NOTICE TO CONSIGNEES. S.S. "EMPRESS OF RUSSIA,”
"For a long time the Russian press has been agitating for energetic measures to be taken by the Russian Government in East Asia. This policy has been specially insisted upon by the Nationalist papers in Moscow. The Colos Moskvy is strongly in favour of the annexation of Northern Manchuria, regarding this as the only available method for effect- ively counteracting Japanese advances. Affairs in Monglia, especially the out and out failure of Russian industrial endeavours in that district, are being carefully followed by Rusoich papers, and commented upon with great bitterness. Of late the Chauvi nistic tendencies of the Moscow preas have made themselves very conspicuous, particularly in con- section with the journey of the Russian Minister of War to the Far East.: The Utor Rossi to rent. an influential nowapapur, gives great prominence to this par
