I believe I am right in con fecturing that one, and the principal object of their meeting, has been, the consideration of the contingency of Russia's demanding the Viceroy's help. This is a feature of the present situation which has, so far as I know, not yet been thought of, but the contingency is extremely likely to arise. In one of the various clauses of demand made by Russia, the possibility of requiring Yuan's troops was referred to, and seeing how Russian officers have been recruiting Chinese troops in Manchuria it seems possible that her assurance will carry her a step further. in this direction. Should she make any such demand Yuan Shi Kai will be in an exceeding-
