VIOLATING
NEUTRALITY
JAPAN CHARGES RUSSIA WITH
USING CHINESE TERRITORY AS
A BASE FOR OPERATIONS.

TOXIC, March 4.-Much dissatisfac-
tiOn is manifested in official quarters
here over the disregard by Russians
of pledges regarding the neutrality of
China. 1t is stated here that the ter
ritory west of Lao river was recently
restored to China by the Russians.
Japan in response to notes presented
by Griscom, the American Minister,
and Won Saldern, the German Minister
promptly assured the United States and
other Powers of her intention to res
pect the neutrality of China, notwith-
standing resulting inconvenience, so
long as Russia in good faith did the
same.
Russia is reported to be preventing
China b. intimidation and formal re-
presentations from sending troops
north of Shanhaikwan for the protec-
tton of the border and for guarding i'm
perial mausoleums and palaces. If
Russia persists in invading neutral
districts Japan must avail herself of
reserved rights and do the same. This
will result in a greater advantage for
the japanese than the Russians. The
latter's action in this and the gunboat
Mandjur matter is attributed to a de-
sire to embaTass China for following
the advice of Japan and to compel her
to violate neutrality thus causing her
TO become involved in further diploma
tic complications. China's inability to
eHiciently defend herself is regarded as
calling for serious consideration, and
possibly a more definite understanding
between her and Japan.
BERLIN, March Am an interview
the Chinese ambassador said that
China is convinced that one of the bel
ligerents would endeavor to acquire
territory at her expense as compensa-
ton for the war expenses, hence China
was sending troops to the Manchurian
front Ter.

PURCHASES A
HAWAIIAN GIRL
A CHINESE ARRESTED WHILE ON
CHATEL TO A MERCHANT.

RENO, New, March 3,-Virginia
I1ldred, half breed Hawaiian girl, and
Chin Gin, a Chinese, were arrested on
their arrival here tonight from Alturas
by Chief Leeper. The officers have a
confession from the girl to the effect
that the Chinese bought her from her
parents, paying 5000. When arrested
Gin was on the way to San Francisco,
where it is stated he has a contract
with a Chinese merchant to deliver the
girl receiving $1,000 for his human
chattel
The girl is 20 years of age and quite
pretty. Gin made a statement to a
man in Alturas concerning the price
paid for the rirl and his intention of
taking her to San Francisco. He told
the girl he intended marrying her.
Both travelled as man and wife.
The girls excuse for being with the
fellow is that her mother treated her
badly at last forcing her to accompany
the Chinese. To avoid ill-treatment she
compiled. Gin will probably be re-
turned to California and prosecuted
Both are now in Jail here.

BANANAS To

CHINESE SHIPPERS ARE TRYING
TO WORK UP DEMAND IN JAPAN
FOR THE HAWAIIAN FRUIT.

Efforts are being made by local Chi
nese shippers to establish a trade in
bananas with Japan. A shipment Of 30
punches is to be sent to Yokohama to-
day on the Doric for the purpose Of
working up a market for the Hawaiian
product. 1t has been some time since
any bananas We're shipped away TO that
quarter but the Chinese merchants are
now endeavoring to work up a demand
in Japan for the fruit. 1t is understood
that shipments will be regularly made
The shipments will naturally be small
in character until greater demand
will have been created for them.

FROM WASHINGTON REGARD
ING CUSTOMS INSPECTORS.

Admiral Terry the commandant of
the naval station, states that the re-
port of his having received any cable
instructions or any orders on the sub
ject of the customs inspectors being
allowed to go on the naval wharves, is
incorrect. He has never received any
instructions on this subject from any
one.
AS a matter of fact the reason, the
Admiral states, that the customs in
spectors were permitted to go on the
wharf in connection with the presence
OF the Solace, was because Collector
Stackable had requested that such per-
mission be granted to the inspectors so
Admiral Terry permitted the inspectors
to go on the wharf.
