreed that the Ce-
lestiaI Government shall pay an indemni-
ty Of $275, ,o03034. This is S73. coo 600 more
than this Government believes China is
able TO pay, and it is assumed that Mr..
Rockhiu voted against fixing that high
figure.
The Paris report that the United States
ana British representatives declined TO
agree to an increase in the Chinese Gus
toms duties TO provide means for paying
the indemnity, may be true, although it
was said here today in official circles that
this Government might agree to an in
crease in duties If the Ukin or provincial
and municipal taxes on imports were
