RUSSIA ENDS THE CRISIS
The War Vessels Docked al Shang.
aai Ordered to Disarm.
CAR YIELDS TO BRITISH HINT

After Reaching a Very Grave Crisis
the Vessels which Escaped III Jap.
Rnese Fleet and Put in at Shanghai
Have Been Ordered to Disarm Until
the Close OF HostiIities.
Washington, d. C.-The belief of the
officers of the State Department that
the situation at Shanghai, China,
which reached the acute stage some
thine ago through the refusal of the
Russian Consul General to comply
with the orders of the Taotai of Shang-
hal that the Russian warships now re.
pairing at that port either leave OF dis
ARM, would ultimately work out its
W solution, has been borne out by
the official advices from United States
Consult General Goodnow, received at
the State Department. Mr.. Goodnow
says that the Russian Consult General
has notified the Taotai that the Rus
sian vessels, the Askold and the Gro
sovoi, will Immediately disarm in COM
pliance with the demand previously
received.
This action iS not unexpected, al
though it was not believed that the de-
cision of the Russion Government
would be announced quite so soon.
Through the extension Of time grant
ed the Russian vessels by the Wal
wupu, or Foreign Office, the Askold
and Grosovoi obtained some days lee
way to leave the port or disarm. 1t
is believed here, however, from the
meagre information in possession of
the State Department, that the sugges-
ton of the British Consul at Shanghai
to the dock company at whose yard
the cruiser Askold was undergoing re.
pairs, and which is owned by English
capital, that work on the vessel be
Immediately stopped, had something to
do with the early announcement of the
Russian decision.
1t is considered probable by officers
here that the dock company took the
suggestion Of the British Consul to
heart and refused to proceed with the
repairs to the Russian cruisers. In
this event Russia, of course, would
recognize that nothing could be gained
by a -postponement of her decision,
particularly as each day of delay made
the situation more grave, and conse-
quentiy announced that the vessels
would disarm entirely and remain at
the port until the close of hostilities.
AS it is, the Japanese will probably
advance the claim that the Russian
vessels which sought refuge in Shang-
hal i'll an unserviceable condition be-
long to her by right, but this conten-
ton, which it is believed will result
unfavorably to the Japanese, can be
decided in good time.
Officers of the State Department are
much encouraged at the clearing away
of n Of the blacklist clouds that have.
hung over China since the advance on
Pekin by the Allies in 1900, and
which for a time seemed to threaten
the neutrality and even the integrity
OF the Flowery Kingdom.

ADJUSTMENTS

Lottie Blair Parker, the author of
Under Southern Skies and
"Way Down East" might be called
a srevivalist' playwright, inasmuch
as the success of both these dramas
has been followed by rural New
England and Southern Life. The
field of rustic New England drama
was popularity supposed to have been
exhausted, as far as financial returns
were concerned, by "Shore Acres
and 1.-THE Old Homestead and in
terest in plays of southern life was
considered worn threadbare by "AE
abama,' 'Held by the Enemy
Shenandoah and "Secret Service"
To the surprise of everyone, "Way
Down East leaped at once into a
popularity that has not been exceed
ed by either "The Old Homestead"
or ashore Acres" No sooner was
the success of "Way Down East
assured than score of playwrights
rushed to the front with plays of
New England rural life. Many of
them We're received with favor-one
notable instance was revival of a
New England play which had been
produced with a fine cast and had
met with failure before the produc-
ton of "Way Down East after
wards, this same play was revived
and with success. 1t would seem al
most as if "Way Down East re-
created public interest in New Eng
land rural drama. The same thing
seems to be repeating itself in re-
gard to "Under Southern Skies. -
For some years the south had been
almost abandoned as a field for
drama when Mrs. Parker launched
"Under Southern Sllies,'' play of
southern life so original in treat
ment and so intensely interesting
that it was at once accepted by the
press and public of New York City
and has been pronounced the most
diverting and unhackneyed play Of
southern life ever written. The play
has now entered upon its fourth
successful season and promises to
live as long and as prosperously as
"Way Down East AS in the case
of the latter play, "Under Southern
Skies has caused revival of
Southern plays. No less than four
plays dealing with southern subjects
having been produced within the
past year and announcements are
made of others still to follow. None,
however. up to the present writing
approach i'll charm on popularity
forerunner. ''Under Southern Skies
This wonderfully successful play
will be seen here at the Gennett
Theatre on Wednesday evening, Nov.
