ture is impending of a pact esta blish
Ing a defensive alliance between Rus
sia and Japan.
This momentous development would
seem to be connected with the APP
proaching trip to Russia of the Jap
anesc statesman, Prince katsllra, but
his visit is a mere coincidence.
The actual agreement WAS fully con
cluded fortnight ago and probably
will be signed for Japan by Baron
Motono, the Japanese ambassador to
Russia, who was its nesntiator and
prime mover.
The agreement consists of tMo parts.
one dealing with the deiinitatiuli Of
the spheres of Influence OF Russia and
Japan in Mongolia and Manchria
which is similar in scope of character
to the Anglo Russia accord of August
81. 1897. regarding Persia The second

officials Wake Up.

Washington, July 25.-The state de-
partlnent has been informed that Rus
sia and Japan have formed a close
alliance. although the department does
not believe that England is party to
the contract as alleged in unauthorized
dispatches from Pekin and Toxic.
Scarcely two months ago "a New York
newspaper printed the text of a secret
agreement between Japan and Russia
which showed their community of in
terest in the northern half of China
1t is now admitted at the department
that there are "ponrparlerS going or
between Russia and Japan over a
treaty.
In the opinion Of officials here. Japan
and Russia have deted the other four
powers and have challenged them to
contest the rights of Russia over Mon
golia and OF Japan over Manchura.
"six Power Concert"
The diplomacy of Russia and Japan
has go obviously induced the two
great provinces of China To work with
them to defeat the loan and every 9th
Ell attempt of Great Britain and the
United States to check the aggres
sions of the czar and the nikadu that
it is no longer denied at the state de

Russia ara Japan bTpke UP the IN
Sernational bankers conference by de-
manding that their rights in Mongolia
and Manchuria should be considered In
the financial agreement for the re
habilitltion OF China. There is now
no stX-power concert in China.
Russia and Japan have taken their
stand and with their grip on the two
best provinces of a practically dis
membered China. there is nothing to
Indicate how they may be ousted.
