MUKSEN.-In spite of the unrest

in South Manchuria caused by the Sino-Russian disputes, the pros perity of Muzde and its province has been almost undisturbed. This rich territory is adding daily to the lead it has gained over the rest of

While North Manchuria has suffered heavy losses, the most re liable foreign and Chinese observers etate that South Manchuria has escaped unscathed. In fact, North Manchuria's "less has been South Manchuria's gain.

They are determined not to permit Japanese interests to expand beyond the railway zone and the leased ter- ritory around Dairen, and seemi confident of their ability to keep the Japanese in hand.
