Of the relative fighting strength Of the

Eight years ago Japan, as the prize
of her victory over China, demanded
and obtained by treaty the control OF
Manchurla, which Russia subsequently,
took from her aud holds at the present
time. Russia also prevented Japan
from taking possession of Korea, and

Yokohama, Oct. 2o.-The negotiations
between Russia and Japan have come
to another standstill. 1t is thought
doubtful that the Marquis Ito's view OF
the military occupation Of Manchuria
Is Endorsed by the whole country, but
Il is believed that Ito is strong enough
to carry his point, owing to the para
mount stand taken for the integrity OF
Korea and the open door in Manchurla
for all nations.
As announced in a dispatch from 70

with the Marquis Ito, while stipulatipg
the integrity Of Korean and Chinese
sovereignty, makes no point of the
