UNEASINESS IN SIBERIA.
JAPANESE WITHDRAWAL.
FEAR OF SOVIET VENGEANCE.
WHITES PREPARE TO FLEE By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. United Service. LONDON, June 28.
Reports from Vladivostok indicate that there is wide uneasiness following the formal announcement regarding the Japanese evacuation of Siberia. Many Russians are disposing of their property at any price before the Red occupation of the coast.
It is understood that the Japanese Minister to Poland is empowered to negotiate with Moscow regarding Sakhalin, which is being held pending settlement of the questions arising out of tho massacre of Japanese at Nikolaevsk in 1920. Three tentative proposals are being discussed— first, that as an indemnity Russia shall cede Northern Sakhalin to Japan; second, that Japan shall bo given a lease for a fixed period as an indemnity; third, that Russia shall recognise Japan's already acquired rights in Northern Sakhalin as an indemnity.
