Count Cassini, Russian Minister
Announces That Russia
Will Go on Fighting
WILL BROOK NO INTERVENTION
Ambassador Declares Russia Has the
Resources to Continue the Contest
Indefinitely and Can Not HonorabIy
Give Up Until tho Japanese Have
Been Conquered.

Washington, Nov. 15.-"Russia Will
pursue the war in the far east to the
bitter end. that is, until Russia has
conquered"
These are the opening words of an
emphatic statement made at the Rus
sian embassy yesterday by Count cas-
SIM. the Russ an ambassador.
Several times recently the ambassa-
DOR. In the name CT his government, has
categoIical,y denied the possibility OF
any intervention in the war, but the
recurrence OF rnnors that the powers
contemplated mediation has caused the
ambassador to reiterate on behalf of
his government its position regarding
Intervention or mediation Of any kind.
The statement continues: II deem 1t
my duty reiterate what l have so
often said, that Russia will not sus-
pend in any case her military opera
tons In the far east All rumors and
reports regarding the possible success
of the direct overtures for peace which
Japan is said to have made TO Russia
and regarding the mediation of the
powers, In my opinion, are started for
the purpose Of convincing the public
that the end of the war is close at hand,
In this way it Is hoped that the public
may be led to believe that Japanese
loans offer attractive investments.
Russia can no more admit Of inter-
ference than Great Britain can In the
Transvaal; than could the United Stat
es in her war with Spain. Where the
prestige Of q country Is at stake, all
other considerations are, and must be
put aside. Some people may think that
fiscal difficulties will influence Russia
to end hostilities.
"Such an opinion is based on the
false assumption Of Russia's fiscal re-
sources. There is no doubt whatever
that Russia, whose annual income ex
ceeds one million dollars, cannot be
influenced in her attitude toward the
outcome Of the war by the amount of
war expenditures. Is it not altogether
out of the question that Russia, who
did not expect war. should in the mo-
ment when she had mobilized her ar
my and Is sending corps after corps in
fighting readiness to the far east, sud-
denly call halt on hostilities. partic-
ularly after she has for nearly a year,
without any difficulty or recourse to
extraordinary measures, been able to
carry all the extra expenses?
ut is not within my scope to COM
ment upon the new Japanese loan.
That is an affair for the bankers and
for the public who are able to decide
what advantages or disadvantages the
investment offers. But there can be
no necessity for commenting upon
Russia's credit. Anyone acquainted
with the Paris exchange is able to con-
vince himself Of the solidity Of Rus
sia's finances"

ress The rropol ton of this business
rs Compared with that which is carrie
on between the states Is very small.
Mhut we now reed more than any
other thing Is that some tribunal Of
the general government, having au-
thority turnout the length and breadth
of the land. shall be invested with the
power to supervise and revise and re-
create rates established by the railways
for Interstate commerce. The time has
passed in which the expediency of ex-
ercising this power can be successfully
controverted. The railways have a
right to full compensation for the SER
vices they render but they have no
right to assume or assert that rates
made for them by the government will
be less than compensatory. They must,
as we all must, depend upon the justice
of the laws and the integrity with
which they are enforced.
II recognize the difficulty Of the un-
dertaking. but in these days govern
ments must undertake difficult things.
and If they cannot successfully per-
form them, then government is fall
ure, and we must try some other plan
for the protection Of society. I do not
doubt that now and then injustice
would be done by the tribunal to which
this power Is granted to railway own
ers. but injustice is now and then done
to all men. believe, however, that
less injustice would be done than is
now inflicted by the railways guided
only by their own desires.
~ trust. therefore, that this associa-
ton will bear in mind that 1t is work
ing upon a great problem. I shall moi
expect when you succeed, as hope and
trust you may succeed, in opening up
this waterway to the commerce of the
country, the competition which will

pect to see the problem made easier
