ceeds beog the question with the regeneration the Russian
OF course is an extraordinary for any take in the
position of Count Casn be said that unheard of posi-
ton However he has taken and doubt he has taken
Japan the wrong m unfortunately the whole correspondence
between Japan and Russia has been published and takes the sting
out OF Count Cassinis statement.
He starts with the that
only diplomacy fails and adds that as general PROPOSE
stances on recoG Diplomacy has been invoked for the specific

Russia will win battles herself and for the whole world Upon this
point the Russian ambassador lets himself loose, be
truly eloquent
Lastly the Count takes the mercantile argument He tries
show that with Russia Manchuria the will be ports and
that every advantage OF trade will be given to the United States 1t is
direct appeal the United He that Japan would
close the trade the United States and he pictures "Mancura

public opinion by offering brbe 81" we win says practically
Cassn will shut Japan from all trade Mancua
all to the United States His actual words "Wha better evidence
OF Russian friendship could America have than such opening
merge the practical sentimental could
follow for both America and Russia than mutual corporation the
stimulation of American trade in Manchuria"
