LONDON, Jan. 81. - Lord Lans-
downe's reception at the foreign Office
was attended by almost all the ambas-
sadors and ministers in London, inelud-
Ing the American, Russian, Japanese,
German and French representatives.
At the end of the reception it was obi
cially stated that the situation looked
perhaps slightly more hopeful, but as
the Russian reply apparently is not yet
drafted no definite statement could
safely be made.
The foreign office has reason 10 be-
lieve, however, that Russia is willing
to concede practically all of Japans de-
mands, but she cannot see her way TO
make treaty with Japan recognizing
in black and white China's sovereign
ty over Manchuria. Russia has APP
preached Great Britain to urge Japan
TO forego this stipulation and to accept
in lieu thereof the assurances to the
same end already given to the other
powers. 1t is pointed out at the for
eign office that Great Britain, being
such an interested party, is in a diff
cult position and can scarcely recon-
mend such a course 90 her ally. For
the moment the situation rests theER
Whether or not Japan win insist to II
bitter end on a treaty recognizing Chr
nese sovereignty over Manchuria the
foreign office does not yet know. 1t
thinks the japanese themselves will
not decide until after the delivery OF
the Russian reply.
japanese newspapers publish re-
port that Russia has decided to appeal
to the powers to avert war. This II
regarded here as proof Of Russia's Un-
readiness to make satisfactory conces-
sions.
A high official said that the anti
American irritation in certain govern
ment quarters at st. Petersburg is due
to the conviction that Japan's aggres-
siveness is largely the result of the
American attitude, which presumably
is based ,on fear that the Manchurian
treaties will not be respected, although.
the official insisted, the United States
was informed months ago that Russia
would recognize them.

declined to give Russia any assurances
