NO AGREEMENT WITH BRITAIN.
Question of fIntervcntion should Japan
 bosCrushed.

Washington. Feb. S.-State depart- ment officials deny that any agreement has been made to the effect that the United States and Great Britain would intervene after Russia has crushed Japan. and insist that Manchuria re- main part Of China. Ever since the Turko- Russia war 1t has been custom ary for the great neutral powers to hold some sort Of conference at the conclusion of the war to assure the vanquished nation against undue exac- tions and punishments. This was not ably the case in the TuriSo- Russian war and attention is called to the fact that although Japan was the victor in her last war with China, the neutral powers, especially Russia and Germany, brought pressure to bear upon Japan to prevent her from pursuing her advant- age beyond reasonable limits. Incident- ally 1t also was pointed out that the two nations named profited themselves by the acquisition of most important |strategical points, which had been the object of Japan's operations.
