New York. April "a dispatch to the

Information that reached Paris from

proposed Manchurian treaty with
China. This step is attributed to the
personal insti- alton of Emperor Mich

determination to avoid at the present
juncture any conflict with japan
Coupled with this news comes the state
ment that Russia does not deem it eX-
pddient 70 withdraw any of her troops
now in Manchuria. and intends to mal1-
tain the status quo there vPul a Chi
nese government can be esta blished at
Pekin strong and ste bic enough to ln-
spire Russian confidence for the future.
This courteous and unexpected with

convention until now so aggressively
urged upon China. IS regarded as an
exceedingly clever move on the part of
Russia. because that treaty. which
could only be vFung from China by re-
newed drastic pressure. would, after
all, only secure an empty international
sanction of the position which Russia
already holds in Manchuria, and the
signing of the treaty might render war
with Japan inevitable
The conviction prevails in diplomatic
circles here that the International peace
negotiations with China will be greatly
facilitated by Russia's withdrawal of
