WITHDRAWAL CAUSES UNEASINESS. QUESTION OF SAKHALIN. Australian and N.Z Cable Association. LONDON, June 28. Reports from Vladivostok indicate widespread uneasiness following the formal announcement of tho Japanese evacuation. Many Russians are disposing of their property at any prico before the “Red” occupation of the coast takes place. It is understood that the Japanese Minister in Poland is empowered to negotiate with Moscow regarding Sakhalin, which is being held, pending the settlement of tho Nikolaievsk massacre question. Three tentative proposals aro being discussed: First, that as an indemnity, Russia shall cede Northern Sakhalin to Japan ; second, that Japan shall be given a lease for a fixed period as indemnity; and third, that Russia shall recognise Japan’s already acquired rights in Northern Sakhalin as indemnity.
