forces are approaching northern Manchuria.
 The dispatch quotes a message to the North China Mail from Harbin, reporting that the Bol sheViki have seized rolling stock on the Chinese Eastern railway to the westward of Manchuli and are disoreanizine traffic.
 AMERICA HANDS OFF
 WASHINGTON, March 6.-lt was made plain today that the United States has neither as- sented nor dissented to any plan of Japan for action in Siberia and that previous statements that no direct communications have been exchanged between the two gov ernments on the subject were correct.
 The American government has been fully informed concerning the situation by Great Britain, Japan's ally by special treaty, and discussions between London and Washington are continuing. But so far as can be learned Japan has not even indirectly asked the approval of her plan by the United States, conse- quentIy the latter is not called upon to make a formal expres- sion.
 Great Britain is said to have expressed confidence in Japan's intentions, with view to alIay ing any apprehension here that Japan might do more than pro- tect the war stores at vladivo- stock and combat German ac- tivities. The understanding is that the state department has been satisfied on this point.
