Is Very Complicated.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. II. - The
car today received a telegram from
Viceroy Alexieff describing the damage
done to the Russian warships during
the bombardment by the japanese fleet
at Port Arthur. 1t says:
The Czarevitch and PaIlada were
brought into the harbor Tuesday. The
Retvizan is making temporary repairs
to a hole. Repairs to the baftleship are
SO complicated that it is difficult to saw
when the ships will be ready The Pal
lada and Novik will be locked in turn
and expect them to be ready in a fort
night. All the other vessels injured in
the tight are now repairing and coaling
In the harbor. 1 expect them to be
ready in three days.
The wounded officers, Lieut.. Col.
Zalontschkovsky, Of the artillery corps.
ana Lieut.. Petrol, are doing well. -Four
OF the wounded have died. A majority
OF the injured belonged to the cruiser
PalIada, and their injuries are due to
gases from the explosion of a MeIinite
torpedo. A careful search by cruisers
ana torpedo boats day and night has
not revealed the presence of the en-
emy."

Russia can't Come to St. louis.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 1.-THE
question of abandoning Russian par
ucipation in the ST. Louis exposition
is under consideration. The merchants
OF Moscow today notified Commission
er General Alexandrovsky that they
would devote the money intended for
the exposition to the Red Cross soci-
ETY. and to assisting the war orphans
and widows. They intend contributing
100000. If it is decided to abandon
the Russian exhibit the government
will follow the example of the Moscow
merchants. The largest firms here,
who intended to exhibit, have stopped
preparations to that end on the under
standing that there will be no Rus-
sian participation.

BALTIC SQUADRON
ON A LONG VOYAGE
1t Enters Kaiser Wilhelm Canal on
Russian AdmiraI's Orders.

LONDON, Feb. I'm a dispatch
from Copenhagen, a correspondent of
the Mail says:
'The Russian Baltic squadron OF fif-
teen warships passed through Danish
waters today en- rotue for the far East
around Cape Skagen, Jutland, but as
fierce storm was raging in the North
sea the Russian admiral ordered the
squadron through the Kaiser Wilhelm
canal"
At the Japanese legation tonight no
great Importance was attached to this
report. 1t was explained that even
were the report true, the fleet would
not reach the scene of operations I'M
der six weeks, by which time the sit
uatfon might have changed materially.
In any case, it was said, the japanese
navy would be quite ready to meet the
ships.
1t was also pointed out at the lega-
ton that since Great Britain has de-
clared her neutrality, and as most of
the coaling ports east of SueZ are
British, the Russian men-of-war will
experience great difficulties in coaling
or be hindered by the necessity Of hav-
ing Golfers accompany them.

TOO MUCH LALLY ON JuRIEs.


Judge Simpson Excuses Citizen Because
He Had Served So often.
Judge Simpson does not favor the old
time custom Of having professional ju-
rors, and yesterday excused John Lally,
who served six weeks last November and
December, and was drawn again to serve
during the January term. He served the
first two weeks term and was then ask
ed to remain for another two weeks.
Lally was becoming so conspicuous
around the court rooms and was called
so often that when he answered to his
name YESTERDAY Judge. Simpson began a
series Of questions before the attorneys
had an opportunity to examine him
In reply to questions by the court, Lally
said that he had been on the jury last
November, and that he was subpoenaed
again for the January term, and then re-
tanned after having served two weeks.
Judge Simpson said that the law pro-
vided that new jurors should be drawn
every two weeks in order that litigants
might have new jurors from the body of
the citizens of the county and not any
particular man. In his court the Judge
said he would try to select jurors as pro-
vided by law, and John Lally was ex-
cuSed from service.

international Law Not Violated.

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,. Feb 11.-Prof.
Theodore S. Woolsey, of the Yale law
school, an authority on international
law, today gave it as his opinion that
in breaking off diplomatic relations the
japanese government gave perfectly
fair warning to Russia that war was at
hand.
"a declaration of war nowadays is
unnecessary" said Prof. Woolsey.
WAR dates from the first moment of
conflict so far as the belligerents are
concerned. Neutralities date from the
official announcements Of the govern
ment that war has been begun. There
is nothing treacherous or improper in
the Japanese torpedo attack upon the
Russian ships at Port Arthur"

Copyright, 1904, New York -Herald)
BERLIN, Thursday learn from a
trustworthy source that China has ask
ed the United States to obtain an in
ternational pledge as to the integrity Of
China. According to information fur
nished at the Chinese legation here,
this is because China itself was unable
to guarantee the permanence of her
neutrality during the war. My author
fly at the legation says the position of
the Chinese government is this China
is prepared to maintain strict neutral
ity for the time being, but how long
such an attitude is possible will depend
on events. 1t must be remembered that
not only is war being fought about
Manchuria, Chinese territory, but fight
ing is certain on Chinese soil. If the
Chinese population become excited an
uprising may be unavoidable. Further,
it may be neither possible nor desirable
for China to remain passive. 1t has
10000 well equipped troops at Pechili,
close to the Manchurian frontier, ready
for any emergency.
England May Seize Baltic.
Count Tombe, the Swedish minister
here, had several conferences with
Baron Won Richtofen. I understand the
Swedes fear Anglo Russian complica-
tons and foresee the possibility Of Eng
land Selling the Baltic and the island
of Gosland as a coaling base, which the
SWedes would surrender after a show
OF resistance. Then Russia would declare
that Sweden had violated neutrality.
King Oscar may postpone his projected
trip to Abbazia, and a mobilization OF
the Swedish army is not impossible.
