BIG CHANGE
OF POLICY
RUSSIANS HAVE STOPPED
SEIZURE OF FOREIGN SHIPS
They Concluded the Status of yoIun-
teer Fleets Were Not Sufficiently
Established in International Law to
Warrant Their Methods.

ST. Petersburg, July a5.-Grand Duke
Alexis presided at yesterdays council
which Count Lamsdorff, the foreign
secretary, and Vice Admiral Ave1lan,
chief Of the admiralty department., and
other high naval officers attended.
The result of the conference removes
all doubts concerning the present atti-
tude Of Russia with regard to the vol
unteer fleet. The validity of the view
Expressed in the British note regarding
the irregularity Of the position Of the
vessels was so far admitted that the
council agreed to waive the right Of
search.
After a long discussion in which
Count Lamsdorff took a leading part it
was decided that the present status OF
the volunteer fleet was not sufficiently
we'll defined according to international
II law to render further searches and seiz-
Iures advisable and that therefore Rus
sia, in the interests of friendly relations
with the powers, should Withdraw the
authority given the volunteer fleet in
| this respect

RELEASE OF VESSELS
CONFIRMED in BERLIN

Berlin, July 25.-A dispatch from St.
Petersburg says that Russia, in response
to Germany's protest, sent a dispatch to
Port Said ordering the immediate re-
lease of the Hamburg-American line
steamer Scandia, which had arrived
there and was awaiting instructions.
The official report of the seizure OF
the Scandia, received from the German
consul at Suez, says that the Russian
volunteer fleet steamer Smolensk en-
Ecountered the vessel at the island OF
Perrin, in the straits of Bah FL Mem
deb, and that she was seized notwith-
standing the fact that her captain show
ed from the manifest that there was no
|contraband of war on board. Twenty
five Russian officers aud seamen were
on board the Scandia when the report
was sent, and It was the intention OF
the Russians that the passengers and q
portion Of the German crew should be
landed at Port Said.

RUSSIA AND ENGLAND
REACHED AGREEMENT

& ST. Petersburg, July 25.-The Asso-
ciated Press is able to state on the
highest authority that the Russian and
British governments have agreed on a
mutually satisfactory basis for a settle.
1nent of the question of the status of
Russian volunteer fleet steamers in the
Red Sea and seizures by them of British
ships. A few minor points still remain
unsettled, but these probably will be
cleared up soon and it is not expected
that further complications will arise.
Great credit for the satisfactory terrni-
nation Of this incident is due to For
|eign Secretary Count Lamsdorf, who,
lit is admitted, acted in the calm and
conciliatory spirit worthy Of great
statesman.
