Railroads Working.
Cheefoo, Dec. "a merchant that
arrived today from Harbin via Vladi-
vostock reports that when he left Har-
bin, nine days ago, the railroad was
being operated regularly. He arrived
at Vladvostock after journey of two
days.
At the time of his departure from
Harbin the employees Of the postal tel
egraph lines were on strike, but the
military telegraphers were working as
usual. He reports that the stories of
the destruction of property by rioters
at Harbin were incorrect, though some
demonstrations were made.
The evacuation OF Harbin and other
places along the line of the railway,
continues as fast as the transporta-
ton facilities will allow the removal
of troops. Baseless reports have been
published in far eastern papers con.
cerning the situation at Vladivostock.
The reported destruction Of the Grand
Hotel at the time OF the first disor.
ders was untrue
Private letters received by Cheefoo
merchants fail to reveal any attempt
to renew the disorders. The steamers
are constantly plying between Cheefoo
and Vladivostock, but telegraphtc
communication between Cheefoo and
Siberia has continued to be interrupt.
