It Is a very plausible statement that Count Casslnl, the lUtsshiu ambassador to the United States, has made In regard to the alleged purpose of Hussla In Manchuria. Needless to say, It ls In full accord with the assurances that havo been given by tho Husslun minis ter of foreign affairs, but as these havo not been accepted with unquestioning conlldence by Great Urltaln and the United States, and perhaps by somo of the other powers, tho Htntement or the ambassador wlll not remove all doubt as to tho slneurlty of tho Husslan gov eminent professions. It may bo admitted that there was good reason for the early operations of Hussla In Manchuria, that tho hostile it. Jt.t 41... ,.,.n.l .

Another reason able causu of distrust of Husslan pro fessions was tho report of secret ne gotiations at St. refersburg between ollloluls of China and Hussla, reasonably nssunied to hnvo reference to Man churia.
