RUSS0-jAPANESE PACT
PLEASING TO CHINA
Pekinq Government Glad Ma.
tons Will Adhere to Terms
of Portsmouth Treaty.

PEKING, July 21.-Chinas reply 10
the announcement of the recently con-
cluded Russo-Japanese convention was
delivered at the legations Of these two
countries today.
As had been expected. the Peking gov
eminent does not fail TO point out It's
satisfa ction at the expressed purpose
upon the part of Russia and Japan to
adhere to the terms Of the Portsmouth
treaty and over the mutual pledge Tor
the maintenance in Manchuria of the
status quo and the principle OF the open
door for commercial development.
In this connection China lays special
emphasis upon article Ill of the Ports
mouth treaty, which reads as follows:
"Japan and Russia mutually engage a.
to evacuate completely and simultaneous
" Manchuria. except the territory al
fected by the lease of the Liau-Tung
neninsuIa. in conformity with the pro-
visions Of additional article l annexed to
this treaty and (2) to restore entirely
and completely to the exclusive admin
istration of China all portions of Man
churia now in the occupation. or under
the control, of the Japanese or Russian
troops. with the exception of the terri
tory above mentioned. The government
of Russia declares that it has not in
Manchuria any territorial advantages OF
preferential or exclusive concessions in
impairment of Chinese sovereignty or in
consistent with the principle of equal
opportunity
China to Live Up to Treaty.
After noting that the Russo-Japanese
convention engages to maintain the
previous agreement regarding Manchuria
including its ultimate retrocession tC
China, the reply states that China will
act in accordance with the Portsmouth
treaty and the agreement with Japan Of
1905, which confirmed the transfer and
assignments made in the Russo-Japanese
treaty, and regulating the commercial and
railway interests in Manchuria.
Copies of the Chinese reply were de-
livered at all the legations and to the
press simultaneously. The Chinese gov
eminent, fearing that the Russo-Japanese
accord may precourse an aggression In
Manchuria and Mongolia, against which
II cannot make a successful resistance
seeks in self-defense to give the widest
publicity to the earlier pledges Of Russis
and Japan. 1t Is generally recognized
here that the clauses and phraseology OF
the reply were specially drafted in &C.
cordance with the policy OF tho United
States, TO which China looks for q back.
ing.
In accepting the Chinese note, II. Ijuin
Japanese minister to China. assured the
Chinese representatives that Japan did
not contemplate any manner OF aggres.
sion. and added that time would prove
that Japan was the true friend Of China.
