i RUSSOJAPAN RELATIONS. » THE FORCES AT PEKIN. A CHINESE PROTEST. Received June 11, 10 a.m. Hongkong, June 10. Pekin embassies have collectively summoned the Empress to suppress the rebellion, otherwise the Powers will act. An Imperial edict just issued describes the Boxers as honest, but slightly misguided patriots. The Shanghai press urges that 1000 British troop 3be sent northwards from 'Hong Kong, the men being replaced by a draft from India. Owing to the encroachment of Russia on the Korean coast towards Japan, the relations between Japan and Russia are further strained. The Tsung Li Yamen, or Chinese Board of Foreign Affairs, has protested against the presence of such large foreign forces at Pekin, stating they are equivalent to a European garrison.
