(By Associated PrsSS.)
PEkIN, Feb. 1.-THE British, American
and japanese ministers here have reneWed
their opposition to the Manchurian ar
rangements between China and Russia
It is probable that this will result IN the
further postponement OF its consumma-
ton.
Ihe Powers are beginning to recognize
that China is making the best terms pos
sible for herself and incidentally for the
equal rights of the other nations IN
China, and are shifting their protests to
Russia az the responsible party. Paul
Lessar. the Russian minister here. Is en-
deavoring to maintain the fiction that
the Manchurian treaty and the Russo
Chinese bank agreement are not related
He had informed his colleagues that the
Russian Government has no official
knowledge of the Russo Chinese bank.
CARRY LITTLE WEIGHT.
Tn the light of the statements OF CHI
nese officials that Russia insists upon
the simultaneous signing of the Alancnu-
rian treaty and the bank agreement. the
representations of NJ. Lessar fall to carry
weight. The native newspapers are filled
with stories that Russia is trying to
gain her ends by offers of heavy br1bes.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press here has seen a draft of the agree
ment. This provides that China shall
build all railways and develop all mines
In Manchuria. II she IS unable to COM
bine tho capital she shall apply to the
bank IF the bank is unable or UNWILLING
to enter into arrangements China may
apply elsewhere for capital
The final clause stipulates that the
agreement shall in no wise impair the
existing rights of other nations. which
clause is palpaoIy nullitied by the pre-
cedn1 conditions.

wholly indorse this view.
