Friendly as Possible in the Circum
stances at New Chwang.

New Chwang, April 1S.-A definic-
ton of the nature of the present rela-

new feverish energy. The great test
activity prevails. The public is more
aroused than at any time since the

The same dispatch reports that a Jap

unknown.
The first submarine boats which the
government was building at St. Peters
burg, and forty loads of ammunition
were dispatched today to the theater of

A correspondent of the Associated
Press learns that about a fortnight
ago Admiral Makaroff telegraphed the
emperor that he had searched a num-
Der of suspicious looking Chinese junks
which were lowering near the entrance
of the harbor and found them loaded
with vegetables. In the stern of one

of information strengthens the Japan
