that number of Senators who voted
for the exoneration OF Mr.. Lorimer

SOUTH RICHMOND

Citizens May Elect Representa-.

Manchester.

For the purpose OF discussing the po-
sition of the former city of Manches-
ter in relation TO the State govern
.ment. Senator j. B. Watkins and Cap
tain W. w. Baker. of Chesterfield, Wis
tied the Capitol Saturday. The point
may be raised In connection with the
coming election for members of the Con
eral Assembly, especially IL there is op.
position to the incumbents.
Under the last superintendent OF
members OF The Legislature, operative
next winter, the Sixteenth Senatorial
District is composed Of the counties
of Chesterfield. Goochland and Powha-
tan end the city of Manchester. The
city Of Manchester is now no more.
and tho city OF Richmond ccmposes the
Thirty-elghth District, with two mem
bers. The question is. should the peo-
pie of South Richmond vote with the
rest OF the city for Senators, or should
they consider themselves as still Man
chester. when. under the laws of the
State, that municipality has gone out

Some of tho officials AT the Capitol
expressed the view that until the Leg
islature itself takes cognizancc of the
annexation, It's members will he elected
as heretofore, and the change Will be
considered for representative purposes
as not having been made. The Cen

the qualifications OF its members and
OF the Legality OF tlieir election i has
never been officially notified that Man

The Impression prevails, therefore.
that the people OF Manchester VIII vote

WAR CURRENT
RUNS STRONG
There Is Difference of Opinion as to
What Measures to Pursue Against
the Chinese-Japan's Position
Causes Speculation.

st, Petersburg, March 1.-THE Rus
sian-C Chinese embroglo has developed
three distinct situations of considerable
concern to Russia. First, Russia learns
that China has deep-seated distrust
and resentment, greatly responsible for
the failure of amiable negotiations.
Next, Novoe Vremya intimatcs that
there is discord in the government over
measures to be undertaken against
the disquieting dispatches from the
army of occupation on the Chinese from
tier Adyices received describe dis
turbance among the soldiers over the
poor quality Of food and state that
an outbreak was narrowly prevented
The Russian government declares that
Chna's attitude viii lead inevitably to
disturbance of the friendly relations
between the two countries.
The military party fayors utilizing
the crisis TO strengthen the Russian gar
risons in the far east and to correct
the frontier strategically at China's ex-
pense. Political circles take great in
terest in Japan's attitude towards the
Russo Chinese crisis. The speech of FL.
Iiuin. Japanese minister to China, in
which he declared for the integrity of
China, is commented upon as a possible
warning TO Russia that Japan is jeal-
Gus lest Russia should gain too great
advantages as the outcome oil clash
with China.
