RUSSIANS RETALIAHNG
FOR AMERICAS ALLEGED
FRIENDuNESS TO JAPAN
Orders for Goods Placed in the
United States Have Been
COuntermanded.
SEVERAL GRIEVANCES
Vicksburg Incident and the Ap-
pointment of New ConSulS
Not ReliShed.

ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 25.-The irrita-
ton against the United States on account
of supposed unfriendly attitude of that
country towards Russia, which was slight
~ noticeable throughout the negotiations,
seems to have become daily more pro-
ncunced. and, since the vicksburg incident
at Chemulpo (when the commander of this
American gunboat is said TO have refused
10 unite with the commanders OF other for
egn warships at Chemulpo to protest
against the fighting which resulted in the
loss OF the Russian warships variag and
Korietz. and the fact that the Vicksburg
did not take on board survivors of the
Russian ships) American business men here
are really alarmed concerning the possible
effect upon American trade. Within the
last few days orders for American goods
have been counter manded, the only expla-
nation given being that the prospective pur-
Chasers did not desire 10 buy American
goods under the present circumstances.
United States Consul General Watts has
been appealed 10 In the case of an Amer
lean firm which has a large contract for
school supplies, the contract having been
peremptOriIy Cancelled
Orders for the Importation of big con-
sisnment of wood pulp have also been
cOuntermanded, the intending purchaser
saying in his letter that ne could not be ex-
pected 10 do business with America after
the Vicksburg incident Mr.. Watts has
felt II 10 be his duty 10 write to the State
Department pointing out the state of pub
lie feeling here and the great prospective
damage to American trade unless measures
were taken TO allay the irritation.
Americans here believe that an official
explanation OF the Vicksburg incident
would be OppOrtune and have an excellent
effect The government officially has not
taken notice of the incident, being without
direct official advices from the far East on
the subject.
In government circles, however. it is seen
plainly that Russian suscepubilities have
been wounded and the fear is expressed
that should Washington now disregard
Russia and procure exeQuaturs for the
newly appointed American cOnsuls at Muk-
den and Antung from Picking and attempt
10 send those officials to their posts a really
unpleasant incident might be created.
Russia does not want 10 be placed in the
position OF refusing 10 allow these cOnsuls
10 enter upon their duties but, with a state
of war existing and commerce at q stand
and Russia might consider herself war
ranted in Interpreting such course on the
part of the United States TO be political
rather than commercial.
The refusal of Russia to allow Mr. Nor
gan. the newly appointed American consul
at Port Dalny to go 10 his post at present
is based solely on the military situation.
which may compel all foreigners to leave
Port Dalny.
The sincere hope is expressed that the
United States will not embarrass Russia
further by pressing the question of con-
sular representation at this time.

THE GYMNASIUM ENTERTAIN
 MENT.
Cutie a Success and Greatly Enjoyed
 By Audience.

The en,srainment at the Gymnasium on Tuesday evening was a grand sue cess. supassing in merit and enjoy ment any previous event of the same character The attendance was fairly good, but not what it should have been. Ali the stores of the city were closed in sufficient time for any one so in- clincl to attend the entertainment. The public should lend more of their pres. ence and encouragement to entertain mc1ts oi this character. not only to en- courage the many young people who worked so hard to prepare the splen- did program that was rendered. but also to show their appreciation of the magnificent building presented to the city by Mr. Cleveland H. Dodge
 Among th- features of the program rendered We mention some of the most interesting. The butterfly drill. by the cnild-en. was a most beautiful spectacle. The scene was so natural that yCu could easily imagine yourself to be in the Sunny Southland. sur rounded by real butterflies. with the splenCor of their gaudy wings dazzling before you.
 The Columbian drill was a new feature. but well received. the young ladies presenting it being especially graceful.
 The double trapeze by Burns & Ben- ten would have done credit to expert enced performers.
 The boys class on the hoEzontal bar was perhaps the most novel feature of the entertainment. Most all were novices, out the midgets, Francis Spaulding and Spencer Clawson, de serve special mention. They kept the audience In constant glee.
 The after feature was the dance. which enticed many to remain. and a most eniovable time. was the verdict of all who participated
 Let the people of Bisbee keep their eyes on the progressive features of these Gymnasium entertainments and in the fu'ure turn out and encourage the children ill their work as they should do
