III - TIE Japanese minister Of Foreign At
fa y. settlement of the postal question III
MaEIUrta have reached Peking. but they have
no, et been presented to the Foreign Board. 1t
has been learned also that Japan consents TO
submit at once proposals Tor the settienen of
the telegraph difficulty. China fears however
that these proposals will be in the nature of a
compromise. and that they consequently will be
unacceptable. Japan. it would appear here, has
yielded to the wishes of Great Britain and the
general criticism OF her in the postal con-
troversy, but China does not believe that Great
Britain will so further and oppose the carrying
out of Japan's programme in Manchuria.
Following the exception taken by Great
Britain TO Japan's protest against the extension
by China of the Hsin- -Min-Tun Railroad to the
north, japan has taken firm stand in this
matter. Her attitude is based the verbal
promise given by China which was incorporated
in the minutes of the negotiations preceding the
Komura treaty of 1905-namely, not TO construct
a competing railroad parallel to the existing
South Manchurian line. In authoritative
quarter it was said to-day shat Japan would
forbid the construction OF any parallel or other
lne unless it was connected with the japanese
lire. She fears the erection of a barrier between
her sphere Of influence and Mongolia, and de-
sires that all new railroads be branches of the
South Manchurian line.
AT the present time China is opposed to any
further consideration Of this question on account
Of the attitude assumed by Russia
The fact that Russia is transferring the mails
to the japanese in Manchuria because China Is
not a member of the postal union. and is. there
fore not qualified to receive them, has caused
China TO reconsider her persistent refusal 10
join the union, and she is now considering 'he
matter Of apnlying for membership.
