 Yin Row. Feb. 24-Viceroy Alexieff has caused a proclamation to be issued throughout Manchuria notifying the Chinese that Russia is at war with Japan on account of Japan's treacher- ous attack on the Russian fleet.

 Third-The people shall continue their occupations and shall treat the Russian troops with confidence.
 Fourth-The railroad telegraphs are left to the protection of the people, who will be held responsible in case they are injured.

 Sixth-If the people antagonize the troops or show them hatred they will be exterminated without mercy. The gov ernment is taking all steps, in any event, to protect it's interests.
 The proclamation makes an earnest appeal for the sympathy of the people in the present crisis when it says, Rus sia must put her back to the walla
