ST. PETERSBURG, July 6.-The
military critics generally take the
view that the serious military opera
tions in Southern Manchuria are over
until the rainy season has ended, and
in the meantime the japanese Will
devote themselves to the siege Of
Port Arthur. The army organ mar
vels at the lack OF decision on the
part of Generals Kuroki and Oku,
expressing the belief that this may
account for the fact that the forces
landing at Port Dalny have been
taken from places in Manchuria.
The test of the engines of the ar
mored cruiser Admiral Nakimoff on
her trial run is pronounced very sat
isfactory. The battleship Sisoiveliky
and Navarin and the armored cruis-

mends the appointment of Prince
Obolensky as Governor General of
Finland. and counsels firmness, but

PARIS, July 6.-The Parliamentary

Chartreuse charges has drawn up a
report generating Premier Combes

general of the Ministry of the Interior,

that the Premier referred before the

bribery, whereas the testimony dis
closes no incident having that gravity.
The committee will continue it's inquiry,
