RUSSIAN VLADlVOSTOCk FLEET
THREATENS JAPANESE PORTS

Toxic. July 25. I p. m.-The acts OF

and Of the volunteer feet In the Red
sea strengthen the belief here that Rus
sia Ia deliberately seeking to afiront
America. England and Germany In the
hope of finding an avenue for gracefully
retiring from disastrous war. There
is no argument over the right Of Rus
sia to seize neutral vessels carrying act
ual contraband OF war. but the wisdom
OF destroying neutral prizes without
trial. unless the object is to involve
other powers. Is generally questioned.
II IL believed that America will refuse
to recognize Russin's extended list OF
contraband. and will speedily demand a
Limitation to articles reasonably con-
traband In order to protect her large
Oriental commercial interests. 1t is ex-
pected that Great Britain will protest
against the sinking OF the knight
Commander and demand trial for seized
British steamers. and that Germany
will make second and more vigorous
protest.
Tho Vladivostok warships are how
ering about the course of the steam
ers from San Francisco. probably with
the hope OF overhauling the liner ko-
rea.
Warning. however. has been given
to the Korea. and she has chance of
eluding the Russians. There will prob

Returning TO ,h. Country.

We have all become familiar in r.

The city has absorbed tho country.
that urban life. with i;s peculiar at.
fractions and Industrial opportunities.
has drawn heavily upon rural life.
leaving large areas that were once
peopied with q thrifty farming class
practically tcnan,less and dcsolate.
A late census bulletin. however.
shows that reaction has been Ia
progress during the past ten years.
the effect of which has been TO return
city and suburban population TO Its
proper balance. According 20 this
evidence l5e towns. centers OF sub.
urban communities. show an increase
Of - per cent in ten years. This IL
about the average increase OF tho
whole country. The gain in popula.
ton OF cities between 1850 and 1890
was per cent. During tho decade
following Il dropped TO rs per cent
This indicates that increase in the
