ARE ON THE verge Of WAR
JAPAN AND RUSSIA ARE MAKING
PREPARATIONS. &.
Fears are Expressed That Russia Has
Gone Too Far for a Peaceful Settle
ment-Has Assumed a Defiant Atti-
tude-London Worried-Crisis Soon
to Come in Japan.

London, Dec. 22.-Reuter's Tele-
gram company has learned that much
anxiety is felt regarding the posi-
BILE outcome of the situation in the far
east. Fears are expressed that Rus.
STA may have overstepped the bounds
which would make p~eaceable negotia-
lions with Japan possible.
Apart from the delicate state of the
negotiations between the two nations.
Reuters say it is also known that
Russia is assuming a more defiant at
titude and the outlook may be regard
ed as more gloomy than it hitherto has
been, although it can not be said that
the our of diplomacy have been
completely exhausted.
The statement concludes by SAYING
that there is as yet no actual news of
fresh developments n that no ulti-
matum a been sent by Japan to Rus
STA.
Pekin Feels the Crisis.
Pekin, Dec. zz.-While no news has
been received at the Japanese lega-
ton tina. Japan has sent an ultimatum
to Russia. it is recognized at the lega-
ton tha- a grave crisis is approaching.
Major General Yamani, the Japanese
military attache, and the Japanese col
onel who has been i~nstructing General
Yuan Shat Kais troops, have both
started for Japan.
The native press recently reiterated
a circumstantial story to the effect
that in the event of Manchuria being
retained by Russia it was the inten-
ton of Great Britain to establish a
protectorate over the Yangtse valley
as compensation and to appoint a vice
roy therein, SO that her prestige in
the far east would be equal to Russia's.
Some native papers give Wal Wal HUI
of the Chinese foreign board as author
ity for the story. The fiction is largely
credited and gravely discussed and is
creating hostility against Great Brit
air. 1t is suspected hat the story has
been fostered by unfrlendly agencies
appointed for the purpose and the Brit
ish legation is Investigating it's origin.
