Tile staffs of business finns havo been depleted and in many oflboa tho work is being carried on chiefly by young, Danes and other European neutrals. ?Before tho Russo-Japanese. war there wore few settlers in this part of Msnchuria nnd Siberia. Since that time tho Hussion .government has of fered very favorable term's -to pros pective landowners and at groat cost bas located many peasant farmers In ?.'iberia, soar tho Manchurian, border.

At one station, ea?t'of Harbin, the correspondent of- Tho Associated Press saw an open air mass held for 300 men who wore'about to cntor a troop train. Tho men w-^ro closely ;groupcd about the priest, >wlth the long beard and hair, common to t'.'.o clergy of tho Hussion church.
