VIII he Hard to Work Out ia
PractIce-Russia Also
Hostile.

TOXIC, Jan. s.-The leading newspa-
perS In their issues of tomorrow disap-
prove of the acceptance by Japan of Sec
retAry Knox's proposition for the neu-
tralization OF the Manchurian railways.
The consensus of opinion here is that the
plan is impracticable because Japan
would not receive a benefit proportionate
With the sacrifice entailed.
II Is held that the interests Of the Japa-
nese settlers in southern Manchuria
could not be protected under Il an ar
.rahgement. Official circles remain nom
committal on the subject, 1t is generally
believed here that Russia viii decline to
accept the American suggestion.
The newspapers Will point out that the
commercial neutrality of southern Man
'shuria was guaranteed by the treaty Of
Portsmouth.
The first information which the public
&, had of the American note was contained
In extended news dispatches from Wash
lngton printed this morning. They were
u-naccompanied with editorial expressions.
Although the members OF the cabinet
and other government officials declined
to give the slightest intlmatiOn OF their
official views, IL nay be stated with as
B surance that the Japanese government Is
now comforting with Russia and the tenor
Of Japan's reply will depend largely on
the position taken at st. Petersburg,
II is no secret that the Japanese states
men regard the American proposition as
one which would be extremely difficult to
work out in practice. The authorities in.
sist that the attitude Of their government
Is clearly and sufficiently outlined in the
Portsmouth, treaty. the provisions of which
they assert always have been carried out
.s%crupulously.
There Is no intlmation OF when Japan's
reply to the note will be forthcoming, but
there is reason TO believe that the govern
ment Will not concede the necessity OF q
change In existing conditions. through
which a claim OF equal opportunity is af-
forded, unless, at least. the contemplated
project would give the s]trictest guarantees
for the future safeguarding OF Japan's in.

The japanese experts do not regard the
construction OF a railroad from Aigun n
northern ManchuriR TO Chin Chow FL
as a practical business proposition. In tn,

refers TO the concession for such a line
which was obtained some time ago by 4
