RUSSIA IS DISTURBED
BY FISHER'S ATTITUDE
St. Petersburg, MacclL SI. The
Russian government Is disturbed by
tho attitude assumed by Fred D.
Fisher, American consul at llarbln,
in tho matter of recognising the ju
risdiction of Russia In Manchuria.
Planer Insists that Chinese sover
eignty In Manchuria is supreme, and
he has supported the protests of Chi
na against the establishment by Rus
sia of municipalities In the railroad
lone at llarbln and Challar. . Ills
attitude in this Hussn-Chlnese diffi
culty has prompted Ruusia lo seek
an explanation of his course, both
at the American embassy here and lit
Washington.
The foreign office hero has ex
pressed the belief that It would be
decidedly to tho tho Interost of the
United States to recognlie Russia's
administration of Mnnchurla, Inas
much as the foreign residents share
In the privilege of this administra
tion. v
