THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, TUESDAY, JUNE 23,
OPINIONS FROM A HIGH SOURCE ON AFFAIRS IN
THE FAR EAST.
Writing to the Pal Mall Gazette, Mr. F. Coleman says:-Many men of many minds have expressel t' emselves in one way and an- other concerning the question of the Russian aggrandisement in Manchuria.
Most men who may be descubes as well-informed have accepted the plainly evident fact that Russia has come to Manchuria to stay. Few, however, have hid stress upon the benefits which any o her part of the world except Russia might derive from this move on the part of the Russian
Government. I have had the pleasure of hear ing a few opinions from a very high diplomatie possible to divulge juss what that source is which, to say the last, deal with the Man churian subject in a most bread minded man- ner. Lest the reader might be inclined to think the views expre sed were in themselves indicative of their source I may say that the diplomat in question is not a Russian.

though his knowlerige of the trend of affairs in S. Petersburg is almost as great as if he were Minister of the Tsar in the Russian capital. "The first real tangible evidence of a desire in the part of Russia to absorb Manchuria," hegan my informant, was found in Russia's action at the close of the Chino-Japanese war. At the time Russia warned japan away, for the plain a simple reason that Russia wanted Manchuria for herse'.

Her merchants are doing a flourishing business under their own names in various parts of Manchuria, and are increasing in number, while not far away, in another pro vince of China which is of much more import- ance to Japan, thirty thousand or more Japa- nese settlers are hard at work. Japanese public opinion is an unknown quantity. It plunged Japan into war, with China, or rather with Li Hung Chang, for it was against his arrogance that the war was aimed. Yet even the wisest heads in Japan thought that a few battles in Corea would bring Li to his senses and see him suing for peace. When he proved ob- durate, however, and operations were extended,
the strength and depth of Japanese public opinion were shown to be considerable. any time cause public opinion in Japan to drive "Ovent acts on the part of Russia might at the Japanese Government toaction: but Moura vief is clead, and the day of overt acts on the past of Russia is gone.

[The deceased Cardinal was born a Glou- cester, April 15th, 1832, and received his education at Stonyhurst College, Lancashire, on the Continent, and in Rome, where he entered the Accademia dei nobili Feclesiastici. He was ordained a prest at 1. ccu, Dci, 26, 1854, and, returning to England, joined the Oblates of St, Charles, a congr gation of secular priests founde i at Bayswater by the late Cardinal Manning. From the Oblates he was sent to St. Edmund's College, near Ware, of which he was Vice-President until 1863. He went in 1863 to America in order to gather funds for founding a Missionary College. In 1869 he founded, and was until his death President-fieneral of, St. Joseph's Foreign Missionary Colle, e, Mill Hill, Middlesex, and towards the close of the year 1871 accompanied to Maryland the fist detach-

ANTARCTIC RESFARCH.
AN INDIGNANT PROTEST. Sir Cléments Markham, president of the Royal Geographical Society, Indignantly protests the statement relative to the society made in the Commons last night by the Prime Minister. He asserts that the society original- ly and repeatedly indicated the necessity for a relief ship.
It had been announced that Mr. A. J. Balfour had stated in the Commons that the Govern-
ment was prepared to contribute to the relief of the Antarctic exploring vessel Discovery, through the confidence of the Goverment in the two s cieties-the Royal Geographical Society and the Royal Society-promoting the expedition had been rudely shaken.
PIERFONT MORGAN FORCERIES.
ARREST OF AN ART DEALER. Count Basdari, a dealer in art gems, former- of London, has been arrested at Alexandria charged, in company with others, with frauds and forgeries of bills of exchange on Mr. J. Pierport Morgan and others.
The following interesting cutting is-skenly from a San Francisco journal of the 21st ult:
When the new dryd ́ck at Hunters Point went into commission in the early part of this year there was added to the equipment of the port a factor which will play an important part in San Francisco's ability to care for her in- creased commerce which is being handled with ships of ever increasing dimensions. The value of the dock was demonstrated yesterday by the case with which the Pacific Mail Company's big twin screw Siberia was accommodated in the huge basin,
Under the direction of Superintendent John Beaton, the liser was on Tuesday evening adjusted carefully and exactly in the centre of the big dock. The gate was closed, the water pumped out and yesterday morning the largest steamship on the Pacific was high and dry and in the hands of an army of scraper armed mechanics, who with industrial effort prepared the liner's outside shell for another army of painting men.
Alongside the Pacific Mail dock or steaming past the shipping in the harbour the Siberia looks something of the giant she is, but it takes a view in the dry dock, where every inch of her hull from keel to rail can be seen, to get the full impression of her enormous size. From the hottom of the dock, facing the vessel's stern nd looking up at the enormous twin screws, she suggests something in which the adventur ous creations of Jules Verne might have taken rides through space and gives a somewhat startling idea of what is meant by a displace.
ment of 18,6 o tons.
A large number of prominent shipping men visited Hunters Point during the day to the Siberia, but more specially to inspect the basin, which she does not nearly fill. The dock, which is one of the largest and finest in the world, was planned and built by Howard Holmes. It has responded to the test of use in every way with satisfaction and the best tribute to the manner in which Holmes carried out his trust is the fact that this huge piece of engineering was completed and is working per-
the estimates of the original specifica ions.
The Siberia is 572 feet long. The length of

There is season to bel eve that Li Hung Chang foresaw some thing of what has occurred since his death, and that he was of the opinion that it was wiser to let Manchuria go and draw the Chinese Ent- pire proper closer together.

No, The Manchu-Government of China long since ceased to be Manchu, and became Chinese, Manchuri has been a never-ending source of Iouble to China since Chinese history began, and I think there are many influential minds in Peking that think China would be loser of but little were Manchuria to go into Russian hands.
