Chinese Rejoice at Peace.
LIDZIAPUDZ. Manchuria, Sept 10
Whatever may be the feelings Of the Rus
sian or Japanese soldiers regarding the con-
clusion of peace, one man welcomes II un-
reservedly and with beaming smiles. This
is the Chinaman, on whose land the war
was fought for nearly eighteen months.
Today the roads around here are filled with
happy, smiling Chinese, men and women,
old and young, who in clumsy carts, loaded
with their household goods, are proceeding
in lines back to their old homes.
The Chinese greet the Russian soldiers
with the one word peace" which is re-
peated over and over again.
Many of their homes have been devas-
tated, but notwithstanding this they eX-
press their joy at getting back TO peaceful
and Industrious occupations. Furthermore,
the game OF neutrality to each side which
the Chinese have been obliged to play for
so many months has been a hard one and
peace has brought relief from this strain.
1t is no exaggeration TO say that the Chi
nese are now the happiest people in Man
churia.
1t is reported here that the japanese
have disbanded the Chinese bandit organ
Ization with which they operated during
the war.

ers was unauthorized. according to the
police. and the disappointed audience de-
nounced the swindle and demanded the re-
turn OF their money. The trouble finally
developed into rowdyism outside the
theater.

Of troops from Toxic arrived. They have
been posted as guards at all the consulates
