INQUIRE OF CHINA. Peking Will Have to Define
 Her Attitude. HAY TRIES TO SAVE KINGDOM. Russia Claims Neutrality Has Been Repeatedly ViOlatcd-Asserts That Chinese Bandits Act Under
 .Ja mn n cae ORcers

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17. - China's attention has again been indirectly in vited by the American government to the necessity for a faithful mainte- nance of her neutrality not only in her personal interest, but in the interest of the receipt of the full text of Count Lamsdorff's note expressing Russia's belief that China's neutrality had been repeatedly violated, prepared instruc- tions for the American charge at Picking directing him to make inquiry of the Chinese government regarding the sit uation. It is specifically declared that this action cannot in any way be con strued as indicating that this govern ment assumes responsibility for the charges made by Russia
 This government has received no in formation through it's legation at Pe- king nor through the various American consulates in China that the Chinese are violating the rules of neutrals.
 Nevertheless, in view of Russia's ex- pressed anxiety over the situation in China which her investigation dis closes, the American government is ready to do what it can to save China and the other neutral powers from the far reaching complications which it is feared would follow an extension to Chinese territory of the zone of hostili- ties
 This is the second time Secretary Hay in friendly spirit has urged on China the advantages which strict observation of neutrality holds not on- ly for her people. but the remainder of the world.
 China is the one subject of conversa- tion in diplomatic circles. At the state department Sir Mortimer Durand, the British ambassador. was among the earliest callers. He had long conver- sation with Mir. Loomis. who is acting secretary of state while NIT. Hay is confined to his house by cold.
 Shortly after Sir Mortimer left Bar on Bussche. the German charge d'af- faires. saw MT. Loomis. His visit was naturally of significance.
 Later in the day came the Japanese minister. He brought. however. no communication from his government. although he was enabled to say very positively that Japan desired sincerely 10 adhere to her agreement regarding China's neutrality.
 Sir Chentung Liang Cheng. the Chi nese minister. called on Secretary Hay at his home.
 The long heraIded Russian note reached Secretary Hay from the Rus sian embassy direct.
 Russia claims that the experience of the past eleven months has made it ev- ident that China either is unable or does not wish to adhere to her given pledges: that without going further back than the Ryeshitelni incident at Chefu if would be easy to state many cases in which the rules Of neutrality have been violated by China to the ad- vantage and profit of Japan: that it has been established many times that certain bodies cf Chinese mounted bandits have operated on neutral terri tory and that they hay" been com manded by Japanese officers; also that whOk detachments of these bandits have been enrolled in the Japanese ar my and are receiving T regular remu- neration from the government at To- Eyp
