WILL INVOLVE OTHER POWERS.
War Cannot Be Limited to Russia and
Ja0an

New York, Jan. l8.-Cabling from
st. Petersburg the correspondent OF
the Herald quotes an unnamed proml-
nent diplomat az saying:
Let all those who are adding fuel
TO the fire which means war remem-
Der that no possible power can limit
that war TO Japan and Russia. Its ex-
tension 10 other countries is sure, with
results too terrible TO consider.
In the long corridor of the foreign
1ifice, where officials are wont to walk
about arm in arm. there were signs of
much animation after the receipt OF
Japan's reply. There was much loud
talk ana general air of i'll suppressed
excitement, the same which prevailed
in many other influential quarters.
Also the general opinion appears to
be that matters political have reached
highly critical point. Russia is un-
doubtedly anxious TO do all possible.
but there is a unanimous feeling that
she cannot accept any proposition
from Japan which is damagin to her
armour propre. The situation may, In
fact, be summed up - follows;
Japan is dissatisfied with the Rus
sian note and returns 10 for amend
ment. According TO the declaration OF
a high official of the foreign office
when the last Russian reply was sent
to Japan Russia had conceded all she
possibly can and while willing to grant
small concessions TO Japan in Korea
she refuses 10 discuss the question Of
Manchlria.
Japan insists In pushing the Man
churian open door as a sine qua non
and with equal insistence urging that
she should have assurances OF the in
tegrity of Korea and China, TO which
Russias consent is impossible.
Russia will reply in a similar tone
and will lay her reasons before the
powers justifying her attitude.

ARGUMENT IN sMooT CASE.
Attorneys for Both Sides Appear Be-
fore Committee.

Washington, Jan. l8.-The senate
committee on privileges and elections
met during the day TO hear the attor-
neys on both sides OF the case involv-
ing the right Of Senator Smoot of
Utah to occupy his seat Former Rep
resentative Taylor of Ohio was heard
for some of the protestants and T. +.
Stephenson for those who are repre-
senting the National Reform associa-
tion.
A. S. Worthington and Waldemar
Van Cott were present on behalf of
Senator Smoot, who also was in at
tendance. The first presentation was
made by Mr.. Taylor. who spoke at
length on the various points at issue.
At the conclusion OF Mr. Taylor's
argument Mr. Worthington addressed
the committee in behalf Of Mr.. Smoot.
He was followed by Mr.. Van Cott,
who also spoke in Senator Smoot's be-
half.
The public hearing continued about
two hours and at its conclusion the
committee went into executive ses-
sion.
The committee decided to receive
from the attorneys for Mr.. Smoot a
written reply to Mr.. Taylor's argu-
ment. From conversation ensuing in
the executive session 1t was made
plain that the committee will prosecute
thorough inquiry into the charges
against Mr.. Smoot.

NEITHER DESIRES WAR.
Russia and Japan May Yet Reach an
Understanding.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 1S.-"The news
which reaches the legation is OF a
thoroughly reassuring character" said
the secretary of the Japanese legation
In an interview published by the
Bourse Gazette.
Neither Russia nor Japan desires
war added the secretary. The cen
trail point of the difficulty is Korea
on which, however, ii is quite possible
that an understanding will be reached
at no distant date. Japan does not
claim a protectorate over Korea. She
only demands the right of free trade
In Korea and Manchuria. japanese
trade with Manchuria could be estaD-
lished in such manner as TO give
Russia equivalent advantages Tor any
loss OF the opening OF the Mancnurian
markets. Russia could be further safe
guarded by Russo-Japanese CONNER
cial treaty"
The secretary declared that the lega
ton had no information on the sub
1ect OF the report that the London anu
Paris cabinets intended to offer their
good Offices, adding
This course, however, seems super
fiuous at the present moment. as the
state OF diplomatic negotiations makes
II permissible to hope for favorable
issue"

Seoul, Korea. Jan. 1S.-The Ameri-
can guard at the United States en-
bassy has been increased. Sixty addi-
tional marines have arrived here and
are quartered in the city at the Elec-
trio Power company building.
The native press is slightly offensive
to foreign residents and it is quite
possible there will yet be trouble with
Korea. Troops now guard all the for
eign residences, probably in sufficient
numbers to keep the natives in check

FRENCH OFFICIAL SENTIMENT
LESS BuOYANT OVER FAR
EASTERN SITUATION.
Japan EMLARGES on HER DEMANDS
THOSE IN LAST NOTE GO CONSiD
ERAHLY BEYOND THE ONES
FIRST PRESENTED.

Paris. Jan 1S-Official sentiment
concerning the Russo-Japanese situa
tion is rather less buoyant. 1t was eX
planned that while the conditions are
not hopeless they undoubtedly are
discouraging Although no informa
tion is given as to the grounds for the
present feeling il probably is due tc
the receipt of fuller information re
garding the nature OF Japan's latest
demands.
One of the foremost members OF the
diplomatic corps, who has been In
close communication with the French
government relative to the Russo-Jap
aIese situation, said during the day
that a strong feeling existed in the
highest official quarters that Japan
had gradually enlarged her demands
until those OF today went considerably
beyond those first presented.
Moreover. it is the belief OF the ON
cials here that Japan's steady aug
mentation of her demands is due
largely TO her belief that Russia Is
desirous of avoiding war and that
therefore, it is safe TO push her de-
mands to the furthest limits.

BIG Losses Due to Closing of Chicago
Amusement Halls.

Chicago, Jan. 1S.-One-third of the
State street trade. according to one
estimate. has been cut off by the clos
ing of places OF amusement and local
traction companies note marked
falling off in amount OF traffic due TO
the same cause.
A man interested in the Union Trac-
tion company said during the day that
the receipts had fallen off 1000 a
night since the closing order went into
effect. Members of the Union Loop
company estimated that the elevated
roads had suffered an average daily
loss in passengers of between 1900
and 900, while the late suburban
trains on the different railroads have
been leaving the city with less than
half the passengers they usually carry
when the theaters are open.

CRISIS SOME DISTANCE OFF.
Recourse of Diplomacy Not Vet Ex-

Washington. Jan. 1S.-Such reports
rs the state department has received
through it's various agencies in Europe
and the East are summed up in the
single expression that the reconrseS
of diplomacy have not yet been ex-
ed in the Far Eastern situation.
Ii is expected that Russia VIII delay
several days at least before making
answer to the last Japanese note ana
II is said at the state department thal
this note contains no time limit, but
simply hints that an early answer Will
be acceptable.
The note is far from being an ulti-
nahum and the officials do not expect
ANYTHING in the nature OF crisis in
the near future.
Mr.. Takahira, the Japanese minis
ter, had long conference with Sec,
retary Hay during the day, but he had
no news himself Of anything that had
happened in the East since the deliV-
cry OF the last Japanese note.
