Steps have already been taken by
the state department to ascertain the
true inwardness of Russia’N latest
move. Ambassador McCormick at St.
Petersburg has been instructed by
cable to present to the Russian foreign
office a note which, while diploma-
ically known as one of inquiry, Ir in |
substance a strong protest against
Rusia‛‛demands. Cabled instructions
also have been sent to Minister Con-
ger at Pekin to express to the Chinese
authorities the dissatisfaction of the
United States with Russja’s demanad#
and our hope that China will not ac-
cede to them. No answers have yet
been received to cither note, though
unofficial assurances are still reaching
the department that American inter-
ests in Manchuria will be protected.
In the department s note which Am-
bassador MCCormic k probably has
presented already Rusisa’s attention is
called to the assurances width repeat-
ediv have been given the United States
relative to theepreservation of the In-
tegrity of China and the continuance
of the open door policy. Russia also
is reminded of the severe blow to
Ameriran trade which must follow the
granting of the first two demand.’,
that- no more ports or towns in Man- :
churia be opened and that no addition- ,
