a Washington special to the Record-Her-
aid says:
Preparations to increase the United
States naval force in Asiatic. waters by
and a move to put little backbone into
the nerveless government at Picking are
the developments of today.
Secretary Hay, spokesman for the
president and guardian OF the interests
Of China. today urged the Chinese min
the necessity. Of meeting the Russian
note in q vigorous manner, and the
Chinese minister has sent long cable
grams imploring his government to is
sue at once joint note to the powers,
categorically denying the Russian accu-
good her charges or withdraw them. It
will then be up to Russia to make good
with something besides mere general
tatements.
A. most interesting game Of diplomacy
is ON and Russia has much more than
the childlike and bland Chinese, to. deal
with: If Russian diplomacy finds its
match, the checkmate is likely to come
from Washington and not from Picking.
An interesting phase is that the Chin
csc government is to make counter accu-
Stations. showing how it is Russia and
not China that has violated neutrality.
China Has Had No Note.
Picking, Jan. 19.-The Chinese gov
eminent complains that it has received
no communication from Russia, and con-
sequently is ignorant Of the specific
charges. immediately after China is
acquainted with the contents Of the
Russian note the government will reply.
It is generally considered in diplo-
matte circles here that China has made
genuine and persistent efforts to pre-
serve neutrality. The recent Russian
attempt to smuggle arms thru Chinese
territory is pointed to as proof that
Russia is ready to disregard China Is
rights when it suits her to do so:
