EMPEROR SEEKS EXPLANATION
Injuries Directed to Embassy at

consul Fisher Supported Protest of
Taoti of Harbin Regarding Estab-
lishmcnt OF municipalities.

c. petersburg, March 31.--The Rus
elan government is disturbed by the at
u,rde assumed by Fred d. Fisher, the
American consul at Hardin, in the mat
fer Of recognizing the jurisdiction of
,,,ssio IN Nanchuria. Mr.. Fisher in
.,s,g that Chinese sovereignty in Man
obrria is supreme and furthermore, no
has supported the protests of CHINA
ogainst the establishment by Russia OF
municipalities in the railroad zone at
rarbin and Chailar Independent of the
Chinese government, and his attitude IN
this Russo Chinese difficulty has
nrompted Russia to seek an explana-
+,on Of his course both at the Ameri-
can embassy here and in Washington.
RECOGNIZES CHINA ALONE.
Mr.. Fisher is accredited TO China and
since his arrival in Hardin, in January.
1907 he has consistently refused to rec
ognize or admit that he should have
ANYTHING to do with the Russian adj
ministration of the territory. lie mas
been firm in his assumption that he
was accredited solely to China and ne
has declined to act on the suggestion
convened to him by an official of the
Russian railroad administration that
he should secure the permission of Gen.
Horyath, the Russian governor of Har-
bin. before opening his consulate or
raising the American flag over the
building.
TREATY OF 1896.
Under the treaty OF nls96 Russia
claims exclusive control over the rail
road zone in Manchuria, as well as the
right TO organize independent self-gov-
erning municipalities. The Taotai of
Hardin protested against this to the
Russian governor and to the consuls
,of the United States and Japan. The
Japanese, who are now cooperating in
the friendliest manner with the Rus
slams in Manchuria. rejected this pro-
test, but Mr.. Fisher supported it.
The foreign office here expresses the
belief that it would be decidedly to the
interest of the United States to recog-
nize the Russian administration of
Manchuria, inasmuch as foreign resi-
dents share in the privileges of this
administration.
