ORIENTAL CRISIS
WARLlkE MOVES BY JAPAN AND
RUSSIA.
All Russian officials in Far East
Attend Secret Conference at
Port Authoritative the Gar
Will Take Steps to Hold Man
Churia.

Kinchau, Opposite Newchwang),
Manchuria, July 9.-All the prominent
Russian officials in China. Manchuria
and Korea are attending the conference
at Port Arthur. Among them are the
minister of war, Kurapotkin, Admiral
Alexieff, the Russian ministers at Pc
king and Seoul, the political agents in
China and Korea, including Nj. Poko-
tiloff, recently Russian financial repre-
sentative at Peking, Gen. Desno, the
military agent in China, the civil and
military officials at Mukden, Hardin
and kirin, and the administrator of
Newchwang.
The proceedings of the conference are
enveloped in profound secrecy. 1t is
popularity supposed that the Russian
officials are considering war questions.
The foreign officers at Port Arthur
and. Newchwang believe that the posi-
Oility of war is increasing steadily. The
Russian policy is believed to be to hold
the Manchurian position and then take
no steps tn avert hostilities with Japan,
if it is assured that Japan will fight I'M
aided. The war feeling among the Jap
anese in China is intensified. The
Russian civil administrators with the
governor general of Newchwang have
commenced the erection of govern
ment building designed to hold all the
Russian offices, including the telegraph
and telephone departments, in the CEN
ter of the foreign settlement, partly on
land coded by the Chinese, according
to the Russian explanation, and partly
on the public square. about which the
foreign consulates are congregated.
The residents of other nationalities
are preparing to protest against this en-
croachment on the public square.
A Russian company has completed
the purchase of the river tug business
here. This is regarded as an important
step toward Russian control Of the har-
Dor. as the new company is apparently
acting in behalf of the Russian govern
ment, Russia having but small COM
mercial interests here.
The British company had four boats
and the Russians have imported two
more. All six vessels are armed and
commanded by Russian officers. The
crews are composed of soldiers.

Jones, of the Indian ofii3e, has formu-
lated an entirely new set of regulations
governing the Alienation and leasing
of Indian lands allotted to them by con-
gress. Acting Secretary Ryan said that
in his opinion the change in the regu-

preclude the possibility of fraud on a
large scale, although they might not
altogether protect the Indians from dis
posing of their lands for less than their
real value.
