found yesterday at Warren Point, some

DIPLOMATS ANXIOUS.
Lively Interest Felt I'm Result of Rus
sian Intrusion.


st. Petersburg. July 1.-THE news
that the Russian volunteer steamships
Smolensk and St. Petersburg, now
cruising IN the Red Sea, are stopping
ships OF Neutral nations and searching
them for contraband of war. is causing
the liveliest interest in all circles.
Russia has evidently weighed the
question and believes herself to be
within her rights and neither fears nor
anticipates International complications
Some of the powers, indeed may have
been sounded by Russia on the sub
ject. Nevertheless. foreign opinion is
awaited eagerly and more or less crit
tcism is expected.
Members of the diplomatic corps are
keenly anxious to ascertain the views
their governments will take of the
passage through the Dardanelles of
these vessels of the volunteer fleet as
merchantmen and their subsequent con-
version into ships of war.
The general view in diplomatic cir
cles even where sentiment is not par
ticuiarly friendly to Russia, is that
while the passage of the DarnanelIes
might be considered a piece of sharp
practice on the part of Russia, ii Is an
accomplished fact and the powers will
not now regard it as a violation of the
treaty of Paris, but will guard against
its repetition. The diplomats think
that some of the powers might insist
that henceforth all volunteer vessels
shall be considered as warships within
the meaning of the treaty.
One of the most interesting questions
in this connection, the diplomats be-
lieve, will rise out of Russia's declar-
alton that coal is contraband of war
With prize crews on board the cap
tured ships could be sent to Russian
Baltic ports. but If short of coal they
could not put in at neutral ports to
relinquish their bunkers. This same
question may embarrass Russia when
the Baltic squadron sails for the Far
East.
In view of the protest by Germany
made in the case of the stoppage of
the steamer Bundesrath (seized in Del
agoa Bay, December %. 1890 during
the South African war as the result of
which Great Britain had to pay
charges. much curiosity exists as to
what Germany will do in the case of
the considerations by the Smolensk of
the mailsacks on board the North Ger
man Lloyd steamer rince Heinrich, es-
pecially as a large portion of the mails
seized were undoubtedly of a CONNER
cial character.

Chicago, July l7.--There was little.
IL any. change In the situation in the
strike OF the meat butchers hare to-
day.
With Mtohael Donnelly, the strike
leader. In st. Louis looking after that
end Of the difficulty, there was no ef-
fort here today to renew the peace me-
gotiations, which lasted through
three days last week. and were termin-
ated last night without results. wheth-
er another attempt to reach an adjusts
ment by arbitration will be made IL
problematic, as the packers. believing
they had the better of the argument
In last weeks conferences, are little
Inclined to offer any concessions to the
strikers. Z
One thing is certain. the packers say.
and that is they will not recede from
the position they assumed in last
wesk's differences. and that the strik-
ers will have to conform to the ems
ployers' ultimatum before any further
peace plans looking to q settlements
by arbitration will be successful 70
add to the packers determination to
stand firm Is the fact that they have
steadily Increased their working forces
at the plants by the employment OF
outside workmen, until today II was
said that things would be In almost
normal condition at several Of the
plants.
Under these conditions the packers
have assumed a more independent at
titude and are more determined than
ever that they and not the strikers
shall dictate the terms on which tho
controversy shall be arbitratsd. Az
the strikers declare that they conceded
every point possible In last weeks me-
gotiations. there is little likelihood
that any further conferences for the
present at least would amount to much
toward a satisfactory settlement OF tho
strike.
The sticking point to the whole ques-
tion of arbitration Is the reinstatemenr
of the strikers. Mr. Donneliy, at yes-
terday's conference, with the packers.
viewed every other demand he had
made and agreed TO order the men back
to work. leaving the adjustment of all
difference to arbitration. II the emf
ployers would take back ali the strik-
ers in a body.
This the packers refused to do, main-
tanning that they had hired many new
workmen since the strike. whom they
could not discharge They promised.

as rapidly as possible and in the order
in which their applications were fled.
The union officials declare that they

they say 1t would mean the disruption
