AS TO CHINESE NEUTRALITY Every Point In Russian Note to Pow ers Is Answered and Retort Is Made Citing Many Viola tions by Russia. WASHINGTON. Jan. 30. The Japan ese government has made verbal de nial to the State Department here, and. It is understood, to other so.vern meats, of the Russian charges of the violation of Chinese neutrality during the present war. The Japanese statement, just made public, is couched in strong language. It says, while It is not Japan's duty to defend China in this case, yet, so far as the good faith and loyalty of Japan la called Into question, the authorities of the country feel bound to repl the charges. These arc taken up seriatim, beginning with the Rycshitelni Inci dent, which the verbal note declared waa nothing more than the adoption by Japan of Just and inevitable meas ures of self-defense made necessary by Russia's violation of the neutrality of China. The charges that Chinese brigands mere commanded by Japanese officers aad enrolled in their army, and that Japanese, military instructors wero with the' Chinese soldiers on the bor der, la declared to be without any foundation whatever, and Russia is challenged to produce any evidence In support of this charge. It Is denied that Japan has used the Miatao Islands as a naval base, hut tt Is declared that Russia has so used the Islands aud that a Japanese mer ekaatman was sunk In the Island waters last March by a Russian man-of-war. The Japanese admit they have pro cured war supplies from Chefoo. but Insist that these came through private partlea and that the transactions were legitimate, while Russia It Is alleged, kas fitted out and loaded a ship In Chinese wuters in flagrant violation of Chinese neutrality. It Is denied that pig Iron was sup plied to the Japanese army by the Chinese government shops at Hang yang and this Ij also said to have been a legitimate transaction between Indi viduals. Respecting the charge that China Is rcriously preparing to engage In the war. the note says: lt Is difficult to Imagine how It would be possible to frame charges more mlschevious or more remote from actual facts than these. That the CM une are making vreparatlons of this kind is entirely destitute of truth and there Is no anti-foreign movement In Chhta. From the beginning Japan has urged China to maintain neutrality and protect foreigners. It Is abundant ly clear that the motive of the Rus sian government In formulating base Jess accusations was to relieve them selves of an engagement, terms of which, with the progress of the war. on longer inured mainly to their ad vantage." The note is supported by a detailed statement under eight heads. Intended to show wherein Russia, on her part, has violated Chine neutrality. "Briefly atated. these Incidents are connected with the alleged appropriation by Russia of Manchuria n military stores and pro visions, the charter of the German mer chant steamer Fooplng. at Chefoo, to carry Russian arms; the dispatch of 3.6i.(O0 small-arm cartridges from Kalgan to Port Arthur, the establishment of wireless telegraph communications be tween Port Arthur and Chefoo: the delay f the Russian gunboat Mandjur In dis arming at Shanghai; the flight of Rus sian soldiers and sailors from the Rycstttteln! when they were reported to be Interned; the aid extended at Chefoo to Rurslan soldiers fleeing from Port Arthur and the maintenance of a large Russian force in the region west of IJaeho in violation of the agreement to limit the theater of war.. ALL AGREE WITH HAY. , Great Powers Isolate Russia on Ques tion of Chinese Neutrality. BERLIN. Jan. 30. The Russian govern ment's reply to China's declaration that she has net Infringed neutrality, nor per mitted Japan to do so. la a reassertlon that she lias done so. The Russian note, which was communicated to the powers Saturday, gives specifications of what are affirmed to be violations of neutrality, but the tone of the reply is such that It Is Inferred that Rusaia la not likely to carry tke discussion much further. It Is learned here that Russia found that all the powers, particularly Germany, held views Identical with those of the United States on limiting the zone of war and keeping China out of it. GROWL FROM THE BEAR. Hay's Note Blunts Claws Aimed at China's Vitals. