NOT CALCULATING BEST ON COAST
RUSSIA REMOVES MASK AND
SHOWS HAND.
churia Until China Grants De.
mands Which She Has Stated
Were "MereIy a Basis for Nego-
tiatiOns."

Yokohama, Oct. 9.-According to in
formation reaching here the Russian
minister at Picking, Nj. Lessar, has in
for ned the Chinese foreign office that
Russia Will never evacuate Manchuria
unless the latest demands are granted
China, it is added, has appealed TO the
japanese minister, Nj Uchida, for Jap
aDGse assistance.
Washington, Oct. 9.-The state de-
partment has not received direct confir-
nation of the Associated Press infor-
nation from Yokohama, but officials
here say they would not be surprised to
receive such confirmation at any time
from Minister Conger, They say they
are fully prepared to believe the news
that Russia has served notice on China
that she will not evacuate Manchuria
until her latest demands are granted.
Exactly what these demands are no Off
cial of the state department is prepared
to say, but the belief is strong that
they are practically the same as those
reported by the Associated Press from
Picking last spring and disavowed by
the Russian foreign office.
1t was said during the evening on the
highest authority that this government
had reason tito believe that Russia was
insisting on the very demands which
Count Lamsdorf assured Ambassador
Mccormick had never been presented
and which Count Cassini, the Russian
ambassador, told secretary Hay were
merely presented as basis of negotia-
tons. 1t was stated by the same au-
thority that this government will not
feel called upon to enter protest against
Russia's action SO long az our CONNER
cial treaty is observed and the two
ports in Manchuria promised by Russia
remain open to the world's commerce.

the Governor.

Denver, Colo, Oct. I'm connection
with rumors that scandal of wide
reaching character has developed in the
management of the Cripple Creek ca
paign of the Colorado national guard,
Governor James II. Peabody gave out
statement saying that serious charges
had been made and properly filed, and
that courtmartial investigation would
follow, which would 60 to the bottom
OF the matter.
Among the charges to be investigated
are said to be padded payrolls; the en-
ployment of superfluous generals and
colonies, who draw the salary of their
rank, but who perform servants du-
ties; genreal extravaganza in the pur-
chase of supplies for the commissary
department; thee charge that certain
officers have been securing rake-ott
from the contractors; the issuance by
wholesale of portation between
Cripple Creek and Denver to officers
and enlisted men, their families and
friends and charging the same to the
state; the charge that the keep
ing OF the camp is done in such 4 way
as to admit OF grating; the surrepti-
tious raising OF men with "pulp
from non-commissioned officers to cap
tains, majors and colonels; the oerc-
ton OF separate quarters for each colo
mel. this involving the state in a heavy
but practically needless expense; the
purchase OF spoiled beef for the enlist
ed men at sky-high prices; carelessness
and recklessnoss in the handling OF
finances that is said to be appalling.
The above charges are said to have
been filed by General Chase against
subordinate oclliera, while charges OF
exceeding his authority and disregard
ing the direct orders Of the commander
i'll chief, Governor Peabody. are said to
lie against the commanding general
himself.
