Russo-Japansee War Talk.

The object of a visit to this portion of
Japan at the present time is to try and
catch the beatings of the public pulse on
the subject of the probability of war,
Runors of what people thought was about
to happen were so very conflicting in
Corea and Manchuria that but little real
satisfaction could be gained by repeated
Interviewing Here was the place for news
but instead of finding those having the
ability to form well-digested opinions and
the willingness to express them, 1t Is al
most impossible to get them to talk.
The differences of opinion between the
two factions are so very bitter that silence
seems the golden mean that must be Guilt
waited. If one starts war topics the fore
finger of the party addressed almost at
once goes to his lips. to signify that the
taboo has been placed on that subject.
Surprise was, without doubt caused here
by Russia's action in presenting new set
of demands in Peking while the Manchu-
rian question was under discussion be-
tween ST. Petersburg and the representa-
tives from Toxic, although it is quite in
the running that these discussions could
scarcely be said to have entered a serious
phase The japanese have not been idling
their time, but it is thought highly possible
that they have not been very Melcome to
TIE Russian statesmen. But as the Japa-
nese demands had been formulated and
were really quite generally known 1T was
thought to be a very unusual proceeding
on Russia's part to approach China with
out making some statement regarding
Japan.
It is thought by the more warlike faction
that this country has now the desired
leverage and can approach the Russian
bear with a more inslstent mien. The
delegating of such absolute authority as
the Russian government has placed in the
hands of Viceroy Alexieff bothers them
here a great deal, and it is attributed
largely to the viceroy's policy that the
last budget of demands was opened at
Picking. 1t Is, 1 presume, very natural
that this country should by its own coun-
trymen be considered as having been re-
markedly patient. but l fancy that would
hardly be the verdict of a congress Of
nations.
All are looking forward with expec-
fancy to the mission of Baron Rosen to
Fort Arthur, where he will meet the vice.
roy and be able to tell him exactly how
Japan feels and what are the bounds of
her endurance The result of this all
important interview. which by some is
held to contain the decision as to peace or
war, will probably reach you by cable
about as quickly as the news can be sent
here
