Tien-tsin Dispute.
Paris, March 19.-"Russia will not
recede from the position she has taken
in the matter of the railroad siding at

This statement is made by high Of

this official says;
Russia will not advance and will
act slowly; but, having taken up the
position she now occupies, she will
only be removed therefrom by force.
England has been unsuccessful in her
effort to secure the aid of other powers
and attack Russia's position regarding
Manchuria. She therefore is not likely
to begin hostilities unsupported in the
present instance. 1t is hardly possible
that England will go to war over a

Our great fear at first was that we

our customs, which we honor, would be

because the good governor you sent to

Some British Papers Declare That
the Difficulty Is at an End.
London, March 19.--Some of the aft
ernoon newspapers say the Tien-tsin
difficulty has been arranged. Accord
ing to this, the misunderstanding was
due to the Chinese granting the same
concession to two nations.
The arrangement, it is said, enables
Great Britain to proceed with the con
struction of the railroad siding. but if
Russia's concession proves to be ear
lier than that Of Great Britain the lat
ter is to acknowledge the claims of
Russia.
The foreign Office, however, has no
information tending to confirm the an
nouncements of an arrangement hav-
ing been made, and the officials are
rather inclined TO doubt that such an
arrangement has been arrived at. They
say the original concession was given
up by Russia.
Lord George Hamilton, secretary foi
India, replying to a question In the
house of commons said that no dis
turbances were anticipated at flemish
and that the British sentries remained
in their previous positions, with strict
orders not to assume the aggressive
pending the settlement of the immedi-
ate cause of the difficulty by the mill
tary authorities on the spot.
Lord George Hamilton assured Sir
Ellis Ashmead-Bartlett that no instruc-
tions had been sent TO the British Off
GERS at Tien-tsin either by the govern
ment or by Sir Ernest Satow not to re-
sist the seizure by the Russians Of the

Hartford, March 19.-From investi-
cations made by the officers of the
Central New England railroad into the
mystery of the passenger train wreck
on Jan. near Cottage Grove, a few
miles out of this city, it appears GER
tain that the wreck was caused by the
malicious placing of heavy railroad
spikes upon the tracks. 1t is believed
to have been the work of boys.
Since the disaster a number of SINH
lar distractions have been found at
about the same point.
The accident endangered the lives of
80 passengers, and it was remarkable
stroke of good fortune that no one was
killed. Four persons We're injured, and
many were bruised. The engine was
turned completely over and wrecked,
and the cars were badly smashed.
