Memorandum from Alvey A. Adee
Assistant Secretary of State Adee summarizes a visit from the Chinese Minister Cheng Liang. Liang had received a telegram from his government, asserting that the treaty to be ratified October 8 is to include an agreement that China can open two ports in Manchuria. Adee notes that this agreement has been affirmed and will be part of the treaty, without reference to any questions between China and Russia. Adee and Liang also discussed the upcoming sedition trial at Shanghai of Chinese dissidents, noting that the United States government would not interfere but would expect the agreed-upon judicial proceeding to vindicate the law.

Letter from Alvey A. Adee to Cheng Liang
The State Department has determined that the six Chinese charged with sedition and arrested in the foreign settlement at Shanghai do not fall under article 18 of the treaty of 1858. The department is therefore not competent to authorize or concur in the individuals’ surrender or to interfere in the judicial procedure or imposition of sentences. This case will not set a precedent for sheltering treasonous Chinese citizens in the Shanghai foreign settlement.
