NATIONAL ART GALLERY.
Move to Be Made to Establish One
at Washington.


Washington, July l4.-The Post says
that the Harriet Lane Johnston bequest
OF pictures and other art objects will
not be accepted by the Corcoran art
gallery but it may form part of a
national gallery of art. Regarding the
proposed national gallery the Post says
that the board of trustees of the Corcor-
an art gallery and other patrons and
lovers OF art in this city, Boston, New
York and other centers have planned to
go before congress at its next session
and ask for an appropriation for the es-
tablishment of national gallery of art.
The bill, according to the Post, will be
introduced in the house by a member
from New York, who will himself give
for the maintenance of the gallery a
sum in excess of 81 100000.
The Post also says that within the
past week j. P. Morgan has held sever
al conferences with prominent citizen
of Washington and an officer of the
Corcoran gallery looking to the transfer
of his entire collection of pictures and
other works of art to the proposed ma
tional gallery.
Mr.. Morgan made no stipulation
save that the national gallery should
be located in Washington, and it is
said he desires TO contribute the money
necessary to build one wing to be known
by his pane.

RUSSIANS BITTER
RELIED ON OUR TRADITIoN.
FRIENDSHIP.
Supposed 1t Would Secure Ar
al of the Manchurian Propr.u
War Talk Rife Among Lor
Russian Officers--Higber n
Deprecate 1t.

Port Arthur, July l3, via Che Foo
The visit of all the prominent Rus0;.-
officials in China, Manchuria and Re-.
to this place is strictly business ~. =
and in no way iunket. The local o@ '
Gals had arranged an elaborate rrn
gram covering the week for the en to-.
tainment of the visitors, but after ,
review of $4,000 troops on the rooa
track General Kuropatkin, the Ruso;aS
minister of war, announced that the -
mainder of the visit must be devoted -
work. General Kuropatkin presided
daily over long conferences, which a,o
still in session. When questioned 70,
garding the purpose of the meeting tbo
officials present explained that KurO.
patkin desired to obtain the fullest in.
fomation concerning Russia's interast.
and work in the far East, and naturaIlv
requested the officials to meet him
since it was impossible that he sbonld
visit all of them.
1t is intimated that one important
question to be discussed is the matte,
of the consolidation of Russia's ada.
cent possessions in the far East under
one administration, with a governor
general directing the whole.
Deprecate War Talk.
High officials strongly deprecate war
talk, which is rife among officers Of
lower rank and civilians. All who talk
of war profess to despise Japan as an
antagonist.
The policy of the United States gov.
eminent on the Manchurian question
is generally regarded here with surprise
and resentment, com nents being made
to the effect that the Russians expected
Great Britain to antagonize their prog.
ress but relied upon the traditional
friendship of America to secure Ameri.
can approval.
Admiral Aliexeff, who hitherto has
received visiting correspondents with
marked cordially, replied through his
secretary to an American who sought
an interview with him that, consider.
ing the recent hostility of the Amer.
can and British press toward Russia, he
could see no reason why he should
grant favors to their correspondents.
Large Fleet and Many Troops.
The presence of British squadron at
Wei-HaiWei and Of American war.
ships at Che Foo is subject of great
interest to the Russian officers, who are
asking many questions regarding the
missions of the British and American
war vessels. At Port Arthur there are
twelve Russian battleships and cruisers,
four of which are regularly stationed
there, and at Vladivostock there are
forty-fve smaller craft, most of them
torpedo boats or torpedo boat destoyers.
The number of troops at Port Arthur
and its environs is, according to thu
best information. 80, 900, and the iail-
way company is preparing to bring 49,
900 more. The feet and army are dis
playing the most unusual activity In
the drilling of the men.

useless to annoy Rim, and that he con-

and no one about the Vatican seems to
have the power to drive him from the
