Slav War Party Hot.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 1T is many
a year since the Russian limoges
were in such a fit of temper as they
are at present. They are furious
against England and almost equally
enraged against France. They &C
cuse the government of treason TO
pan-Slavist traditions and hopes and
aver that unless change is lntro-
duced in the national policy Russia
will become a prey to popular caprice
and dissolve into impotent factions.
They assert that England has given
Russia ample reason to refuse con-
cessions looking to peace and to De
gin a. campaign against the powers
accessible possessions and unWar-
rantable pretensions."
Svet Hits France and Britain.
General Komoroff, editor OF the
warlike bue uninfiuential Svet, scorn-
fully impugns Frances sense Of obl1-
cation to Russia under the dual ALL
ance and charges England openly
with aiding Japan to continue the
war. 1t is recognized in the sanest
quarters here that to the fact that
France possesses radical caDlneC
may be largely credited the main
tenance of Anglo-Russian peace. II
a reactionary, antidemocratic regime
existed in Paris the Russian war
party would certainly have won the
support of France in it's refusal to
conciliate England and a rupture
would have been inevitable.
All decent Russians, while ashamed
of the North sea performance and in
RIGHTEOUSNESS of Admiral Rojest-
vensky's narrative condemn as an
outrage and crime the wild and men
dacious allegations of a section OF
the British press at the moment when
peace and war are trembling in the
balance.
Edward Eager for Peace.
London, Nov. 2.-Europe's steps to-
ward lasting peace must not be re-
traced That summarizes King Ed
wards attitude toward the Anglo
Russian crisis. He spoke in this
vein to Mr.. Balfour the hour the
czar's message arrived dissociating
the Russian government from all
wish to injure or offend England and
proffering assurances of reparation
for whatever wrong the Baltic fleet
might have inflicted On British sub
jects. The king repeated his in
junction on every possible occasion
during the excitement, although seem
ing to be idly following the races at
Newmarket.
His majesty has been severely criti-
cised for frequenting the racetrack
while the Hull fishing community
was mourning and while Europe was
presumably on the verge of war. AS
a matter of fact, the kings interest
in the races was only feigned for the
purpose of exercising a calming ef
feet on the country. He advised ev
cry detail of the negotiations and
used his great influence to prevent ir-
ritation.
1T is again limited in home quarters
that Edward is inclined to more posi-
tive methods than his constitutional
status warrants, but an overwhelming
majority welcomes his interest in pub
lie affairs. The king himself is SO
devoted to the ideal of international
concord and so deeply persuaded that
the glory Of his own reign is bound
up in that ideal that he means to ex
| haust every resource to insure it's tri
Umph regardless of the opinions OF
constitutional pedants.

Daily Exchange Letter.
Heavy liquidation of December
wheat caused heavy loss Of over a
cent in the price of that delivery. The
selling was a result of easier cables,
enormous shipments from Russia and
a liberal movement in the northwest.
The execution of numerous stop loss
orders added to the general weakness.
The market was extremely weak the
entire session, the lack of demand for
the cash article being a potent influ.
ence on speculative trade
Weakness of wheat and excellent
weather conditions were the main in
fluences contributing to an easier
corn market. There was no great SELL
ing pressure, the volume of business
being light.
The feature of trade in oats was
moderate selling by cash houses.
Sentiment was inclined to weakness in
sympathy with other grains.
Liberal receipts Of hogs and lower
prices at the yards caused an easier
tone in provisions. Trading was ex-
ceedingly quiet.

Appleton Wins Point.

Appleton-The city of Appleton has
won point against the Appleton
Water Works company. In the Win
nebago county court, an injunction
was refused the water works COM
pany restraining the city from con-
structing the Mason street sewer,
which is to empty into the river just
above the intake pipe of the water
works plant. The court stated that
it would be impossible to make the
injunction permanent, as city had a
right to construct a sewer anywhere
it pleased. Work was resumed on
the sewer yesterday morning. When
the city constructs it's own plant the
intake will be above the place where
the sewer empties into the river.

Did Not Know the Facts.

The public was not in possession OF
information cabled by the Associated
Press to the United States that only
the officers concerned in the firing on
the British trawlers would be detached
and jumped at the conclusion that
Russia had broken faith by not detain-
ing the vessels involved in the affair.
On top of this came wild reports OF
tremendous activity at Gibraltar and
the climax was reached with the an
nouncement of the British feet had
cleared for action. The reassuring in
formation available in the United
States that the sailing of the Baltic
squadron from Vigo was with the
knowledge of and agreeable to the
British government was not even hint,
ed at by the papers here.

Discussing Commission.

At the moment of all this excite
ment the Russian ambassador was dis
GUESSING with Lord LansdoWne the per
sonnet of international commission:
but it was popularity rumored that he
had received an ultimatum. Officials
of the navy department were also in
conference andi was limited that they
were planning the first stroke of the
conference and it was limited that they
were considering names suggested foh
the international commission. 1t was
then that the foreign Office adopted the
unusual course and issued statement
of facts which it was hoped would al
lay the public excitement.
Both the Russian embassy and the
foreign Office affirm that the negotfa-
lions yesterday were entirely confined
to the selection of the international
commission, to which no hitch has oc-
Cured.

Late Story Of Incident.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 2.-The four
officers detached from the Baltic
squadron to testify regarding the
North sea affair are expected to reach
st. Petersburg in two days. 1t is
hoped they will be able to throw clear
light upon this mysterious incident.
From a. reliable source the Associated
Press learns that the circumstances
of the firing as detailed by the Rus
sian officers closely resemble the
facts reported by the admiral of the
fishing fleet. When abreast of the
trawlers the Russian squadron was
formed in two divisions, the cruisers
steaming east and the battleships
west, the latter getting among the
fishing fleet and opening fire when
nearly clear of the fishing craft, which
were heading toward the battleships,
some Russian shells flew over the
trawlers and struck the cruisers, one
of which, the Aurora was hit several
times and some of her men were
wounded, including priest who
died. The transport Anatol appar-
emily became tangled among the
tTawlers, which she mistook for tor
pedo boats and signalled for aid,
thereby leading the officers of the bat
tleships to believe the trawlers were
attacking the Anatol. This, coupled
with the appearance Of two mysterl-
Gus torpedoboats steamihg towards
the battleship, resulted in the fatal
cannOnade.
Official Quietus.
London, Nov. 2.-The foreign office
put a quietus on the alarmist rumors
concerning the Anglo-Russian situa-
ton, when, after day of intense ex-
element, it issued the following:
Before the Russian fleet left Vigo
instructions were given the Russian
admiral with a view to preventing in
jury Or inconvenience to neutral ship
ping during the passage of the Rus
sian fleet to the far east. In complt-
ance with Russia's engagement four
Russian officers have been left behind
at Vigo. The two governments are
now discussing terms with reference
to the international commission which
will be entrusted with the proposed in
quiry."
Aside from the above statement all
departments decline to give out any
thing bearing on the situation.
