United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.)
RIGA, April 24
Moscow reports an increasing acuteness in the situation over the Russia— Manchuria n frontier dispute. M. Karakhans in a note on April 18, stated that the Japanese continue to make raids on the Chinese Eastern Railway. The dispute ostensibly centres on the ownership of 124 locomotives and a quantity of rolling stock, which, the Manchurians: claim, belong to them, but which have been detained by Russia.
The Soviet, officially, states that the Japanese have recently indulged in shooting on the frontier, and that they also have captured locomotives and rolling stock that were proceeding to Yladjvstock.
Manchuria now threatens to cut the railway unless the Soviet immediately returns the disputed rolling stock.
