LONDON.- May S. Despite all prom
ipjea which she made to the Powers re
cently. Russia has again taken the ag
greasife in 'China and has deliberately
flouted the most powerful nations on the
earth. ' ,
A dispatch received today by Reuter's
Agency from its Pekln correspondent
says that the latest move of Russia In
the Orient is Interpreted-at the Chlneae
capital as meaning nothing less than a
courting of war.
New Chwang. a treaty port at the
mouth of the Lluo, haa been reoccupied
by a large force of the Cxur"s troopa.
and all the forta have been regarrlsoned.
Tchangyn, Chinese Ambaasador here.
when; shown the, dispatch, says if it is
true "it is evident that a coup d'etat has
bert stjjrcessfully accomplished, thattias
for Its ultimate object the complete llua
Slanlslng of all of Mnnchuria.
"This, comes the nearest to roreBnaa-
owfng war in the Far East than any
now' -we nave yet receivea, was wir
comment of the Oriental, who appeared
greatly agitated at the information.
It, is believed here tnat tne laie pro-
testallonS of Russlo that she really had
no designs on the Orient that would con-
fllct with the Interests of other nations,
particularly the United Statea. waa made
for the aole purpose of gaining time, that
the C.zar'8 Mlnlatera might put through
the game that now appears to have been
worked so adroitly.
England, Japan and the United States
will be greatly effected by this action on
the part of Russia, and it is believed In
English- official circles that the United
Statea will Join the other two Powers
mentioned In an energetic effort to block
thegame of the Czar. " ,
It Is not believed that France would
stand with Russia In a campaign of- ag
gression when this would undoubtedly
be followed by war with two of the other
greatest Powers of the world and prob-.
ably another Important, thoughMeaa re

night. Only one month previously .Mrs.

tatlon to her sister in a distant city to
come and pay her a visit. Mrs. Wick
ham was so anxious to see her sister.
from whom she had been separated for
several months, that she forwarded cash
for transportation. In a few days Miss
Mallin arrived, and began at once to
enjoy the love and hospitality Of her
sister's home. , ' ' " .
Every desire of Miss Mailing heart
was gratified by ber sister, who lavish
ed upon her everything money could pur
chase in the way of luxuries and pleas
ures, such as drives about town, seats
for the passing shows, together with the.
affection of a loving relative.

So devoted wss Mrs. Wickham to her
husband, and so fond was she of her
pretty sister, that. She failed to notice
the attentions paid MISs Mallin by the
head of the house. Beautiful Miss Mal
lin was but 30 years of aga, whUs her
sister had reached the half-eentury mile
post.
Wickham was younger than his wife
by ten years, and by nature loved an ad
venturesome existence. Though quite
well along In life, still he was fond of
romance, and often while tils gray-haired
and faithful wife was tolling Inside the
house, the husband would stroll about
through the garden and the grove mak
ing love to the fair woman at Ills side
his wife's sister. '
Miss Mallin, It seems, was not slow
to admire, and at last to love her sister's
husband, and when ho vowed that he
loved her more than his wife, and asked
her to flee with him. she consented.
The dreadful truth of the situation
did not dawn upon the forsaken wife un
til two days after her faithless husband
and ungrateful alater fled from Eugene.
They left the house ostensibly to takl
a short stroll, but failed to return. The
anxious wife and sister remained up all
night, vainly striving to construe their
absence Into some feasible form. The
morning dawned, but still no trace f
the missing ones. The Eugene police
were called upon that day and, IramedK

appeared at police headquarters, where
she poured out her sad tale Into the
ears of Captain of Detectives Simmons.
"I will pros ecu Ue them to the full

clared. "Think of the Injustice done met
