Russia and England.

Tho later DISPATCHES from London do not
Indicate that the British government is
bent as yet upon such sharp course IN
the matter of the Red sea seizures by
Russian Warships as was Indicated in the
overnight reports. The ministry. 1t is
clear from todays news, is inclined to let
affairs go for the present on the basis of
diplomatic. exchanges. The outburst of
public Indignation caused by the seizure of
the p and o. steamer Malacca has not
thus far stirred the government to
avowed action. That vessel has arrived at
Port Said the northern end of the Suez
canal. and is there detained. presumably
by the canal officials 1t is not denied
that she has war munitions on board. but
1t is claimed that they are for the Brit
fish governments station at Hong Kong.
Thus a nice question arises which will
eventually bring the ministry at London
directly into the case.
The Russian contention, set forth in
dispatch from st. Petersburg today. Is
that the treaty restrictions upon the pas
sage of the Dardanelles do not bear upon
the situation today because they have
been repeatedly broken in the past by
consent of the sultan. If the British gov
eminent. Russia plainly says through the
medium of an inspired editorial in the
Russ newspaper. did not object effectively
in the past when auxiliary vessels SINH
larly went through the Dardanelles it
cannot effectively do so now. Russia thus
virtually claims the right, subject to the
sultan's permission-which seems to be
very easily obtained-to send forth her
entire Black fleet by simply putting
those vessels out of commission, hauling
down the war flag. covering the guns
with tarpaulins and clubbing them mer-
chantmen, and later hosting the imperial
ensign. taking off the tarpaulins and
showing the war front
The situation is not cleared by these
dispatches. What is Russia seeking to
accomplish? Certainly she cannot hope
materially to affect the Japanese re-
sources in the present war. She has her
hands fun with Japan If that power were
absolutely cut off from all foreign sources
OF supply She viii have her hands more
'han full If she tries to overhaul every
