RESTRICTION OF WAR AREA.
Russia and Japan Will Agree to seere-
tary Hays Note.

Washington, Feb. 19.-The state de-
partment has had an intimation that
the Russian reply to Secretary Hays
note relative to the naturalization OF
China will be forthcoming in. day or
two. Russians at first looked upon
this proposition as an act adverse to
their interests, but it is now stated
that they are entirely willing to &C.
cept. A condition, however, will be at
tached safeguarding the important in
terests that Rassia has acquired in
Manchuria in connection with the ST.
herian railroad and it's branches and
the considerable ports and inland
towns that have been developed at
Russian expense in connection with
the railroad project. 1t is understood
that the validity Of these interests will
be admitted by the cooperating pow
ers.
AS for Japan, while her acceptance
of Secretary Hays proposition also
was coupled with a condition, it is
admitted that this was nothing more
than a requirement that Russia be
bound equally with Japan in the OBJ
servation of neutrality and restriction
of the war area.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 19.-No official
announcement of the disaster off Che
mulpo, Korea, has yet been made here,
although the papers are printing sto-
ries of the loss of the Variag and Ko-
rietz. The st. Petersburg Gazette
asks:
What are we going to do with the
millions subscribed for the navy?" and
continues:
1--WE cannot patch up a useless gar
ment. Let us start afresh. Let the
people decide how the money is to be
spent. The ministries are too busy
to give the matter due attention"
Count Orloff Davkdoff, the philan-
thropist and close friend of the late
Gear Alexander I'LL, has given $50O,0O0
to the Red Cross society-$100,000 for
the Immediate use of the society, $780,
600 for hospital for wounded sailors

United States Marines Landed in San
,... ~ Domingo.
San Juan. P. R., Feb. ia private
message has been received from Santo
Domingo City. dated Feb. II, saying
that an American warship bombarded
the insurgents at Pajarito, near Santo
Domingo, and then landed marines.
These men, however, subsequently re-.
embarked.
Washington, Feb. 19.-No news has
been received at the state or navy de-
partments regarding the reported land
ing in San Domingo of marines.
It is the earnest wish of the admin
istration that forcible Intervention in
San Domingo may be postponed until
after the ratification of the Panama
treaty. If the outrages upon American
interests continue, however, 1t will be
necessary to put in force at once the
drastic scheme of operations that has
been agreed upon. ~
The United States, it Is emphat-
ically stated, does not want San Do
mingo as gift or as purchase and
the officials do not propose to permit
the Morales government to force an
nexation upon this country by contin-
uing a scheme of attacks upon our in
terests. 1t will not surprise the Off
Gals to know that the reported attacks
of the "revolutionists" have been in
spired by the government.

RUSSIANS MUST BE PATIENT.
Army Viii Avenge Japan's Blow to
Navy.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 19.-An official
proclamation explaining the unpre-
paredness of Russia for war and the
necessity for the exercise of patience
by her people has been issued here.
It is as follows:
Eight days have now elapsed since
all Russia was shaken with profound
Indignation against an enemy who
suddenly broke off negotiations and
by treacherOus attack endeavored
to obtain an easy success in q war
long desired. The Russian nation,
with natural Impotence, desires
prompt vengeance and awaits fever
ishly news from the Far East.
'Ths unity and strength of the Rus
sian people leave no room for doubt
that Japan will receive the chasulse-
ment she deserves for her treachery
and provocation to war at time when
our beloved sovereign desired to main
tain peace among the nations. The
conditions under which hostilities are
being carried on compel us to wait
with patience news Of the
Success of Our Troops,
which cannot occur before decisive
actions are fought by the Russian
army. The distance of the territory
and the desire of the emperor to man.
tain peace were the causes of the i'm.
possibility of more complete and
earlier preparations for war. Much
time is now necessary in order to
strike at Japan. but it is necessary for
the dignity and might of Russia that,
while sparing as much as possible the
shedding OF blood OF her children, to
infiict just chastisement upon the ma
ton which has provoked the struggle
Russia must await the event In pa,
thence, being sure that our army Will
avenge an hundredfold that provoca
ton. s.. e. Ii ... q
Operations on land must not be ex
pected for some time yet and we can
not obtain early news from the the
alter of war. The useless shedding oil
blood is unworthy the greatness and
power Of Russia !:

Revised Figures of the Loss by BaIti.

Baltimore, Feb. LIT has been
learned from an authoritative source
that the tax assessments on the realty
in the burned district were approx
mately between $20,000,000 and $22,-
100000 and that the assessments on
average stocks of goods consumed in
the fire were between $50,00O,00O and
$55, 100000. At this time of the year,
however, the stocks carried by mer-
chants were much heavier than the
average. AS the real estate was as
sessed at three-fourths of it's value
these figures would indicate a total
loss by reason of the fire of about $751;
10000, at the lowest figures.
