WAVES THE RIGHT.
Power to Search Vessels Has Been
Withdrawn.

Wlh1uIdWils
st. Petersburg; Grand Duke Alexis
presided at Sundays council, which
Count Lamsdorf, the foreign secreta-
ry, and vive Admiral Avellan, chief OF
the admiralty department, and other
high naval authorities attended The
result Of the conferences removes all
doubts concerning the present attitude
of Russia with regard to the volunteer
feet The validity of the view ex-
pressed 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 long discussion, in which
Count Lamsdorff took leading part,
it was decided that the present status
of the volunteer feet was not sufh-
GENTLY well defined according to in
ternatlonal law to render further
searches and seizures advisable, and
that therefore Russia in the interest of
friendly negotiations with the powers
should withdraw the authority given
the volunteer fleet in this respect.
