Diplomatists In Washington express
the view that the Ango-Japanese alli-
ance has been entered into for the
purpose Of stopping the Russian adj

Russias aim is to make herself master

will permit, and that the supremacy IN
Manchuria and Corea Is but a step to-
ward this goal,
Russia Is IN Manchuria and It Is not
believed that she can be disodged from
that province, but the intention is to
prevent her from obtaining a similar
foothold IN the hermit Kingdom" or Il
further advances are made TO fight her.
