ANGER AGAINST AMERICA
Russians Show More Hatred tia
Against Great Britain.


Against Great Britain.
Special to The Journal
St. Petersburg, Feb. 27.-The tele-
graphic reports of Lord Selborne's de-
malls of alleged breaches of neutrality
by the British navy have caused a
slight revulsion of the anti-British
feeling here. s.;,s
While Great Britain is regarded as
being no friend, the Russian hatred
shown against America is many times
greater. Since the cession Of Alaska,
the Russians have steadily believed In
American friendship.
Of late, however, they claim to have
been undeceived. America has shown
herself entirely prO-Japanese, and as
this has dawned upon the Russian
mind, the change Of feeling has been
intense. Great Britain is an old enc
my, and there never was any love lost
between the two countries, but Amer
| lea was a friend who is now regarded
as having betrayed this nation.
Consequently Anericanophobia is
| in reality much more rampant than
! Anglophobia. Especially is this the
| case at the American embassy, which
is being hamDered and cramped in
every possible way:
The Bourse Gazette to-day printed
| a Washington dispatch saying that the
United States has undertaken to lay

pine islands to Japan, to prevent the

Complaint Against Commando

Special to The journal.

special TO Inc Jou1Aa1'
Washington, Feb. 27.-The Rus
sian government has discovered that
it made mistake in complaining OF
the alleged unfriendly action OF
Commander Marshall Of the, gum
boat Vicksburg, which is stationed
at Chemulpho, and is now making
explanations. The complaint was
unofficial and so are the explana-
tons.
Minister Mccormick communicated
the Russian complaint to Secretary
Hay, who asked the navy department
to request an explanation from Com
mander Marshall. A long cablegram
was received from Commander Mar
shall, in which he says he was one OF
+, the first of the foreign commanders
to send aid to the drowning sailors
and that he not only sent boats tc
rescue them, but sent medical aid as
we'll. Ills dispatch said nothing
about any protest having been sem
! learned thru another source, that nc
such protest was sent by any of the
! commanders.
This information reached st
Petersburg and unofficial assurances
were promptly made that the course
| of Commander Marshall was eminent
ly satisfactory to Russia, and tina
| there was no ground. for any com
plant. ~
| The incident, however, shows thu
anxiety of Russia to find some pre-
| text for complaining of the American
attitude. #.% T .- IL

VIEWS OF SIRATEGISTS
Japs Trying to Cut Off Russian Forces
!, .,..Y. ,s on Yalu. -.El.- d. +. RI. 60

Washington, Feb. 27.-In landing an
army at Possiet bay, south or V1adl-
vostok. japan is following a cam
paign exactly in line with the predlc-
lions of the war strategists Of the war
and navy departments, who are study
ing every move in the conflict
Recently it was stated that the war
strategists believed Japan would first
seize Seoul and then land troops near
Vladivostok. from which point they
would be able to move in any dlrec-
tion.
The strategists are in doubt as to
what the next move of Japan will be,
but thew are confident it's purpose Will
he to cut the railroad and cut off the
Russian forces in southern Manchurla,
near the Yalu, from the base at Har-
Bin. 's>.-'*. .n ~ .N% 49," --
The war experts have figured out
that it would take the Japanese army
about three weeks to 111arch thrH the
which is its objective point, according
to the press dispatches.
Kirin. is on a branch of the railroad
running from Hardin to Port Arthur,
and it is one-third of the distance
from Hardin to the end Of the line.
The line from Hardin to Vladivostok
is only seventy miles north OF Posslet
bay, and by going north to the rail-
way the Japanese could follow it to
Hardin over an easy grade. f..
The best opinion among the strate-
gists Is that the japanese will take
neither of these routes, but that they
will march southwest with all possible
speed and strike the railroad at some
unexpected point south of klrln. Ihe
Russians have a powerful army a.

experts believe the Japanese will keep
well away from Hardin until they are
ready to attack it in force.

ssaz RUSSIANS CAUTIOUS
Every Effort Made to Prevent Japs
e.. from Gripping Fleet.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 27.-The des-
perate manner in which the Japanese
are returning to the attack. of Port
Arthur, in spite Of their repeated re-
pulses. has convinced the military au-
thorities here that their main .op5ec-
tive for the present is hopelessly to
cripple the Russian fleet in order to
secure absolute freedom in the dis
embarkation of troops.
For this reason the Russian com
mander is carefully guarding against
exposing his ships, keeping them in
the harbor under the guns of the for
ti1cations.
A doubt exists as to whether the
Japanese really design to land near
Port Arthur and invest the city. The
authorities believe that the Japanese
will not hazard a landing at this stage
Of the campaign.
Owing. to the conformation of the
shores, the only suitable place fol
landing near Port Arthur is we'll with
in the range of the batteries, and if g

transports would be unable to come

EXPECTED BY. RUSSIANS --
Japanese Landing at POssiet Bay An
ticipated by AleXieff.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 27.-While the
reported landing of Japanese troops
in the southeastern corner of Siberia
has not been confirmed officially, such
an event would not surprise the min
istry Of war here.
Indeed, the Russians were advised
that the Japanese contemplated the
move now stated to have taken place.
1t was this aspect Of the campaign
that caused Admiral Alexieff's retire
ment to Hardin. ,t.E. 81
Some days ago the viceroy sent a
strong detachment of infantry to Vla-
divostok for the purpose OF heading
off the Japanese invasion along the
borderland Of Korea and Siberia.
The fact that the rnikado's tronc1ads
appear to be scattered from Port, Ar
thur to the neighborhood Of Vladi-
vostok is taken by the ministry OF
