It Is pointed out further that Russia has two objects in her present operations in China—the rescue and protection of the foreign legationers and the protection of her menaced frontier. The avowed object of the other powers is simply the rescue and protection of the legationers and other foreign subjects In carrying out her second object, Russia has seized New Chwang. This was done to obtain & base of operations from which the frontier could easily be reached, precisely as Taku was seized as a base of operations by the allies in their operations agalnst Pekin United States Not Likely to Retire, Whether in the event of a declaration of war by one or more powers against China, an invitation would be extended to the United States to retire from China, as intimated In the dispatch from Che Foo, 1s open to doubt and it is decidedly prob- lematical, it is sald, whether the invitation would be accepted, even if it were ten- dered. The United States forces are in China protecting the personal and property rights of citizens of this country and in addition the treaty rights of the United States. Under the most favored nation clause, this country has certain specific rights In China and it is said on authority to be the purpose of the United States to protect and preserve those rights. The at- titude this government would assume in the event of a declaration of war by another power would depend, it is stated, upon im- mediate circumstances surrounding the declaration and the situation in China at the time the declaration was made. In any event it can be said to be no part of the purpose of the United States to sacrifice any of its guaranteed rights or privileges fn the Chinese empire.
