The Viceroy left here very suddenly yesterday by special train Peking, and it is believed that his visit is in consequence of this move on Russia's part. The air is full of reports and something is said to have occurred at Port Arthur, again that the negotiations in Tokyn have broken down. 1, can only quote for you the following letter just received from Newchwang, added to which is the assurance that the Chinese are greatly exercised over something that has happened." Whether America and Japan really expected Moukden to be thrown open to them, or only inserted the clause as a political test is not clear, but Russia has apparently lost no time in proving to the world at large that while China may be at liberty to draw up and sign matter entirely whether she can carry them as many treaties as she pleases, it is another nu.
