OF the highest Americanism, and consid-
cred there was no servility in acknowl-

Americans had come among them to

he was allowed to resume his command

LONDON PRESS COMMENT.
The Saturday Review, discussing Amer1-
can affairs, will say tomorrow:
They who fancy we are going to get
anything in Alaska in return for fur
ther concessions in Nicaragua must be
willing dupes. Our government has the
game in it's own hands. If 1t chooses to
take the European powers who have
every claim to be consulted into their
confidence, American statesmen are well
aware, with differences thickening
around them, that they dare not defy this
country, much less Europe. Russia is

Unless EngIand's Counter Proposals
Are Agreed to, the British Govern
aent VIII Not Acquiese in
Senate Amendments.

LONDON, Feb PIN spite of the great
secrecy with which, as is usual, the de-
alterations of the cabinet are guarded,
the Associated Press is able to assert
that one of the subjects under discussion
at today's meeting was a dispatch from
Lord Pauncefote, which, it is understood,
dealt with the probable attitude of the
United States towards Great Brlta!n's
counter proposals in the Nicaragua mat
ter.
Inquiries in official quarters as to
whether the Nicaragua or China Dues
tins were even mentioned meet with the
inevitable non-committal answer that all
the proceedings of the cabinet are car
ried on with the strictest privacy, and
that it is impossible to admit the truth
or falsity of supposititions regarding
even the general nature of affairs dis
cussed.
AS the official action resulting from to-
days meeting has not yet had time to
take definite shape, it is impossible to
say what conclusions were reached.
TO CONFER WITH CRoATE.
United States Ambassador Choate will
probably be summoned to the foreign
Office next Monday, when Lord Lans-
downe is likely to communicate to him
the British views regarding the Nicara-
qua and China controversies. No eXpec-
tation need be entertained that this inter
view will settle one way or the other the
Nicaraguan canal difficulty.
Great Britain has no intention Of ratf-
flying the Hay-Pauncefote treaty in the
form desired by the senate unless her
counter proposals are agreed to within
the short time which remains before that
treaty lapses, and this is recognized to.

RUSSIAN SUGAR POLICY

In compliance with law the minister
annually fixes the amount of sugar to
be produced and disposed of on the do
every year as the consumption increases.
The minister also fixes the maximum 10
1nestic price, which diminishes every
year. There is no truth in the state
ment that the establishment of high
prices is contemplated by the Russian
policy. The price has fallen within the
years from to 51A roubes. If the
manufacturers wish to manufacture
more sugar for export the government
will not interfere.

cause domestic prices are higher in
Russia than elsewhere rlroducGrs are

ducers could not sell advantageously at
the present export prices if they were
