 Becoming Closely Allied With Japan

Berlin. Jan. 15.-That Russia has applied to Turkey for permission tO send her Black Sea fleet through the Dardanelles is confirmed authori ative- ly here, and it Is also asserted that Russia will renew the application and press for Turkish consent
 The German attitude, as at the ;ir,e four unarmed Russian torpedo bont destroyers passed through the straits. September, 1902 is that of no concern in the matter.
 The British government is believed here to have identified itself 'aore fully, week by week. with the JapGnese position, until noW Great Britain Is almost as deeply committed as Japan. The position in which Great Britain now stands, according to the vie@ taken of the situation here. brought about by public opinion, and by the feeling that Russia would yield if oply a firm attitude were shown. has inn pressed the Russian statesmen. Th,. readiness with which the United States associated herself with Japan in press ing for the signature of the commercial treaties with China is another fact contributory to the feeling in St Petersburg that this is not the moment io HSht' AhS uSNiSiOli iOA NsiA pi SN'' now rests with the cZars advisers, ap | symptoms are visible here that the de cision will be peace by largely admiJt ing Japan's demands.
 The views of British editors. partial ly derived from the foreign office in London. are looked upon here not only as significant. but, as also being part of great diplomatic .;ama against Russia, and in that sense are some what discounted. The skill Japan has shown throughout the negotiations eX- cites admiration at the German foreign office.
 Tie Japanese reply delivered at st. Petersburg today by Minister kurinp is considered as offering Russia a way out of 'he difficulty without loss Of prestige.

MACHEN SCORED A POINT
He Demanded Documentary Evidence
 of a Conspiracy.

Washington. Jan. 15.-In the trial to- day of Machen, the Croft brothers and pr. and Mrs. Lorenz, charged with con- spiracy to defraud the government, the defense scored an important point with respect to the character of the evi- dence to, be introduced at this time by the government.
 Tine defense insisted that the govern ment had not brought forward any document or evidence showing the ex- istence of a conspiracy to defraud the government and that which was being offered naturally should follow the evil dence of conspiracy so as specifically to connect the defendants with the various transactions which have been referred to. The court sustained the point.
