RAILROADS AND TELEGsAPHs.
Tho Chinese say that the Japanese are
monopoiizing their telegraph business.
During the war they constructed milf
tary lines in every direction. They con-
nected all the important cities and viz
.lages. and when peace was declared
they had inclosed southern Manchuria,
in network OF wires which was con-
trolled by the Japanese government
The Chinese claim that as the war is
now over all lines except those neees-
sary for the railroads should be done
away with To this Japan has ut last
agreed but 1t insists that China pay
time IA Japanese telegraph messenger
shall be in each of the city offices in
order to be a BILE to telegraph In Japa-
nese. This makes the Chinese pay for
the lines. and at the same time prac-
tically Keeps them in the hands of the
Japanese.

ment is told in connection with ths

We're ready to begin work when the
Japanese blocked the construction by

that objection if they we're given half
interest in the road to Kirin The
Japanese sent their engineers over tho
road and from them got report that
it would cost $9,000,000 to build It, This
was more than double the estimate of
the Chinese engineers. and as it was a

money was to be borrowed from Japan,

another struggle between the japanese
and the Russians, with this thckly
populated grain producing, food-sup-s

Japanese must have more territory be-
fore they can support larger armies
& than they now have. Their land is
crowded with their 10000. 900. Russia
already has as many people, and it
could put many Japans into Siberia
and nave room to spare. Verify, the
end is not yet.
THE JAPANESE IN MANcHUR1A.
1t Is wonderful how the japanese
have crowded the Russians out of
southern Manchuria. The only remains
left by the c2ar are the magnificent
buildings at Dalny and Port Arthur
and the railroad upon which Russia
spent somethirg like $500. 100000. Even
these are being rapidly changed. The
T line to NIukdcn has been doubla-4
tracked and better stations erected. The
buildings of DalnS have been improved
and new town is going UP on the edge
CT the harbor. The names of the streets
have been changed and we now have
such avenues as 3Oyama and Nogi. The
Russians signs over the stores hase
disappeared, and Japanese signs have
toll. ,oS,, la I.,k .1xx~, a,
only remains of the Russians are a.
lot of broken-down droschlsies and anti
quated dirt carts; these have fallen in-$
TO the hands of the Chinese and are
now to be seen among the jinrikishas
on every highway
u The Japanese have established schools
in Dalny and Port Arthur and they
have also schools in Mukden. They
are chiefly for Japanese children. and,
SO far as can see,Japan is not. attempt
ing to push the western civilization
into this country as into Korea. The
Japanese who have come here are much,
tho same as those who are flooding
Korea. They come from the scum OF
the japanese cities, and are much
3roIgher element than the soldiers Of
the Japanese army.
JAPANESE COLONIZATION "a FAIL
URE
So far as I can learn. the attempted
Japanese colonization OF Mnnchuria has
been failure. Mr.. Olfabe, the Japa-.
tnese consul at Muitden. tells me his peu-
pie are fast going back home and that
they do not find Manchuria suited TO
them. Said he:
There are now only about 10000
Japanese in the country--I mean ont
side of our military forces. The most
of them are at Dalny and Port Arthur.
although there are small settlements Ill
the towns along the railroad, and we
have about 5000 here in Mukden. Man.

its southern part the good lands are all

THE JAPANESE IN. MUKDEN.
What Mr.. okabe says is undoubtedly
true. The japanese stores are near the
camps and about the railway stations
There are but few of them in the Man
chu cities, and those at Mulden are a
mile or so from the ccnters of the Chi
snescs population They have built their
stores japanese fashion, and they look
scold and mean in comparison with the
substantial one-story brick buildings of
the Chinese. The business conditions

BULLDozING THE CHINESE
/ hear considerable criticism OF the
Japanese methods employed in Man
chura. The natives claim that the
Japanese are exploiting them and that
they are squeezed at every turn.
One instance OF this was rs to the
electric lighting of Mukden. The
railway station is four miles from the
city and the city itself has its electric
light plant erected by the capital OF
the Manchurian Chinese. The Japa-
nese railway company has an electric
plant at the depot, and, according
to its agreement, it cannot extend It's
wires beyond its own concession nor
supply the current to the general pub
lie Nevertheless the Japanese re-
certify besan$to erect poles all the way

right into the town when the Chinese
objected After n great deal of dis
cussion the work was stopped, but
the Japanese insisted that the Chinese

what they had done or for erecting
