BRIEF HISTORY OF WAR.

VI
In 1858, China then being engrossed
with the TAPPING rebellion. Russia.
rnder pretence of ''rectification of
the frontier. compelled cession of
the Chinese territory north of the
Amur river In 1860 the allied
French and English forces being in
Pekin, Russia wrestled from China by
treaty the Manchurian coast line be-
tween the Ussurl river and the ocean.
In 1896. by the so called Cassini con-
vention. Russia obtained the right to
extend the Siberian railroad through
Manrhuria. In 1895 Russia. Germany
and France. in a collective note. ''ad-
vised'' the Japanese government to
surrender back to China Port Arthur
and the Liao-t tung peninsula, ceded to
Japan by the treaty of Shimonieski.
In 1898. Russia the hold of Japan be-
ing loosed. secured lease" of Port
Arthur and the peninsula. In 1908
it became clear to the world and es-
pecially to Japan that Russian designs
extended also to and over Korea.
Such, in brief. is the record of the
steady Russian advance in eastern
Asia. The frontier has never been
moved back although most plentiful
assurances have been given of absence
of intention to acquire additional ter
rory. To go no farther back than
the Japo- Chinese war, we find in 1898
solemn pledge that the occupation of
Port Arthur was only temporary. to
secure harbor for the wintering Of
the Russian fleet and that both it and
its companion Talienwan. should be
free of foreign commerce. April 9th.
1903. the Manchurian convention was
signed under which Russia agreed
gradually to evacuate Manchuria and
to complete the process within eighteen
months As often as suspicion was
cast on Russian good faith the Rus

Secretary of State. Hay. promised to
withdraw. yet the work of fortifying
has steadily gone on and it is now adj
mitted that Mapehuria is as Russian
as is Siberia. Indeed so accepted is
this possession. that the present crisis
is not over Manchuria but is due to
the Korean situation. the little dis
guised attemp. of Russia to seize the
Korean port of Yongampho.
Korea is as adjacent to Japan as
Cuba is to Florida. and japan point

Russia's acts as at least constructive
notice of her ,ustful intentions as to
Korea. and rightfully deems it essen

Korea be not Russianized. Any one
