RUSSIA AND AMERICA.
VI. deWitte's Friendly TaIk-Rus-
sia's Finances Affected by War
in TransVnnI.

st. Petersburg, Jan. u.-'In this ques-
ton Russia and America are altogether
of one mind. Indeed, throughout the
been like that"
The speaker, the Russian minister of
finance, NJ. deWitte, referred to the
United States proposal to make peace
without settling on the compensation, and
commercial treaty questions, these to be
relegated to a congress. NJ. deWitte, con-
tinued, speaking to the Associated Press
correspondent:
I'VE are faithful friends of the United
States and they are our faithful friends.
Our position is quite normal. compared
with other countries. Our maladies are
not from ourselves, but from without
and prevail in all the European
markets. They come from the war in the
Transvaal. When once this malady is
passed our affairs will be all right again.
The principal want is the lack of capital,
which is due to many causes, equally
effective also in Berlin, Paris, Vienna and
London. While many causes are operative,
as stated, the greatest is the Transvaal.
InlS Is true because nrSL England mas
had enormous expenses, which absorb
capital otherwise available for the worlds
commerce and industry; secondly, the
Transvaa1 gold is not coming to Europe.
English expenses in the Transvaal have
been much greater than those of all the
Powers in China. Our expenses have been
extravagantly oVerestimated. When the
Transvaal and Chinese questions are set
tied, the situation will be ameliorated."
The correspondents inquiry as to
whether the minister believed the Ameri-
can proposal was calculated to hasten
settlement was answered affirmat lively.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press is informed that official circles are
favorably disposed toward the United
States idea, because the Powers are at
loggerheads regarding compensation, and
a treaty of amity and commerce with
country with which they are actually at
war is inconceivable. 1t is said Russia
has actually instructed her ministers to
try to close up the peace negotiations, re-
gardless of compensation and commercial
treaty.

their power to meet the situation. Refu-

was repulsed with some loss. 1t will prob

sul who first refused to interfere but
after showing him letter which convinc-
ed him of my services he made a request

having been sent to me by the Boer COM
mander, Gen. Botha. l was not permitted
to get any of my personal effects or prop
erty."

FOUR NIGHTS ON A WRECK.
Russie's People Rescued Rt Last by
Efforts of Brave Fishermen.


Efforts of Brave Fishermen.
Faraman, Bouches du Rhone, Jan. IL
After a night of terrible suspense, all the
passengers and crew of the French steam
er Russie, from Oran, Algeria, which
stranded near here during violent storm
Monday, have been safely landed.
The lifeline connected from the shore
with the steamer parted again yesterday
afternoon and a signal last night read:
1--WE have not a scrap of food left. Con-
sternation prevails on board"
The fishermen made two more plucky
launches of their boats, but were beaten
back.
The storm ragged with renewed fury dur
ing the night and few remained along the
shore.
AT midnight two attempts to reach the
Russie were fruitless. In the early hours
of the morning torches lighted at the
bow of the Russie caused the fishermen
to make another effort, but they were
again tossed back ashore. At daybreak
the weather perceptibly moderated and at
about 6:30 a. m. the Caro- fishermen again
put to sea- Their small craft gradually
neared the Russie. Then rope was
thrown, which the hShermen caught ana
the lifeboat soon afterwards was along
side. Then another boat, manned by four
men, was launched and succ aeded in reach
ing the wrecked vessel
A few minutes later the Caro- boat left
the Russie's side with the women and one
baby The enthusiasm was delirious. The
spectators plunged into the sea. Some
dragged the lifeboat ashore and others
carried its occupants in their arms to dry
land. Most of them collapsed from
fatigue, cold and hunger. Their haggard
faces and trembling limbs told of their
awful experiences. By an oversight. all
the nourishment was kept at the light
house, two miles distant, whence the suf-
ferers had to walk assisted by their
friends.
The lifeboats then made repeated jour
neys until all were saved and sheltered
in the lighthouse.
