st. Petersburg Talks Peace.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 4.-Diplomatic
circles confidently expect that the
Russian answer to the Japanese pro
posals will be handed to the japanese
foreign office by Baron de Rosen, Rus
sian ambassador to Japan, within a
very few days and do not expect grave
results to follow.
In other quarters the conciliatory
attitude of both governments inspires
belief that the answer will pave the
way to further negotiations If, in.
deed, it does not directly lead to a
pacific settlement of the trouble.
The characteristic note in the press
today is the doubt about the attitude
of the United States in the event OF
war between Russia and Japan.

RockFELLER's GIFTS DECLINED

John d. Rockefeller has fallen into
disfavor with prominent Baptists in
terested in educational work through
out the country, according to promi-
nent Baptist educators in st. Louis
It is given out on good authority that
hereafter no more gifts to Baptist
theological and educational institu-
tions will be received from Rockefel.
Ter. The high moral ground is taken
that these contributions have been in
directly wruns from the poor people
of the country by the systematic ad-
vaneing of the price of oil whenever 8
giftlis made.
Many schools in the vicinity of st.
Louis have from time to time received
fgifts from Mr.. Rockefeller through
the Baptist Educational Society, the
national organization of that brancl
of Baptist work. It is announced
that the Baptist society has discon
tinued it's relations with Mr.. Rocks
fellsr and that hereafter all benefac
tions to colleges and schools througl
the educational branch of the Baptis
Church will be from others than III
Rockefeller.
Among the in stitutions that hav
received bensfastions from Mr.. RockG
fsllsr is Shurtisff College, in Upps
Alton, which has secured several ad
ditions to it's endowment fund o
condition that it be supplemented b
subscriptions aggregating four tims
the amount contributed by Mr.. Rocke
feller. Much as some of these institu
tions may need money, they prefer t
get it in some other way than throug

neat Baptist educators.
