/. London, Oct. 25.-The British gov
eminent Monday afternoon, through
Foreign Secretary Lansdcwne, sent an
urgent note OF protest to the Russian
government on the subject Of the Rus
sian .sattack on the British fishing feet
in the North sea. in which the Russian
second Pacific squadron sank one or
more British fishir:g boats and killed or
wounded several fishermen. Special
stress is laid en- the callousness dis
played by the Russians in not going to
the assistance of the fishermen. Lord
.1ansdowne asks that immediate redress
shall be made.
Cannot Brook Delay.
An soficial statement was issued by
the foreign Office in the evening, as
follows:. L.,
""Tfe foreign Office has been in COM
munieation with representatives of the
fishing industry at Hull and Grimsby
and has obtained a full statement of
the facts corrected with .Ae attack
during the night of October 81 by the
Russian second Pacific squadron upon
part Of the Hull TRAVELLING feet. Urgent
representations based on this informa-
ton have been addressed to the Rus
sian government, and it has been eX-
planned that the situation is n which
in the opinion CT his majesty's govern
ment does not admit of delay"
Believe Redress Will Be Made.
1t is belieTed in government circles
that the Russian government will take
the earliest opportunity to sive salts
faction, ard it appears to be expected
that Russia will explain the affair, add
ing that the Russian officials had eason
to believe that there were mines or
ships with mines in the neighborhood
where the fishing fleet was attacked.
An interview between Lord Lans-
downe and Count BencEendorff has
been arranged. for Tuesday. In the

Walker, Gu Sunday. ~srarting under
this, he attacked Waller. fcrccly in
his speech. lie described him as "a
black and tan serpent kissing at the

lie said it WAS the desire of the Re-

shows how he is looked upon down

"lf Parker is elected PRESIDENT" he
said, "and Booker Washington goes to

added.
