KNOX'S NATURALIZATION
PLAN TO Be TURNED DOWN
Both Japan and Russia Will Stand Together and Leave no
Room for Future Proposals From America.

Toxic Jan. 1S.--It is reported here
today upon the very best authority
that The government is arranging
to send courteous, well guarded,
but absolutely positive refusal to
accept the Knox plan of neutraliza-
tion of tie MRnchurian railway to
the United States.
The note will be couched in such
terms as to leave no room whatever
for future proposals from America
in regard to similar questions.
It is believed in official circles
here that Russia and japan will
stan dtogether and that their refu-
sails will be very much the same.
This action is expected to be
taken within a few days.

that the Chinese public and govern
ment officials are beginning tC
doubt the motive of the Knox pro
posal, and fear that it might place
China in position of greater dang
er than ever before.
There is no question of the unan-
unity of the public sentiment here
against the suggestions of Secretary
Knox. The elder statesmen are
open in their denunciation of the
suggestion.
The belief is now general among
the majority of statesmen that the
time is at hand for Japan to take a
firm stand, and, while conducting
herself in the most civil and courte-
Gus manner, make her meaning and
position so clear that there can be
no possible room for doubt.
