St. ePtersburg. Feb 1S- Russias re- ply to Secretary Hays note on China probably will be made in few days. IL will acquiesce in principle, but with certain reservations regarding Chinese administrative control over the region in Manehur;a leased to Russia or GOV cred by the Chinese Eastern railroad in order to safeguard existing Russian interests When the note was sent 10 the powers the authorities here were uudenably disposed to view ii with suspicion. asd therefore is reception by the other cabinets was awaited with keen interest. As the Russian au thorities have obtained the views of European chancellories and have seen the friendly reception given to the note, even by Russias ally the fear that it might contain a hidden pitfall for Russia began to disappear.
 Decides to Give Adherence.
 The Russian authorities have now been made acquainted with the replies of the remaining powers including that of Japan, and il has now practically been decided to give adherence in prin- ciple Russia explained that she was as anxious as the other powers to pre- vent disorders in China and to preserve its integrity, but that owing to Russia's special interests in Manchuria, difficult ties are presented Her railroad must be protected and Russia will make a reservation on this point The govern ment does not desire her position in this respect to be misunderstood here after, and for this reason her words will be explicit and not equivocal
 The Question of Attaches.
 Russia has not yet given permission for any military attaches to join the Russian army in the field Requests have been received from all the powers. including the United States, and it is understood that Niceroy Alexieff, to whom the question was referred would prefer that the attaches should not join in the Russian field operations un- til March. explaining that owing to the unexpected audiences of the out break Of hostilities it is difficult to make arrangements for their comforta- hle accommodation, especially during the severe weather until that time

SLEEVES OF THE FUTURE.
Will Bc of Two Kinds and One May Wear Whichever Is the More
 Suitable.

Sleeves will be of two kinds, said modiste, according to the Brooklyn Eagle, "open and closed. One will be about as fashionable as the other, and it will be question purely of choice. You can have the bell, which is flaring at the elbow and which is 10 be worn over an undersleeye. Or you can have the great melon-shaped sleeve, which is caught in under a narrow cuff al the wrist. For my part l prefer the elbow bell as dressier.
 If you want 10 finish your sleeves in very fine fashion, continued the mod iste, "cut them off al the elbow let them out in full bell and finish the bell with a white cotton fringe. Above the fringe sew a flat band of white silk ribbon, or white washable satin.
 There is another way to finish your bell sleeve which should be only lit tie longer than the elbow Take it and finish it in points and under each point set longer point of lace. Between the points hang two white silk balls This makes very dressy finish for the sleeves.
 And yet another elbow finish is that of the Victorian ruifies. which consist of three ruflles all the same length. caught on the inside of the sleeve, and arranged so as 10 hang down. all of equal length. over the undersleeye
 But these are only a few of the many styles of new sleeves Just at this moment the prettiest sleeve is the cloth sleeve, with cap of some con trasting color. This is put on in the shape of an epaulette and the end is continued right on down to the very cuff
 Tt keeps dressmakers awake nights keeping track of all the new sleeves. but 1t is pretty business and We like it ." and the modiste picked up pair of sleeves which looked suspiciously like lamp shades and proceeded 10 sew them into the armhole of pale blue lawn.
