(PER PRESS ASSOCIATION.)
London, March 18.
The guards at Kinder's siding have been reduced to 27 each side during negotiations for the adjustment of the difficulty.
Owing to Fronch soldiers creating continuous rowdyism they havo boon forbidden to enter the British concession at Tientsin unless on duty, Mocldcr, a British divisional officer, was assaulted in the Fronch concession yesterday. Dr Morrison on Saturday stated that the Manchurian Convention meant installing Eussia in Chinese Turkestan and turns the whole position which Britain had toiled to render impregnable on the north-western frontier of India.
On Sunday Dr Morrison cabled that according to the Chinese officials Eussia abandons her claim to exclusive rights in Mongolia and Turkestan and relaxes the stringency of control over the civil administration in Manchuria. This constitutes the first check to Russian diplomacy since Lord Salisbury withdrew tho BrLish ships from Pore Arthur in 1898.
