St. Petersburg, Feb. 1.-THE Official
Messenger contains the following SUI
preme manifesto:
by the grace Of God, we, Nicholas
H., emperor and autocrat of all the
Russias, etc, make known TO all our
loyal subjects,
"In our solicitude for the mainte-
nance of peace We made every exer-
ton to consolidate tranquility in the
Far East In these peaceful aims we
signfied assent TO the proposals or
the Japanese government TO revise
agreements regarding Korean analrs
existing between the two governments.
However, the negotiations begun upon
this subject were not brought TO a
conclusion and Japan, without await
ing the receipt or the last responsive
proposals of our government, declared
the negotiations broken off and diplo-
matte relations with Russia dissolved.
Without advising us OF the fact
that the breach of such relations would
in itself mean an opening Of warllke
operations the Japanese government
gave orders to its torpedo boats TO
suddenly attack our squadron standing
i'm the outer harbor of the fortress OF
Port Arthur. Upon receiving reports
from the viceroy in the Far East about
this we Immediately commanded him
to answer the Japanese challenge with
armed force.
Making known this, our decision,
we, with unshaken faith in the Al
mighty and with a firm expectation OF
and reliance upon the unanimous will
ingness of all our loyal subjects to
stand with us in defense OF the father
land, ask Gods blessing upon our
stalwart land and naval forces"
