the way, but that entire territory is now
under military control and these posts
would be within the sphere of the war
operations. Furthermore, trade is at a
standstill at present and authority can
not comprehend why Washington should
press this matter now. None of the
other powers is seeking to take imme-
diate advantage of the privileges ac-
corded by the japanese treaty.
LAS far as concerns Port Da1ny to
which place an American commercial
agent has been appointed, the situation
is even worse, as it is not impossible
that the military authorities will soon
request all foreigners to leave there"
The Russian reply to Secretary Hays
note is practically ready and will be
handed to Ambassador Mccormick in
day or two. possibly tomorrow. It will
be along the lines already indicated in
these dispatches. In diplomatic circles
here Secretary Hays action is consid-
cred a fine stroke of diplomacy, as it is
believed the note has brought out gen
era1 acquiescence in the principle in
volved.
Owing to existing conditions in the
field and the difficulties in the way of
providing suitable accommodation,
Niceroy Alexieff has recommended that
the foreign military attaches should not
join the Russian army until about
March 4, and the viceroy's views on this
matter will be communicated to the
governments which have applied for the
privilege of observing the war from the
Russian side.

TOO SWIFT FOR RUSSIA
She Can't Understand Why
Uncle Sam Is in a Hurry.

St. Petersburg, Feb. 19.-The informa-
ton contained in press dispatches from
Washington that Secretary Hay had
announced the negotiations in connec-
tion with his note to the powers on the
subject of the integrity of China to be
closed without awaiting Russia's formal
response, came as a surprise to official
circles here.
An official of the foreign office to
whom the representative of the Asso-
ciated Press talked on this matter ap-
peared to be rather nonplussed at this
conclusion to the American proposition,
but he displayed no irritation. He said:
IF this is true it has not changed
the Russian programme Not to await
Russia's reply might. however, offend
Russian susceptibilities and tend still
further to increase the feeling already
existing here in certain quarters that
the United States is not friendly to
Russia.
I'm this connection there is no doubt
the government feels somewhat embar-
Tassed by the desire of the United
States to install consuls in the open
ports Of Manchuria Immediately. The
government does not like to be placed
