China the granting of which would
mean the virtual cesslon of Manchu-

that she Is I'm n position to enforce
them against the opposition of the rest
of the world. Whether Newchwang
has been "reoccupied' or "re-evacuat-

forcibly to the fact that Russia has

borhood and controlling the whole
Liaotung peninsula and is In practical
control of the situation.
The interests of the United States
in Manchuria are purely commercial
and yet political. The volume of for