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 00. The No- I vostt says Secretary Hay's note on the j subject of China will be interpreted in i differeat ways. it promises the belligerents agreeable prospects. If other cabinets come to an agreement with Washington It may bap pen that neither Russia nor Japan will get tke slightest advantage from the war. Other powers are preparing to set up claims in case peace Is declared. These paera have suddenly conceived a desire to preserve China's integrity and neu trality under any circumstances. Their solicitude comes a little late." RUSSIAN ACTIVITY CEASES. Attempt to Turn Japanese Left Seems ' to Be Abandoned. TOKIO. Jan. .90. (1:30 A. M.) Russian I activity on the Shakbe River seemed to j kave ceased- after the fights at Chenchl i ekpao and Helkoutai. where the Japa j aeae were victorious. The object of the I operations Is sot clearly understood here. but It Is suggested that the Russians ! either lateaded to turn the Japanese left aad move a heavy force down west of the U4U jinn, ui ric srcJuiiK iu Ul vert a tt ration from some projected operation agalast the Japanese right. It is reported that the weather Is warmer since January 2. but It is still extremely cold, so that it Is impossible to expose the troops at night. The Teklo press expresses the opinion that General Kuropatkln either ordered the movement to divert attention from the domestic conditions In' Russia, or that he had planned to make a fight before Field Marshal Oyama had been heavily reinforced. Maneburiaa army headquarters tele graphing yesterday says: "There has been so great change In the direction of the right and center armies since the night of January 2S. except constant collisions between reconnolterisg parties. In the direction of the left army the eacmy keeps up a slow but constant can nonade. The array's aisin body at Chenchl eh- pao and Heikontal seems- to have re treated in the direction, of Keinyupae; which is two miles west of Chaagtaa and' SubfangtaL At & point ten miles north west of Changtan the enemy left many dead." The details of the fighting at Chenchl chpao and Heikontal have net yet been reported. ' RUSSIAN PLAN IS FOILED. Aim Was to Take Sandepas and Then Outflank Japanese. RUSSIAN HEATQUARTERS. Huan Mountain. Sunday, Jan. 29. Delayed In transmission.) The object of General Kuropatkln's latest offensive movement waa to capture the Important position at Sandcpas, on the left bank of the Hun River, and thereby outflank the Japanese from the Shakhe River, and enable the Russian army to undertake a general advance. At Sandepas the Japanese oc cupied a strongly fortified position com manding the triangle formed by the con fluence of the Hun snd Shakhe Rivers. The Japanese had erected a fort cf a permanent type, with triple earthworks and trenches extending In a southwest erly direction. Several villages to the northeast were also fortified strongly. The positions were held by 12 battalions of Japanese, partly drawn from General NogTs army and partly reserves. The Russians carried the first line of en trenchments, but were unable to main tain tnclr position on the outskirts of Sandepas, In the face of fierce cannonad ing. The fighting was transferred westward. The Japanese center attacked with a bri gade of Infantry, endeavoring to envelop the Russians, but the cavalry protecting the Russian flank drove back the Japan ese with heavy loss. Ar counter 'attack on the villages cajrtu'red by the Russians at the outseXoMhe fight was also beaten off. but at the cost to the Russians of severarMkousand killed or wounded. In cluding General Mlstchenko, who was wounded In the knee. The heaviest suf ferers were the newly arrived brigade of riflemen. The official report of the fighting at Houlltadzy and Hugounda. January 25 and January 26. says there were 43 offi cers and 1(50 men killed and wounded. A hundred Japanese prisoners have ar rived here. They belonged to the Ninth Division before Port Arthur, The wounded are suffering from the cold, which Is Increasing. DRIVEN ACROSS RIVER. Japanese Movement on Pokowtai Re pulses Russians With Heavy Loss. GENERAL OKU'S HEADQUARTERS. Jan. 29 (Noon, via Fusan. delayed. Yes terday (Saturday) afternoon the Japanese began a fierce bombardment with artillery and muaketry along the whole line. The fighting was kept up until midnight and was resumed at dawn today, continuing until noon. The Russian reply waa feeble. A movement of the Japanese left wing for tho purpose of surrounding' and cut ting off the Russians la the neighborhood of Pokowtai Is progressing slowly, as the resistance is stubborn. Should the Russian force be cut off It will result in leaving General Kuropat kln's right flank unprotected. GENERAL OKU'S HEADQUARTERS. Jon. 29 (7 P. Mv. via Fusan. delayed In transmission.) Two divisions of Japanese troops attacked Pokowakl and drove four divisions of the Russians across the Hun River. Six hundred Russians were cap tured. The Russians are making a stand across the river. One Russian division made several at tacks on Santanpu. to the cast, but was driven back with a loss of over 4000. The Japanese bombarded the entire Rus sian line. The Russians replied feebly, showing little activity. PASSEE OF BAI CHECKS. ' Philip Mclntyre Captured in New York After Career on Pacific Coast.
