BUILT ON BENSIBLE LINES.

Russia promptly set to work to see that Harbin should be built on sensible lines from the outset should be planned before it was built. She determined that the town should be purely Russian and already it is being called the Moscow of the Last. For miles around the land has been secur el, and only Russians or Chinese may own land, make buildings, or carry on any per manent business in or near it. In 1901 the Russian population was 12,000, in May, 1903, 44,000, and last October 60,000 with-- out counting soldiers, Japanese, Germina, Austrians, Greeks, Turks, and all other races only numbered 700. The Chinese population totalled 40,000, in a separate settlement.

&

GROWTH OF FOPULATION.

And the flow of Russian population to Harbin is no mere transient thing, Noarly third of the sixty thousand Russian civilians were women. A fine church has been built, a number of hotels, an impus- | ing railway station, Government buildinge, hospitals, a magnificent bank, fine business streets and even such adjuncts of civilisa- tion as a School of Commerce and a Wo- men's College! More than £3,000,000 has been spent on the public buildings alone, and an electric tramway, an automobile line, and electric lighting have been pro- vided. Like the London County Council, the Russian Government retains the land in its own hands, and lets it to builders on a lease of a little over 80 years.

POOR CHANCE FOR THE FOREIGNER. One of the features of the town is the Russo-Chinese Bank, an institution en- ergetically worked in the interests of Russian trade. Liberal Loans are granted to Russians doing a genuine and prudent business, on the security not of land or buildings, but of the enterprise themselves. A system of letters of credit to Chinese mer- chants for the purchase of Russian goods in rapidly increasing Russian exports to Man- churia, enabling the Chinese to carry on the commerce, for which they are so eminently fitted, among their own countrymen, and at the same time securing the Russian ex- porter against loss. The bank also facili- tates the export of Manchurian products, but will do nothing for foreigners.

THE VIEWS OF IVAN

IVANOVITCH.

The Moscow correspondent of the London Morning Leader sends to that journal a picturesque description of a talk he had with a Russian reservist. The article reade

as follows:-

A note from a friend was brought to me to-day by a "krasnain shapka,' or red-cap, as the commissionaire here is commonly called, from the scarlet headgear of his ollico.

katzap,

The man was a typical

or Great Russian, blonde, merry-eyed, and

of stalwart stature and physique.

Tho krasnais shapka' is literally 'the man in the street,' and his knowledge or ignorance of the cause for which his coun is fighting in Eastern Asia is the know- ledge or ignorance of the popular mass of Russians.

• You are not a roservist?' I asked, after slipping the usual tip into his palm.

Oh, yes, barin (monsieur), in the Second Line Reserves. I have already received my 'povićska' (notification) to hold myself

in readiness for active service."

And you are ready and willing to go to Manchuria to fight for the Gossudar' (Go- vernor of all Governors)?

The commissionairo's hands fumbled the red-cap and his eyes were downcast for a hesitating moment, then, looking me very earnestly in the faço, he said: 'Skazlitye mae pozhaluista, barin (please excusu me) what is this place Manchuria ? And why ry our brothers going there to fight ?'

Well, tu videsh (seest thou), it is this way. Russia has built a railway through Manchuris, and she must not allow it to bo injured. And the Japanese say that the Russians are not to remain in Man- cburia, and that is why your brothers and the Y penzi (Japanese) are going to fight."

Suddenly, advancing a step nearer to me, ind with slightly lowered voice, he added: Barin, as you are a Gospodin Anglit. hanin (English gentleman), and will not repeat what I say. I may tell you that my Cousin, Arseni Mihailovitch, who is a organt in theth, says that his comrades do not like this war, not one of them; and not only that, but he has heard his Captain and other officers talking among themselves and saying that the Dalni Vostok (Far East) would be the ruin of Russia,'
