WILL NOT GIVE UP.
Russia Will Get Ready for New Cam
paign

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, September 5.-A special
cable dispatch from London says: Assum-
ing. as practically every Englishman dees
that Russia has lost this campaign, the
question is asked: will she fight another?'
The best information goes to prove that the
governing group at st. Petersburg has al
ready answered the question In a decisive
Affirmative, and nothing hinders except the
risks of general international revolt, now
somewhat remote. Men and money will
fail Japan before they fail Russia and the
Russian position in the far east must grow
much worse before the Russian autocracy
will accept what they would regard as a
shameful peace at the hands of the de-
spised Asiatics. With the exception OF
France, which is excessively diSinclned TO
disturb the general peace, the weakening
of Russia relieves the powers of a night
mare. Great Britain ceases to fear FOR In
dia. Germany ceases to apprehend invasion
from two sides and Austria RECEIVERS her
old position of safety in the Balkans.
In the presence of the tremendous hap
penings in southern Manchuria it is nat
ural that there should be a revival of talk
of meditation or intervention. AT every
European capital, save ST. Petersburg,
more or less fanciful suggestions are now
thrown out concerning plans OF the chan
cellories to bring the war to an end before
either belligerent shall have placed the
other beneath its heel But there is prob
ably next to nothing in them. The Inde-
pendence Beige offers a hint to Germany
that seems to have stirred the Berlin Of
fetal journals. 1t wishes to know how
long Nme will elapse. IL Japan hurls Rus
sia out of Manchurian territory, secured by
lease by China. before she will undertake
the task of ejecting Germany from Kiao-
chou bay and hinterlaDG.
British opinion Is emphatic that the
