TOXIC TALKING WAR
BUT NO ULTIMATUM GOES FROM
JAPAN TO RUSSIA.
RUSSIAN WARSHIPS RETURN
AND ALLAY FEARS OF CLASH
WITH THE SHIPS OF JAPAN.

Toxic Feels Some Anxiety for the
Safety of the Cruisers Japan Has
Purchased from Argentine-MOre
Russian and Italian Marines Have
Reached SeOul-General Eastern
News shows Views That WOuld
Indicate War or Peace.
London. Jan. 1.-THE reassuring
news that the Russian warships which
recently left Vladivostock have return
ed there is confirmed in Vladivostock
dispatch received as st. Petersburg.
The dispatch asserts, however, that
only the armored cruiser Gromovoe
went to sea for a couple of days prac-
tice, the other ships of the fleet hav-
ing remained at Vladivostock through
out.
Special dispatches from Toxic print
ed in this mornings newspapers are
very warlike, but add little or nothing
to the knowledge of the situation. They
reiterate that Japan has no idea of
sending an ultimatum to Russia.
Anxiety is apparently felt in Toxic
for the safety of the cruisers Niasin
and Kasaga, which left Genoa Satur-
day, and in connection with the de-
parture of which the Genoa corre-
spondent of the Daily Mail this morn
ing gives curious story to the effect
that an iron bar was found inside the
ammunition hold of the Niasin, placed
in such a position that it short-cir-
Quilted the electrical apparatus with, it
is suggested, the object of destroying
the vessel, although there is no evil
dence to show that it's being there was
rot accidental No serious damage was
done.
Seoul dispatches report the arrival
of additional Russian and Italian ma
rines there.
The Daily Nails Toxic correspondent
asserts that the negotiations between
Russia and Japan have passed beyond
diplomacy, and states that some Co
rean officials have appealed to the
American legation at Seoul for protec-
ton, but that Minister Allen upbraid-
ed them for thinking of their personal
safety at such a juncture.
A severe gale in the Mediterranean
| is greatly incommoding the Russian
warships. The cruisers Nicholas l an6
Nicholas II entered Ferro1 for safety

tanned at Suda bay since Friday. I'M

count of the weather.
Lord Ronald Shay. who returned tC
England recently from Manchuria and
Japan, confirms reports that Russian
troops are posted every five versts
along the line of the Manchurian Rail
way. The Russians. however. recog-
nize that the chief danger is in break
down of the railway under the pressure
of the enormous military traffic, owing
to its slight construction.

ATTITUDE OF RUSSIA
Toward the United States Declared
Not to Be Hostile.

Washington, Ian. 10.-By an author
ity conversant with Russias position in
the Far East and her attitude toward
American interests there. the Asso-
ciated Press to-day was given this
statement:
I'm view of the wide circulation given
reports without basis in fact, charging
Russia with hostility to American in
terests in the Far East it seems ex-
pedient that the attitude of Russia
should be again defined.
Russia has repeatedly expressed her
intention of assisting the development
of commercial interests in Manchuria.
knowing that the Chinese policy of the
United States government was guided
merely by an aim to develop trade and
not by political ambition. Russia has
shown her good faith by retaining
from any action which would endanger
the conclusion of the American Chinese
commercial treaty signed on Oct. g..
This is the open door which has been
a part of American and Russian policy
since the Boxer outrages which ne
cessitated the Intervention of the Pow
ers and which materially changed con-
ditions in Manchuria.
Russia will certainly not submit to
dictation at the hands of any Power as
to the protection of her legitimate in
terests in Manchuria. Russia is ready
and anxious to stimulate the develop
ment of foreign commerce in Manchu-
ria. The growth of trade means the
success of the Siberian Railway. Rus
STA believes, however, that this COM
mercia1 development is possible with
out the establishment of spheres of po-
litical influence in the open ports"

DOWIE TALKS TO TEXANS.
Roasted the Railroad That Gave
Him Passes.


San Antonio, Tex, Jan. 10-John
Alexander Dowie (Elijah. the Resto-
rer) and his six deacons leave to-mor-
row for San Francisco on his trip to
Australia.
He attended the opening of a hotel
at a nearby resort this morning and
entered his protest against the lavish
silver service and the stuffed pig
on the menu.
This afternoon he addressed about
5000 people in local auditorium. He
wanted to make himself clear on the
race question. The Anglo Saxon race,
he said, is superior to the negro race,
but that there was a time when the
black brother was superior to the white
and the white man should be just
to the negro and endeavor to lift him
up. Whatever the difference in race
might be on earth, the white man and
black man are brothers before God.
He found fault with the Southern
people in that they were too sleepy
and slow, not up to date, and he ridi-
culed the slow time by the railroad
whose guest he has been during the
past several days.
His only reference to the prospective
establishment of a Zion City and plan
tation on the Texas coast was con-
tanned in the statement that he might
at some near date become neigh
Dor of the people of San Antonio.

by Duke of Devonshire and Joseph
Chamberlain.

