Russia has seen fit to increase the number of her Legatlon Guards at Peking too, although her force already there & considerably outnumbers that of any other Power, and this is doubtless but the first step towards the occupation of Peking by Russian troops. The usurping Empress Dowager is evidently under the thumb of Russia and therefore Russia will do her utmost to keep her in power. The Empress Dowager and her party are the enemies of all progress and advancement in western science and learning and are consequently playing into the hands of Russia the whole time by retarding the awakening of China un!l!
