Danger of War.

Pekin, Notwithstanding to diplo-
mats here the greatest factor in the
Eastern situation is the increasing
danger of war between Russia and
Japan They believe it is becoming
plain that Russia is willing to fight
Japan if convinced that no other DOW
eT will assist her The Russians are
confident Of their ability to easily de-
feat Japan and are said to be anxious
20 settle definitely her position in
Eastern politics and end her ambi-
tions to oppose Russia's progress in
Manchuria. The belief is attributed to
the Japanese that the Russian policy
is to attempt to placate Great Bri-
tain and America and provoke Japan
into beginning hostilitie3. They re-
gard Russia's consent to opening
ports in Manchuria, the Cars prom
ised visit to England and the occupa-
ticn of the Corean border as parts of
that policy. Russia's activity on the
Yalu river Is more irritating to Japan
than the retention Of Manchuria and
all japanese in China speak Of war
as probability"