BY Duke of Devonshire and Joseph
Chamberlain.
London, Jan. 10.--An acrimonious corr
respondence between the Duke of Dew
onshire and Joseph Chamberlain is
published this morning.
The Duke, who is president OF the
Liberal Unionist Association, formed
at the time the Liberal party split on
the home rule question, wrote Mr.
Chamberlain, suggesting that the asso-
citation should dissolve, owing to the
difficulty of allocating the funds now
that the party had become divided by
the fiscal controversy. Mr.. Chamber
lain, in long rejoinder, said he
thought II best to "let sleeping dogs
le," but that IL the Duke of Devon
shire wanted to make a fiscal test ques-
ton he had best take vote OF The
members of the association and let the
defeated party retire.
The Duke replied, Directing to such
a violent disruption of the association.
and asking for a friendly discussion
of the arrangements Tor dissolution.
Mr.. Chamberlain closes the CORE
spondence by announcing that as the
Duke will not accept his views, he is
determined to call a meeting on his
own responsibility and that the course
to be pursued will be decided at this
meeting.

New York. Jan. 10.-The American
Line steamer New York, which arrived
to-day from southampton, was closely
followed by the French Line steamer
LaSavoie, ten minutes being the diff
ference of the arrival at the lightship.
Both steamers encountered terrific
gales and seas.
The New York had a particularly
severe gale from the north-northwest,
with violent squalls and high head
seas on Wednesday. Jan. 6. The ship
had slowed down in the gale to secure
some gear, when an enormous sea
curled over the bow and swept over
board F. Comulich, a seaman. A life
buoy was sent after him, and almost
instantly Second officer Keys, taking
a turn about his body with a line,
jumped into the sea after the seaman,
who in the meantime, had secured a
hold on the buoy.
Before the second officer could get
to the unfortunate man Comulich lost
his grasp on the buoy and disappear
ed. The second officer was then haul
ed on board.
The New York brought 81, O45, 900 in
specie.
LaSavoie also caught the gale of the
9Th. At II o'clock at night a huge
rolling wave of tremendous hight
swept over the bow, dashed aft with
tremendous force, smashed in the for
ward bulkhead of the smoking room
under the bridge and flooded that
compartment.
The ship was slowed down immedi-
ately. The passengers became alarm
ed at the staggering effect of the
shock. The forward bulkhead under
the bridge was smashed, causing q
hole about twelve feet across, rails
and stanchions were also bent and
broken, but no one was hurt.
Among the passengers of LaSavoit
was Santos Dumont, the aeronaut. He
says he came here to complete ar.
rangements for his forthcoming expert
ment with a dirigible balloon at the
ST. Louis Exposition.

Pekin, Jan. 10.-Predictions in the
native press that war is inevitable and

result of the mems injuries.
More serious trouble was averted by
large detachment of police charg-
ing the ferry house and fighting their
way through the combatants to stop
a squad of marines on an incoming
ferryboat from landing.
The ARRAY occurred In the white
passenger room on the Norfolk side of
the river. Just what caused the row
is not yet known, but it started sud-
denly, and in an instant there was a
general fight, in which about fifty
citizens and marines, about equally di-
vided, were engaged. One of the ma
rines, Dadden, the police charge, drew
a razor and began slashing right and
left.
Lawson Cuddy's breast is a series of
gashes, and a wide cut on the back
and side of his neck barely missed his
jugular vein.
Joe Flynns right arm is almost sew
cred at the shoulder by wound ex-
tending from his collar bone down and
around to his spine. He has other
dangerous injuries
A riot call brought detail of po-

GERMANY WILL BE NEUTRAL
II japan and Russia Finally Come

London, Jan. lott is learned by the
Associated Press on the highest au-

the event of war between Russia and
Japan that Germany will maintain a
strict neutrality, and that other MEM
bers of the Dreibund will observe a
similar attitude.
The importance of this decision. which
the Associated Press understands will
be announced almost Immediately in
some official manner in Berlin, cannot
be easily over-estimated. In a measure,
il will ensure that hostilities will be
confined to the two powers concerned,
and it will be certain to give a great
stimulus to the efforts France and
Great Britain are making in st. Peters,

of peace.
