About to Start East.

Kharkoff May 11.-Emperor Nicholas's long
Journey has stirred the patriotism of the people

and crowded with cheering people.
Whenever the Emperor glanced from his car
window he looked into the faces OF troops. After

OF camphres. He literally passed between a
double hedgerow of soldiers. Far and near
peasants gathered at the cross roads. some hold
ing their places for twenty-four hours to catch
a glimpse Of their soveregns train.
The Emperor came here this afternoon and
reviewed an entire division. The field artillery
and machine guns did not take part. His maj
esty called all the commanding officers down to
the captains around him, and talked to them OF
the great interests at stake. arousing the great
est enthusiasm. Then again he passed before
;he men, stopping his horse at every few PAGES
and speaking to them Of their duty. His words
evoked cheer on cheer and shouts or I'VE viii
do the best we can for your majesty" the ma
iority of the soldiers making the sign of the
cross they said this.
In the mean time the crowd became so frantic
that il broke through the lines and rushed pell-
nell across the field The Emperor forbade the
police to interfere.
After the review the Emperor drove through
the nag decked streets of the city to the Cathe-
dral of Saints, Peter and Paul, where he prayed
for the victory OF the Russian arms. At 4
O'Clock he departed for Poltava, where to-mor-
row at the foot of a column reared to COM
n,emorate Peter the Greats success in turning
hack the Swedes he will review another division

CLINGS TO PORT ARTHUR.
AIerief Won't Agree to Kuropat-
hin's Wish for Abandonment.

Paris. May IA dispatch 10 the Temps"
from Vienna says information received there
shows that the conflict between Viceroy Alexief
and General Kuropatkin is acute. The latter
attributes the Russian defeat at the Yalu to
Alexien's orders countermandng instructions he
had previously given.
Kuropatkn according to the Temps dis
patch, proposes the abandonment Of Port
Arthur, the junction Of its forces with his army
and the retirement OF the united forces to Har-
bin, maintaining that the present Russian force
is not sufficient TO cope with the japanese.
Alexien holds this course to be foolish. as To
abandon Port Arthur would mean the loss OF
the fleet the suffering of moral defeat and the
risk OF the determination Of the Port Arthur
force while 1t would be seeking 10 join Kuro-

Russians Doubt Ability Of Force to

St. Petersburg. May 1.-THE reports Of the
appearance of considerable bodies Of the enemy
in the northwest section Of Manchuria cause
the general staff TO believe that the japanese
intend TO make an attempt To stop General
Kuropatkin's retreat northward while the main
japanese force is hurled against LiaO-Yang and
Moukden. This plan would have good chance
OF success If the japanese had sufficient
strength but the authorities hare are convinced
that the invaders are too weak 10 carry IL out.
As further showing that Kuropatkin never
had any intention attempt 10 stop the north
ward advance Of the Japanese. a railroad en-
gineer who has just arrived here frofm the Far
East quoted to-day as saying that when
he talked with the commander in chief in Feb

ZASS4LTTCH RELIEVED.
Count Keller to Succeed Him-NO
attendant Disgrace.

St Petersburg May LIT is announced to-
night that Northumberland Zassalitch has
been relieved from the command Of the Second
Siberian Army Division. and that Lieutenant
General Count Keller, former Governor OF Ekat-
erinoslav. has been appointed TO succeed him.
Since the battle of the Yalu il has been pre-
dicted that General Zassalitch would not long
retain his command. but there has been no dis
position to act hastily. The Emperor's advisers
could not forget that while General Zassalitch
did not carry out orders, he had displayed "a
stubborn resistance which showed TO the world
that the Russians had not lost their courageous
spirit
1t is emphatically stated that there is no in
tention TO disgrace the general. and that If he
returns from the Far East it will be on sick
leave and at mis- own request. It is generally
believed that he will find it convenient 10 make
such application.
Lieutenant-General Count Keller recently re-
signed the Governorship Of Ekaterinoslav in or
der 10 go TO the front. He is a far ADLER soldier
than an administrator and is younger than Cen
eral Zassalitch, being only ffty-four. He took
part in three campaigns in the Turkish war. In
1887 he commanded the Imperial Rife Regiment
and later was director of the Corps Of Imperial
Pages. by which he came into close contact with
the members Of the imperial family. with whom
he is popular. He is considered TO be a fine
Etrategist and the possessor of cool judgment.
