Toxic, Dec. Pat is asserted in Of

ply to Russia rejects the fundamental
points at issue, which are understood
to include mutual guarantees for the
preservation of Chinese and Korean
sovereignty, while securing their indi-

still is susceptible to a pao:ac solution
if Russia quickly reconsiders her re-

Komura yesterday called on Baron de
Rosen, the Russian minister, instead
of Baron Rosen calling on 1.somura, is
explained by the fact that the baron
is suffering from an a affection. But
the explanation has obvious diplo-

that Japan is determined not to afford
Russia possible ground for claiming
