WASHINGTON PLEASED.
Also Puzzled by Russia's Apparent Change
OF Front.

WASHINGTON. April 2s.-The State De-
Mr.. Mccormick. the American Ambassador
at st. Petersburg, to the effect that the
Russian Minister for Foreign Ahap has
assured him that the published reports
Of the proposed convention between Russia
and China relating to Manchuria are abso-
lutely incorrect. and that there Is no founda-
ton for the report that Russia demands
that China shall refuse the request Of other
Powers for treaty ports and oonsulates in
Manchuria
He has been assured that the Russian
Government has no intention to exclude
other countries from advantages now
enjoyed in Manchuria or to confer exclu-
sive privileges upon Russians; that the
United States may be assured that nothing
will be done to close doors now open and
that American commerce and American
capital are those which Russia most de-
sires to attract
It is understood also that similar assur.
anoes were received by the Secretary OF
State from the Russian Ambassador yes
terday afternoon.
With the receipt OF these Assurances the
crisis over the Manchurian incident may be
regarded as ended for the time being.
What may happen in October. when I he
treaty period expires within which the
Russians are pledged TO withdraw the last
of their troops from the Chinese province
with the exception Of a small army OF rail-
way guards. IL a matter for conjecture
But for the present Russia stands committed
not to seek advantages in Manchuria which
will exclude other nations from sharns
in the trade Of that country or give Russia
actual control OF Manchurian affairs.
No explanation II offered here OF the
radical difference between the Russian as
surances given above and the terms which
were proposed by that Government to China
