RUSSIA MOTTO CLOSEDOOR
Denies Having Made the Objectionable
Demands.
CHINA REJECTS THE PROPOSALS.
Referring to the Eight Demands Reported to
Have Been Made by Russia, the Latter Says
the First, Providing That No More Manchu'
riau Ports or Towns be Opened, is False
Nothing Directed Against Commerce.

St. Petersburg (By Cablc).-The Rus
sian Foreign Office, when shown the
Pcking dispatch of April 20 setting forth
the eight demands made by Russia on

denial of a number of the points and
mnimized the Importance of others.

the Foreign Office says:
"First-AbsoluteIy false. Not our at
fair.
"Sccond--Depends upon China. Not
mentioned in our pourpar!crs.
"Third-False.
"Fourth-Unmportant.
''Fifth-Such is the present arrange
ment.
"Sixtl-Extremely important since an
English vessels in 1902 introduced the
plague.
"Seventh-Falsc.
"Eighth-Thc integrity of China is al
ready adopted into the Russian program"
No need to discuss that now
Regarding the whole negotiations,
which have been dragging on since Janr-
ary, the Foreign Office says:
"There is nothing directed III any
manner against the interests of the other
powers or their commerce; others enjoy
the same rights of commerce IN the IN,
terror as we. OF the towns not opened
to trade the railway will carry Russian
and foreign goods alike through the
country, but we or they cannot sell ti1en'
in the unopened towns. If the towns are
opened all will benefit alike. 1t is in the
railways interests to demand the wIdcSl
possible developments OF trade. he
Dourparlcrs concern multitudlnous de
tailed questions which were not iorcSeenn
when tie evacuation was decided upon.
As cabled from Peking April % the
Russian demands were as follows:
I. No more Manchurian ports or
towns are to be opened.
2. No more foreign consuIS arc 10 be
admitted into Manchuria.
2. No foreigners except Russians are
to be employed in the public service OF
