Russia Grants Identical Note in Manchuria Talks
A London to St. Petersburg dispatch says Russia instructed its diplomatic agents to deliver an identical note to other governments as Count Cassini did to Secretary Hay. The note states Russia does not insist on any new agreement and will await further events, aligning with China negotiations and avoiding pressure. The US sees this as a sign of harmony and prudent conduct amid Manchuria talks, while British papers warn Russia not to back away and anticipate Japanese and allied support if integrity of China is challenged.
