CHAP. iv.] RUSSIAN ACTIVITY. 79
Such action in itself is no threat to our rights
and interests. On the contrary, by opening up
the country and by enriching the inhabitants,
these measures will make Manchuria all the
better a market for our goods.
But Russia goes further than this. She tells
us that Manchuria is to be within the sphere of
Russian. influence.* She objects to our asking
China to open a second Treaty Port (Tauen-
wan), though she sees no objection to bullying
China into handing her over two ports, both of
which she proceeds to fortify, and one of which
she absolutely closes to trade. She attempts
to negotiate a loan with China, but when China
tries to negotiate one with us, she so threatens
her, that Chinese officials come piteously to us t
saying that they are so afraid of Russia they
cannot do business with us. She obtains
exclusive rights of railway construction in
North Manchuria, but she vigorously protests I
against the employment by a Chinese railway
company in the South of an English engineer
(Kinder) who had been with that same company
