YASIILN:T0X, Sept. l.-The ques

are ditferences among the oiHoials Iu

is.ifor'the President to decide. The

a i-onti agency tout-heI upon iu the re

"The result of these considerations
is that unless there is such general ex

views expressetl by the Government
of liussia aud lead to a general agree
meut for the continued occupation, we
shall give Instruct ions to the command

General Chaffee was made acquaint

self iu readiness to withdraw his
troops. -Undoubtedly lie has confer
