Way Tending to Promote Much Better
Understanding.

Genced and are not likely to assume
any definite phase in the near future
Both King Edwards personal action
and the step taken by Lansdowne are
due to a great degree to the untirins
solicitation OF Queen Alexandra, who
has been greatly distressed over the
war which has involved her Russian
relatives and Great Britain's ally.
Diplomats accredited to the court
of St James express surprise at the
fact that Lansdownc has gone so far
as he has. II was believed. especial
ly in German quarters. that the sug.
gesteI negotiations lived only in the
Imagination Of the press and that the
authorities At 81. Petersburg and Lon.
don tacitly sanctioned the fallacy in
the hope Of reconciling the British
and Russian public
That Lord LansdOwne has taken
such an initiative while Great Brit.
aims ally is still at war with Russia
Is regarded as being q somewhat bold
and unexpected step.

LONDON. April 10.-The Associated
Press learns the exact status of the
much fOrecasted Anglo-Russian TN.
Outstanding is as follows: after
King Edward had given his personal
assurances to Emperor Nicholas that
the ant.Russian comments in the
British press did not represent the
feeling Of his government, Foreign
Secretary IansGowne informed the
Russian ambassador that he would be
glad to reopen negotiations looking
to settlement of all matters now in
dispute between Russia and Great
Britain. Eansdownc did not stipulate
any basis or enter into any details.
Ambassador BeaEendorff Transmitted
the effect to St Petersburg when
Lansdowne's action is understood to
have taken as a material expression
of King Edwards personal message"

Washington, March I2.-It is a wo-

Its members being a propaganda
when the apostle was elected to the
senate. They wrote to every wo-
mans club and association In the
United States.
A full presentation OF the case was
made. Women were appealed to. 1t
was stated that the leaders of the Nor
mon church were still living opely in
polygamy. notwithstanding the Ed
munds law and the proclamation of II
mer Pres. Woodruff. They protested
their intention of proving it, and
asked women everywhere to take up
the subject.
The matter was responded to as a
call to arms, and in almost every
church in the country meetings have
been held to raise funds and further
the cause. It is much more general
than was the agitation against Brig
ham II, Roberts, which resulted in his
exclusion from the house OF represen-
tatives, and it is felt that this is a
case which will for once and all define
the status of the Mormon church to.
