Demands but This is Said to Please Russia More Than an Acceptance Three Japanese warships Ordered to New chwang-The Japanese Greatly Excited. ',
 Pekin. April 23.-Russia has demand ed that China sign an agreement prac- tically ceding to her the sovereignty of Manchuria and excluding other nations from that country. The Russian charge d'affaires, M. Planco, has informed Prince Ching, president of the foreign office, that no further steps in the evac- uation of Manchuria will be taken until this agreement is signed.
 Prince Ching refused the Russian terms, but his refusal probably pleases Russia as. we'll as his acceptance would have done, because either alternative means the relinquishment of Chinese sovereignty in Manchuria. The Rus sian demands are as follows:
 : First, no more Manchurian ports or towns are to be opened; second, no more foreign consuls are to be admit ted into Manchuria; third, no foreign CTS, except Russians, are to be employ ed in the public service of Manchuria; fourth, the present status of the ad- ministration of Manchuria is to remain unchanged; fifth, tine customs receipts at the port of New Chwang are to be given to the Russo-C Chinese bank; sixth, sanitary commission is to be organ azed under Russian control; seventh, Russia is entitled to attach the tele- graph wires and poles of all Chinese lines in Manchuria, and, eighth, no ter ritory in Manchuria is to be alienated fo any other power
 No explanation has been given to the Chinese of the Russian interpretation of the fourth demand.
 Chinese officials are greatly disturb ed, but they are powerless.
 While the foregoing demands were before the Chinese for consideration M. Plancon assured his colleagues explic- itly that the only reason for the delay in restoring the government of New Chwang to the Chinese was the organ ization of the sanitary commission.
 There has been considerable feeling in British circles over the appointment of a Russian commissioner in New fChwang, but this revelation of Russias determination to maintain control of Manchuria and close the open door there robs the appointment of it's im- portanee. .-Is.

Anna Held has been SO widely known
and discussed as a. stage beauty that
any aspirations upon her part for more
legitimate fame have never been taken
seriously. For the past two seasons,
however, she has commanded recognition
as a cornedienne in tho leading role of
musical comedy, "The Little Duchess"
The book and lyrics were written by
Harry B. Smith, and the music is the
work of Reginald De Koven, composer Of
''Robin Hood" and other well known
operas. Miss Held Is said to be very
happily cast, her part being more pre-
tentious than any role she has assumed
heretofore. Manager Ziegfeld has sur
rounded Miss Held with company of
leading dramatic and musical artists
Joseph w. Herbert a great favorite here,
heads the supporting cast in the greatest
comedy part Of his career. Others are
George Marion, the we'll known comedian
and character actor; Frank Rushworth,

to be not only the prettiest girls ever en-
gagged for a musical comedy, but the
handsOmest and most expensively
gowned. Theodore Bendix, the musical
director, has charge. Of the orchestra,

her versatility.

Judging from her photographs in boys

carnival Of wit, music and jollity, while
the spectacular features incorporate a
wealth Of brilliant scenery and kaleido-
scopic movement of beautiful and gilt
