AMERICAN FLAG RESTORED
BY RUSSIANS AT NlUCHWANG
Thought Chinese Were Using It to
Shield Themselves.

II was reported Wednesday that the
Russians have agreed to restore the
American flags ordered removed from
the buildings owned by Americans at
Niuchwang. 1t is explained that the
removal was due to the belief that
the buildings really were owned by
Chinese who wished by showing the
Stars and Stripes to avoid a police
inspection.
The Russians and Japanese are not
agreed in their reports regarding
japanese losses In the fight at Chong-
ju, the former asserting that forty
Japanese were killed and 100 wound
ed. The Japanese say FIVE men we're
killed and twelve wounded.
Russians sunk small steamer We'd
nesday, the Hanyei. while the cap
tain and other men were on board.
They we're rescued by Chinese and
taken to Chefoo.
The idea of a Russo British alliance
has gained a new champion in the
newspaper Novoe Vremya at st. Pet
ersburg, hitherto the most bitterly hos
tile to everything English. It is pos
sible that THE change is due to a hint
from the Government. A vigorous
speech by Lord Curzon of Kedleston,
Viceroy of India, in which he discusses
the expedition into Thibet, contains
little direct encouragement to friends
of the new idea yet leaves the way
distinctly open for a friendly under
standing between the two great mon
arches.
