an Extension of One of Its
Own Lines North of Pekin.

Own Lines North of Pekin.
Pekin, March 4-The Russian gov
ernment in a formal note rejects in
toto the Chinese proposal for the con-
struction of the Aigun and Chinchow
railroad. The Russian note includes
a counter proposal for the extension
of the Kalgan railroad by foreign cap
ital to Baika1, Russia, to build Siber-
ian section. This proposal, as we'll as
Russla's rejection of the Aiugin plan,

Russian government alleges China
gave in 1898. that she will not con-
struct any railways north of Pekin
without first consulting the Russian
government.
